Vacasa made this home a disappointing experience.

The area was very nice and location to beach was perfect. Had issues with getting response from Vacasa staff regarding cleanliness of house as well as some maintenance issues. It took numerous phone/text interactions, and took until the next afternoon to get problems resolved. Would not recommend renting from Vacasa due to their lack of response in taking care of issues. We had 6 adults and 5 children and there was plenty of room.

Family Vacation/Salty Daze

The vacation rental was very clean upon arrival. The bedrooms in the house were nice and spacious with each room having its own bathroom suite. The house space was plenty for 6-adults and 3-children age range 4-11-years old. The kids claimed their area in the house which was upstairs where the bunk beds were located. The house looked exactly as what the pictures displayed. The decor inside the house was very nicely done and gave a feeling of being @ home. Having the beach literally across the street was a plus in addition to the pool @ the vacation rental. The pool @ the house was very clean and wasn't too big nor too small. It was just the right size for our family. Pool toys were great for the kids and the beach wagon was a plus for carrying beach bags and other items to the beach. The vacation home was exactly that a place where you knew you were on vacation because of the atmosphere and decor of the home. The kitchen had all the amenities you would want in a kitchen and not much else was needed. By the time we got use to using all the amenities it was time for us to leave. And the fact that you could look right across the street and see the ocean gave a feeling of relaxation and true vacation time. I liked the feeling of being in a home rather than a hotel room even though it was a rental home. The subdivision was very nice and quiet and gave a feeling of seclusion. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our 7-day stay and look forward to visiting the area again in the future.

Great vacation home

This property is steps from the beach and in a great QUIET neighborhood with a nice pool. It has plenty of room for a big family and I would recommend it to friends or family.

Salty Daze...a true gem!

The house was beautiful and very well appointed. The pool and the decks were very relaxing and there were chairs and umbrellas for a big family like ours. The walk to the beach was convenient and the items in the beach closet provided entertainment for the kids. There were plenty of beach chairs and even a beach wagon so we didn't have to rent or bring anything. We call the management office twice and got help within minutes. I have rented vacation homes along the gulf coast for 40 years and this home and Vacasa were the best!

Great home- definitely will come back!

Home was great for my whole family. Great layout for the family hanging out on the main floor. The house was extremely clean and updated. The pool was great after a long day at the beach. The beach access across the street from the driveway was easy & convenient.

Perfect for families with children and pets!

My husband and I traveled with our two geriatric dogs. We had three (litter mates) until we lost one of them suddenly in February due to illness. We could not travel without them due to their confusion and separation anxiety that followed. I was thrilled to find a pet friendly home with a private pool that allowed us to get away for a bit. This property was perfect. The pool and pool deck are a good size and the fenced in yard includes safe space for our boys to be off leash and secure. The stairs from the first floor to the pool deck were manageable for our boys and easy to navigate. It would be perfect for small kids who struggle to navigate a whole flight of outdoor stairs, which are common so close to the shore. The kitchen is well equipped and clean. While we did not use any of the upstairs bedrooms they were all well appointed and comfortable looking. The bunk room would be an adventure for children and was well constructed and solid. I noticed other reviews complaining of cleanliness issues. We did not encounter this and I am picky. There was dust on the blinds here and there but that is unavoidable in a home that is often open to the breeze. Speaking of the breeze, both large balconies toward the gulf are screened. This is a lovely feature because it allowed us to open the doors and enjoy the air flowing through the home without worrying about bugs. I loved reading on the balcony at every time of day. We would definitely stay here again and bring along many more of our family. It was well worth it for just my husband and me and the dogs to be able to be together so close to the waves and without a long stair run for the dogs to navigate to get there.

Room to improve

This is a beautiful house in a quaint and quiet location. I loved the close proximity to the beach and park trails overlooking the bay behind us. I pulled down a coffe maker from a top cupboard to find it still had coffee in it with a film of slimey mold covering it. Dishes in the cupboard were dirty, like they were put away without being washed. A bathing suit liner was stuck to the back patio door. While the cleanliness of certain things was disappointing, the most frustrating was not having access to the beach closet until our last day. Our families are from Indiana and did not bring many of the things that are advertised in the listing. We had no beach chairs, toys, etc because these things were supposed to be provided. After contacting Vacassa several times throughout the week and being told someone from the "local team" would contact me, I finally got a code that worked on the last day. Overall the house and location were great, but I probably would not stay here again because of all of the unnecessary hassle and cleanliness of some areas.

