Family vacation to the beach

We loved our stay at this property. Lots of amenities apart from the beach (pickleball, pools, rode bicycles). The beach was a short walk away. This property is very close to the state park as well.

Just like before when we stayed at this property , we loved it. We will choose this property every time we come back to the cape if it’s available. We love the pools, playground, how close the beach and state park are. The pond and turtles keep us entertained during our evening dinner sitting outside on the balcony. Thanks for another great stay.

Love the Cape

Needs updating and deep cleaning. Carpet, vents, and sofa could use deep cleaning or replacement. Overall unit was ok, just not as nice as others we have used at Barrier Dunes. Complex is fantastic.

Ange's review

Wonderful. A little dusty- intake vents and fans. Check in- finding the correct condo was confusing. THe after hours staff were great in helping me. Office staff very nice. A small exercise room in club house would be nice.

Great beach trip, clean townhome

This property was very clean and a nice time was had by all. The location in proximity to the beach was a good walk, but thankfully we are seasoned CSB vacationers, so we knew where to access the public beach area and where to go for smaller crowds. The swimming pool across from the home was nice, except after 10:00 pm, when it became loud and rowdy, however, I may be an old fuddy-duddy that goes to bed too early! The kitchen could use an updated can opener that actually works, and the stove top needs to be repaired, as one of the burners didn’t work and we didn’t get the opportunity to eat our baked beans, which weren’t huge issues, just some maintenance repairs. All in all, we had a nice stay and enjoyed the short, yet sweet, vacation!

Decent but needs updates

Close enough to beach and we enjoyed our trip overall. Good storage. Hate to leave a bad review but… we would not stay here again. The most crowded area of all of Cape San Blas. AC can’t be below 72 “or will freeze.” Definitely still a bit warm for our comfort level even with all curtains closed, ceiling fans, and box fan running. We ran the same load of laundry in the dryer all week and it literally never dried. The oven takes much longer than it should to cook food through to temp. Air return in master needs to be cleaned. Living room breaker tripped about once an hour and had to be reset each time. Hole in deck off Master right outside of door, dangerous for young kids. Paid a lot more than what was worth this time around.

Our Favorite Condo Complex

It took 4 phone calls to get a representative on the phone to confirm the check in process. Once we got the property mgmt company on the phone, the process went smoothly. When we arrived at the unit, it was clean and decorated nicely, but still had an old cigarette smell to it. Our water pressure was lack luster. We wrote it off as a possible repair happening in the area, however, we had the same issues on the 3rd and 4th night of our stay. I attempted to call and report the issue, but the automated system timed out on us 3 separate times while waiting for someone to answer. It also says on the website site that if you have problems, you can contact the utility companies yourself. The air conditioning was subpar and the condo reached temperatures up to 76 during the mid morning hours because the note above the thermostat warned of the air conditioner freezing up if set below 72. The unit literally ran constantly. I still haven’t heard from Pristine Properties after emailing them at 9pm last night. The tv in the 1st floor room does not work. Unknown about the top level tv as we were too exhausted after a day of beaching. The other appliances seemed to work well. Cape San Blas is an annual, sometimes more, trip for my family each year. It is gorgeous and I highly recommend staying at the Barrier Dunes. The location is perfect for beach and bay activities!
