Nice but Property Needs Updating

The location of the property is right next to the ocean. You could hear the ocean waves from your bedroom window, which was really cool. The updates that have been done to the property were nice. However, the properties kitchen needs an overall. Also there were places throughout the property that needed a deep clean, specifically in the bathrooms. Overall not the worst or the best place I've stayed at.

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.

January retreat

The good things about this unit, it sits steps from the beach, has lovely views of the surf from multiple windows, it is very open with great lighting, great seating for reading or watching TV, nice dishwasher, stove and refrigerator, lovely dinnerware. The bad things, although the listing says everything is new, there were many things not in good shape. The counters in the kitchen are in desperate need of replacing. I misread the description, thought it said there was stainless steel cookware to use. The cookware is all nonstick and well worn. If I had known that, I would’ve brought my own pots. One of the instructions is to refill the Britta water filter, I’m not sure what happened to it, but there was no such filter. We did drink the tap water and it was fine, but for those people who would like to have a water filter, you need to bring your own. The shower curtain in the master bath needs to be replaced, it’s not clean. The shower nozzle in the master bath drips, so you have to leave it off of the connection dripping down into the Drain. The mattress is soft in the master bedroom, the listing said it was new, but the side closest to the door felt hollowed out like you were sleeping in a little low spot. That’s a matter of preference, we prefer a firmer mattress, this one was soft. Lamps in the sitting area did not have switches, not usable. For a unit that was recently remodeled per description, there were a lot of things in need of repair.

Sunsets are breathtaking!!

My 13 year old daughter and I had the BEST week here! Literally everything about this property was perfect…I can’t say that I have any complaints or concerns at all. I appreciated the beach chairs and big umbrella; there were also sand toys and a small cooler in the laundry room...Dave literally thought of everything! The beach was never crowded; in fact, all 6 days we were there, there was never more than a dozen other people out. I absolutely love this location and look forward to my next vacation!!

Hiccup but satisfied with resolution

Things don’t always go perfectly, but as long as they are resolved, it’s OK. It was close to 10 PM when we arrived. We found that the unit had not been cleaned. It would have been better if communication responses with the manager could have been received before we went to sleep for the evening, but it was late and I was doubtful I would hear anything. I thought we were going to have to sleep in the vehicle, but we found clean sheets and were able to replace the ones on the bed. The cleaner was able to come out the following afternoon and did an excellent job. To make up for the issue , the manager offered an extra night, which we were able to accept. We enjoyed our stay and would consider this place again.

Spectacular views and proximity to beach

My daughter and I stayed here for 4 nights. Loved the place and LOVED how close to water we were. I would advise to stop at grocery store prior to getting to Cape San Blas. Visited State Park and took a day to go to St.George Island. Loved shops on Main St of Port St.Joe If you like the absence of fast food joints everywhere and few people you’ll love this place. I loved this location!

Worked well for our stay

Property met our needs. A few items to shore up microwave not working, fireplace not to be used, directions for TV did not work but was able to get some channels and used my account to get ESPN for bowl games, etc. Neighbors underneath us were very loud at night with kids running, jumping, screaming and adults participated. Could hear everything. This was the one reason we would probably not stay here again.

Perfect spot for our quick weekend

Part of our family was in town for a weekend wedding and we wanted to be right on the beach. This was a perfect spot for our party of four, one adult with three kids. Coffee on the deck listening to the waves was wonderful, and the kids enjoyed going down to the beach and hanging out. Not far at all to downtown St. Joe, and very close to a convenience store on the cape for any little item you may have forgotten. Upon arrival, we had a quick question and the owner responded promptly and was very kind and helpful. Overall, a very nice stay and we would definitely visit again.

Great location! Overall, great unit!

The location of this unit is so great; just a few steps to the sand! The views from inside as well as on the back porch are beautiful. Overall, the unit met our needs and we enjoyed our stay. It was clean and well decorated, and there were plenty of towels. The kitchen needs major TLC; new countertops and cabinetry. The secondary bathroom shower also needs attention; shower handle was extremely finicky and was hard to turn on/adjust temperature and The water pressure was really bad. There is no overhead lighting in the unit (or ceiling fans which would be nice) so you have to use lamps in bedrooms/living room which do not produce enough light. There are a few wall lights in kitchen/dining and bathroom, but they have amber colored bulbs in them which do not produce very good light at all; very dim/orange. With just a couple more updates, this unit would be perfect. Even still, we had a great time and enjoyed our stay.
