Serenity Beachfront Condo at Cape San Blas

10/10 Excellent

"Host was very responsive and even called me when we had a question. She was willing to work with us even though we left early because of the hurricane. We loved the easy access to the pool and beach. We will be back again!"

⛳️New Home, New Pool,Private Beach Access, & Putting Green⛳️

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing Stay at Cape San Blas! We had a wonderful stay at Cape San Blas with three families, and this home was perfect for our group. It was spacious, comfortable, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed, with plenty of room to gather while still offering privacy when needed.The kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals, and the living and dining areas were ideal for sharing meals, playing games, and making memories. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, comfortable, and convenient for everyone.Miranda was a fantastic host—helpful, responsive, and wonderful to work with throughout our stay. Her hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable.The location was excellent, with easy beach access even for a large group carrying plenty of gear. We loved the beautiful balcony views, which were perfect for morning coffee and relaxing. The pool was another highlight and provided a great place to cool off and have fun.Everything about the property worked perfectly for our group. Between the beautiful home, excellent amenities, convenient beach access, stunning views, and inviting pool, our vacation was truly memorable. We highly recommend this property for any family or group getaway and would absolutely love to return!"

100 STEPS TO BEACH — RENOVATED 2BR/2BA PET FRIENDLY CONDO AT CAPE SAN BLAS!

10/10 Excellent

"If you are looking for an easy, convenient, clean and tidy place close to the beach, this will fulfill your needs easily! We have been coming to the Cape for years and this was a lovely, and convenient location for us. Emily is an amazing host, who was very easy to book with, get in touch with if we needed anything, and she was a delight to deal with throughout. We were looking for a dog friendly accommodation and Emily has set her condo up to have pets. Her condo is incredibly clean and tidy and we all loved our stay. Easy, quick access to the beach from the condo, and she also has a good selection of beach items to use while staying (we brought our own) If you know the Cape - you are close to Scallop Cove for convenience and items you may have forgotten. We didn't need a massive beach place for simply my wife and I and our guests, this place worked perfectly for us. The only word to the wise is that I will say is that this is a condo with potential guests above you, and these condos have paper thin walls and floors. So, simply get to know the other guests and you'll be absolutely fine! If you need a quick getaway to the Cape and have a smaller party - look no further - you'll love it."

Private Pool & Hot Tub - Game Room - Sleeps 16 - Half Block to Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The house is beautiful and so close to the beach! It was clean and all the beds were very comfortable! There were plenty of towels for our party of 6. The kitchen is very well equipped! The pool was wonderful. We had a wonderful week for our 2026 family vacation! You can’t go wrong with Port St. Joe. The beaches are clean and pet friendly. The town is quaint and quiet and has cute shops. This is our favorite beach by far, and we’ve been to pretty much every beach from Fort Morgan to Port St. Joe so far. Thank you, Sherry, for sharing your beautiful beach house with us!"

NEW The Funky Oyster A4 w/Pool access Port St Joe

10/10 Excellent

"The house was very clean and spacious. The first night was a little rough but it was mostly due to the group we went with. They left after the second night and went to PC because there 4 teenagers were bored. Our kids are grown. My husband and I stayed and enjoyed the beach and the pool. I will say that the pool is a little walk from the house. If you plan on grilling just no they have community grills set up in different areas. All in all for the money it is a great place to visit. It not for people with kids that like to shop or just want to walk on the beach from where they are staying. Port St Joe is more for people who want to get away and take it easy."
