Enter your dates and number of guests (plus any pets) for all-inclusive rates, and then book directly here!
Located in the popular gated community of Barrier Dunes, The Sandy Hook is a stand-out, pet-friendly townhome offering 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a sleeper sofa, to accommodate up to 6 guests and 2 dogs. This end unit is a short walk to the sugary white beach of Cape San Blas, where the spectacular sunsets are unmatched by anywhere else in the entire panhandle of Florida.
We invite you to come and enjoy all of the updated features offered in this fantastic townhome. The first floor living/dining/kitchen area is open and inviting with plenty of space for everyone. We have comfortable seating and a large flat screen TV, perfect for a family movie night after a fun-filled day at the beach. A big bay window lets in extra light, making the room bright and cheery. The living area opens onto a great resurfaced deck with a table & chairs and a gas grill overlooking the tennis/pickleball courts. This wonderful outdoor space is perfect for al-fresco dining.
Back inside, our dining table seats six (for meals or game nights) with additional seating at the spacious bar. The updated kitchen features new cabinets, countertops, and all stainless steel appliances, including a large side-by-side refrigerator/freezer with water and ice in the door, an electric stove, microwave, and dishwasher. The kitchen is incredibly well-stocked with everything you need to cook and enjoy meals together, along with both a Keurig and a regular coffee maker, crock pot, toaster, blender, electric can opener, plenty of cookware, dishes, and glassware.
Also on the first level is a bright and welcoming bedroom offering a small distant view of the Gulf. The room is setup with a queen bed, flat screen TV, and ample space to unpack. There is a small balcony for two to enjoy sitting out. And a full bathroom with a tub/shower combination is conveniently located between the kitchen and the bedroom.
When you walk upstairs, you are "wowed" by the inviting master suite. The large king-size bed offers a comfortable oasis to relax and unwind. All of the dresser drawers and the large closet give you plenty of room to settle in for your vacation. A sliding door opens onto a lovely resurfaced deck, where a cute little table with two chairs offers a wonderful spot to sit out with a cup of coffee and enjoy the morning sun. The en-suite bathroom has a large walk-in tiled shower and nice new vanity. Also upstairs is a wonderful little office nook, and the laundry closet has a new, full-sized stackable washer and dryer. (Please note, this is a typical Barrier Dunes unit and does not have a door on this bedroom.)
The Sandy Hook has been freshly painted from top to bottom, has ceramic tiled floors throughout (which are perfect for the beach), offers comfortable furniture, wonderful outdoor decks, plenty of TVs, wireless internet, covered parking, and beach chairs and a cart to easily get your gear to and from the beach. We have done everything we can to make our place feel like your home away from home.
Barrier Dunes is a great place for people of all ages. Our community offers safe streets for walking your dog and for your children or grandchildren to play or ride bikes. In addition to the two tennis/pickleball courts, the community also has a wonderful playground, several ponds where kids love to feed the resident turtles, three boardwalks to the beach, and two swimming pools - one is centrally located in the complex (and can be seen from the decks of The Sandy Hook) and the other pool overlooks the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.
Come to Cape San Blas and stay at The Sandy Hook. We look forward to welcoming you to our little slice of paradise.

What an amazing place! My husband, myself and our Golden Retriever had the time of our lives staying at Sandy Hook at Cape San Blas. Between the weather, the beach, the people and the beautiful townhome we could not have asked for more.
Can’t wait to come back!

We loved the condo! It was very comfortable and clean! We loved that our fur baby was welcome there also! This was our 7th year at the Cape and this was definitely one of the nicest places we have stayed!

Property is in an excellent location to the beach and the nearby state park. Even though the townhouse u it’s see if older construction, they are very well kept outside with nice amenities for families. The inside of the unit was very updated and well kept as well it perfectly accommodated our family. We highly recommend and plan to stay again.

Thanks, and have an easy day!

We love Cape San Blas because it is laid back, quiet and dog friendly. We love this unit at Barrier Dunes because it has easy access to the beach, pools and tennis/Pickleball courts. This unit also had a lovely screened porch which is not common! A bonus: they had a basket of linens and bowls for our dog 😊

Nice and clean property. Loved the small office nook off the master bedroom, perfect size to put my preschooler for "his own room with a beach view". There was an exterior closet filled with great stuff for they kids, beach toys, umbrellas, and even a beach wagon!

