The house had everything we needed and was a great location. The screened deck was our favorite spot. The community pool was small but was a great option when our girls wanted a break from the beach. And having our dogs with us, made it a true family vacation.

Great Beach

Property had a few deferred maintenance issues, but the showers and AC worked so we had a great time. The beach is as uncrowded as possible for Florida, and Port St Joe has a delightful downtown area. Overall, a great vacation. Check in/check out was super easy too.

2 the Beach

The location was perfect, the beach was not crowded. We loved the screened deck, when we weren't on the beach we were on the screened deck. The condo could use some updating. The living room furniture is worn & the beds could use new mattresses. But we loved that each bedroom has it's own bathroom plus and additional bathroom on the main level. The area was quiet and relaxing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at 2 the Beach!

Spring Break 2017

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house had everything we needed and enough room for our family. This is a three-story house, so there are lots of stairs. Convenient to pool and short walk to beach. The dog friendly beach was great and being spring break not crowded at all. The only negative comments are the two downstairs bedrooms. The headboard needs to be attached to the bed frame in the first one and in the last bedroom the bed squeaks terribly. The entire complex and the walkway to the beach could use new decking, beware of splinters if you are barefoot. Overall we had a great week and would definitely consider this property again.

Summer vacation

Property and surrounding houses sit right on standing water. Cesspool for mosquitos. Couldn’t sit on the patio or by the pool or outside near the house for any period of time. You couldn’t walk from the front to back yard with any beach gear, you have to take everything through the house. I would not recommend this location.

Great Location. Worn Down Property

The location was fantastic - literally 165 steps down a boardwalk to get to the beach. We couldn't have been any closer unless we were actually on a boat. That being said, the property is definitely worn down. The furniture in the living room and the bedrooms has seen much better days. Water damage on the ceiling around all the canister lights in the living room. The whole building also would shake from time to time... it was very disconcerting. And for our stay at least, the screen porch was unusable (with all the mosquitos) as half of the screen was missing from one of the large windows and the porch screen door was essentially falling off the hinges. With our toddler, it was a definite safety hazard. Communication with the property management company was great, but good communication can't overcome the disrepair of the rental. While I would go back to Cape San Blas, I wouldn't recommend this property especially for $600 a night.

2 The Beach

The house and location were very nice, although the house was a bit run-down and outdated. Overall, it was clean, but not deep-cleaned. It is well-furnished and the kitchen well-supplied. Property management had called prior to say that the pool would not be available during our stay, which was something we were looking forward to. They offered to try to find us an alternative location, but never called back. I had to call back to follow up. BUT, the house is lovely with a great location near a nice, uncrowded beach, the beautiful state park, horseback riding, and awesome restaurants. I would definitely stay at this property again.

Quiet Location & Needs Cleaning

Check-in was easy with the Smartlock entrance. Suzanne at the property management office was helpful with questions I had prior to our trip. When we arrived the house did not appear to be cleaned as all the bathrooms had hair on floor, sand on floors in 2nd bedroom, it appeared the bottom sheet was not changed in that same bedroom, there was a strong musty odor in kitchen near refrigerator, 2nd floor bathroom and in upstairs master bathroom, stains on all the bedroom quilts, one of the leatherette couches and curtains, and extra pillows and comforters thrown in floor closets. We spent about an hour upon arrival cleaning up which was not a pleasant experience or way to start a vacation. Aside from the home's lack of cleanliness, it does have a nice floorplan, in a quiet area with short walk to beach.
