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!

Dirt and rocks in water

The dome had dirt and rocks in the water. We couldn't brush our teeth or have drinking water. They didn't offer any solution to the problem. There was nothing relaxing about the stay. No chairs to enjoy the outdoors. It was missing the "luxurious" aspect that they described. The bedding was so crunchy and loud due to how shiny it was. The faucet, shower and fridge handles all fell off. The door somehow locked us out of the dome in the middle of the night. The tub is charming but useless as you can't fill the tub up because there is no water pressure. Lastly, the highway noise is very loud. They offered to make things right due to the water issues, but never followed through.

Daydreamer Domes was an awesome, unique experience. The dome was comfortable and decorated nicely. We didn’t get to use the pool but the area looked awesome. My husband and I both tried a float for the first time and it was cool! The staff were very friendly and welcoming.