Salty Daze - Amazing!!!

The house was very comfortable, every room had their own bathroom and the rooms themselves were so roomy. The Beach only steps away is gorgeous and so very relaxing. The screened in porches were a heavenly retreat for morning coffee or to unwind from shell collecting at the end of the day. I went in December with family and gathering in the kitchen and great room for meals and games was exceptional, there was room for everyone whether at the dining room table the bar or in the living area. The time of year I went we did not use the pool, but that outdoor area was roomy ,private and tropical. There were some rainy days and the covered carport was a great place to gather outside while still being protected from the outdoor elements. There was also an outdoor shower that my husband thoroughly enjoyed!!! This house is perfect for large families or for Bridesmaid trips or other group trips!!! The other gem I must say is the PARKING, there is ample room for 6 vehicles to park!! Almost unheard of. This was a memorable trip thank you !!!

Perfect house for our family!

We had 6 adults and 3 young children with us on our trip. The bedroom setup was great! The kids loved being upstairs in the bunk room and each of the adult couples loved having king beds and private baths. We enjoyed the private pool on several days and the short walk over to the beach was easy. We loved the location being so close to Salinas Park and we utilized the playground, Pickle Ball courts and the scenic trail many days. The kids also loved being able to ride their scooters on the big driveway at the house. The screened porches were very nice and we appreciated all of the chairs, floats and the beach wagon that the storage closet was equipped with. The angle of the house allowed me to sit on the upper porch and watch the beautiful sunrise. He outdoor shower was also really nice after a day at the beach. I could see this being a place our family chooses again and again!

Owners should get a new local management team and Vacasa is not doing a reasonable job maintaining the home.

The house was amazing. It was just what we needed. We had a wonderful family vacation here. We loved the pool and the location. It would have been nice to know all of the lock codes to the beach closet before the last day.

2023 Family Vacay

The property is located in a quiet neighborhood and is exactly as described online. Access to the beach is directly across the neighborhood street so there is very little traffic. We are a group of 11, ages 5 to 67 and there was ample room for everyone, we all had a great time. We booked through VRBO but, Vacasa of Fl managed the property and they were very helpful.

Don’t expect a clean home

I have been going to Cape San Blas for almost 20 years. I have stayed from Indian Pass to the end of the Cape in different homes. This was the dirtiest house I have stayed in. One garbage can was overflowing where the other was half full, beer bottle tops found in living area and screened in porch, CDB butt found in screened in porch, clothing and half drank beverage found in pool area, cookie wrapper in pool, coffee pot not clean, unopened beer found by outside shower, drip pan on grill overflowing, bottom of grill covered in grease, kitchen counter tops dirty, we washed the sheets for we were sure they were clean, shower in master bedroom could overflow. I paid to expect a clean house, I didn’t get that!

Cleanliness an issue

While the house is comfortable and convenient to the beach and town, the condition and management of the property left much to be desired. Below are issues we encountered: • We received call on way down that there was an accident/stain on couch and that sofa cushion cover had been removed to be cleaned. The wet cushion cover was put back on sofa which made adjacent cushions damp. • Upon arrival, we discovered that the code provided was not correct. Fortunately, we were able to access the property because the door on the second-floor screen porch was unlocked. We found that the door would not lock and according to maintenance, is warped and needs to be replaced. The only way to lock the door is to close hard and have someone hold it in place while another person locks the door. • We finally received correct code for door 24 hours after arrival. • Dishes in dishwasher were dirty and food was caked on dishes and bottom of dishwasher – we had to wash dishes twice to get clean. We also found dishes with caked on food in cabinet – be sure to check dishes before using. Fortunately, we primarily used paper plates and cups. • Wad of hair was found between nightstand and bed. • Remote control was missing from bedroom which made TV unusable. We left message with local management company and texted. We received no response until hours later – after we reported via text to national management office. They did offer to send a cleaner but by that point we had cleaned up all issues. We did share photos with both local and national management company. Renter beware and immediately inspect house and report any issues as soon as possible

Great property with great beach access!

Every amenity you could possibly need with a board walk to the beach directly in front of the house. What a treasure. Hope to stay here again in the future.
