About this property

Beachfront Bliss: Heated Pool, Stunning Sunsets, Steps from State Park.

Welcome to Sunsation—a gulf-front stunner in Secluded Dunes on Cape San Blas.

This 4BR, 4.5BA beach house sleeps 12 and brings the vacation vibes with a heated private pool, screened-in porch, and direct boardwalk to the sand.

Soak up panoramic Gulf views with coffee at sunrise or cocktails at golden hour. Inside, spread out in open living spaces, a bunk room for the kids, and a fully stocked kitchen made for memory-making.

Dogs are welcome, and there’s even an EV charger, fast Wi-Fi, and an outdoor shower for sandy paws and salty toes. Sunsation has an elevator that services each floor of the home.

Walk to the State Park, grill out under the stars, and breathe deep in one of the most peaceful, untouched corners of Florida. Whether you’re chasing sunsets, slow mornings, or just a little more connection, Sunsation delivers the magic.

In walking distance to the state park. House was clean and beautiful. Western facing for beautiful sunset views. Pool was a must for us with the kids to get a break from the sand when needed. Definitely would come back!

Amazing!

We loved this house! The pictures really don’t do it justice. It’s one of the last houses before the state park and the views are incredible. We have been coming to CSB for 15 years and we all agreed this was our favorite home so far. Can’t wait to return!

Perfect Location and beautiful house

Perfect for our party of 8, plenty of sleeping spaces and bathrooms. The front porch swing was a beautiful spot to sit and read. We loved this area and the quietness. Kids loved the pool in the morning and ocean in the afternoon. All the beach toys they had were well enjoyed. Would definitely rrecommend this house.

Owners were such a pleasure to meet and rent from. The house was more than described and we enjoyed our stay at "Sunsation". We plan on this being a regular vacation spot and look forward to seeing you again!
