About this property

Gulf views, steps to pool, fire pit, pet friendly, beach gear included!

Baron by the Sea is beautifully decorated in an elegant but comfortable beach style and thoughtfully stocked with an abundance of amenities. Situated at the north end of the Cape; you can bike or walk to St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, and just a few steps to the sand and water’s edge.

House was great - host was not

House was very nice. Host was not. Vrbo has a “Extenuating-Circumstances-Policy” that “protects you” for things beyond your control. Look it up. Things like mandatory evacuations. We were required to vacate the cape after less than 48 hours. The host refused to abide by the VRBO policy with the explanation that they reimbursed for two days only because we choose not to return after the mandatory evacuation had lifted. Who goes back after a cat five hurricane rolls through following a mandatory evacuation? House is a nice house - “Be Our Guest” gave me a zero star rating because I asked VRBO to enforce their own policy which is both petty and unprofessional.

A Week of Paradise

The week was magical, from the ease to get to the beach, the close proximity of the pool, and the beautiful Baron by the Sea home. The house had everything we needed and more! Will definitely return.

Perfect Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Baron by the Sea is such a beautiful home with all the amenities you could ask for in the most beautiful place! We loved the main kitchen/living area being on the 3rd floor. The screened in porch off the kitchen was a great relaxing place to drink our coffee in the morning, and unwind after a beach day. The kitchen had everything we needed to make family meals. The pool and hot tub were a huge plus when the purple flag was flying at the beach. There are two beach entrances and either one is an easy walk to the beautiful beach. It would take way longer to get to the beach from a high rise condo that sits directly on the beach. The house was clean and comfortable; it felt like home away from home and we didn’t want to leave. We would love to stay again next year for our annual family vacation and look forward to making more memories at Baron by the Sea! 🩵

Great stay on the Cape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything exceeded our expectations! Very spacious house extremely close to the beach and community pool. House comes with everything you would need for the beach so no need to pack your own. Owners provide kayak, 7 beach chairs and beach towels, 4 boogie boards, corn hole and beach toys. $250 beach gear credit got us free bikes. Short ride to the trading post and Skullys is only a 10 minute walk. Donna with the management company was extremely helpful and responded to any questions we had promptly. Will definitely rent through Be Our Guest again!

Great Fall Beach Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is great for summer and fall beach vacations. Great amenities for a fall/winter beach trip. Hot tub and fire pit were nice for cooler nights and weather not permitting beach lounging. This home was exceptionally clean. No dust on baseboards, crevices or smelly 'beach odor'. Cleaners definitely paid attention to detail. Thank you for sharing your home for a much needed fall break.

Fall break at the Cape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time staying with Be Our Guest Vacation Rentals, and it was a great experience! Baron by the Sea was a great house for our fall break trip with 5 adults and 3 children. The location was an easy walk to the beach with 2 access points close by. The pool was across the street although we did not use it (we prefer the ocean). There was also a hot tub and fire pit though we also did not utilize them on this trip. We spent lots of time enjoying the beautiful wide beach and calm clear waters. The house was lacking slightly on kitchen supplies such as large pots, sharp knives, and storage containers. However, Be Our Guest provided all the extras that we did not have to pack such as garbage bags, shampoo, soap, and even laundry detergent! Also great that beach towels were provided. Tons of beach chairs and toys were also included along with a kayak. I would recommend adding a life jacket as we had to rent one. Also the description said a beach cart was available and there was not one at the house. This was not a big deal for us as we have older children and the walk was short so it was easy to carry what we needed, but families with younger children could probably use one. We also loved that we could bring along our fur babies!

Wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay. Pictures are accurate. Short walk to the beach. We were glad we rented a beach cart, however, to make travel back and forth easier. Even with the rain we had fun inside the property with game nights and watching the rain on the screened in porch. Very clean and welcoming. Have bookmarked it for a future stay.

AWESOME STAY

My wife and I traveled with our daughter and four grandchildren to "Baron by the Sea". The house was wonderful. We arrived to a spotless home with everything provided. From beach towels, to a fully appointed kitchen, It was a 5 minute walk to a beautiful, pristine white sandy beach. Cape San Blas is the only west facing beach in the Florida panhandle, so we were treated to some amazing sunsets as well. THANK YOU for sharing your beautiful home with us. It was spectacular!!!

Escape To The Cape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cape San Blas is a special place. Located 20 mins door to door to Port St Joe and 30 min to the quant town of Apalachacola. Baron by the Sea is spacious and nicely located just off the beach and just down from the Trading Post, a family run store that offers just about everything! It is not for anyone suffering from bad knees as the stairs from the bottom to the top force you to exercise, DAILY HOURLY! The home offers nice views of the ocean, sun rise and sun set. The management company was amazing! Anything we needed was attended to instantly. Donna is terrific! We stayed nearly 6 weeks. Far to long if you do not care for sand as there is sand EVERYWHERE! Biggest disappointments. The community pool they advertise is not open during the winter. Had we been told this, we would not have rented this home and the pool people hired to care for the hot tub did not do a very good job of keeping it treated.

Honest Opinion it was not for us.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home needs repair. The M.B is in middle portion of home, making for a noisy rest, you can hear everything and everyone above you going up and down the steps and opening and closing any doors up on top patio where the kitchen and the main recreation area is located. Poor lighting in bathrooms, uncomfortable beds and there is not a KING size bed in any of the rooms; all beds are full to queen and bunks. Too far from beach to carry any kayak and if you manage to do so, be prepared for a high incline up the boardwalk to beach and back down again. Construction going on near house and beach access and the noise from main road is loud if your planning to sit out on any patio. Oh, the pricker burrs are everywhere so pets beware, the nonexistent landscaping around this home is no help. Sorry for bad review, but, for the money, it was not worth it to us. Great area, but, would not recommend this to anyone other than a group of spring breakers.

We had a wonderful stay with (6 adults) two grown daughters, their husbands, three grandchildren under age 4 and a dog. A lovely beautifully decorated and new home made our stay so nice . We enjoyed the fire pit, the screened in porch , and the pool right across the street.
