The Space:

Discover Salty Bear, a spacious 4BR/3.5BA Cape San Blas vacation rental in the gated Jubilation community on the quiet south end of Cape San Blas, just minutes from the Gulf near Port St. Joe. Designed for guests who value nature, movement, and relaxation, this pet-free beach house offers a clean, peaceful stay along Florida’s unspoiled Forgotten Coast.
This is the Old Florida experience — wide, uncrowded beaches and a slower pace of life. Start your mornings paddle boarding or kayaking in the calm waters of St. Joseph Bay, spend afternoons surf fishing for redfish, pompano, whiting, and more, and enjoy long beach walks known for exceptional shelling — including sand dollars, starfish, and coastal treasures.
Wildlife is part of the experience — guests often spot dolphins, shorebirds, pelicans, and even manatees and sea turtles (seasonal), while the surrounding preserved coastline supports diverse native species unique to the area.
Salty Bear is ideal for active, outdoor-focused travelers, with beach runs, cycling, swimming, and open shoreline space. The strict no-pets policy ensures a clean, quiet environment — perfect for families and guests seeking a dog-free stay.
