We love this place! Can’t beat the location for the price. Beach is narrow so it can get packed if there are a lot of people but the condo itself is perfect for a family of 4.

The condo was very clean, easy instructions on arrival and departure routines, and in an excellent location. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The deck was large for hanging out and watching gorgeous evening sunsets. The condo is just a few steps away from the beach. The beach was private with very few people when we visited in October. There are a few local restaurants on the cape but lots more in Port St Joe. There is a bike path that spans the whole length of the cape. Wonderful biking views. We even had campfires at night right on the beach. Overall, a great experience. We plan on going back next year for fall break.

Great View and Good Location

Great location near the Trading Post (grocery) and shops. Location is great for a quiet stay right on the gulf. The unit could use some cleaning in the kitchen and bathroom, but overall it was nice stay! The views are great and you are steps from the beach. Further down the beach towards the state park is a bigger space on the beach, but perfect for a small group (just not a huge beachfront). The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had all the appliances and necessities. Easy check in and out procedures.

Great location

Close to the trading post and St Joe Seafood. Amazing location on the beach! 6 miles to the State park and 6 miles to 30A. This is an older unit that has been partially renovated and on the second floor so there are steps. The unit was clean. Our only real complaint was with the mattress in the master. We stayed 9 nights.

Clean comfortable unit with amazing sunsets.

Unit is as advertised. Very comfortable. Kitchen is supplied well enough to cook and eat. It even had dishwashing liquid and paper towels. The beds were comfortable. Soft, but comfortable. The deck facing the gulf is large and has a clear view. We were amazed with the sunsets. This is a relaxed life style. No hustle or bustle. Just laid back. Small intimate restaurant and a few shops.
