Great House!

This is a beautiful house in a great location. We have come to this area for several years and this has been our favorite. The access to the beach is great and even had some games for the kids to enjoy during some rainy days. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Best stay ever!

We had an unbelievable week at the Lighthouse! Three couples and 8 kids fit so comfortably and the downstairs game room and theatre were such a fun place for the kids to hang out. The house is gorgeous and so well equipped; the beach is wide and beautiful. We highly recommend this great rental and can’t wait to return!

Great Family Vacation Week

Property had exceptional amenities for children and teenagers - pool, game room, theatre room, and great layout. We began an annual tradition of spending a week at Cape San Blas when our children were young and now our week includes 10 grandchildren and visits from other family and friends. This beach house was great for this event and the best we have rented. We have already booked next year and everyone is excited about returning to this property.

Very Nice Vacation Home

This was the first time we stayed in Cape San Blas - The area was so nice and very peaceful! The house was amazing - great indoor and outdoor spaces ! The walk to the beach right outside the house was very easy and the pool was nice to have since we had double red flags all week! The game room was very well used and the bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice! I would rent this house again for sure!

Family Vacation

The Lighthouse is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. It has everything we needed and was plenty of house for 20 people. The theatre and game room were awesome for the kids. The kitchen had every thing you needed plus items for kids under 5 such as sippy cups, kids plates, pack n play, high chairs. We had red or double red flags every day so the pool was a necessity and came in huge for kids to swim in. All in all a wonderful place to stay for the week. 10 out of 10!
