Sent some guy named Brendon to our house to measure and give us an estimate. He showed up with an attitude, started questioning if our HOA would allow as desert landscape, and basically said he didn't want to waste his time if a desert landscape isn't allowed. We explained no one in our neighborhood has done one yet but that doesn't mean we won't be allowed - we just need to submit our plan for approval. Then Brendon went across the street and started questioning a neighbor about our HOA rules, came to the door, and said he wasn't interested in doing a plan for us because our neighbor said our plan would never get approved. Obviously, Brendon just didn't want to work today and was looking for an excuse to go home early. Not a company we would do business with if Brendon is their idea of a salesman! read more

I hired Dream Retreats in 2012. Everything they did has held up perfectly. Superb workmanship. I had another landscape project and I went straight to Dream Retreats. I had my front yard overhauled. I converted to xeriscape, paver driveway for my RV gate, paver walkway and porch, and carried the pavers around to my paver patio, along with landscape lighting. I also had them do a outdoor BBQ. Everything looks phenomenal. I have gotten a TON of compliments from my neighbors saying how great my front yard looks. Dream Retreats is my go to landscape project company. read more

GREAT experience from beginning to end. The designer was detailed and created a vision that met ALL our needs. The pricing was line-item, straight forward and competitive. The PM and install crews were timely, clean and professional. This whole experience was great and I have referred them to anyone who will listen. My neighbor was so impressed with our job - they hired Dream Retreats to do their back-yard! They are busy, so it took about 2 weeks to get the designer to the house. It was worth the wait! read more

Brenden, Alex and their team designed and built a beautiful outdoor kitchen for us. We are new to Arizona and didn't have a clue what would be the best fit. Gave us lots of good advice. They were here when they said they'd be and were clean and respectful of our space. Great service and great value! read more

Loved working with Sonny and had a great initial experience but product and materials have not held up. Only one year in, we have issues with our pavers separating and in our turf you can easily see divots and the seam. They won't help us repair these issues which is a bit frustrating. I wouldn't recommend using this company. read more

Referral from a buddy. Called, left a message initially. Someone called back (female) and said "Alex" (name could be wrong it was 3 plus weeks ago now) would be reaching out to me in next day or 2. That was 3 weeks ago roughly...yep this place is one to avoid. If you can't call me to set a simple appointment, I definately do not want you doing a 30k plus project anywhere on my property...call around folks, lots of contractors looking for work right now... read more

Dream Retreats was a great fit for us! We had grass, rocks, plants and a paver patio installed about 2 months ago and couldn't be happier. I wasted a lot of time talking to other companies that either never got back to me, provided quotes that were 3x my budget, told me they were out of my price range or weren't currently accepting bids. We worked on the design with Sonny and he did a great job coming up with something we could actually afford that also looked awesome! There was some hurry up and wait (which I'm pretty sure is extremely common in this industry) and minimal notice when work would be done. (I'd get a call in the afternoon with a 1-2 day window of when work would happen). They started working 3-4 weeks after we put down a deposit and were done in less than a week. We'll definitely be using them again if we move or do our front yard. read more

At first I was very impressed with their response. Sonny was very courteous over the phone and was able to set up a date to meet with us relativity quickly. He arrived as scheduled, asked a few questions and took some very basic measurements. We told him our budget was around 65k and he told me he would draft a plan. That meeting was on June 22nd 2020, it is now July 22nd 2020. In early July I sent one e-mail asking about our status, but I have not received a reply. I can only determine that my project wasn't enough for them, and thus they have chosen to ignore me without any further notification. read more

We hired Dream Retreats to remodel our backyard. We also wanted to add a pool at the same time and Dream Retreats partnered with True Blue Pools for the project. Brendan from Dream Retreats collected our ideas and then worked with True Blue to come up with a total backyard redesign. We signed a contract in October and the project was finally complete around the end of June. The work took longer than we were expecting, but we are thoroughly happy with the results. The next time that we remodel a yard, we will definitely turn to Dream Retreats for the work. We would recommend this company to anyone planning a landscaping project, without reservation. read more

5 stars for quite an endless list of areas. Initial booking of consultation was seamless, professional, and informative. Design process was fun and effortless. Invoicing and payment was smooth, and pricing competitive with like quality designers. Installation crew were near perfect, and were the hardest working people I've ever met; they know what they're doing and it shows. And of course, for the end result. The owner, Todd is easy to work with and responsive to inquiries and update requests. Lucio was an excellent team leader and the work he oversaw was impeccable. There were a few bumps along the road as there are bound to be on large projects, but ultimately they were handled well. I would recommend this team, and have, to anyone. Quality. Efficiency. Dreamy. We have our retreat read more

We hired them in Summer 2017 for yard work and we are glad we did. Brandon gave us a great design so that we could see it before we committed and Alex did a great job managing the project. We took three quotes from area businesses and they weren't the cheapest but for the work they did and the quality of it, we were very happy. read more

The guys did a fantastic job. From the original contact until the project finished, I always knew what was happening and why. I loved seeing the project develop so quickly. The team was very responsive and I couldn't be more please with the results. Highly recommended. read more

My biggest mistake was NOT using Dream Retreats initially on my backyard project. We did use Todd and his crew to fix and re-do much of the poor work done by another company and their work and professionalism were outstanding. When the time comes to do the front yard, Dream Retreats will be the only company we'll call. read more

I filled out their online form requesting to be contacted for more information. That was on July, 29th and I still haven't heard anything over a month later. read more

This company is awesome! The service is just as good after the sale as it was before. I will use this company for all projects going forward and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks again for your service and great work Dream Retreats. My yard looks great!!! read more

I found Dream Retreats through a referral from a friend. These guys are the absolute best! From start to finish, they kept a great line of communication, did not try to up sale, worked within my budget, all while transforming my backyard into a beautiful 'Dream Retreat'! The owner Todd answered the phone every single time I called, he completed my project on time, on budget, and did a knock out job of cleaning up. I highly recommend Todd & his team. Thanks again Dream Retreats! read more

Dream Retreats did a fantastic job on our back yard! We worked with Brendan on the design and spoke with Todd, the owner, before starting the work. We had one other company give us a quote too and they were right in line with Dream Retreats. We liked the customer service and communication of Dream Retreats so we went with them. Everything was communicated very well by Brendan, the work started on time, and it took about a week to complete once they started. We can't wait to enjoy our back yard during the Phoenix winter! read more

I wanted to get my backyard done and was getting quotes from couple of licensed companies in the valley. I came across dream retreats website and was pleased by seeing their work and reviews. I contacted them through their website and got a reply back from Todd. Todd (Owner) and Sonny (Designer), i found both of them to be very co-operative and truly professional. Initially, there was little confusion between the measurement and the quote but Todd took care of everything. I was expecting my parents to visit me, so i requested Todd to get it don't before they arrive. They were booked till 3 weeks, still Todd managed to fit my project on their schedule. I would highly recommend dream retreats landscape. Thanks Todd read more
