Our family spent two incredible, memorable weeks in Sandy Bottoms. Outstanding does not even begin to describe our stay and I would high recommend to anyone who is looking to vacation on the Emerald Coast. From the very beginning of our stay, both the owner and Coastal Dreamin' were fantastic. Clearly communicated the timelines, amenities, and details of the property. We felt fully prepared before we left our house on what we could expect and what was provided. This was very nice as we were driving with limited room and appreciated how well thought out the home was and did not need to bring anything other than clothes. Literally the only thing we needed once we arrived was a trip to the grocery store for food. The home was immaculate, comfortable, and inviting. The owners have thought of EVERYTHING you could need - from a day at the beach, to relaxing by the pool (15 ft away), or a day staying in. Beach access is a leisurely 10 minute walk or 3 minute bike ride on one of the 8 bikes they had provided. The garage has every beach toy, game, or resource you could need on your vacation and it is very easy to load up on the provided beach wagon or golf cart and transport for a day at the beach. The home is so close to the beach, it was very easy to stroll down for sunrise, sunset, or if you had 30 minutes to spare and wanted to listen to the waves or walk on the sand. Within a mile there are plenty of gift shops, ice cream stores, restaurants, and entertainment to last weeks and we enjoyed our daily walks to discover all that Santa Rosa and surrounding areas have to offer. The owners provided a very nice welcome booklet with plenty of local ideas as well. The home itself is exquisite and has every modern convenience you could imagine. Cable and tv in every bedroom, granite countertops throughout, and the 2nd floor outside patio is very relaxing and a great place to relax anytime during the day. We are definitely planning on returning and referring all of our friends. I cannot say enough good things about our experience - truly terrific stay!
