We’ve stayed on the cape since the 80s, and this is always my favorite property to stay at. The kids had a blast. This was my son’s first time in the dome home.

Bed bugs! Luckily it was only in one bedroom and the property manager was extremely responsive. We were given two choices: 1. Leave (with no where to go) or 2. Stay out of the house for most of the day while the room was treated. Since we had just driven 12 hours to get there and we had only been there 24 hours and had planned to be there a week we really didn’t want to leave the cape.(They were offering a full refund if we chose this option. We looked around and everything was booked, there was no where to stay…additionally we were not allowed to stay in any other VRBO property because we were “exposed.” We wound up choosing option 2. We rented a boat for the day and stayed out while the room was treated. Despite it being treated we never used that room the remainder of the trip, two of the kids (fully grown teenagers) lost their room and had to sleep on the couch the rest of the trip (not the worst thing but we were expecting everyone to have their own bed. We did get a partial refund and like I said the property manager was very responsive and kind. We love the cape and still had an amazing time. Would I stay at this house again? No. The pictures of the beach in front of the house are deceiving. I’m not sure when those where taken but there isn’t a lot of beach left in front of the home, and the strip of beach that is there isn’t usable, unless you don’t want to get in the water. There are multiple fallen trees that make it impossible to safely get in the water.

Loved it!

Step out the door onto the beach. Nice. The shape of the house is very fun. It is kind of like a maze. It does need a little updating, but all-in-all it’s a great house. I would stay there again.

Location only

The only thing worth rating is the location and being right on the beach. Home is very outdated, in need of alot of repairs, furniture wore out, and home has a constant bad odor.

We enjoyed our stay. Location and view was great. It would help to put lighting on the outside stairs and do a little maintenance.

Dome home

We really enjoyed our stay. We had 6 adults and everyone had plenty of room to spread out. Perfect beach access. The dome does sway a little bit not enough to bother us. This was a great holiday get away. I would highly recommend the dome to travelers wanting a unique experience.

Can't beat the view!

Having your front yard as the ocean... doesn't get any better than that! The dome home is a bit deceptive... its much bigger on the inside then I expected. The house was clean. We had plenty of towels. Beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the front room setup. Would have loved to have had an outdoor table and chairs. The deck below with a shower, a place to rinse your feet, and dump your beach stuff was awesome! The kitchen could use some simple restocking ie: pizza cutter, ice cream scooper, more utensils, etc. I would 100% stay at the dome home again.

Wonder unique stay

This was a birthday trip with our family and we loved staying in the dome home. You cannot beat the location. The lighting throughout the home was really neat. Lots and lots of shells right outside your door! Great experience. The home is in need of some repair, especially the tiles but overall would stay again.

Dome Dome on the Range

The Dome home was great! Very unique architecture. You are right on the water so going back and forth from the house to the water was easy. Cape San Blas as a whole is great too. Very quiet area. Fishing from the beach was also great. Will be happy to rent again if an opportunity presents itself.

Nice home

Over all it was a nice visit. Right at the water. Held all of my crew which was the max very nicely. The only problem was the cookware needs updating. Cooking wasn’t easy for 10 people with small pans that everything stuck too.

Delightful Dome on the Beach

Overall an amazing experience staying in the dome home. Spacious deck! Large rooms inside & the multi story living area was very cool. It had interesting sound effects :)) We also experienced the swaying other reviewers mentioned which was pretty cool once we realized what was happening. Kitchen was adequately stocked. We hope to return for another visit!

55th Birthday Celebration

My husband booked this property for my 55th birthday birthday week. We usually spend my birthday week in Port St Joe, which we love. However this year he surprised me with the booking of the "Dome Home". Let me say that this location is absolutely amazing. The inside is huge and the woodwork is beautiful. We loved the beachfront view along with the private location, due to an empty rental on one side and an empty lot on the other side. We can't wait to come back next year !!

Great! No wifi!

Not super ideal for toddlers as there is lots of wires and cabinets they could get to. Otherwise a great location for a family stay. Lots of bedding and great kitchen appliances. The wifi would not stay on and was out 3 of the 4 days we stayed. Make sure you bring a wifi Hotspot if you wish to have access to a network at all.

The dome home

The location of this home and proximity to the beach is a major selling point, the home was clean and well appointed for our stay with just 2 of us being there. Being February we didn't need to use the outdoor shower for any reason, but it was there and appeared to be in working condition. A couple of the cons we noticed were, the grout in the tile floor throughout the main area of the house needs some attention, there was one bed we were told about prior to our stay being damaged and the wardrobe in one bedroom has the door hinges broken. Lastly the plastic deck chairs were mostly broken, which only being 2 of us in our stay didn't affect our enjoyment of the deck but had there been more people in the party we would have been out of deck seating after about 4. Would definitely book the home again in the future as it was a nice place, quiet location, and much more roomy than it appears in the pictures and seeing it from the road.

Amazing views but a falling apart house

Starting off with the good. 1. Amazing views right on the beach with a private boardwalk and close to stores to pick up things 2. They provide no toiletries 3. No dish washer detergent 4. We didn’t get any extra towels or blankets 5. Every single bed had sand in them. 6. The washer was trashed and had a repair guy to come out to confirm that it needed be replaced. 7. We had roaches 8. This place needs some serious repairs and is out outdated. The pillars look like they are on their last legs. 9. the grill only works on one side and looks like it has never been cleaned 10. The place didn’t even have a broom to sweep up the sand that will be tracked into the house. If it went for the view and location I would have requested another place. I seriously doubt that the cleaner changed the bedding. We really wanted to like it but I would skip this one.

Unique House ON the beach

We loved our stay at the Dome Home! It was probably 25 steps to the ocean. There was no one in the house next door and an empty lot on the other side so it was almost like having a private beach. We loved the outdoor shower with hot and cold water. It made showering the 5 kids after a day at the beach much easier and helped keep sand out of the house. The only complaints we had were the bathrooms could really use some updates (especially the toilets), there weren’t quite as many kitchen utensils/pots/pans as we would have liked, and there is a need for more places to hang swimsuits/towels in the outdoor shower area and in the bathrooms. Overall we loved our stay there and would definitely go again. The kids called it a spaceship and loved the spiral stair case to their upstairs bedrooms.
