Our top rated stay at Port St Joe

Very clean property, very new, all appliances and furnishings were outstanding, elevator was a little cantankerous but it worked most of the time. Great layout of rooms and very close to beach. We had a great week-three families.

Great location with relaxing pool

Spent a week here over the 4th and was very happy with the location and having the private pool. Plenty of room for family of 6 with beds and baths. Also loved eating outside on the screen in porch daily. Great communication throughout the stay and prior too. We lost water one morning, but sounds like that is somewhat "normal" in the cape. However, fast communication by owner and was only out for like 1 hour so no impact. Loved that the house was also dog friendly and wouldn't be able to tell by how clean the house was when we arrived that they allowed dogs.

Great family times on the beach and in the home.

The property was clean, spacious and the accommodations worked well for our our group of twelve, four of them kids aging 2-10yrs. The 4 king beds were nice for the grown ups with a bulk room for the kids. Very short walk to the beach and when too much sand we enjoyed the pool, both worked well for our family. The kids loved the time in the pool and on the beach. We had our one night beach fire and crab hunting which all enjoyed, kids for sure. Daniel was quick and great to reply to any questions or needs we had during our stay. This was the first time staying further up on the Cape near the state park, but highly enjoyed it. Did visit park a couple of times on our bikes. Very close to Cone Heads and LongBills restaurants which was convenient and good food. We also love ice cream so did head down to the trading post where you had a couple options for good ice cream as well. Our family has stayed on the Cape many time now and would rate this home as a favored stay. Great family trip for us.

Beautiful!

The facilities and stay was amazing! We had consistent thunderstorms that cut outside activities down considerably and these accommodations more than made up for the spotty weather. It's a well thought out floor plan and amenities that go there extra mile in creature comforts - from check-in and out to beach towels ready to go. Even if and when there are issues beyond anyone's control, Dan was amazingly responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

Perfect Beach House

Honestly this house had more than we expected, the kitchen was the best stocked appliance and utensils of any rental we have ever stayed in. The elevator was super handy once you figured out all the tricks like always make sure both doors are closed when you exit or it cant move to the other floors. The bedrooms were very spacious and nice. The distance to the beach was a breeze of a walk even for a couple 3 yr olds and a 1.5 yr old. The owners were very helpful and always answered the phone for the couple of questions we did have. I highly recommend this property and will definitely come back.

Great Beach House

Our family of 8 adults and 3 children had a great time at Stealin’ Sunshine. Loved the location. The house was clean and we had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. It was an easy 2 minute walk to the beach. We also enjoyed the pool when everyone was done at the beach. We will definitely be back if I can get the whole family together next year.

Adult Spring Break

The location of the house is absolutely perfect. Such an easy walk to the beach. Every spot of the house was super clean and comfortable. The check in process was super simple. There was a super cute restaurant directly across the street that we walked to. Hunt’s restaurant is also a great restaurant to go too. The weather was perfect for us. The host was extremely easy to get ahold of before we got there if we needed. We will for sure keep this house in our favorites for future trips. We had the best time and thank you for hosting us.

Great time on Cape San Blas

We had a great stay at Stealin Sunshine on the northern end of Cape San Blas. Property was a short walk to the beach and had everything you need in a rental property for 4 couples. The beach was not crowded at all and the outdoor shower was great for rinsing off after a day in the sand and surf. The pool was great for a small group and plenty of space to chill while taking a break from the beach

Beautiful and relaxing

The house was clean with beautiful views. Had all the amenities. Lay out was perfect for our large group. Everyone had their own space and the family room kitchen area was great. First house we ever rented that we were not on top of each other in the kitchen. Plus the kitchen was fully stocked with enough utensils, appliances and accessories to cook/make whatever we wanted. Pool was great! The elevator was a nice have for our older parents. Location was great. Beach had easy access, house had great view of both the sunrise and sunsets. Easy access to great places on Cape San Blas for eating or a short beautiful drive to the amazing town of Port St. Joe. The owners Dan and Lora were great. Awesome communication, easy to book with, extremely nice people! We got everything we paid for and more. Will definitely return again!!!

