Family Fun
Great location right on the beach. Very spacious with plenty of room to spread out. Nicely appointed and equipped. Great communication with the owner. Heated pool was a huge benefit as we had a major storm system come through and the rip tide flags were double red. Sunsets are beautiful.

Family Vacation
The house was perfect for our entire family to stay. We used every last bed and still had plenty of room. Our favorite parts were the dining room table large enough for all to sit, the outdoor decks, and the common areas. The parents also enjoyed that there was another common area for the kids :) The pool and beach were also a highlight. If you are on the fence, just book it. The house was perfect for our family vacation. We had an extreme amount of sun and beach fun and so many laughs with the family. The homeowner was very reactive when we encountered small issues in the house. THANKS!

Loved it!
Perfect location towards the North end, with great beach access. We walked for miles every day on uncrowded beach, which is dog friendly, unlike so many places in Florida. The main living area is on the top floor and the view is fantastic. Beds were comfortable. Huge kitchen table was great because we could set out jigsaw puzzles or games at one end, and have room to eat at the other. Overall a great stay, we have already reserved for next year!

Great ocean front home for family gathering
The house and property were gorgeous! Perfect view and location, although is bit of walk to beach. The pool was great to relax in and there was lots of outdoor seating. However, there were some concerns around the cleanliness and amenities of the house. The house was fairly dirty. For example, the ceiling fans were caked in dust and the floors made the bottom of our feet black. The vacuum did not appear to help. Some of the night stand shelves were covered in dust and hair. When we arrived, there was a big spill on the third floor deck that had leaked down to the second floor deck. We ended up cleaning it ourselves. Also, some basic amenities were lacking. Such as, there were no extra bath towels, sheets or pillows. There were only 2 dish towels in the whole kitchen. Other random things, like the bathtub drain not allowing the bath to fill and all of the beach chair straps being broken and umbrella broken were a bit frustrating. Overall, the house itself was beautiful and the Cape San Blas area is great! Just a few things were an inconvenience within the house that we wished we had known ahead of time.

Celebrating our 50th with Family
We are celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and a beach vacation with our kids and grandkids was the perfect way to celebrate , There are 14 of us and the house had lots of space for all. The kitchen had everything we needed , beds were comfortable and very clean.The furniture and decor is very coastal ,very cute.Rebecca is extremely nice ,easy to communicate with,quick to respond.. She also has beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, body boards, our son and granddaughter used the kayaks and bicycles. It was so nice not to have to bring these with us. Everyone in our family absolutely loved it , we hardly left the pool and beach until the last day when we went out to shop , eat and take photos! I This was the perfect house for us because we also really needed the elevator , our son-in-law has MS , one of our granddaughters is visually impaired and we are not getting any younger , but they were able to easily travel through out the house and out to the pool.Oh, I cannot forget everything Rebecca has for dogs :feeding dishes, kennels and the cutest dog beach towels. I maybe rambling but I really loved the house and Rebecca is really the best owner , she has really thought of everything. Shelia

Best House on the Cape
3 couples rented this house with the ability for some of our adult kids to come throughout the week. It couldn’t have been more perfect. So perfect the kids chose to stay the week as well. Communication with the owner couldn’t have been easier or more pleasant. The house was more than accommodating and every need was anticipated. I’ve never enjoyed a vacation more.

Perfect in so many ways…
This property was absolutely perfect for our group of 14 adults and kids. The location was the best, away from crowds but close enough to ride bikes to the general store or make a quick trip to Port St. Joe. The views are nothing short of amazing! The property had everything you could ask for, along with several extras, it seemed much larger than the photos revealed. The communication with the owner was outstanding, extremely helpful and accommodating from start to finish. The perfect beach vacation property for fun in the sun!

Disappointed
The Home is nice with a nice view. Long walk to the beach, many rental homes there are closer. There’s a lot of building going on and the house next door we listened to cranes and framing hammers most every day while framers watched every move we made. We paid a lot for the week. We had to sweep and mop the main floor when we got there as well as wash the main level windows which were nasty. We left the house immaculate as we always do anywhere we travel. We had planned on just my wife and I staying here yet We were so excited our college daughter could come as well as my mother in law at the last minute. The owner had a fit we had 3 more people and another dog staying for the last three days which is absurd in my optimism in a 6 bedroom home any we only ended up having 5 people. Out of kindness we left the cleaning lady a 100 tip. The cleaning lady fraudulently charged the owner saying we spilled red wine on the sofa. No one drank red wine or red anything in our group. She obviously flipped sofa cushions or has pictures of other sofas on her phone so she can rip people off. She also said one of our dogs peed on a bed which is not true. My daughter borrowed a comforter from a non used kids bed because it was cold on her room. Obviously some previous guests child had peed on the bed in the past. She also stated we got finger nail polish on something in the house which is not true as well. All of my crew goes to salons for that. All in all very disappointed they charged us 350.00 extra for things we didn’t do. It’s not the money to me, it’s the principle and I don’t like being ripped off. I have stayed all over the world in 5 star places for decades and have never been treated like this. All of this Definitely ruined the end of what would have been a goood vacation.

Gulf View Delight
Three ‘senior’ couples stayed in this new, beautiful, gulf-side home on Cape San Blas. Everything was as described.. We had plenty of space to enjoy while having our privacy. Everything from the awesome view of the Gulf to Rebecca’s lovely touch on the furnishings was wonderful. Having the elevator was a great help. Would be fantastic for families ( which is why I booked originally but pandemic uncertainties changed that). Hope to be back with the extended family at another time.

Beautiful Cape San Blas home!
My family and I stayed at this home in March and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The home is right on the beach, enjoys beautiful sunsets, and has a private heated pool overlooking the dunes. It's beautifully maintained and well stocked, and it's close to the trading post/seafood market/ice cream. It was a joy to work with the owner, and we hope to stay again on another trip to CSB!

Perfection
All around, Sea Salt was an amazing house. The owners supplied everything needed for a perfect beach vacation. Their communication was easy and helped to answer any questions we had before and during our stay. Upon arriving, the house was spotless. We were pleasantly surprised at how spacious the house was. 14 people stayed in this house very comfortably. Beach was easy to access and of course was the perfect Sand Blas beach. The Trading Post was a mile way, so the kids enjoyed biking there for donuts, ice cream and lunch. Overall, Sea Salt did not disappoint. We had an amazing time. Loved the decor of the house. Everything was pure perfection!!!

Cape San Blas Perfection
Sea Salt is a spacious brand new home with amazing views of the gulf. Our group ranged in age from 15 to 87 and we all loved the home. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of room to cook and feed 12 of us. The pool was a nice break from the beach. The boardwalk made access easy and there is a park very close for us to take a beach permitted golf cart out. The owners provide chairs, kayaks and more. I would not hesitate to stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Larry and Becky Dowd

Host profile image
Our first trip to the Cape was in 2006 when our kids were young (they are now in college). We were captivated by the unspoiled natural beauty of the peninsula, the sandy beaches, and the beautiful sunsets. Since that time we've enjoyed many family vacations together and are excited to offer other families the opportunity to experience Florida's Forgotten Coast. Please call us if you have any questions concerning our new vacation home, Sea Salt.
