About this property
Tropicali! Wide Beaches of Seagrass - Pool/Kayak/Paddleboard
Introducing Tropicali! A 4 BR/4.5 BA home in the coveted, gated community of Seagrass. Tropicali is located on a larger lot in Seagrass, backing up to the privacy of a natural setting. Roominess, comfy beds and a loaded kitchen means you can choose how you spend your time, when not on the beach. The pure economics of staying in a home that's as nice (if not nicer in some cases) than beachfront homes within a 45-second limo golf cart ride to the boardwalk makes a big difference to your budget! Tropicali offers everything you need to enjoy your well-deserved vacation in this beautiful setting, nestled in the coveted community of Seagrass. Hop on the golf cart and zip (in 45 seconds) to the boardwalk with all your included beach equipment -- because you only need your beach vibe and sunglasses!
Being self-contained, Seagrass offers a family-friendly environment for biking, walking or riding the golf cart to the beach boardwalk (approximately 45 seconds). Just load up the cart with the furnished beach equipment and zip over to the wide beaches of Seagrass. Seagrass is located around the middle of the peninsula, convenient to Skully's, Weber Donuts and the Trading Post, with nearby public bay access and the State Park.
"Tropicali" was born out of our love for the cool vibes of memorable places we've visited -- Huntington beach in California and southern Honduras. Tropicali is fully loaded with all the items you need for your memorable vacation on CSB. We have fallen in love with this house because of the Gulf AND Bay views, from the top deck. The house is appointed and furnished with the quality products we expect when we travel and we are picky travelers! Check out your home away from home and let us know what we can do to make it even more memorable.
For a good night's sleep...
- King Bedroom #1 with en suite bathroom (shower, double-vanity) on the top floor, off great room & kitchen
- King Bedroom #2 with en suite bathroom (shower, double-vanity), on the first floor, with direct deck access, overlooking a wooded natural setting
- Queen Bedroom #3 with en suite bathroom (tub/shower combo, double vanity) on the first floor with direct deck access, overlooking a wooded natural setting
- Hall Bedroom #5 – bunk room with two full-size beds, shared hall bathroom (shower, double-vanity) on the first floor
After a day at the beach...
- Each bedroom has a 43” smart TV with free Netflix or access all your favorite apps and an Expanded Cable package on all TVs.
- Free Wifi keeps you online when you need to check-in
- Note there is no landline at Tropicali -- cell service is excellent in this area of the Cape
Amenities for fun and convenience...
- Huge private pool and deck (12x28, 3 - 5.5 feet depths).
- Shower on the back patio for twilight showers and a sand-free ending to your day
- One table on the back patio
- Included beach equipment: kayak, paddle board, beach cart and plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas and toys. We do not provide "tailgating" tents.
- The upstairs deck, conveniently located off the kitchen, has a gas grill (propane included), perfect for the catch of the day or fresh seafood you picked up at the local shop.
SPECIAL NOTES:
- Elevator has been installed and is helpful to getting items upstairs. However, the service is dependent on the guests' understanding and use of the instructions. We cannot be responsible for the guest not following instructions, nor the service provider responding on a timely basis to a remote peninsula.
- We are sorry, but Tropicali is NOT PET FRIENDLY due to prior inconsiderate guests.
* Read and understand all rules in the agreement regarding the Golf Cart. Renter assumes responsibility for all damage. The GOLF CART CANNOT BE TAKEN ONTO THE BEACH. It is for transporting items to the beach boardwalk IN SEAGRASS.*

- WE DO NOT ALLOW PETS, sorry.
- Cleaning and Linen Fee is $475
- Golf Cart Fee is $100 for the duration of your stay.
- Heated Pool Fee (November - April is $100 for the duration of your stay.)

About the host
Hosted by Carol Pittman
As the owners of Tropicali, we hope you come to enjoy special memories of relaxing and peaceful vacations with friends and family. We reside in Birmingham, Alabama and enjoy sailing and hiking. We have four children and eight grandchildren who have all enjoyed time at the Cape -- along with Ollie (the Aussie) and Libby, (Heinz 57 rescue). We have experience managing vacation memories on Cape San Blas since 2016.
We truly care about the quality of our homes. Upkeep and maintenance is a priority. We are NOT absentee owners. Our Vendors and Cleaning Team are true assets to the experience we provide.
We understand your time at the beach is something you've looked forward to, worked for, planned in great detail for months. If you appreciate that we do the same for our time there AND wish to be good and respectful during your stay, YOU are our ideal guest!

Why they chose this property
Tropicali is located on a larger lot in Seagrass, backing up to the privacy of a natural setting. Seagrass is a fantastic, family-friendly community near the Trading Post and Weber's Donuts. Roominess, comfy beds and a loaded kitchen means you can choose how you spend your time, when not on the beach. The pure economics of staying in a home that's as nice (if not nicer in some cases) than beachfront homes within a minute's ride to the boardwalk makes a big difference to your budget!
What makes this property unique
Tropicali offers everything you need to enjoy your well-deserved vacation in this beautiful setting. As a new construction home, it's all brand spankin' new, nestled in the coveted community of Seagrass. Hop on the golf cart and zip to the boardwalk with all your included beach equipment -- because you only need your beach vibe and sunglasses!
