Our family had an amazing trip! The location was perfectly located on the middle of the island, easy walking distance to coffee, ice cream and the general store. All rooms had an amazing view of the ocean. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you needed for our stay. The pool and hot tub was perfect for our trip in early March.

Great Vacation Spot

We had a wonderful time at this house. The artwork and decor are beautiful and really tastefully done. We paid to have the pool heated - totally worth the money. The hot tub was lovely. And the location - within steps of the very popular donut shop and the trading post - was perfect. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Beach House!

Our crew had a great trip! House was in a great location...close walk to the beach on a private access road...close walk to the Trading Post, Ice Cream stand and Webers Donuts. Would recommend this place to any family looking for a great location on a great beach! We are ready to rebook for next Spring Break.

Perfectly located and clean property

This house has a fabulous pool and is in close proximity to the beach. Beds are comfortable and we loved the 3 King option all with bathrooms. The sunsets are superb and the CSB/PSJ area is quiet and laid back. Great house.

Very nice property

The house is very roomy and great location. Beautiful beach very short walk. Nice to have the Trading Post close and it was well stocked. The pool is the best spot when it was hot. Walking the beach great too! Beautiful sunsets and pleasant evenings made the trip a pleasant memory. Would definitely come again.

Beautiful House

Beautiful house with wonderful views and just a few steps from the beach. Had everything you could want for vacation and then some. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There were a few things in the house that need attention but nothing that would keep me from renting again.

Lovely home!

We absolutely loved this beach home! The house was clean, in wonderful condition, had everything we needed and was in a great location! The walk to the beach was even shorter than it looks. Have the Trading Post market one block behind us was SO convenient. The kids’ favorite part of the whole trip was the heated pool! We would definitely love to stay again!

Fabulous and relaxing!!!

The BEST VRBO we have been at. Beautiful home with many more like home amenities then others we have stayed at. The pool and hot tub were warm, clean, and extremely enjoyable. Amazing views and super easy walk to the beach. The town was fabulous as well. Loved that the Trading Post was just up the road and had everything we needed. The food was great and super fast. We ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner there once each. We loved our stay and would stay again!! Thank you!!

Family vacay

First time to stay in CSB and we loved every second of it. The house was so great! Loved everything about it. Beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked, decor was great. Loved the balcony looking out to the water. Sunsets were gorgeous. Payed to have the pool heated and the temp was perfect with the cooler temps, though we spent most our time at the beach! The owner was great to work with. We walked to get ice cream, seafood, donuts and shop at the trading post which are a very short distance to the road. A perfect location. Only downside for someone older was the steep drop off up and down the sand to the beach. Overall it was a wonderful trip and would recommend this house and location to anyone considering it.

Convenient, Comfortable Beach House

We really enjoyed our stay here. This was our 4th group beach trip with the same crew and our favorite house yet. It’s clear that this house is well loved because it has basically everything we could think of from a kitchen perspective, kids toys, beach chairs, wagon, etc unlike many other rentals. The short walk to the beach access point is really easy- down a hard-packed sand road. The seafood market, grocery/ice cream joint is just up the road in the other direction. Having everything you need steps away is extremely convenient for families. The outdoor shower has both hot and cold water and we used it instead of the indoor one. However all bedrooms have their own bathroom which is really great. The plunge pool is great for kids, too. It’s nice to chill outside on the decks and enjoy the sunset and have dinner. We were able to check in a bit early too! All around great experience, highly recommend.

This was a great home with easy beach access, perfect for our large family! Since it’s an older home there are some ongoing repair needs but the host responded quickly to every concern! This is one of the best stocked homes we’ve ever rented….the only thing missing was beach towels!! Views were amazing and the beach felt very private… loved visiting Cape San Blas.
