We had a wonderful time. Beautiful location , clean home, wonderful view. The master shower could use more room for shampoo, soap etc. but that was our only “complaint”.

We had no Wi-Fi the whole time we were there so everyone had used their data limits and couldn’t get TVs to work in the bedrooms. The group or football people so Saturday we had to watch just the one TV and couldn’t watch a variety of games no one ever came and checked on our service order about the Wi-Fi. I called on Thursday night when we arrived we called on Friday. I sent another one on Saturday and they said they would get to it ASAP in order I’ve been put in, but it never was fixed..

Thank you for staying at Paradise By The Gulf and for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry the Wi-Fi outage affected your data usage and prevented the bedroom TVs from working, especially when your group wanted to watch different games. I completely understand how frustrating that must have been. Unfortunately, service interruptions can occasionally occur in Cape San Blas that are outside of our control. We truly appreciate your understanding when these unexpected outages happen. It is also a great reminder of one of the many reasons we love this area—there are so many wonderful local restaurants and spots to enjoy, many of which have Game Day screens, great food, and a fun atmosphere! We hope you were still able to enjoy your time at Paradise By The Gulf and experience some of the beauty, restaurants, and activities Cape San Blas has to offer. We would love to welcome you back for another stay!

Nice weekend.

Great location and perfect views. Keyless entry was not working. Beds, pillows, and towels could be improved. Needed some updating with respect to items that did not work properly (ie door locks, oven, washer). Would rent again if items in working order.

November getaway

Our short beach getaway was amazing! Our rental was situated perfectly by the water....only a few steps to the sand & waves. The sunsets were spectacular! I would totally rent this property again.
