Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Dock of the Bay was the perfect getaway for our families. We had everything we needed and more. The screened in porch looking over the bay was our favorite spot the entire vacation. There were so many comfortable seating options for lounging and relaxing. We loved that the dock was lit up at night so we could see the fish in the water. Dock of the Bay was so clean and comfortable and close to the beach and restaurants. It was a perfect stay for our families and we can’t wait to go back!

What's not to love about Dock of the Bay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had a great time staying at Dock of the Bay in Santa Rosa Beach, FL. The home is eclectically decorated and very comfortable with all the amenities we needed. The pictures do not do it justice. Each bedroom had its own full bath which was ideal for our grown children and their spouses. The location on the Choctawhatchee Bay was ideal and close to shopping and the beach. We would definitely stay here again!
