Unfortunately I was unable to accompany my husband on this trip due to a heavy snowstorm at our home in Ohio. My husband said there were no issues with the home except for nightly visits from a large black bear. This was our second time renting Lured by the Sands.The previous guests didn't latch the trash can, and my husband had to pick up all their garbage the first morning.There were food scraps, dirty diapers, dog poop and more strewn down the husband was careful to latch it everyday. We will likely rent this home again the next time we meet with our builders.
Response from VrboOwner on 9 Feb 2026
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and for choosing Lured by the Sands! Black bears are native to the area and can occasionally make appearances, especially if they’re attracted by unsecured trash. We’re glad there were no issues with the home itself and appreciate your husband’s care in keeping everything latched moving forward. We’re grateful for your continued trust in us and would be happy to welcome you back the next time you’re in the area. Thank you again for your understanding and for being a valued repeat guest.
Lovely weather and nice to have the bike and tote as an extra. House was perfectly laid out for us and extremely quiet. Back enclosed barbecue area and roof deck were also wonderful to have . Enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!!

So glad to hear that you all had such a wonderful time! We appreciate that you took the time to leave a review for all future guests looking to book this home. Hope to see you again!
Amazing home, decorated beautifully and everything you need! Our family of 5 adults and 1 baby had so much room to gather and enjoy each other. Close to the beach and even closer to the pool. Highly recommended 🤩
This well laid out home has everything you’ll need for a week, a month or anything in between. Beds are comfy and everything we needed was provided. The porches are perfect for morning coffee, reading in the sun, and just hanging out. We loved searing fresh fish on the Blackstone and playing the many games provided. The beach is a short walk away for sunrise (or sunset) viewing, shelling, spotting dolphins and eagles, and fishing. Also, the daily air show - spectacular! Really, a little slice of paradise.

This home was roomy and well laid out. Kitchen was well stocked and had so many small kitchen appliances that made cooking easy. The home was clean and comfortable for all of us. The proximity to the beach was an easy walk. The pool was very close and well maintained. We would definitely stay again! Lots of board games and cards for family fun at night!

Reviewer Comments:
We had a fantastic family vacation in Cape San Blas. The entire process for the rental was easy and communication was perfect. Lured by the Sands was a wonderful base for our crew of 2 adults and 4 teenagers. There was plenty of space in the house for everyone to have their "spot" - be it the porch upstairs or the screened porch or even hanging out in the living room or in bedrooms. The walk to the beach was easy and the pool was so close by. Very quiet neighborhood, perfect beach with plenty of space to spread out. We enjoyed our first experience on the cape and hope to return again soon!
This house had everything you could need. Very clean and well decorated. A bit far to the beach but easily traveled. Only drawback we had is the road it was on had several blind hills that made us nervous for our kids to be riding bikes. However if you don’t plan to ride bikes this should not be a concern. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and things you don’t normally encounter. We loved the house and rental company took care of any small concern immediately. Thanks for a great week even though the wind was fierce! Lol

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Lured by the Sands! The home was as described, very clean, and extremely well-stocked - not just the kitchen, but items for families with littles. There was a portable crib with sheets, a potty-training seat, and high chair in the home. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, utensils, and glassware for our full house. We had 5 adults, 4 teenagers, and a toddler. There was room for everyone to spread out and relax. The pool is very close, which was ideal with a toddler. The walk to the beach was easy with a beach cart. Overall, it was a great week! This is the second time we've rented from Coastal Joe, and it won't be the last! Great experiences both times. Highly recommend both Coastal Joe and Lured by the Sands.

This was our first time vacationing in Cape San Blas. The home was very spacious and had everything we needed and more! It was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. From the moment you walk in you know you are in for a special week. A short walk to the beach and we were in paradise! We already miss it and can't wait to go back! We would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at Lured by the Sands was absolutely amazing. The house is beautifully decorated with all new appliances and furniture. The house was clean and had everything we needed to cook dinners (love the Blackstone grill). The bedrooms were a great size and the beds are super comfortable. The only difficulty was not having a closet, or anywhere to store clothes, in the bunk room. The property is a quick walk to the beach on a newly refurbished boardwalk. The property manager was polite and very responsive. We will absolutely go back!

Almost perfect. The house was everything described and more. Perfect for our group of 9. Plenty of room. They only thing that would need to be addressed is the water pressure in the showers. Probably just a simple cleaning of build up in the shower heads, but other than that, it was amazing.

Home was perfect. And clean. House was being built next door which made you not want to be outside during the day because of the noise. Maybe a heads up would of been nice. Although the whole area under reconstruction from hurricane Michael. Beach is nice. Rental is great.
