Direct Beachfront, gorgeous sunsets, gated community, north Cape near state park

*Our home books Saturday to Saturday*

Direct beachfront access! You'll fall in love with our beachfront townhome on Cape San Blas, FL! Perfect for a couples getaway or trip with friends or family, this home has it all - three bedrooms (plus a sleeper sofa!), three and a half baths, a fully stocked kitchen, separate living/entertaining and sleeping spaces, and the most incredible view of the gulf. Even better, it's just steps from the ocean. No need to haul everything down to the beach for the day when you have easy access to where you're staying - for a quick trip inside to make lunch or take a nap. We hope you'll take the opportunity to catch the sunset from one of the three beachfront porches, have a bonfire and s'mores on the beach, and enjoy the restful, uncrowded beach that we've been visiting since 1995. It's truly a getaway and we look forward to sharing it with you!

Great Vacation Rental
Wonderful! Our third year at this rental. Can’t find a better place to rent and Cape San Blas is the best hidden gem of the Emerald coast. Ashley is easy to work with, she keeps you informed and checks with you during your stay to make sure all is going well. Can’t wait for next year!!

Blessed week
The condo was amazing very clean and well stocked. Views from the deck were out of this world beautiful. Love everything about the location and the condo except… too many stairs for older folks like us with Arthur Ritis following us around. The master on the main level would’ve made it perfect. But overall I highly recommend to anyone with strong legs.

Condo on the beach
Overall it was a good visit. The drawback was neighbors on one side that smoked on their balcony and neighbors on the other side had three dogs that barked. The balconies are not designed with privacy in mind. The view was good

Our family really enjoyed this getaway. Great location right on the beach! One thing to know is the stairs are open slotted so for smaller children that may be a factor. Great property though!

PERFECT SPOT ON THE GULF
We really enjoyed our stay this past week. The unit was just perfect. Furnishings and beds were very comfortable and the unit was spotless upon our arrival. The kitchen was well stocked with more than we needed. I think the balconies and beautiful view of the beach was our favorite spot. Didn't even have to leave the deck to see the sunsets. Our host, Ashley, was very helpful with check in and was very responsive to any of the questions we had after check in. We look forward to returning again in the same spot.

Perfect location. Beachside with all the amenities. If you’re looking for a good place to walk around away from the beach go to Appalachicola lots of neat shops. Then eat lunch at the Grill. The shrimp poboys are wonderful.

A nice place with an amazing view!
We spent a week here and overall it was great. I can't imagine a better location inside the community with easier access to the beach than this unit. The stairs off the living room deck meet the stone walkway that goes behind the units to the boardwalk (several steps up to the walkway, a very very short distance, then several steps down to the sand) so getting to the beach and back was quick and easy. The condo itself was roomy and comfortable but one thing I never noticed in the pictures or read in the property description is that the stairs leading to the bedrooms on the third and fourth floors are open--there are no backs on each of the stairs. Thankfully there was a baby gate in one of the closets that we were able to use to block our little dog from accessing the stairs. The kitchen was well stocked with plates, glasses, etc. but the condition of the cooking utensils and pots and pans was disappointing. We aren't picky about cookware by any means but when bacon sticks to the nonstick pan it's pretty bad. If you plan to cook most of your own meals during your stay like we did, I'd suggest bringing your own cookware. Also, if you plan to grill, check out the grill ahead of time so that your menu/meal time isn't thwarted as ours was. We found the grill in really rough shape. It obviously hadn't been cleaned in quite some time and the rust build up around the eyes prevented the gas from getting through. The grill brush was melted and wasn't able to be used to clean the grates. We used aluminum foil to remove as much rust as possible and instead of placing food directly on to the grill we used a flat pan to sear meat on. If you plan to use the Brita pitcher for water, bring a filter. The one in the pitcher says it's new but it definitely isn't as water pours right through. We enjoyed ourselves despite the few issues we encountered and feel better prepared for future family trips. This was our first family vacation and hope to return to beautiful Cape San Blas soon.

Great location for a relaxing beach vacation.
This rental has ample space and is located in a perfect part of Cape San Blas. There are enough people nearby for interaction (and people watching) if you want, but it feels very private. The sunsets are directly outside your windows and you can watch from the beach or from your deck. We keep our dinners very simple--its vacation!--and the kitchen has everything we need. It feels very clean and the linens are nice.
