About

>Beach Front Home on Cape San Blas

Views - Views - Views!

The views from this home are breathtaking! From every room you have spectacular views of St Joseph Bay and the Cape San Blas gulf. The expanse of windows in the living area gives you a front-row seat to the breaking waves and playful dolphins. Or take a look across the room at the serenity of the Bay.

Outside decks grace the length of the house on two levels taking full advantage of the 100-foot ocean frontage. The side wrap-around gives morning people an amazing sunrise view over the Bay. The private dune-walk takes you right to the sugar-sand beach where a fun day in the sun awaits. When you return, have fun rinsing off in the outdoor shower.

This 4 bedroom, 3 bath home was completely remodeled following Hurricane Michael, offering all of the latest appliances, conveniences and style. From the moment you arrive you will breathe in the tranquility of your professionally decorated surroundings. The kitchen provides all the amenities the chef will need to prepare a home-cooked meal. Enjoy your meal around the farmhouse table that is large enough to accommodate all of your family and friends, while enjoying ocean views. After dinner, relax in the living area, complete with 55-inch flat-screen TV and Blu-Ray player. The Jack-n-Jill Laundry Room is conveniently located upstairs on the top floor.

The serenity follows you to each bedroom, all offering the same great views of Beach and Bay. One bedroom is on the main level, and upstairs you will find three more bedrooms, each uniquely decorated. Spa-like baths are beautifully tiled and have designer vanities. All bedrooms have their own private entrance to the deck, where you can lounge in the Adirondack chairs, read a good book or just soak up some sun.

The location and the views are absolutely fantastic. You will feel like you are on board of a cruise ship, the water and the waves are that close. My mother can't stand the sun, but was delighted to watch her grandkids play on the beach from the comfort of the porch. The house is so beautiful and works great for our 9-people combined family (2 seniors on the main floor, two teenage sons, a 7 yo daughter, and our bedroom all on the 2nd floor. The space underneath the house is so comfortable we played corn hole in comfortable shade, enjoying the ocean breeze. Great vacation!

Upon arrival we realized the place had not been cleaned thoroughly. We found food and food wrappers around the house. When we got ready for bed, my mother pulled down her sheet to find potato chips in her bed, so we had to wash her sheets at 10:30 pm. The other beds had clean sheets thankfully.
Other than that the stay went well, except there wasn’t much beach for my children to play on. At the beginning of the beach there was only about 5 feet of sand between the dune and the ocean. This widened as the weeke went on.

Manager's Response

The cleaner assigned to Goin' Coastal has never had a complaint before so we'll be sure to let them know about your comments. As for that beach, we've all been missing out on the luxurious sugar white sand that used to be there! At this time, there is no talk of beach renourishment but I'm sure it will be coming soon. In the meantime, we have other beautiful properties that are gulf-front and boast plenty of beach space. Be sure to call Coastal Joe at or visit our website at to book your next vacation to the Cape!

The house was exceptionally clean, very well maintained and decorated. The kitchen was a joy to cook in. It was stocked with everything one would need. The access to one of the bedrooms was a bit unusual. If it were up to me , I would switch it and put the bunk beds in the center room, but that is my opinion. CJ was great.The house was under contract and they made it painless as possible. We really appreciated the love that went into the house. I thought I submitted this review earlier, but forgot apparently

Oops, thought I left review last year. House was spotless, well maintained and cooking supplies were great! It was actually a joy to cook in. One of the upstairs bedroom had an unusual access , but knew that going in. Coastal Joe was great to work with . The house was under contract while we were there, but Coastal Joe made it as painless as possible!

The house was beautiful and literally steps from the gorgeous white sand beach.
Overall, everything was great! Just a couple little things...the bath towels weren’t the greatest and we could have used more of them. And definitely need to provide way more dish towels, two is not nearly enough. It felt like I was washing towels everyday. The layout of the upstairs is strange. To access the bunk room, you either have to go through one of the other two bedrooms or use the door at the top of the stairs to go via the deck. Not horrible but just not convenient. Finally, when we arrived to check in, the property was ready but hadn’t been “signed off” so they wouldn’t give us the keys. Eventually after waiting about an hour, they gave us the keys but asked us not to enter the house until someone came to inspect it. Finally after waiting past 5:30 and no one showed up, we just went in. Never did have anyone show up. Not the end of the world, but not a great way to start the stay. The area is VERY quiet which we loved. But there wasn’t a lot of restaurant choices unless your drive 20-25 minutes. So if you are looking for a lot of activity, the area is probably not for you.
With all that being said, we wouldn’t hesitate to rent this property again!

