Texas Travelers

We traveled from Texas to Florida for a baseball tournament. Shirley is amazing! She had food and drinks ready for us in the fridge after the long drive 🤩 We had plenty of room (and more importantly - bathrooms) for 3 small families. The pool was perfect after a hot day on the field. Location was close to golf course (for the dads) and beach (for the moms & kids)! We made great memories there. Thanks for sharing your home with us! We hope to come back again

Best VRBO ever!

Dream Boat is an all star accommodation and Shirley is #1 hostess! House is large enough for family to spread out yet multiple gathering places for card games, meals, etc. Best pool experience ever- we enjoyed swimming night and day with the heated pool. Shirley had ample supplies of everything- felt like home!most definitely would recommend!!

Wonderful Peaceful Home

The house is outstanding, one of the nicest rental homes I’ve stayed in. It was so warm comfortable and inviting we had no desire to leave the house to go to the beach. We spent most of our time sitting out back enjoying the peaceful canal. The kids loved fishing and even caught some blue crab in the trap that’s located in the garage. The kids also kayaked for the first time and had a lot of fun. Having the pool, fishing and kayaks at your back door was so nice. The pool table was also enjoyed that’s located in the garage. Hands down this is my favorite vacation home, I don’t have one negative thing to say. The host Shirley is so kind and goes above and beyond on EVERYTHING. She has definitely set a standard for rental homes for me moving forward. Many thanks to Shirley for allowing me and my family to stay in your home to create another year of vacation memories.

Amazing house and even more amazing host!

It is a good thing we have stayed at other vacation rentals or this one would have ruined me for the future. We could have literally just brought the clothes on our back and have been set for the week! Shirley thought of everything and even some things we didnt even know we needed! She had drinks and chicken and potato salad ready for us when we arrived which was greatly appreciated. The home was absolutely stunning and so much room for our large group. Dont hesitate for one minute to book this home as you will not be disappointed!

April 9-18 2025 Stay

Our group consisted of 6 retired family members on our annual spring vacation. We’ve rented homes in FL for over ten years, and the DreamBoat Paradise had the best-stocked pantry. But it wasn’t just the panty – there were some toiletries and sun-protection products also available. Of course we enjoyed using the pool and hot tub. While we didn’t use the kayaks, pool table, and other “toys”, they would serve any family well. And the fried chicken, potato salad and drinks awaiting us on our arrival date was an extra special treat. We enjoyed dining at neighboring eateries (Crab Trap, Fisherman’s Corner, De Soto’s, JellyFish). There were very few questions/issues, and were answered/resolved promptly. We would highly recommend a stay at the DreamBoat Paradise.

Florida Fun!

What a wonderful welcome to the aptly named Dreamboat Paradise: it was so thoughtful of Shirley to provide us with fried chicken, beverages, and snacks so that we didn’t have to go grocery shopping immediately. And that was just the beginning! Our recent stay at this property is one that we will remember fondly. The floor plan of the home was perfect for our family - three generations - with four bedrooms and four baths. Each couple or family group could have their own space, ensuring that we had privacy as well as togetherness during this fun time. The large dining room table accommodated all of us, enabling us to share meals and games. Another table in the breakfast “nook” allowed puzzle-lovers to work on a puzzle throughout the week without having to move the pieces. The “apartment” above the garage was a great setting for video games; no one downstairs was bothered by the sounds or any monopolizing of a television in a more public space. While we loved the interior of the home, we spent much of our time outside enjoying the pool at all hours, an advantage of a private pool over a communal one. We also spent plenty of time at nearby Johnson National Seashore. Sand and sun and sno-cones; pool play and puzzles; karaoke and kayaking; books and board games; Olympics and baseball (nice of the Guards to play the Orioles last week 🙂); and fishing too! A great week! We are grateful for the use of the home and Shirley’s helpfulness and hospitality. A five-star experience! KG

Better than expected

Photos just do not do this property justice! The high ceilings, layout of the home (perfect for our two families) and ample amenities made our week away fantastic! Shirley was a top notch host and all of the thoughtful touches made this our favorite VRBO we've visited to date. Dinner upon arrival, thoughtful treats for the kids, the most delightful pool temperature and hot tub, and pool table were all amazing. We also loved being able to kayak and paddle boat out to the lagoon and were even delighted one morning to catch sight of dolphins. It is also a short drive (or walk) to Publix, local dining, and of course the beach. We had a wonderful time and hope to return in the future!

The Dream Boat IS Paradise

My family absolutely LOVED it! We love the area and the location was nice because we were in between the things we love to do in Gulf Shores and Navarre. Our host went ABOVE and BEYOND to make us feel welcome and supported in our stay. From the food in the fridge to help with the pool, Shirley was the hostess with the mostest. Our whole family enjoyed the pool, especially on the days when the weather was too chilly for the beach. It was so much fun to see dolphins near our place. We would absolutely love to get to come back here again. Highly recommend!

Best stay we've had.

Owner was so kind, even had items in the fridge, deli chicken and potato salad, so we didn't have to run to the store after a long drive. None of the usual of stripping beds before leaving, which made for a easier departure in the early morning. Can't say enough great things about the location, the home and Owner will definitely want to go again.

Wonderful Family Vacation

Dreamboat paradise was absolutely wonderful in every way. Prior to arrival our host Shirley ask our beverage preference and left a variety of snacks and drinks. Along with an arrival meal of chicken and potato salad in the fridge. The property is absolutely stunning! Beautifully decorated yet very comfortable. Our trip was a blended family vacation to include smaller children and teens. We had such a great time hanging out at the pool, cooking, and grilling that we only left to go to the beach once. The kayaks and paddle boat on the open water was definitely a highlight of the trip. We were able to see the Blue Angels practice when we were out on the water. The property has everything you need from cooking to recreation. Plenty of towels and beach towels, floats, beach chairs, ect. All the rooms are furnished with plenty of blankets and throws to make for a cozy relaxing night after a fun day of swimming. The beds are all comfortable, especially the master king which was like sleeping on a cloud. The master bath is very relaxing and spacious. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. The back covered porch is definitely a great entertaining area. Our teens took over the upstairs area. They loved that they had their own little living area to hang out and do some video gaming. My son said the TV was great for gaming. We had a great time! I could go on forever about how wonderful this experience was. A big thanks to our host Mrs Shirley for making our trip so pleasant.

Great house and wonderful host!

My family of 5 rented this house along with my sisters and their kids (10 people total), and I can’t say enough good things about this property. It looks even nicer in person than the pictures, it was incredibly clean, and the location was perfect. It is located in a quiet area away from all of the heavy traffic of the bigger beach towns, and there is a beautiful beach that my group enjoyed within ten minutes. The house is within an hour or less of some other great beaches and towns if you want to venture out (orange beach is about 15 minutes, gulf shores 30 minutes, and Pensacola beaches and shops about an hour). The adults and kids (teenager included!) loved the pool and all of the other amenities (the pool table was a hit), and we really loved how the house allowed all of us to have our own space (the upstairs area was closed off a bit and perfect for families with younger kids), especially lots of bathrooms. Shirley, the host was amazing…super easy to communicate with during our stay and she even had snacks and beverages waiting for us and the kids upon arrival!! I would absolutely stay at this house again.
