Weekend Get a Way

Our room was absolutely inviting. The bed was so comfortable and with no wifi we actually drank wine around outside our dome and talked. I would recommend it to my friends who are couples. There is not much for the kids to do except the pool. More of a couples place.

The pool area was excellent, except we weren’t sure how to reserve a cabana. The Dome was so unique and had such a cool vibe even for our 60’s! We would have liked a welcome with some instructions but to be fair we didn’t go inside the restaurant. Maybe staff there had instructions for us? The bed and room are comfortable and absolutely the cleanest ever! We wished we didn’t have such a long walk to our Dome. We will be back to stay a couple days and get spa treatments!

Domes are Fun!

We made a last minute decision to stay in South Haven for one night as we were passing through. The domes looked fun, so we booked. We loved our dome. The decor was fun and we loved the privacy. The pool area is really cute with shipping container lounge areas where we just relaxed. We will definitely be back for a longer stay!

Great getaway for anytime of the week. Friendly service, that was very knowledgeable. The owner was very nice and helpful. The owner made you feel like family. Room was very detailed in decor and relaxing. View was amazing and not crowded. Anything you can think of from food to drinks, swimming weights or exercise equipment or weightless float and meditation tanks.

Daydream Domes was such a magical experience! The staff were the kindest, most helpful humans. Our AC wasn't working when we first arrived, but Missy was all over it, and by the time we got back from dinner the dome was nice and cool. The pool area isa whole vibe from morning meditations and singing bowls, to DJ dance parties and games. The domes were clean and spacious, and the property is stunning. We will absolutely be back - I won't stay anywhere else in South Haven now that I found Daydream Domes - absolute perfection.

More Dome, please!

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay! It was a fun and unique experience and I look forward to returning in the future. I loved the dome- cool layout/design in the space and it’s obvious a lot of time and love was put into the creation of this property. Great communication from owner as well as very warm and welcoming. Also- I highly recommend a float session!

Super cute concept! Customer service was a 10, which is saying a lot considering we had the entire resort to ourselves for the off season with no staff on site. I have to admit it was a little spooky at night bc we were the only guests, but once I got past that I LOVED IT! We can’t wait to book during the summer season and use all the amenities. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
