Property was located close to beach access, even has a little ocean view. Everything was as described and it was well stocked with kitchen items and the beach closet outside was full of useful items and beach toys. Great stay!

The kitchen pots and pans were old, not much to really cook with. The community was nice, safe, friendly.

We appreciated your feedback and were able to alert the owners who arrived after you and immediately replaced those pots and pans with a new set. We're so glad you were able to enjoy the relaxation of Peace of Cape and Barrier Dunes. It really is a little piece of paradise down here.
Thanks again,
Ros & Carolyn
Minutes from beach, nicely decorated and comfortable
Suzanne was very responsive and quick to answer questions. Condo was very comfortable and minutes from the beach. Love the dog-friendly beach.

Thank you Julie! It was a pleasure to meet you and we're so glad that you enjoyed your stay :) We hope you will come back and see us again. All the best, Carolyn & Ros
Great location, 2 minutes and your on the beach. Place was very clean. Exactly as listed. Well stocked kitchen. Coffee and breakfast in the morning on the patio with view of the ocean was nice. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Right next to the state park was awsome. Rented a boat and saw all kinds of marine life. Would definitely stay here again. ( If you ever decide to sell let me know )

Thank you Wayne! We appreciate you taking a minute to write a review. So glad you had a good anniversary trip! Please come back and stay with us again soon. All the best, Ros & Carolyn
This was our first visit to Cape San Blas and we hope to return. It’s so beautiful and quiet without all the traffic and noise. Peace of Cape was awesome and the easiest walk to the beach ever. Everything we needed was available. The owners were so easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions I had. The email with all the information we needed prior to arrival was very helpful. We would love to stay at Peace of Cape again!

This place was awesome to stay at. As a family of 5 with small kids this place was perfect and also had a high chair. It's so close to the beach you can set up your stuff in the morning and don't have to worry about anything.
Also for the Dad's/Mom's who carry the whole house to the beach this walk was maybe 100 yards and I didn't need to bring a wagon for everything. I just made a couple trips.
The pool is directly across from the condo which is very convenient . One thing to note about this pool there's not a ton of shade so be prepared with sun screen.
The beach gear locker was stocked appropriately, the only thing we brought was a pop up tent for more shade on the beach. There's plenty of sand castle toys and a couple of body boards.
We had a great time and will be back for years to come.

Hi Jesse, thanks for taking a few minutes to write a review for us. We are delighted you guys enjoyed your stay in Peace of Cape. It really is a fantastic unit, as you say, so close to the beach and even a view of the Gulf if you never leave the deck! Please let us know when we can help you get booked for your next vacation and we'll make it 'ez' again. :)
Thanks, and have an easy day! R & C
Location, beach and overall condition of the condo were fine. However, how it was advertised was misleading. It was a 2BR and not a 3BR, where there were once bunk beds are no longer available. Also, we could never get any hot water in the master shower and we needed new batteries for the 2nd BR TV. Never got them delivered, so the TV had to be worked manually from the back and it is wall mounted.

Hi Mitch,
Well, we're glad you enjoyed the location and the property itself while you were here. We do feel like we have to clear this up and mention that it seems like maybe you misread the description because this unit has never been advertised as a 3 bedroom and it has been a very long time since the hallway bunks were mentioned at all as they are not available to use and so are definitely not advertised in any way. With your named party of 4, we wouldn't have had any reason to think you'd need the extra space, although there is an extra pullout bed in the Queen bedroom if needed.
Unfortunately, you did not mention your hot water issue so we didn't get a chance to address it but I'm sure, as with the TV issue, it would have been sorted out easily for you. Usually having what is perceived as no hot water in just one faucet just means you may be turning the handle in the wrong direction, and we'd have been glad to help you out with it all. A 3 Star review is unfair for this property as it was and is as advertised.
We do wish you all the best in your future travels. Ros & Carolyn

Great stay on the beach
Very comfortable condo and the 1 min to the beach claim is no exaggeration. The only reason we didn't give it 5 stars was because we felt like the kitchen wasn't very well equipped for cooking. We like to cook most of our meals when we rent places on the Gulf and cooking utensils and equipment (pots/pans) were pretty sparse in this unit. Really a very minor complaint - wish I could give it 4.75 stars.
And for anyone staying there after this review, if you find a white gold wedding band, it'd be incredibly kind of you if you got it back to the owners or better yet, let me know (ransul @ gmail . com)!
** Edited. I felt guilty giving it four stars instead of five, so I came back and bumped it up. Just prepare accordingly if you plan to cook.

Hi!
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We found out that there were cabinets in the kitchen that had been locked that were supposed to be left open. We apologize for this inconvenience! The owners had guests in just prior to your stay and the cabinets were left locked, but should not have been and this problem has been corrected. We hope you will come back and stay with us again!!!

Peace of Cape was perfect for my family’s long weekend break in October. We love the beach in October and this was our first time at the Cape. The town home was clean and well furnished. Plenty of space for my family of four and our dog. I appreciate the fold out bed as our kids refused to share the queen bed.
The location to the beach was great. Loved all the space to store our beach gear, kids’ bikes and SUP. I love it when we do not have to pack our beach cart and chairs from home- so thank you for providing those.
The master bed was comfortable; there was plenty of space to hang clothes or out in drawers. It was cool enough in the mornings to open the screen door. There were a lot of bugs outside- so use the screens! The bathrooms are small, however I used the dresser in the bedroom to lay out my toiletries which worked really well. It’s nice to have a half bath in the living room floor.
The kitchen had all of the things we needed for our short stay. A little worn out but it’s a rental, so we know things will not be brand new.
The complex itself was clean. Roads and parking are narrow. Kids hopped in the main pool and played on the playground. Beach access is easy.
The booking and check in process was very easy. There was plenty of communication and the check in email was thorough. I do wish the check out info was in the email. We had a couple of small issues and the management was responsive. Nothing that affected our overall stay.
We will stay here again.

When you are ready to come back, just let us know and we'll make it easy again :) All the best, Ros & Carolyn
