Pet Paradise! Fenced Yard + Steps to Beach + Outdoor Shower + Beach Gear
Welcome to Cast Your Cares — Your Coastal Getaway in Cape San Blas!
Tucked inside the new gulf-side Villa Del Sol community, Cast Your Cares offers the perfect blend of coastal charm and comfort. Just a short stroll (about 5 minutes) down the community boardwalk brings you to the sands of Cape San Blas. After a sun-soaked day at the beach, kick back in the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living space, or head to the fully fenced backyard to grill and gather around the propane fire pit under the stars.
This 3 bed / 3.5 bath retreat is thoughtfully appointed, with a well-stocked kitchen, Smart TVs in every room (with Hulu + Live TV, Disney+ & ESPN+), and plenty of extras to make your stay feel like home.
✨ DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE for 2-week or longer stays from December–February – just send an inquiry to learn more!
🏡 Features & Amenities:
🐾 Pet Friendly! Up to 2 well-behaved dogs welcome ($75 fee). Please ask about dogs over 75 lbs.
🛏️ Master suite on main (king bed), 2 upstairs ensuite bedrooms (queen beds), plus a queen sleeper sofa downstairs.
🚿 Enclosed outdoor shower with hot/cold water + hooks for towels/swimsuits.
🌭 Backyard with seating for 8, propane fire pit, and Weber gas grill (backup propane provided).
🎾 2 community pickleball courts (paddles + balls provided by us) and a swimming pool just across the street.
☕ Keurig Duo with a full coffee starter kit.
🍳 Fully stocked kitchen with cookware, dinnerware for 12, crockpot, Instant Pot, Ninja blender, and more.
🧺 Starter kits for kitchen and bath (paper towels, dish pods, TP, trash bags, etc.).
🏖️ Beach gear provided: chairs, towels, umbrella, wagon, blanket, toys—and even a kayak for guest use!
👶 Large dog crate, baby gate, and white noise machines in each bedroom.
📦 Ample pantry and cabinet space for groceries.
🛠️ Small toolbox + kitchen essentials (can opener, corkscrew, scissors, etc.).
A Few Notes to Know:
📺 We don’t have cable, but every TV is a Smart TV with a paid Hulu + Live TV subscription (includes Disney+ and ESPN+). You’re also welcome to stream from your own accounts.
🚤 No boat/trailer parking is allowed in the driveway or common areas per HOA. We can help you find marina storage nearby.
🔒 The only locked space is one owner's closet off the master bath.
You’ll have full access to the home and amenities, and our local team is just a call away for any housekeeping or maintenance needs.
Whether you're here to unwind, explore, or make unforgettable beach memories with loved ones (and pups!), we want Cast Your Cares to feel like your own little slice of paradise. If there’s anything you need during your stay, just let us know—we’re happy when you’re happy. ☀️🐚

About the host
Hosted by Julie Kern

We’re Greg and Julie Kern, and Cast Your Cares is the realization of a long-time dream. After vacationing in Cape San Blas for over a decade, we finally made it official in April 2022 and became proud homeowners in this special beach town we’ve grown to love.
What first drew us to the Cape was its laid-back charm—and its reputation for being incredibly pet friendly. Our 13-year-old Pomeranian, Samson, was the original beach explorer, and now he shares the adventure with his "little" brother, Thor, also a Pomeranian. They love it here... and so do we!
From the very beginning, our vision for Cast Your Cares has been to create a place where guests feel at home, cared for, and welcomed. It’s more than just a vacation house—it’s a space for rest, fun, and reconnection. Our prayer is that your time here would be deeply refreshing, full of sweet memories—and that you’ll return again and again. 🌴🐾☀️

Why they chose this property
Once guests arrive, they rarely want to leave—and many come back year after year! Cast Your Cares isn’t just a beach house—it’s a place of rest, joy, and memory-making, lovingly cared for by longtime Cape San Blas visitors turned owners.
After 10 years of vacationing here, we (Greg and Julie) finally made our dream a reality in 2022. We poured our hearts into creating a welcoming, pet-friendly retreat that feels like home the moment you step inside. Our guests consistently rave about the peaceful vibe, thoughtful touches, and how well-stocked and comfortable everything is—from the gourmet kitchen to the fenced backyard with fire pit.
Whether you're relaxing after a beach day, grilling under the stars, or playing pickleball with the family, this home was designed with your comfort and joy in mind. Come see why so many guests (and their pups!) fall in love with Cast Your Cares. We pray your stay is everything you need—and more. 💛🐾🌊
