⭐ IMPORTANT - ROOF REPLACEMENT PROJECT ⭐
Please be advised that the Hidden Dunes HOA has scheduled a roof replacement project for all Beach Cottages throughout 2025, with work expected to continue into the fall, weather permitting. Our specific cottage (Unit 152) is tentatively slated for completion sometime between late summer and early fall. These timelines are provided by the HOA and are subject to change. During this project, guests may experience occasional disruptions such as construction noise during daytime hours, contractors working throughout the community, and the temporary presence of tools, dumpsters, and other equipment in common areas. To accommodate this, a construction discount has already been factored into your rate. No additional refunds, discounts, or credits will be issued after a reservation is confirmed or once a stay has begun - no exceptions. If you have any questions or would like the most current status of the project before booking, we encourage you to contact us directly. Our team is happy to provide real-time updates and help you make an informed decision. We truly appreciate your understanding as the community works to complete these important improvements.

EARLY ARRIVALS

If that isn't an option, one of our favorite public beaches is Pompano Joe's in Miramar Beach. It offers large bathrooms, plenty of parking, and a beachside restaurant. Our PCB properties have many options for public beach access, but our favorite would be Public Beach Access 54-57, right in front of Pier Park!
