Peaceful and great location
This house was perfect for a family vacation! So close to the beach. The private boardwalk was wonderful, especially when you have kids and use wagons to carry beach gear. Kitchen was the best stocked of any VRBO. The private pool was a Plus+++ plenty of restaurants within 10-15 minute drive.

Beautiful but noisy
Loved the house but the 3 flights of stairs got old real quick. The master suite was incredible, but guest were uncomfortable going through bedroom to get to the hot tub. Be warned there is a lot of construction going on around the house and it is very noisy from early morning through evening, 7 days a week. It's a long walk down the boardwalk and then over the sand dunes, so you get quite the workout lugging all your beach supplies to the beach and back. The beach is beautiful but beware cars drive back and forth in front of you all day. With all that said I gave the rating of 5 stars, the house was well equipped and beautiful.

Family vacay
This property looks exactly like pictures online! Perfect location, distance to Cape and Port St Joe restaurants is not too far. Beach towels available and heated pool were added bonuses. A quick fix to the ice maker on fridge was was immediately taken care of when we notified host. The only recommendation I would provide would be to improve WiFi strength to allow all guests equal tv access, the signal didn’t allow viewing in guest bedrooms. The living room and master were fine, all others we couldn’t access. We had poor weather two days and this would have been helpful. Overall it was a lovely trip and great place to stay with family and our pup. Thank you for sharing your home!

Great Week at Dolphin Lookout
We had a great week at Dolphin Lookout. Loved the flowers and note on arrival. We had some minor maintenance issues and the staff were very responsive and so great to work with. The screened porch was great for sitting out in the evenings. Our family loved the pool and hot tub. We loved this area and plan to come back again soon. Again thanks for everything!

Absolutely Perfect
We had a wonderful time at this property. It was perfect for large family group. Nicely decorated, organized and well stocked. The view was amazing. The pool and hot tub were especially enjoyable for the kids and the temp was warm allowing them to swim in December. We love that this property was pet friendly allowing us to bring our dog to the beach for the first time. All questions and needs were addressed immediately. Donna from Be Our Guest is professional and very responsive. Little touches were special like a small Xmas tree since we arrived on Xmas day. Would love to stay here again .

Wonderful week at the beach
We had a wonderful time with family at Dolphin Lookout! The location is amazing...quiet and beautiful. The home has everything you need to be very comfortable, even while making Thanksgiving dinner in someone else's kitchen. Being able to see the sunrise and sunset from the deck was incredible! Thank you for sharing your home with us...we had the best time!

Beautiful home and location but....
This property was one of the nicest homes we've rented in the area. We travel to the panhandle every other year for a summer vacation. The private access to the beach was perfect. The pool was fantastic, and the home was very well-maintained. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need to feel at home. We loved having the hot tub on the master bedroom level to enjoy in the evenings. The screened-in patio on the main floor made sitting outside and eating our dinners enjoyable while watching the gulf. The only drawback on this property was the 24-hour surveillance cameras pointed right at the pool area. While I understand the need to keep an eye on the property, this made me feel very uncomfortable and was a constant distraction. The entrance to the house faced the pool, where the Ring door camera monitored the comings and goings every day and the pool area. Overall, I loved the house and the location. I would think twice about renting again due to the heavy surveillance.

First time to the Cape, longtime 30a vacationer
Was great being on a beachfront property in Cape San Blas. The neighborhood was quiet, convenient and naturally pretty. The house was well appointed and taken care of. Our only issue was the beach area. Depending on the weather and tide movement, the water was sometimes muddy or green and we ended up going to a beach at the end of the cape which was much more like a Destin water quality. The next day, this situation inverted and the water at the house was much clearer than down at the end of the cape. We very much enjoyed the vibe of the area and the quantness of the cape, we will be coming back. Thx

Beautiful home and location! We had a peaceful, relaxing week. The weather was perfect, the pool was a Godsend for my mom! The beach was perfect as well, short walk to and from,. Only recommendation would be to upgrade the living room furniture, it is not very comfortable. Other than that, I would definitely look forward to returning to this beautiful getaway!!!

Great Kitchen
We stayed here for Thanksgiving and it was perfect for that. The kitchen was well stocked with double oven, crock pot, toaster oven, mixer, decent knives, and plenty of cookware. However, the living room furniture was extremely old and uncomfortable. The master bed was extremely soft/worn out and the 3rd floor queen mattress was also not in great condition.

It’s the Little Details That Matter
We had a wonderful experience at this house. The house was big, modern, and had a good view of the beach. The part I didn’t expect was the little details that showed the owner truly cared. They provided full size versions of all the accessories you would need at home (soap bar, shampoo, dish detergent, dish soap). Everything was labeled so you didn’t have to guess which switch did what and how to operate everything. Even to the smallest detail of adding a felt pad to the are behind the toilet seat so it wouldn’t bang when you opened the lid. I appreciated everything! The upstairs master bedroom was amazing! We didn’t expect a huge shower with a rain style head with a steam sauna in the shower. Combined with the hot sub, it was like being at our own personal spa! We could’ve just stayed up there and been happy. As for the kids, they provided a high chair and toys for out 1 year old to use. Our other child (our golden doodle) had a nice sized lawn in the back to poop and they provided a pooper scooper so you don’t have to bend over. Finally, everything was clean and in good working order. Some places we’ve stayed in have broken handles or locks and we had no problem with that at all! No one had a complaint and we will definitely try to book this again!