A Little Piece of Paradise

My family has been coming to the Cape for years, and we have stayed in many different properties. Stealin' Sunshine definitely ranks at the top of the list for best vacation home. It is located at the north end of the Cape close the State Park. The beach is beautiful and the water clear. With just a short walk down the driveway to the beach, it was easy to go back and forth to the house and carry our beach gear. And when we were tired of the sand, we could come back and relax by the pool. The house had everything that we needed for a week long stay. The kitchen was well-stocked and had all the amenities of home. I had great communication with the owners from the time I made the reservation until the end of the trip. They are quick to respond and answered any questions I had. I highly recommend this property and would absolutely rent it again.

Great house on the Cape

This house is very nice. The water pressure is the best we’ve ever had in 20 years! The deck off the top floor has a great view and was a nice place to nap and eat. The house does come with beach towels and extra chairs if needed. Pool was great when the young kids needed a break from the ocean. Elevator worked great Kitchen had everything we needed. The walk to the beach wasn’t too bad. The house was very comfortable for our large group. Also Daniel was very helpful with any questions we had and always responded quickly.

We had fun!

Nice quiet beach, house looks brand new. Kitchen has everything you want or need, the beverage refrigerator was a plus. Beds are comfortable, shower pressure is great. Screened in porch was used a lot. Loved having our own pool. Enjoyed making a fire and s'mores on beach. People are friendly, local bars/restaurants are small but good. We went horseback riding on the beach and rented a boat for a day. The house has lots of beach stuff, maybe bring a wagon.

We've already booked this home (not house) for next year!

This is not just a "house". It really is a place that you will feel like it is your home. We played games that the owners had available. Catan was our favorite. We have 5 children. 3 of them and their spouses stayed in this home with us. We had plenty of room and privacy. You can see the ocean from every window on the top floor. The kitchen is equipped with everything you would need... Instant Pot, Keurig, Coffee Maker, Vitamix blender(or something similar), plenty of silverware, plates, pots, pans, etc... Also, The washer and dryer are commercial grade. Other pluses for us was the charcoal grill, pool, walk to the beach, and the privacy of this beach. We literally had maybe two families to the left and right of us. This particular location has shallow water and then you shortly reach an ankle/midcalf sandbar. Clear water (not like 30A) but clear enough that you can see your feet and the silly fish that like to nibble on them. I have absolutely no negative comments for Stealin' Sunshine. The only comment I have is regarding the stairs to the beach. Be prepared to bring your cooler, small kids, elderly parents down about 10 steps. OH!! And don't rent a golf cart to drive on the beach! We did. But there is no access to the beach without getting on the road where you will get a ticket. And did I mention that Dan is AMAZING to work with!

Perfect spot to make the best of cold weather! Well equipped and pool was warm!

Great experience at Stealin' Sunshine - hosts with the mosts! So accommodating and easy to work with. App was great so everyone in our group knew what to expect. Paid to heat the pool and it was actually warm enough for our kids to swim in cold weather! Every kitchen appliance you could ever imagine is there. Elevator was fantastic to bring all our stuff easily in and out at the beginning and end of the trip. Beach towels offered weren't quite beach towels but usually houses give you nothing so we can't complain! We will definitely be back - our whole group loved the house and the location - close to the state park is a big plus for us! Easy walk to the beach too and sunsets from the decks.

Wow! What a place!

This was an amazing family vacation! Everything was seamless from entry to the house, use of all the accessories in the house/outside. The area was just pure peace and tranquility. The pace of the cape is very slow and very quiet. The beach was absolutely beautiful, soft, clean, and amazing for sea shells. We will definitely be back to steal more of the sunshine! Daniel also was extremely easy to work with and communicate with.
