Dreams of Nature - Sea Breeze Cottage

A Hand-Curated Coastal Mermaid and Sea Turtle Retreat

by Dawn's Sunshine Retreat· Inglis, FL

What to Expect

Welcome to Sea Breeze Cottage — a lovingly renovated camper transformed into an elegant coastal sanctuary unlike anything you've ever stayed in.

Forget everything you think you know about camper stays. This is something entirely different. Every inch of this charming retreat has been thoughtfully designed with handcrafted details that will take your breath away — pearl white cabinetry with turquoise crystal drawer pulls, rustic light wood flooring, hand-painted sea turtles and seahorses on the walls, mermaid artwork throughout, seahorse batik curtains with starfish and sea rope tiebacks, and a string of pearls framing the mirror. Even the blankets on your bed feature original artwork painted by your host Dawn — a seahorse and a sea turtle — making every detail a work of art you can curl up inside and her work is available to take home should you choose.

THE SPACE:

Your private cottage sits on a peaceful acre of natural Florida landscape where you'll hear nature, not traffic. Wake up to birdsong, sip your morning coffee at your outdoor seating area, and fall asleep under impossibly starry Florida skies. This is authentic Old Florida living at its most charming.

SLEEPING: The main area features a comfortable queen bed dressed in custom art blankets. A separate curtained room provides a full bed — perfect for a travel companion or child. Sea Breeze Cottage sleeps up to 3 guests comfortably.
