Excellent getaway for family and pets.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the beach house. The house was clean it was only steps from the beach and close to the bay. I recommend this beach house to anyone looking for a great place to create memories to last lifetime.

Wonderful!!

My family has been coming to the Cape for years. It’s a really special place for us. Staying at Sandy Daze added lots of new and beautiful memories. The house was perfect and had everything we could possibly need and then some. We felt at home with the added bonus of the salt and sea. I would highly recommend this property to anyone.

Good but not great!

Great house but ceiling had been repaired but not painted- Would not recommend for seniors- too many stairs and no main floor bedroom- Toilets need to be upgraded- too low for anyone w mobility issues! No pan big enough for soups/ chili or seafood boils!

Perfect Stay

The house was perfect for our family. The beds were very comfortable and the house was well-kept. The beach was just a short, beautiful walk down the boardwalk. The are was quiet, but had everything we could ask for in a beach vacation.

Immaculate & Family Friendly

When we first walked into Hillary’s beach house, I was instantly impressed with how clean it was! No sand in the corners, kitchen was spotless, light fixtures were not dusty, etc. It is by far the cleanest VRBO we’ve stayed in. The entire house was perfect for our family - 2 seating areas, amazing recliners for winding down after a day on the beach, amazingly stocked kitchen, board games, kids room, list goes on. We had everything we needed from towel and beach chairs, to the forgotten tooth brush and aloe gel. It was just a short walk to the board walk for white sugar beaches, tons of wildlife/critters, and beautiful water. We will definitely be back!!

Lovely home in amazing location

Sandy Daze was a really wonderful home, particularly for the value. The care and attention the owners have put into it really shows. The extra ice maker was something I never realized I was missing at the beach until I found it at Sandy Daze. The community was quiet and convenient. The second floor balcony had a gorgeous view of the ocean and I spent many hours relaxing on the screened porch. My kids loved their oversized bedroom and my friend appreciated having her own bedroom with attached bathroom so she didn’t have to share with me and the kids. The walk to the beach started just yards away from the back door and was so easy to access. I hope to return with the kids and my husband next summer!

Sandy Daze June 2023

Very nice location to the beach. The 2 bedrooms upstairs was not convenient to someone who has to get up during the night to go to the bathroom. You have to go through the other bedroom to get to the bathroom. The small bathroom downstairs always had a urine smell. Dust everywhere. A good thorough cleaning would do wonders for this house.

Excellent time

The house is in a perfect spot. Close to the beach. Short drive down the road for another excellent beach. Husband fished every day. It’s a great house. Very clean, well kept, extremely comfortable mattress. Kitchen supplies to die for. Ice maker!!! Loved the screened in porch. Close to Port St Joe. Short drive to Apalachicola. Loved it!

Love, Love, Love!

The time we spent here was awesome. We wouldn’t have changed or asked for anything different. The house has everything you need and we loved the quiet beach. We saw dolphins, horses and even a bald eagle. My husband fished on the beach mornings and late afternoons until dark. The weather was perfect. The neighborhood was quiet. Communication with the host was easy. We can’t wait to come back in October for more relaxing, fishing and fun. You won’t be disappointed if you decide to stay in this lovely home for your beach vacation.

Family Stay at Cape San Blass

The property has everything you need. Some places list that they have everything and don't but this one had it all. The kitchen is completely stocked and very usable. Beach chairs and beach wagons under the house. My husband and 3 children and two grandchildren had a great week. The sleeping areas were good and plenty of room for family space, but most of our time was on the beach. The only downside was we had one full day of rain and getting to the beach items under the house and out the walkway became treacherous. There was so much water everything was muddy walking to the walkways and under the house. But this is no fault of the owner it was just a lot of rain. It is about 3-4 minute walk to the beach. Owner is great to communicate with for any questions.

Great time!

The overall experience was great! The house was inviting and peaceful. There was one slight problem. It was not expressed very clearly that two of the bedrooms were connected making one adult have to go thru the room of the couple staying in it to get to restroom or downstairs with having to go outside. I suggest you put that somewhere in the description of 3 bedrooms. Otherwise we had a marvelous stay.

Great house with everything you need. The dogs loved the beach out front. It is a quiet beach, great for waking. It is somewhat shallow for water activities, but there are many deeper beaches just minutes away. We will return!
