Exceeded Expectations
Great property - closer than you would think to a very quiet beach and beautiful beach. House is very well supplied, it had pretty much anything we could want from coffee grinder to a wagon to cart gear to the beach, and lots of space for everyone to spread out. We did have trouble with the pool which meant no pool heat for the remainder of our stay but when it was heated it was amazing. Cape San Blas is a great get-away, we really enjoyed our time there!

Excellent Vacation
the property was well equipped, especially the kitchen. Great location and beach access. The only downside was the number of bathrooms for the number of adults and the layout of the bathrooms vs bedrooms.

Comfortable well maintained house made for a fantastic vacation!
The owners of the house have given so much attention to the details. The kitchen was organized and very well supplied with all the dishes, pots and pans you will need. The sofas were large and comfortable. The basket of throw blankets made us feel at home. The bikes were so much fun. We didn’t have children with us but the gated neighborhood was very kid friendly. Easy bike ride to the General Store (very well stocked), liquor store and ice cream shop. The pool was great and heated for a fee. I will miss the outdoor shower. Easy walk to the beach. The beach was not crowded and the people around us were all very friendly. We loved being able to have the dogs with us. We had a fun bonfire on the beach. Easy, relaxing and family friendly. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Sylvia & Bert

Host profile image
My husband, son and I have been Atlanta residents for for 24+ years, living in the Morningside neighborhood. Bert is on the faculty at Georgia Tech, I am a residential realtor with Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby's, and our son, Jackson, is studying in Los Angeles. We love dogs, hiking, cars, dogs, gardening, traveling, cooking, and dogs (did we say dogs?). Bert is Dutch, I am Colombian, and Jackson is Atlanta-born and raised. We have two large mutt dogs -- Phoebe (106 pounds), Austin (84 pounds) and one cat, Nellie (9 pounds).

Why they chose this property

Our friends Anne & Jim turned us on to Cape San Blas because we were looking for a dog friendly beach. We immediately fell in love with CSB due to the very laid-back vibe, being surrounded by both the Bay and the Gulf, the white-sand beach, the delicious seafood, plus the very friendly locals. What more could we ask for?! It is our place to unwind and de-stress. We plan our day around the sunset -- Cape San Blas has the best!

What makes this property unique

Our favorite things at CSB are the quiet, low-key relaxed feeling, kayaking on the Bay, local oysters/shrimp/grouper/tuna dip, long dog walks on the beach, bike-riding on the 8-mile trail, hiking at the Stump Hole and at St. Joe State Park, shopping at Apalachicola, the local beer (Oyster City brewery), early morning donuts at Weber's, the convenience of Tradin' Post general store, and, of course, the sunsets from the porch!
