Why the Owner Chose Cape San Blas
We love Cape San Blas. We have been on many beach vacations but Cape San Blas is by far our favorite. Our first visit was in 2002 when a neighbor told us that Cape San Blas had been named the #1 beach in the USA.
The Unique Benefits at this condominium
The great walking beach, where you can walk all of the way to the lighthouse and barely see a soul, bonfires on the beach, the atmosphere in the condo which is enhanced by the custom lighting, and the large deck overlooking the pool and beach.
Owner's Map of Cape San Blas
Hi, We are the Pridemores a family of 5 from Atlanta. We are the original owners of two of the Dunes Club units. At the time of construction we decided to make $40,000 in upgrades to each of the units, which included granite countertops, travertine floors, enlarged kitchen, custom lighting and more. We had so much fun in designing, decorating and setting up the condos, it was truly a family activity for almost a year.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful condo. We had a great time, and the weather was fantastic. We just fell in love. The condo was perfect, and you’re right, the beds were wonderful! Stop by the Garden if you have time when you’re in Athens. Bonnie

A wonderful place to spend our first full month in Florida. The beach was such a treat - long walks for us and our Bichon, Yuki. He just loved the freedom to run! We also loved St. Joseph State Park. Such gorgeous beaches and dunes. All and all, a very special place - this Cape San Blas. We shall return. Your condo is lovely and so well equipped. Loved the kitchen! February was sunny but we would have loved more warmth and too much wind to enjoy the balcony. Oh, well. Thanks for sharing your place. Sincerely, Jon, Susan and Yuki Estell Springs TN

We had a fabulous family vacation! Is is so quiet, it's almost like having your own private beach. Your condo is beautiful, thank you so much for sharing it with us. Jacob: The condo is cool, but the kid room is a little small. The beach is quiet. I went sailing.

We have had an absolutey amazing time here. We are so sad to be leaving tomorrow. The accomodations and the view were terrific. Some restaurants we liked here were the Loggerhead Grille(much more fancy than we expected), the Sunset Coastal Grille was good too. We didn't think much of Toucans in Mexico Beach. If anyone drives to Panama City Beach - Pinapple Willy's is a great place to eat. Apalachicola is a fun sightseeing place to take a day trip to. We loved the serenity and privateness of Cape San Blas. We had wonderful weather this week. Thanks a lot.

What a delightful place! I knew the condo was well equipped and luxurious from the on line writeup on vrbo but the actuality is SO much more. My daughter and granddaughter were just blown away by the granite bar and marble shower - which they both just had to use. We sampled Pepper's Mexican Grill(excellent especially the fajitas) and Sunset Coastal Grill, which everyone found to be excellent too. All in all it was a very relaxing week in a beautiful location. Many thanks! Dan and Ellen

Thank you for sharing your beautiful beach home with our family this week. The beach here on Cape San Blas is absolutely the most beautiful, serene place we have seen in many years. The condo is fabulous, well equipped and the beach view is amazing. Horseback riding on the beach and kayaking in the bay were the highlights of our trip. Thanks again, Gary, Lisa, Steph and Laura