We had a great stay at Goin’ Coastal. The kitchen has all you need. The rooms are all outfitted with their own TVs which was nice. WiFi service was fast enough and reliable enough for our two kids to do virtual learning while my wife and I would work, and in the afternoons and evenings we loved the time on the beach. Even in the middle of spring break season this beach was quite and not crowded at all! The views are amazing! The waves were small and quite the first few days then the last few they were pretty sizable and made for some fun times playing in the water.


Note that the grill didn’t work properly - only one of the six burners would turn on and it was pretty rusty (happens by saltwater for sure, but we skipped on using it and stuck to the stove).

House was repaired very nicely. Beautiful place with great beach. Very well equipped kitchen. Sure missed the hot tub from last time. Enough so to look for different location next time. Great time. Here are the only complaints from our group. Both master beds had low slump spots( time to replace maybe?). Black dog hair in door tracks and on pillows and beds. Again hot tub gone. Washer and dryer in an awkward location to get to. Very few negative remarks compared to the beautiful, fun house on a great beach. Great time and have and will continue to spread the good word about "Going Coastal". Thank you for allowing us to enjoy this place.

This was our first visit to Cape San Blas. We had an amazing week in this home. It is newly renovated and has everything you need. The kitchen is a cook’s dream! It has very nice cookware and all the tools necessary to prepare meals. I would have to disagree with one of the other reviews on cleanliness. It was very clean, and was easy to keep clean. With the floors being hardwood style, it’s just a matter of sweeping up the sand. There is plenty of space for everyone. The screened in porch was so nice. That was our favorite place to sit and drink our coffee. We like that it is pet friendly and the beach allows pets. It is definitely a home away from home.

We love, love, loved this place! The house was amazing, right on the beach and was a perfect size for our family (5 adults, 2 teenagers). The staff at Coastal Joe Vacation Rentals was so easy to work with, however we never had an issue with the house so we didn't need to interact with them except for checking in which was a super easy process. The house was very nice and well maintained. We loved that we could have our dogs vacation with us. We took our kennel but there was already one there as well as numerous baby gates which was nice. Being right on the beach we saw some amazing sunsets. Our girls loved the two trading stores that were within bike rides of the house. We hope to go back next summer!

The view is amazing from Goin' Coastal. We liked the tall table on the deck to get an unobstructed beach view. The house is really well designed and well appointed with quality furniture and nice kitchen accessories. You always have a view from any room. We were very happy here with our dog and really never wanted to leave. The hot tub was great. We watched a sunset into the gulf and a "super-moon" rise over the bay from the hot tub.

Another wonderful week at this gorgeous beach house! Goin' Coastal was just as amazing this year as last! This year we never left. We stayed on the beach every evening past the sunset into the starry darkness. We cooked all our food in, no getting ready and going out. We bought all of our awesome supplies at the Trading Post just down the road. They had a full selection of fresh meat, produce, dairy, frozen and all boxed and canned goods. The ice cream is the delicious Blue Bell brand! This house is beyond incredible. The full kitchen is not only beautiful but is fully equipped with everything you need. The beds were pure heaven! It is beautifully decorated throughout.
Thank you Coastal Joe Rentals for another incredible vacation!! We are looking forward to vacation 2018!!

Goin' Coastal was absolutely beautiful. Beautifully decorated. Perfect location. Loved the deck and close access to the beach. Plenty of beach chairs. Beds were comfortable. The oven did take about twice as long to bake as it should. And one additional step leading down to the beach would be nice (for our not-so-young peeps).

3 complaints about the house
ice maker was extremely slow making ice, had to keep buying bags of ice
vacuming could have been better, don't look under any furniture
beach access was bad for me, I do steps but a 4 ft drop from the last step to the beach was unacceptable for me and dangerous for my small grandchildren, had to ask the neighbor to use their boardwalk, need to be addressed pronto

Manager's Response

Thank you for your feedback on the home. For sanitary purposes, we do have our cleaners empty out the ice bin when they are cleaning the home. So, the first day it does take a bit of time for the ice to accumulate back in the bin. We would be happy to reimburse any bags of ice that you had to purchase due to this. We will also have our appliance guy take a look at it just in case there is something else causing it to slow down. In regards to beach access, the last tropical storm that was in this area did erode some of the sand in the area of this home. However, fixing this is not as easy as it sounds. There are permits and certificates that have to be approved in order to make any changes on the beach as that is not the owner's private property. We apologize for this inconvenience but assure you and any future guest that we, along with the owners, are working to get this resolved ASAP. Happy to report that the access to the beach has been rectified and all future guests should have no issues getting to the beach.

