Serenity Now

The house was very clean and fit all the needs for our large party. The driveway is a little hard to maneuver. The kitchen is really nice but the pots and pans are outdated , there wasn’t a crockpot like most rentals have, and only two cookie sheets, made it difficult to cook our meals. It is right in the beach really like 50 feet from the porch but be careful the porch stairs are narrow.

Beautiful house

This house is beautiful! It was clean when we arrived and well furnished with a great view. We found beautiful sea shells right in front of the house. The ice maker was a plus. Very roomy and comfortable. The couch was new and nice! The kitchen was well stocked with a beautiful view!! Beautiful home!!! The only negative for us was all the stairs and there is no elevator. If you have joint issues then it’s difficult. We also were woke up every am because the staging area for the sand dunes was right next to the house but that’s not the owners fault.

Great stay.

Only down side was the biting flys on the beach. Really bothersome. Is it all year long? Even bug spray didnt help. The local store recommended spray tan with insect repent but that didnt help either. Wish we had of been told before hand. Couldn't even sit out on the beach.

Beautiful, clean home right on the beach. The double porches we’re amazing with gorgeous views. This rental had a fully equipped kitchen with literally everything you need. Dog friendly!! The beach was incredible and quiet. Local food was amazing. We had a great stay here and plan on staying at this property again in the future. We highly recommend it! We were very happy this rental.

Family Vacation

We came to Serenity Now for family vacation. The house was great, beautiful views, and nicely updated inside. The cleanliness upon arrival was not great. I called the property manager early in the week and my call was never returned. Would recommend 4 wheel drive for the driveway. Otherwise enjoyed our stay in Port St Joe.

Delighted when Governor opened rental properties. House was very accommodating for our 6 adults and 6 children! Shared family space in kitchen, dining and tv space was very nice! Access to the beach is fantastic and the raised deck enabled parents to view their older children from the deck on the beach. Parking was not conducive for our 3 vehicles and boat. And the outdoor shower is completely rusted out and did not allow showers. We would definitely recommend owner update outdoor shower. Our large family would definitely rent this property in the future! Great location on Cape as well!!

Great house!

The house is in a very good location.. close to shops and amazing views!! Very clean and true to pictures. The only down side is the driveway. Not much room for more than 2 cars. Overall great place!! Glad to see they are restoring the beaches after hurricane Michael. We’ve been going to the cape for years .. truly a special place😊

Great property! We really enjoyed our stay!

Everything was in very good condition. The furnishings and decor are beautiful. The appliances, beds, and tv’s are very nice. The kitchen is well stocked and has lots of cabinet space. The patio furniture and large back porch are great for breakfasts and watching the sunsets. The built in wine cooler and ice maker are very nice too, but put off lots of heat in the adjoining cabinets. The parking is a little tight and limited for a 4 bedroom home, especially if you have a boat or other trailer. There is no fish cleaning station which would be nice. The trash filled up well before our week was over and did not pick up daily as expected. Overall a very nice propertyI would recommend!

Great Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful updated home. Awesome location and distance to the beach. Family room furniture not very comfortable and had stains and rips, but we were gone most of the time. Bathrooms were spotless and up to date. Main issue was housekeeping did not clean kitchen well. There was dust and dead bugs on kitchen exhaust and dust on Kitchen lights. Kitchen cabinets had film on them. Comforter was stained in at least one of upstairs rooms.

Serenity Indeed!

Visited Cape San Blas years ago and returned to find the untouched beauty of beaches and high white dunes intact. What a lovely area! Really enjoyed the breezes off the decks and listening to the surf at night. The house is spacious, light and very clean. Internet worked very well. Made several visits to Indian Pass Raw bar for oysters on the half shell, fantastic! Delicious local shrimp, as well. Of note, a convienence store is a 1-2 min walk from house with gas station for any urgent needs. Thank you for a lovely stay, already missing it! And a special thank you for allowing the dogs, they had a terrific time!

We will be back to Serenity Now very soon!

On a whim we booked a last minute trip to Cape San Blas. We have stayed at the cape several times in the past but never in the fall! Boy have we been missing out! The beaches are quieter and the weather is PERFECT! Bonus.... Serenity Now was the icing on the cake! The pricing is right and on top of that they had a 20% discount for the fall! All was fresh and clean in the home, it was very well appointed and cozy, the appliances are top notch and the kitchen was well stocked. We are in love with this home and have already booked it for next summer. Thank you No Worries for your friendly service and finding us our all time favorite cape house!

Best Beach

I would have to say the beach at Cape San Blas is the most beautiful beach ever. The house was incredible and we have no complaints about it at all. The fresh seafood was to die for! That's including what we caught and cooked and what the local restaurants had as well.

Great House!!

What an amazing house!!! The property was easy to find in a quiet location with direct beach access. We were immediately greeted by the fresh smell of a well taken care of house along with modern décor. We spent 7 relaxing days at Serenity Now and enjoyed every moment. The only negative thing was we had to leave. We have already encouraged many of our close friends to check out the property and we plan on staying there again on our next trip to the Cape.
