Peace of Cape is one of those places that just makes you feel like you have come to your own personal beach getaway! The townhouse is spacious and comfortable, and is exactly what the name implies - peaceful! This great townhome has 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms to comfortably accommodate up to 6 people, with 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, and a pullout sofa bed. This unit is a great size for a couple's getaway, a family vacation, or for snowbirds wanting to escape the winter cold.
When you come into Peace of Cape, the first level is a completely open concept living/dining/kitchen area. It offers a great place to "chill out" after a fun-filled day at the beach or one of the community pools or some other fun adventure. You can share a meal at our spacious brand new dining table that can accommodate the whole family. And afterward, maybe you can "unplug" and play games, cards, or work puzzles together. You can relax in the family room where there is a large flat screen TV and blue-ray DVD player with Netflix (you will need your own account), which is perfect for a family movie night. The kitchen, or "Galley" as we like to call it, has all brand new stainless steel appliances and is stocked with all the supplies you'll need. There is also a half bath on the first level for your convenience.
The family room opens onto a wonderful and spacious deck surrounded by palm trees. It feels open, yet private all at the same time. The deck looks out over the central green space, and has a view of the Gulf. There are bar-height poly wood tables that seat six, and a gas grill is provided for cooking out. The deck leads down to the boardwalk that takes you out through the gazebo and onto the sugary white sand. You really are only 1 minute to the beach!
The second level has two ensuite bedrooms with plenty of privacy. Known as the Captain's Quarters and First Mate accommodations, each room has plenty of space to unpack and settle in. There are TVs in both bedrooms, as well as private balconies. The Captain's deck is spacious and seating is provided to enjoy gulf breezes and a great vantage point for beautiful sunsets and spectacular starry nights. While the First Mate's balcony enjoys the morning sun, with a lovely view that looks across to the club house, the gorgeous dunes, and a view of the Gulf.
Peace of Cape has a beach closet filled with all the accessories you will need to relax and enjoy the beach - including 4 beach chairs, beach toys, and a beach cart to help you easily get everything to the beach or pool. Then there is an enclosed outdoor shower with hot & cold water, which is perfectly situated as you come off the boardwalk to rinse off the sand when you get back from the beach.
Barrier Dunes is a great community for people of all ages. There are two tennis/pickleball courts, two swimming pools, ponds where kids can feed the resident turtles, a neighborhood playground, and safe streets for walking your dog or riding bikes. One swimming pool is centrally located in the complex and the other pool is gulf front with covered picnic tables and a gazebo overlooking the sugar white sand and beautiful Gulf of Mexico. One of the prime benefits of Peace of Cape is the amazing location! From this great townhouse, you are only steps to any of the great amenities. Then just outside Barrier Dunes, there is a 9 mile bike path that takes you along 30E from the State Park to the entrance of Cape San Blas
Peace of Cape offers everything you need for the perfect beach vacation getaway! We hope you will come visit us soon and see what we have to offer!

The kitchen pots and pans were old, not much to really cook with. The community was nice, safe, friendly.

We appreciated your feedback and were able to alert the owners who arrived after you and immediately replaced those pots and pans with a new set. We're so glad you were able to enjoy the relaxation of Peace of Cape and Barrier Dunes. It really is a little piece of paradise down here.
Thanks again,

Great location, 2 minutes and your on the beach. Place was very clean. Exactly as listed. Well stocked kitchen. Coffee and breakfast in the morning on the patio with view of the ocean was nice. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Right next to the state park was awsome. Rented a boat and saw all kinds of marine life. Would definitely stay here again. ( If you ever decide to sell let me know )

Great place to get away from it all.
Cape of Peace was a great place to spend a vacation. Sorry to say we had the coldest days of the previous six months but made the best of it. The rental was in a perfect location within Barrier Dunes and had everything needed to 'call it home'.
We would recommend staying here as the Cape is a place to just go and relax with little traffic and a great Trading Post to get whatever you may need.

This was our first visit to Cape San Blas and we hope to return. It’s so beautiful and quiet without all the traffic and noise. Peace of Cape was awesome and the easiest walk to the beach ever. Everything we needed was available. The owners were so easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions I had. The email with all the information we needed prior to arrival was very helpful. We would love to stay at Peace of Cape again!

Delighted you enjoyed Peace of Cape. The name says it all really and we love it when people love our properties as much as we do. Til the next time...
All the best, Ros & Carolyn
This place was awesome to stay at. As a family of 5 with small kids this place was perfect and also had a high chair. It's so close to the beach you can set up your stuff in the morning and don't have to worry about anything.
Also for the Dad's/Mom's who carry the whole house to the beach this walk was maybe 100 yards and I didn't need to bring a wagon for everything. I just made a couple trips.
The pool is directly across from the condo which is very convenient . One thing to note about this pool there's not a ton of shade so be prepared with sun screen.
The beach gear locker was stocked appropriately, the only thing we brought was a pop up tent for more shade on the beach. There's plenty of sand castle toys and a couple of body boards.
We had a great time and will be back for years to come.

Hi Jesse, thanks for taking a few minutes to write a review for us. We are delighted you guys enjoyed your stay in Peace of Cape. It really is a fantastic unit, as you say, so close to the beach and even a view of the Gulf if you never leave the deck! Please let us know when we can help you get booked for your next vacation and we'll make it 'ez' again. :)
Thanks, and have an easy day! R & C
Location, beach and overall condition of the condo were fine. However, how it was advertised was misleading. It was a 2BR and not a 3BR, where there were once bunk beds are no longer available. Also, we could never get any hot water in the master shower and we needed new batteries for the 2nd BR TV. Never got them delivered, so the TV had to be worked manually from the back and it is wall mounted.

Hi Mitch,
Well, we're glad you enjoyed the location and the property itself while you were here. We do feel like we have to clear this up and mention that it seems like maybe you misread the description because this unit has never been advertised as a 3 bedroom and it has been a very long time since the hallway bunks were mentioned at all as they are not available to use and so are definitely not advertised in any way. With your named party of 4, we wouldn't have had any reason to think you'd need the extra space, although there is an extra pullout bed in the Queen bedroom if needed.
Unfortunately, you did not mention your hot water issue so we didn't get a chance to address it but I'm sure, as with the TV issue, it would have been sorted out easily for you. Usually having what is perceived as no hot water in just one faucet just means you may be turning the handle in the wrong direction, and we'd have been glad to help you out with it all. A 3 Star review is unfair for this property as it was and is as advertised.
We do wish you all the best in your future travels. Ros & Carolyn

Great stay on the beach
Very comfortable condo and the 1 min to the beach claim is no exaggeration. The only reason we didn't give it 5 stars was because we felt like the kitchen wasn't very well equipped for cooking. We like to cook most of our meals when we rent places on the Gulf and cooking utensils and equipment (pots/pans) were pretty sparse in this unit. Really a very minor complaint - wish I could give it 4.75 stars.
And for anyone staying there after this review, if you find a white gold wedding band, it'd be incredibly kind of you if you got it back to the owners or better yet, let me know (ransul @ gmail . com)!
** Edited. I felt guilty giving it four stars instead of five, so I came back and bumped it up. Just prepare accordingly if you plan to cook.

Hi!
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We found out that there were cabinets in the kitchen that had been locked that were supposed to be left open. We apologize for this inconvenience! The owners had guests in just prior to your stay and the cabinets were left locked, but should not have been and this problem has been corrected. We hope you will come back and stay with us again!!!
