Great on the Cape

Very nice place! Everything as described, and then some! Very comfortable and plenty of room for three adult couples. The kitchen was better equipped than most places you'll find. Easy walking distance to the pools and beach. Would stay here again!

Quiet and Peaceful

We enjoyed the property. We talked with the owners about a few small things and they addressed it. Very good communication. The proximity to the beach and state park made it easy to enjoy the beaches.

Nice spot but watch out for deer flies

The property was nice and our grandsons enjoyed it, but we’ll avoid May and June in the future, as my wife had rather severe reactions to deer fly bites and we left a day early.

Thanks for your comments and we are really sorry to hear about your wife's negative experience with the deer flies on Cape San Blas. I understand they are worse than usual this year. I'm glad your family enjoyed our property.

Great host

These hosts were great. We loved all the beach stuff available. We loved the bikes available, also. During our stay, we experienced a tornado warning. Our hosts actually called to check on us and make sure we knew about the warning. We also loved Barrier Dunes.

Perfect Home for a Family Vacation!

We had a wonderful stay in June. The location was perfect! It was a short walk to the pool, playground and beach! The home had literally everything we needed. There is a wagon and an extensive selection of beach toys! The kids loved riding their bikes everywhere and fishing in the pond at night. There were a lot of people staying in the community but it never felt crowded and it was very peaceful. We heard zero noise from either of the properties next to our unit. We will definitely plan a return trip to this house.

Family Beach Vacation

Overall, my family and I had a good experience renting on Cape San Blas. Our biggest positives were the location of the unit relative to the beach and the overall laid back and quite atmosphere of the Cape. It was also in a good location relative to good restaurants and fun activities such as a day trip to Apalachicola and deep sea fishing. Our biggest issue was with the cleanliness of the unit. On the surface level, things were fine. But there were issues such as a live spider and spider webs in a corner of the ceiling and bath mats that were clearly dirty. We understand that it’s the end of summer and lots of guests have stayed throughout the season, but a deeper clean would probably be helpful. But overall, I would recommend this location for a vacation to Cape San Blas.

Everything we needed!

The property was very clean, and we had no complaints. Christy and Jim were quick to reply with any questions we had. We cooked at the condo most nights, and the kitchen had everything we needed, and the grill worked out for us as well. We stayed during the last week of July, and it was in the 90s every day. Separate thermostats on each floor kept us cool all week. Though we didn't use much of the lenders' beach equipment, they were quick to offer the use of anything. This is our fourth trip to Barrier Dunes, and we have always had great hosts.

Nice place, great beach

We spent Thanksgiving week at this house. It was great. The beach is amazing here - beautiful, soft, white sand and you can walk for miles in either direction. The townhouse is nice, especially given its reasonable price. It is relatively simple but comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped. There are a couple of nice pools and tennis courts too. The bike path starts just down the street and runs all the way to the mainland. The owner was super responsive and very helpful. A great stay.

Nice but...

Overall, the house and neighborhood were all okay but nothing more. The house had only enough utensils for our family of six for a single meal. There was only enough toilet paper to last us through one day of our week-long stay. The beach chairs, canopy and wagon were all rusty and couldn’t be used. Unbeknownst to us, the grill grease pan was full and caused a large fire that singed my hair and could have burnt down the deck if not the entire unit. The unit is advertised as pet friendly but charges a considerable pet fee and then the owner held back some of the deposit for pet hair. The VRBO listing states that the check-out time as 11a but we were charged for checking out at 10.30a because the owner stated that check-out time was 10a. The location was good. Very close to the beautiful state park beaches and bay access. It takes five minutes to walk to the beach which is convenient but the access has several steps so could not accommodate a stroller, wheelchair or beach wagon. Many of the beachgoers set-up large encampments along the span of the development and kept some of their items on the beach overnight to claim the space for the entirety of their stay. This made for a long walk to find an open space. If you go to Cape San Blas be prepared for a politically charged vibe (several flags and banter endorsing one of the presidential candidates), a lot of alcohol consumption on the beach and more young people than families. We did have a nice beach week but would not stay at this house nor return to Cape San Blas again.

Cape San Blas is a family destination, as persons under 25 are not allowed to rent. Our beach chairs are aluminum so they do not rust, but I did find one to be broken after this stay. This guest was not charged a fee for departing late, even though it slows the cleaners, she was charged for having pets on the furniture, which is expressly prohibited in our lease and caused the cleaner substantially more work. The guest is unhappy to be charged for her uncleanliness and felt like we should have cleaned up behind her animal(s). We did, this guest arrived to a spotless unit and we keep it clean for all our guests! We do not provide a beach tent for guests' use and our beach cart is fully functional! Our gas grill is barely over 1 year old but somehow two tanks of gas got consumed in a very short period so I can only surmise someone left the gas grill burning for an extended period (unsupervised). Understand this guests bad review for what it is, retaliatory, I left her a bad review first and would not allow them to return. They depleted my fire extinguisher and somehow all cleaning utensils simultaneously disappeared. We have 15 dinner knives, 15 spoons, and 11 forks. There is absolutely a ramp to the beach for those who cannot navigate stairs, this guest apparently did not see it. We have great reviews and remain ready for our happy guests!

Perfect for families & wonderful location

Upon arrival, we were greeted by Jim, who was extremely nice! The house was extremely clean and smelled fantastic! There was plenty of room for everyone to stay and plenty of bathrooms for use at the same time. Kitchen had everything we needed. Our favorite part was the pool, which is like a two minute walk from the house (map doesn't do it justice). It was never crowded and the people in the neighborhood are super nice. The beach is a little more of a walk, but nothing terrible and there is a handicapped parking spot at the "clubhouse" if someone needs it. The deck was peaceful at night! Beds were comfy. Was a great place to stay and would choose this place over and over again!

This week was exactly what we needed. After being locked in our houses for two and one half months, it was nice to get together and relax. We loved the beach and enjoyed quiet nights in the condo playing games.

Cape San Blas is the perfect destination for relaxation! Whether at the pool or the beach, both are very close by! Our back deck overlooks a lake where kids and adults can enjoying feeding dozens of turtles!
