This beach house had everything we needed….pools toys, beach chairs and cart, kitchen items, beach towels, shampoo conditioner and body wash in every shower! Easy walk to the beach on board walk in neighborhood. Beach was not crowded at all!! Restaurants and grocery stores in short driving distance This was our first time in Cape San Blas and we will definitely be back!!

WONDERFUL vacation at Cape San Blas!!!!

Our family of 4 adults and 2 teenage girls had a great vacation at the "Sandy Turtle"! The house was beautifully decorated, it was very spacious and roomy, the beds were very comfortable, enjoyed the open, well-equipped kitchen, supplied lots of beach towels and nice beach chairs and the pool was a huge plus!! House was a short walk on a nice private boardwalk to the beach. I can't say enough about this house!! A very nice stay and we will go back!
