DETAILS: A fabulous escape awaits at Ooh-Rah Beach, a stunning Gulf-facing retreat in South Cape San Blas! This unforgettable 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home accommodates 9 guests and features multiple living areas and breathtaking views from the upper balconies. Spend days lounging by the private pool or community pool, grilling freshly-caught fish on the propane grill, or enjoying evenings around the firepit. Only steps from the beach boardwalk, Ooh-Rah Beach provides seamless access to the unspoiled shores of the Forgotten Coast!
This vibrant coastal haven is striking with its blue exterior and exceptional outdoor space—sunbathe by the pool, fire up the grill, or gather around the charming picnic table for a card game. A cozy firepit provides the perfect spot for sunset shenanigans. An outdoor shower and the ground-floor laundry room ensure fresh beach gear for tomorrow’s beach day.
Upstairs, unwind in a comfortable living area with a large sectional and wall-mounted TV. At the end of the day, retire to one of 2 bedrooms on this floor; a lovely guest bedroom with king bed, TV, private bathroom, and access to a shared deck with Adirondack seating and plush outdoor furniture, or a versatile bunk room featuring a unique twin-over-twin-over-twin triple bunk bed and twin-over-full bed, along with a TV, private bathroom, and deck access with an outdoor staircase leading to the pool.
The top-floor living space blends colorful accents with neutral tones and textures, where guests can sink into the matching blue armchairs or stretch out on the L-shaped sectional as the TV hums in the background. Gather around the dining table, featuring 6 baby blue bistro chairs, or savor a snack at the 2-person breakfast bar. Create home-cooked delights in the galley-style kitchen equipped with high-end appliances. As night falls, retire to the stunning primary bedroom with a king bed, TV, private bathroom, and deck access. The top-floor deck is the crown jewel, boasting Adirondack rocking chairs, a porch swing, and an alfresco dining table—the ideal spot to unwind while listening to the soothing sounds of the Gulf.
Ooh-Rah Beach offers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, with on-site parking for easy access to nearby St. Joseph State Park. For beach access, the community boardwalk in front of the house leads to the breathtaking shores of the Bay and Forgotten Coast. Book now!

They had tons for pool floats, life jackets, and beach accessories they had a highchair for my son and games to play also!! Would recommend for family with kids and a great location we had a blast! Beach was perfect and close!! Thanks for everything!!
The house was amazing! We loved our trip here. Only issues was a bear getting into the trash every single night. Luckily our trash cans had locks but even the bear got into ours one night. Main shower didn't stay hot. House is fully equipped with all you need for the beach.
we enjoyed our stay, the shower’s could use a little work with water pressure and the handles themselves, and hot water (either too hot or too cold, couldn’t find a sweet spot) home was clean, stairs were a great workout with a baby lol had a great time! sound machines in bedrooms HUGE PLUS!!! they really thought of it all during this stay! the 7 year old loved the toys you could borrow as well! we didn’t think to bring pool toys, so that was a nice surprise!
Everything exactly as described. Beautiful house. Close to beach. Kitchen well equipped. Was a little surprised there was no cheese grater but we made it work! Hot water at first was difficult to figure out. Didn’t seem to be enough water pressure as long as you kept the faucet on in the bathroom while showering it was ok! Loved it!

This home is the cleanest property I’ve ever stayed In!
The pool was perfect, the beach is close. We didn’t need anything that we didn’t have in the home. This home is very well stocked, clean and comfy beds.
The perfect vacation home.
My only complaint- the bears (YES I SAID BEARS) tore up our trash almost every single night. No matter what we put on the trash cans, we had to pick trash up from all over the yard every morning. This was not relaxing.
Everything was fabulous. We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful property and loved how it was decorated, comfortable beds and lovely home. Quiet neighborhood… we really enjoyed the pool and close proximity to the beach. We had to leave early due to the threat of Idalia, but that can’t be helped especially the time of year that we stayed. We would have liked to have know what was provided and not, e.g. salt/pepper, condiments, etc so we knew what to bring. But other than that, fabulous stay. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
This house has a great set up for kids, parents, babies- all the things! Plenty of indoor and outdoor space to eat, gather, play and more. The beach is so close and having a private pool was the best. Highly recommend. I could have done without the branded cooler bag, wearable towels and Olive oil for some more trash bags, paper towels and dishwasher tablets.
Came for a week of vacation with my husband and two young children. This vacation rental was wonderful! Beautiful house and spectacular location. Very private with easy an 5 minute walk to the beach through a nature path. House is wonderfully maintained and you can tell
the owners are very attentive to detail. Weather was cool so we did not enjoy the private pool - but there were so many activities at the house to enjoy otherwise. Beautiful balcony lunches, games, a fire pit, and adventures on the beach. We wish we had stayed longer to enjoy this retreat away from it all! Thank you for the opportunity to visit!
The house was wonderful! Beautiful views from both decks. The boardwalk to the beach made it so easy to go back and forth with the kids. Super close to the beach with barely anyone there. House is very roomy and just right for my family of 7. Property management were so helpful. The only part that was not pleasant was the pool. We used the community pool instead. It We stayed in May and the private pool was ice cold.It was in the shade all day which would have been great if the pool was heated. The community pool was really warm.
