Sue Martin (December 2014) We had the absolute best time ever at the Cape. Mercedes, our English Shepherd, had so much fun! All of the people at the beach were awesome. Mercedes played with most of the dogs who were used to playing with other dogs. By the time we left, everyone knew her name as she loves all people and animals. The condo was the best I have ever stayed in. I have stayed in many over the years and I was so impressed. The accommodations were more than I expected or ever had before. I had the best time bragging on how wonderful our condo was. The fact that everyday things you have at home are there at the condo was fantastic. I commend you on this as it really felt like our home for a week. It was so comfortable staying there. This is now our favorite vacation place. we are already talking about our next trip there and hope to be able to stay in your condo when we do. Thanks so much for making our Christmas vacation so wonderful! Happy New Year!
My lifelong fantasy of having a home on the beach was fully (if all to briefly!) fulfilled during our recent stay at Barrier Dunes Unit 1, Walking on Sunshine. There is much that we enjoyed about the property, but as a city-dweller who rarely sees stars, I especially loved sitting on the beach-facing balconies (outside the main floor and outside the master bedroom) and looking at the night-sky while listening to the ocean. Wendy and her on-site staff did a great job making us feel welcome. We loved the spacious rooms, beautiful and homey furnishings and décor, and were enthusiastic users of the outdoor grill and fully equipped kitchen (though we can also recommend the barbecue at the Sand Bucket, and pizza from Coneheads, which is literally at the entrance to Barrier Dunes). We found Barrier Dunes to be a great home-base for exploring the Cape, close to the St. Joseph State Park and a short drive to the many other attractions and activities. I highly recommend an “off-season” stay; you get a relaxed atmosphere and it is warm enough to spend time on the beach -I even waded into the water to get a closer look at a small flock of grey pelicans riding the ocean waves. The phrase “pristine beach” may be a cliché, but it truly applies to Cape San Blas and Barrier Dunes, all the more remarkable considering all of the dog-walking, fishing and other activity. You get a sense that visitors and residents all appreciate the unique beauty of the beach and are committed to its preservation. I hope to visit again sometime soon!
We had a wonderful time. My grandkids loved the loft. They had their own play area. Everything was perfect. Loved the layout of the condo. I loved the privacy of the bedrooms. I think it is the perfect layout for the 2 families. It was my daughter and son-in- law and 2 grandchildren We will definitely be back next year. I loved the beach, it was a great trip. The place was perfect.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful home.
We absolutely loved it. The house was great and very well stocked. The beach was amazing. This was the first time we have taken our dog on vacation and she love the beach as much as we did. We will definitely be back and would love to stay in your house again. Thank you for everything you did to make this a great place to stay.
Just wanted to let you know we thoroughly enjoyed our week. This is the 5th condo rental we have done and by far the best! Everything was great!
We would like to reserve the same week next year.
We so enjoyed our stay away from home. The place was immaculate, had all the necessary staples and in general all the accommodations were extremely comfortable. It was our home away from home! The beach front property will remain in our minds forever!! We certainly will make arrangements to come back in the future.
Thank you!!