Overall nice home. The only thing that needs immediate attention is the grill. It does not work. I called Coastal Joe and they brought another one, but usually you only find out a grill is broken the night you have guests over and you plan to use it.

We had an amazing weeklong stay at Goin' Coastal. Three children aged 1, 2 and 3 (cousins!) and six adults were very comfortable in the house. The beach is gorgeous and we saw dolphins, pelicans, and other amazing birds. We were blessed with perfect weather. Really enjoyed the Indian Pass Raw Bar! We will be back.

This was our fifth year spending part of the holidays in Cape San Blas and the second time renting this house. It was perfect. This house is in just the right spot for watching dolphins at sunrise and dusk. The hot tub is a popular place to relax and the kitchen is well-stocked and situated so that you can see the waved while cooking dinner. It's my favorite spot on Cape San Blas.

We booked our stay at Goin' Coastal last minute and the staff at Coastal Joe Realty were so helpful in any way possible and made the process super easy and stress free. We loved everything about the house, particularly that it is right on the water and you can see the beautiful view from every room in the house. Also, during our whole stay (3 days) we could count on our hand the number of people we saw on the beach. So peaceful! The hot tub at the house made our weekend so relaxing, it is HUGE and was very clean (just like the rest of the house)! We loved that the house is dog friendly and they even had dog toys in a basket when we got there, as well as a nice fenced in side yard for dogs. We had dinner at the Indian Pass Raw Bar one night and would definitely recommend that be a definite stop if you are coming to Cape San Blas or Port St. Joe. We will for sure be coming back to stay here again! We loved every minute of our stay in this quiet, friendly area of Florida. Thanks again Coastal Joe staff and the owners of this home!

Thank you Coastal Joe Vacation Rentals!! Our week staying in the 'Goin' Coastal' beach house was absolutely AMAZING! This splendid beach house location was absolutely perfect. We were close to stores and several quaint eateries. We thoroughly enjoyed riding our bikes every morning down to buy the fresh donuts at Webers Little Donut Shop (the deep fried croissant donut were pure heaven!)
Our week's experience is completely full of wonderful memories starting from pulling into the driveway the first time to pulling out the last time. In every room of this charming beach house the dcor is uniquely crafted and beautiful! The kitchen was tastefully designed and equipped perfectly. The appliances were top of the line. The cabinets were gorgeous and full of a large assortment of dishes, small appliances and cookwareeverything we needed to prepare all of our meals.
It was wonderful that we were able to see the sparkling blue ocean from every room in the house! The over-sized decks were truly incredible. All the tables and chairs and awesome hot tub provided our family with hours of relaxation. We were fortunate enough that we had exquisite sunsets every single night we were there.
We couldnt have picked a more perfect place to spend a week with our family. We are already making plans to book Goin Coastal again for 2017!! We look forward to making more sweet memories there!

Location of this house is perfect. Our family is growing so this house will probably not work for us in the future. Dressers with mirrors in bedrooms would be nice as occupants in some rooms had to "live out of their suitcase" since all garments do not hang in a closet. The sunset views were amazing!!! This was our first year staying on the cape, for many years we have stayed at Indian Pass. We had a wonderful time!!!

4 BED 3 BATH HOME WAS VERY NICE.
PORCHES WERE GREAT DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY. GOOD BREEZE AND SHADE.

KITCHEN WELL STOCKED AND THE A/C KEPT US COOL.

4 ADULTS AND 5 TEENAGE KIDS ALL FIT WITH ROOM TO SPARE.

WE DID NOT CHOOSE TO TAKE OUR PET THIS TIME BUT THIS
IS A VERY CLEAN "PET FRIENDLY" HOME.

HATE TO BRAG ON THIS ONE TOO MUCH...MIGHT MAKE IT HARDER TO FIND A VACANCY NEXT YEAR!!

REALLY HAD NOTHING NEGATIVE TO ADD. WE HAD A LARGE TIME. LOOK FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR.

The place was in a great location and right on the beach. It does have a lot of stairs to climb so not for any one that is unable to do that. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook meals. The beds sleep great and linens are good quality. There is plenty of parking. The gas grill only worked on one side but there is a charcoal grill there also. The air conditioning and fridge worked very well. We did have an issue with poor lighting on the lower outside stairs near the outdoor shower and with the bunk room sliding door sticking when you try to shut it from the outside but we told the management so hopefully that will be addressed soon. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again.

