Perfect Beach House

Rental process was easy with no problems. The home was outstanding! Excellent property just made for enjoying the beach - even from inside the house. Roomy, comfy, laid out so that two couples could enjoy the common area together and have total privacy in each bedroom. And it’s right on the beautiful beach! Highly recommend!

If you like your privacy, this is it!

In this time where houses are being built 20 feet from each other, privacy is hard to find. This one was perfect! It has large palm trees on each side of the decks giving you great privacy! The house has been maintained very well! We loved it and hope to return next year.

Great location and great beach house!

This little beach house (2 bedrooms) was perfect for my wife and I and 2 friends to spend a relaxing week on the Gulf. The house has a great layout, was super clean, the beds were comfortable, and had everything we needed. We spent as much time on the deck and screened in porches (each bedroom has its own screened porch) as we did on the beach. The views from there of the water were almost like being on the sand. The landscaping is also very well done, the palm trees around the house add a nice sense of privacy. You can tell the owners of this property really care about the place. The updates they've made are super nice, not the low grade stuff you usually see in rentals. And as I've already said, the place was really clean - kudos to the cleaning crew. Oh, and there's plenty of beach equipment provided, 5 nice beach chairs, lots of toys for kids, a decent charcoal grill, etc. The beach is also great at this location. Not crowded at all (no high rise condos anywhere in sight). The only improvements we'd suggest: the kitchen needs more than one hand towel (we used a LOT of paper towels as a result), we had to wash silverware frequently (wasn't quite enough for 4 adults, or maybe we just used a lot of silverware), no shampoo is provided (so bring your own), you'll also want to bring toilet paper/paper towels (but that's typical for rentals). We'd definitely stay here again.

Lovely getaway

This property was perfect for what I had in mind. My husband and I needed a getaway after our daughter got married- somewhere we could relax in the quiet. Owner kindly supplied beach books- I read three of them while I was there! November is a great time to go as this beach is almost deserted at that time. It is also convenient to restaurants in Port St Joe and Apalachicola (and with less people there, it is easy to get in without a wait). So, the cons are: Beds too small- there needs to be a King, no disposal (although this isn't really a big deal, just something to be aware of) and you need to bring your own blankets if it's in the colder months. Pros are: clean, manageable size for two people, great porch to view the sunset, right on the beach, easy drive to restaurants.

Perfect Getaway

Easy rental process. Small inconvenience upon arrival that was completely out of management's hands, but they were quick to respond once contacted. Beautiful house with direct access to the wonderful, non-crowed beach. House was fully stocked. Owners have honestly thought of everything you may need. Be sure to get showers out of the way before late evening, as there is a significant water pressure drop when the sprinklers turn on. Deck provides amazing views. Screened porches were very convenient. Watched dolphins almost every day. This was our first trip to the Gulf. Cabana Del Sol has us anxious to come back. Can't wait to book again!

Very disappointing

First the house was good clean and convenient, in need of alot of updating and maintenance We were with out hot water for three days two nights due to bad breaker The photographs in the advertisement give the impression thatthe water at the beach is beautiful and clear, IT IS NOT IT LOOKS LIKE CHOCOLATE MILK! And while talking to local law enforcement while recieving a 100.dollar citation for leaving our beach shade 1 hr bast sunset we learned that the beach here is almost never clear. The deck is in bad shape and the bite flies are very bad Take bug spray As for my family we are back to mexico beachwhere we have had great vacations for more than 30 years

Perfect little beach home

We had a great time at this location. It was perfect for a family of 4. It was semi-secluded and right next to the beach. My only recommendation would be to upgrade the master bed to a queen or king bed. I think it was a full, and although we managed, a larger bed would’ve made it perfect.

Property was great and so was veiw but the water quality was really bad because of creek outflow. Nothing can can fix that so we had a great day at the beach at the state park on Cape San Blas

Won't be back

Home was great, clean and inviting. Neutral , low rating due to beach water was almost black every day due to a river that was flowing into the ocean every day. We love playing in the water and it felt like you were swimming in an oil slick. We had to kayak a mile down shore just to play in clean water. So we will not be back.

Wonderful House

The house was beautiful and clean. The kitchen was amazing. The bathrooms were also incredible. The only issue that we had was the AC just could not keep up during the day. But luckily we were not in the house during the dayand it cooled off during the night. So overall everything was wonderful. nighr.

Perfect Summer Getaway

Our family of three thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cabana del Sol. It's a quick drive onto Cape San Blas and into Port St. Joe. We appreciated the amenities provided at the house - beach towels, beach chairs, and more household supplies than we're used to for beach rentals. We'll definitely be back!

Highly Recommended

First, the pictures of the house do not do it justice. I suggest some better marketing of the pictures. While the home has some nice upgrades and needs more, it is hard to find a house for three people. This house was the perfect size, and the location is perfect. The beach is 100 yards from the house, and we had our own private beach for the week. We struggle upon arrival as the code they gave us did not work. We called (and texted as directed) the managing company but did not here back for about an hour. This was a tough start as we had to just sit in our car waiting for a call or text. Furthermore, we would have thought that someone would have checked on us throughout the week. While the air conditioner worked well in the main room, the two bedrooms would not cool as we liked them. We did find some fans which was helpful. This needs to be looked at. We will come back as we love this location. Thank you.
