About this property

Direct Beachfront, gorgeous sunsets, gated community, north Cape near state park

*Our home books Saturday to Saturday*

Direct beachfront access! You'll fall in love with our beachfront townhome on Cape San Blas, FL! Perfect for a couples getaway or trip with friends or family, this home has it all - three bedrooms (plus a sleeper sofa!), three and a half baths, a fully stocked kitchen, separate living/entertaining and sleeping spaces, and the most incredible view of the gulf. Even better, it's just steps from the ocean. No need to haul everything down to the beach for the day when you have easy access to where you're staying - for a quick trip inside to make lunch or take a nap. We hope you'll take the opportunity to catch the sunset from one of the three beachfront porches, have a bonfire and s'mores on the beach, and enjoy the restful, uncrowded beach that we've been visiting since 1995. It's truly a getaway and we look forward to sharing it with you!

Great condo on Cape San Blas with beautiful views! Have stayed in the area before and having the 3rd bedroom and easy beach access were huge pluses for us. Well stocked and ready for families. Just a nice piece of paradise!

Great rooms with full views of the ocean.Kitchen pots were found in the bathroom closet and although there was a mixer and pans for baking, there was no baking spatula. Bedding for the fold out had a hole in it. Spice cabinet was less than advertised. Salt and Pepper. We appreciated the beach chairs and the beach itself was fantastic. Felt very safe.However, overall we had a wonderful time.

Hi there! I’m so glad you enjoyed the beach and views! Thanks for letting me know about the spices and spatula- I’ll get right to addressing those issues. Sounds like we need to replace that pull out bedding too. I’m not sure about the pots but will figure out what needs to be reorganized so items are where they belong! For the future, it is helpful when guests let us know about things immediately, so we have the chance to rectify any missing or damaged items. I try to be highly responsive to my guests and take care of any issues as soon as possible.

We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely return! The ocean views were incredible and could be enjoyed from all three private balconies—each level had its own space overlooking the water, which made the home feel extra special.The unit was spotless upon arrival and clearly very well cared for. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, including quality kitchen tools and bakeware, which made cooking meals easy and enjoyable.This home was also extremely family-friendly. The beach closet was thoughtfully stocked with beach chairs and sand toys for the kids, which was such a nice bonus. While there are quite a few stairs since the home spans three levels, it was completely worth it for the views and added privacy.Overall, an amazing place to stay with beautiful views, great amenities, and a comfortable, welcoming feel. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful location and unit

We loved our stay here! It was very clean and perfectly sized for our group (4 adults, 2 children). This was probably the most well stocked kitchen I have ever rented, lots of cookware and appliances available. Great beachfront view, steps away from the beach. Also appreciated the community pool on the red flag days where we could not swim in the ocean. Check in was easy and great communication with Ashley.

Wonderful location, and loved the ease of access to the beach. Plus, the pool was not far from us, at all. Coolest thing was doing a bonfire on the beach. Great condo for the family. It did have a lot of stairs, but we taught our toddler how to use the stairs safely and we had such a smooth week. Loved the balconies over looking the beach. Ashley was super helpful during our stay!

Last Minute Spring Break

Great location on the beach! Listened to waves crash all night, played in them during the day. Close to state park so when the waves get too crazy on the beach we could take kids to Eagle Harbor and play on the sand flat in St Joseph Bay. Great location!

About the host

Hosted by Ashley Ayris

Host profile image
I have owned this home since 1995 when I first visited with my husband and two girls. We fell in love instantly with the pace and beauty of Cape San Blas and have owned two properties in the area over the years. My girls are grown now but we all still visit our beautiful home away from home when we can!

Why they chose this property

The location of this property on Cape San Blas is unmatched. Besides the obvious beachfront draw, the community of Barrier Dunes is located at the edge of the residential portion of the cape which bumps up against state-preserved state park land. The beauty and privacy this location bring truly allow its visitors to unplug and soak up the sunsets.

What makes this property unique

We pride ourselves on keeping a well-stocked home. We hope you'll find everything you need in the home during your stay (if not, please let us know for future visitors!). We even include a starter set of disposables like paper towels, toilet paper, and soaps, so that you're not in a bind if you get in town late. We've tried to think of everything, since we ourselves stay in the home regularly.