Delighted you enjoyed your stay Lindsey! We love that description of the extra area in the master bedroom! Room to keep the little ones close but still private :) We hope you will consider staying with us again next time you come back to our little piece of paradise!
All the best,

We had a great week! It was a super easy walk to the beach from the condo. We loved that they provided beach chairs to keep us from having to bring ours. The kitchen was pretty well stocked for all of our needs. The back porch was very enjoyable in the evenings once it cooled down. We loved having the outdoor shower and water hose under the unit to rinse off ourselves and beach items each day. We loved our trip to the Cape and hope to return one day!
The only thing I would comment on would be the cleanliness of the floors of the unit when we arrived - we had to vacuum them upon arrival as there was sand and dog hair spread throughout.

Hi Kaitlyn. Our apologies again for the sand on the floor. No excuses as that little pile should have been picked up before you arrived so it wouldn't have spread when you walked in. We would have had our cleaner come back and get that for you had you wanted us to but we're glad it was a quick fix and you were able to enjoy your stay with us, and the Sandy Hook otherwise. The unit is definitely in a great spot with all you need to enjoy a stay in our little piece of paradise! That back porch is the perfect place to relax in the evenings for sure. So glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks, and have an easy day!

This was our first trip to Cape San Blas and it didn’t disappoint. This was one of the most peaceful and restful trips we’ve taken! The beaches were beautiful and our rom at The Sandy Hook was more than adequate for our 7 night stay! The Condominium was 2 bedrooms and 3 baths. The master suite had a beautiful walk-in shower which was so helpful since both my wife and I have bad hip problems! The kitchen and all amenities were just what we needed for our stay! The best part of all was that the beach and our housing allowed us to take our Goldendoodle! The area is pet friendly and that sold us on this area! If there was a negative about the accommodations it would be that there was 2 flights of stairs with 14 steps each. It was a bit challenging for 2 seniors with bad hips, but we made it! We will be back to the CAPE! Oh, and the food at Krazy Fish in Port ST Joe was awesome! They also allowed dogs! :-)

Thank you, Bryan! We appreciate the feedback and were delighted you guys enjoyed the Sandy Hook and our beaches. For anyone reading this review, we just want to be sure to say there are two bathrooms in the unit. And definitely stairs, as we show in the pictures. It's a rare thing not to have them here so we're glad you were able to manage them this trip. We hope you can enjoy returning to the Cape for many years with your furbaby. There's no place like it :)
All the best,
Ros & Carolyn
We really enjoyed ourselves and met alot of new people

So glad you enjoyed your stay with us Kathryn. The Sandy Hook is a great unit right next to the tennis/pickleball courts. You can't help but enjoy meeting everybody yet be secluded on the screened in deck too! Please do come back again soon. We'd love to host your stay again.
All the best,

Close to the beach, great community, clean and with all the essentials you’ll need
Stayed here with family of 4 adults. Clean, had all the essentials we needed, super close to the beach (2 minute walk) and loved the screened porch for dinners at night. Do take extra toilet paper, paper towels and extra towels.

So glad you enjoyed your stay in The Sandy Hook. We love the screened in deck too. Nothing like dining Al Fresco without any bugs :)
And always a good idea to bring more supplies if you know you will use up the starter pack of products we tell you we will leave for you. We do supply one set of bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths for each guest and so if you need more, please do bring some. There is a washer and dryer available in the unit too for your convenience.
Do come back and stay with us again. Delighted you enjoyed your stay with us!

Overall a nice place to stay. Clean and well supplied. Nice beach supplies. Needs a few improvements. The gas grill is way beyond its life. Cracked heating elements make it hard to cook. The pantries are over crowded with all kinds of stuff and there is no place to put your food. We had to leave most of it on the countertop. While the master bedroom is very nice there is no door to the room. You hear everything that goes on downstairs. The condo is located in a nice complex which we will probably revisit in the future.
Very nice condo. Good location to beach, having the closet with the wagon was helpful
