Many of the communities along 30A are continuing to expand, so many more individuals can come enjoy the crystal blue waters of the Panhandle. Unfortunately, a side effect of this is construction and all the items that come along with it, such as noise, road blocks, etc. We understand this can be inconvenient for our guests, which is why we have chosen to make all possible guests aware of the possibility of this during their beach vacation. As most of this is outside of 30A Cottages realm of control, we are not able to offer discounts/compensation for any noise complaints, road blockades, etc. during a guest's stay. Please reach out to a team member with any questions you may have!

Great House and Location!
We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Dreams! We stayed with another family, had 4 kids under 4, and had plenty of room. The house was kid friendly, but note that one of the bunk rooms was pretty high and probably better for older kids. The house was in a perfect location to the community pool, beach, and town center! We had some issues with the fire alarm/front alarm, but property management was great at communicating and coming over in a timely manner to fix. Would definitely stay again!

Amazing HOME away from HOME
This property was AWESOME! We come every summer to the same neighborhood and love trying new houses !It was so nice to be provided bikes when we arrived. That saved us a lot of money . The nature trail was just behind us and just a bike ride away from all the entertainment. The house was clean and the property manager responded immediately with the few questions we had! We will return !

Great house for families. The pool area was great for younger children. Walking distance to a ton of shops and restaurants. The tram was also very helpful. Beach access was hard. Lots of people in a small area, but public beach access about 1 mile away.

We loved the house & property. Everything was very organized & clean. Our only problem was no beach chairs at the pool& & no room at the beach. It was overcrowded & had to rent expensive chairs to sit down.

Beautiful home as pictured! Need to service first floor master bedroom air conditioner. It seems it only works with movement which does not happen when sleeping. Not good! Seacrest check in at 6:00 pm is unreasonable! Although I received an early check in as requested but was not in area due to 6:00 or after posted check in.

Birthday Celebration
I rented this beautiful home for ten days to celebrate my 60th birthday with family and friends. This was my first time visiting 30A and Seacrest and I absolutely loved it. Sadly, our stay was cut short (only got four days in) before we had to leave due to Hurricane Helene. The house was beautiful and the neighborhood was amazing! Loved the tram access to the amazing lagoon pool, beach, and shopping. We will definitely be back, and will book this house again!

Gorgeous but filthy. No help from management
House was filthy. Toilets dirty. Left over used soap in outdoor shower. Management “offered” a midweek cleaning like they were doing us a favor. Toilet clogged. 24 hours to Get maintenance . Asked him to fix tv that didn’t work. His reply was “I don’t get paid to fix the television”. So much dirt dust and food under couches and tables we mopped them ourselves. Had to unload the dishwasher from previous renter. I could go on but management should be ashamed. They were not helpful at all. All Yelp reviews are horrible for 30A cottages and concierge.

House was great and in great condition. However the beach situation for the neighborhood was terrible. I’ve never been on a more crowded beach. It’s absurd that the neighborhood thinks that the small area they have designated for public beach setup is sufficient for a neighborhood that size. We ended up driving to the public beach access at Inlet Beach each day. Frustrating we paid the premium for walking access to the beach but couldn’t enjoy it.
