Multiple Repeats As always, we had a great time. Beach and home were wonderful – and family had a great time. We did lots of ocean kayaking and fishing with the kids. The worst part was having to pack up and leave. Your prompt attention to a few of our questions was very much appreciated. You provide excellent customer service. Thank you and we plan on returning soon.

Oh my goodness – we had a great, great time. The weather was beautiful and we couldn’t have had a better week. We felt so safe with a gated community! The beaches were spectacular and clean and the shelling was so much fun. We loved Indian Pass Raw Bar. We loved Apalachicola. We had so much fun watching your bonfires from our deck. We will definitely be back and will send some pictures for your website!
The Cape and The Cape Escape were more than we expected. Truly, we were swept away. I had not imagined in all of my mind to feel so safe, so welcome to a community of which I had never been. My family and I were double-taken at the sincerity throughout all guests we met and their seemingly interred nature in who we were and “oh, your dogs are so beautiful.’ We ALL lust loved our stay. Our experience was heart-warming. As we drove away, my daughter yelled from the backseat, ‘Goodbye vacation house, see you later…’We had an amazing evening when we were able to share with a great family we met on the beach. Ryan built a fire in the sand to roast marshmallows and we soaked up ‘together’ time as a family, dogs included. We were excited and very surprised to see how uncrowded the beach was. Such a warm, cozy feeling. All the amenities were so awesome and ever so appreciated. Seahorse Water Safaris was a sheer BLAST—goodness! A BLAST!! SUPER service too, they were great to us! SO many great memories Wendy. Your place is extraordinary!
I just had to email you to tell you what a GREAT time we had at Barrier Dunes this past week! The unit was perfect! We are telling all our friends about it. We just can’t stop talking about how wonderful it was. We just can’t believe how well stocked it was…everything needed for the beach, dish detergent, etc. Amazing! Our pup had a great time, too. We loved the entire area, the Barrier Dunes complex, our unit…just perfect. We will definitely be back!!!!!Thank you so much for making the rental and check-in process so smooth. All the info on the area (things to do, etc.) was extremely helpful. Can’t wait to go again! And will definitely be contacting you for the perfect unit.
We had a wonderful stay at Barrier Dunes! The beach was amazing! My family & I loved the fact that it was not crowded & very family oriented. We didn’t have to worry about loud & annoying music or obnoxious people. We were able to enjoy the peaceful sounds of the waves during the day and a bonfire with the waves at night! Very dog friendly.
Finding the beach at the condo was a very pleasant surprise & made our short walk to the beach so much easier.
Thanks again for your willingness to be so specific & for your willingness to let me family arrive a little early. We do plan to visit again in the near future!
Gulf Breeze was clean, completely outfitted with all we needed and it enabled us to have a wonderful vacation. You told me you thought we would like Gulf Breeze and you were right. My husband commented on the “Relax” sign in the kitchen and said it was so appropriate because that is exactly what we did. What a great complex and area–you guys have really found a jewel of a spot in the world.
We were afforded beautiful weather through the week, caught some Triple Tail which we thoroughly enjoyed cooking for a couple of delicious dinners (went out with Captain Carl off of Indian Pass–he was great!), built some fabulous bonfires on the beach while we took in the evening ocean breeze and gorgeous stars. Sunsets were magical and all the people we met throughout the week were so very friendly and nice. It was very convenient to have the beach chairs, the beach buggy, pet towels–so many items that we used and didn’t have to bring from home. This was our pup’s first visit to the beach and we think she appreciated her time as well–what’s the saying…”a tired dog is a happy dog!” and she was pooped out and happy!
During the week, we took a trip to Apalachicola–what a quaint little town with its shops, restaurants and fishing village feel. We also went to the nearby Indian Pass Raw Bar and ate some of the best and most fresh shrimp and oysters. We’re very much looking forward to another visit to the Cape–maybe during scalloping season next year so we can experience the scalloping adventure we’ve heard so much about. We originally considered visiting Cape San Blas for only a long weekend. We are so glad we decided on staying a full week–what a marvelous week it was!
No worries on the DVD player–you’re correct that our player at home is Blue Ray and the one at Gulf Breeze is not. Since you have HBO at the condo, we found plenty of other movies to enjoy.
Feel free to use any of my comments for your website. Thank you, again, for all of your help and service.
We arrived home safely and are recovering from vacation. We enjoyed our stay at Barrier Dunes. While we were there we took a sunset horseback ride with Two Bit Stables and enjoyed exploring the area. We visited Apalachicola and found it quaint while we were there we ate at the OWL restaurant food was excellent. We enjoyed the Indian Pass Raw Bar the baked oysters were superb and the steam shrimp was excellent. We ate at the Dockside Restaurant twice and sat in their dog-friendly outside seating area. I am attaching a couple of pictures.
We stayed at Sea Breeze for two weeks in January. Our only regret is that we didn’t plan to stay longer! Everything about Barrier Dunes was absolutely perfect for us…from outstanding communication with Wendy, to the beautiful condo and its location near the beach, and especially the fact that the condo AND the beach were dog friendly. We had never vacationed with Charlie (a full-size Collie!) before, but he loved the beach as well. We met so many wonderful, friendly people (and their fur-children!) and we are planning to go back next year for a month.
What we loved most, besides the dog-friendly atmosphere, is that Cape San Blas is quiet this time of year, and somewhat remote. Golf and restaurants aren’t too far away, though. We found a couple of restaurants that allowed Charlie to come along too! We met a couple on the beach that was from our home state and the guys played golf a couple of times. We got lots of exercise walking through the neighborhood and on the beach; when it was cool outside we took the time to get caught up on some reading. We give Sea Breeze and Barrier Dunes an A+!
Wendy, Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our first trip to the Cape. Sea Breeze (52) far exceeded our expectations. We found the home very clean and well stocked, (which was much appreciated). It was also very short walk to beach and pool areas. We really loved the beach (great sunset’s!), both pool areas and just relaxing. Husband really enjoyed fishing on the beach. I would highly recommend the Cape to anyone who travels with their pets. We travel with our 8yr old Maltipoo, who loves the beach as much as we do!! Pleased to find such a pet friendly place!! This was our first time to area, but hopefully not our last. We loved everything about the Cape and hope to be repeat guests at Sea Breeze. Thank you for making the whole process so easy and being available for any questions we had.
