Great Stay!
We enjoyed our time at Sylvia and Bert's! It was a last minute change due to the hurricane and they made the process easy. The house has everything you need and more and it's just a short walk to the beach! We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the sunset. We can't wait to come back!

Everything we needed
Our yearly trip to Cape San Blas was relaxing and staying at Veranda Views truly made it one of the best trips we’ve had. We had a large multigenerational group and a dog with us and there was plenty of space for us all to relax and enjoy time together. The all the living areas were very nice but the dining and kitchen were the best. The kitchen was very well stocked and we cooked almost every night and didn’t need a thing. The pool was awesome as were the bikes and beach gear.
Thank you so much Sylvia and Bert, we loved staying in your home for the week! We truly didn’t want to leave.

Veranda Views is an outstanding property
Three floors of welcoming space with a spectacular master suite on third floor and balconies on the 2 top floors with expansive views of the Gulf. Well-appointed rooms and comfortable furnishings. Just south of the major devastation in the area from Hurricane Michael last October, the development and beach were well preserved although there are remnants of buildings that were not so lucky.

Veranda Views was such a wonderful retreat!
The porches are very well appointed with comfy furnishings, and the views of the Gulf are soothing to the eyes and soul —- especially the sunsets!
The proximity to the beach for long walks, water-gazing and shell hunting is perfect: a very short distance to total relaxation. Our furry friends were also stoked about their daily romps on the Pet-friendly beach.
The house overall is very well equipped for large or small groups, with a wonderfully furnished kitchen to accommodate big, joyous family meals, cocktail gatherings and holiday gatherings.
The house is very well maintained, and the outdoor gear (bikes, kayaks, grill) are also cared for and ample for active vacationers.
A few day trips to nearby towns of Port St Joe and Apalachicola were well worth the short trips. There are also quaint little businesses to support right on the cape - donuts, quick pick up snacks and foods and adult “beverages” are all walkable!
Our visit was 4 weeks after the hurricane, and the progress of the clean up was evident and heartening. This beautiful, special getaway Gulf destination should be on your list for a memorable vacation.

Great stay with the family
We had a total of 13 people and we all had a comfortable place to lay our heads. We had a great time enjoying everything from the beautiful beach, chilling on the front porch to ending our days in the private pool.

Wonderful home for families!
This house was perfect for our two families to share, along with our dogs. Great location with easy access to the beach. Our kids loved using the sea kayaks! The owners were easy to work with - very accommodating and quick to respond to all communications. We loved our week at Cape San Blas and look forward to renting this house again in the future!

Perfect Beach Getaway
This house exceeded our expectations! The layout was perfect for our three families and babies and the location and accessibility to the beach could not have been any better. The house was clean when we arrived, and we had no issues during our one week stay. We would definitely stay here again! Really recommend it.

Beautiful home and great location on Cape San Blas!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Veranda Views! We take an annual beach trip with extended family each summer and this home provided everything we needed. It is close to the beach (short walk to beach access path) and the beach is not overcrowded. Love being able to bring dogs down to the beach! We enjoyed the kayaks and bikes provided! I would definitely recommend this home to any group heading to the beach.

Fantastic place to relax!
The house is gorgeous, in a very nice and quiet subdivision, and has all amenities one can wish for for an amazing get-away vacation! The beach is literally a one minute walk away and our dog and us had a blast playing on the beach. We had our first kayaking experience, which was a lot of fun. The donut walk in the morning is not to be missed either! Ate lots of fresh oysters too! The sunsets are beautiful, right from the deck while enjoying a glass of wine, what else does one need?
Everything you need is in the house and it's in great shape. It's beachy, light, clean, and airy. The kitchen is equipped with everything you may possibly need. Just bring your groceries and wine and you're all set!
All the fresh air made us feel we were gone longer than just a couple of days. And that's a very good thing!

Great home with beautiful sunset views!
The pictures speak for themselves – the home is really great and we were all very comfortable. My favorite part of the week was drinking morning coffee, lunches and sunsets on the veranda overlooking the ocean and collecting seashells on the white sand beaches. There are 4 new bikes – I recommend a trip down to the end of the peninsula to St Joe’s Peninsula State Park. The pool was perfect for a refreshing dip in the afternoon after a long day sightseeing, kayaking, biking or beaching. Nearby Apalachicola and Port St. Joe have some quaint shops and restaurants. Across the street is Skully’s where you can eat there or grab the shrimp to bring back and eat on the veranda. The owners are very responsive and have thoughtfully stocked the home with everything you will need for a fun filled week.