I want to start by saying that I would NEVER know that this house was dog-friendly. Extremely clean, no dog hair, no trace. However, there is a fenced in dog area connected to the porch that is extremely convenient. Beautiful property, great location. Book it.

all good except the gas grill wasn't functional and would have been great to have and the latch on the outside gate to the Gulf was inoperative so the dogs got out occasionally.

It is always beautiful at the Cape, even when the weather does not want to cooperate. Every window in this house has a great view. Both of St Joe Bay and the Gulf. Landscaping was nice. A few items: No light under the carport to be able to grill a night. Microwave is at an under counter height. Entry Door lock can be difficult to lock/unlock. Washer and dryer on ground floor. But you can adjust to this because you are at the Cape! The hot tub was great! Coastal Joe's was a pleasure to work with.

We just returned from a week at Goin' Coastal, and after 8 trips to the Cape, we may have found the perfect house for us. Usually it's just the 3 of us, my husband and I and our dog, Xuma. This year, one of our grown boys made the trek from Brooklyn to spend a few days too. The house is plenty big for a couple or more, and we loved being right on the beach. The big porches were nice although as evening comes so do the bugs. The inside layout was great, not a huge living area but perfect for a small group. We were able to get the TV to work without swearing, as well as the wifi. Kitchen was beautiful and well equipped, although we bring our own chef's knife as it's usually sharper than what's provided. The tile floors were freezing as the weather was pretty chilly the first few days, so we had to buy a beach blanket to stand on in the kitchen. Only thing that may prevent us from renting again in future years is that our dog is getting older, and the steep tiled stairs and several floors may make it impossible for our boy to go up or down. Some carpeting or treads on the stairs would make all the difference. We loved the small fenced in area for the dog, and also the gates on the decks so he couldn't run off. All in all, a wonderful home!

We stayed in this beautiful house right on the beach. There were 9 ladies that went on a "Girls Trip" to celebrate a friends 50th birthday. It was the perfect location, right on the beach which is beautiful white sand. We enjoyed the view, the hot tub that could fit all of us and the relaxed atmosphere of this area. Everyone on the beach stopped to chat and was super friendly. The only fault we would give this house was that they need more dishtowels, we only had 2 for a week long stay and there was a lot of dog hair. It says it is "pet friendly" and the people before us must have had dogs because we swept up dog hair the entire trip which I understand is hard to clean up. This house is perfect for a large group or family with plenty of bathrooms and we also used the washer and dryer a ton during our 6 day stay. It is decorated very cute and relaxed. I would definitely rent this house again and use Coastal Joe Vacation Rentals.

I thought Goin Coastal was a good vacation rental. Great views, nicely renovated. Only downsides were the hot tub heater stopped working. I reported it on Thursday, but no one ever showed. This rental like other Coastal Joe properties could have been cleaned a little better. It was not a mess, but it was not spotless either. I know with any rental it won't be perfectly clean, but the sand from prior guests should be swept off the porches. We would stay here again. The AC worked great and the beds were great those are the two biggies you need in a Florida rental.

We have rented numerous homes in various locations in Florida & Alabama and I must say "Goin' Coastal" ranks #1. The location is absolutely perfect. You have neighbors but the home's position on it's property prevents you feeling crowded. The home itself was beautiful and well equipped. The hot tub provides an excellent finish to a day on the beach. The home was also a reasonable distance from other towns along the forgotten coast with excellent shops and food. Coastal Joe's is a great management group to work with. There staff is always polite and even though we did not have any problems this year, in the past they have always proving to be very responsive and helpful.

Excellent Vacation Home.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Going Coastal. The house was immaculate inside and out. It offered everything that we needed. Super clean and modern. Beds were very comfortable! We also enjoyed the white sand beaches. It was beautiful! Unlike Mexico or previous stays in Jamaica, the beaches had no seaweed or debris. Lots of nice seashells ro gather also. I would highly recommend staying at Going Coastal. It was one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever encountered.

Our family gathered at this gorgeous house on the beach. We couldn't have chosen a more perfect location to celebrate Christmas. The house was spacious and clean and the location was phenomenal. Views of the ocean from every window. The hot tub was a popular place to watch the sunset. Truly the perfect place to vacation.

No traffic, no waits, no lines, just relaxing that’s the Cape. The location was great and could not be any closer to the waves without being under your umbrella and in your beach chair. The home renovations and decorations were done very well. Our family enjoyed the home, hot tub and beach. The decks and sunset views were wonderful. A problem is you may increase your waistline as the Scallop Cove market was very convenient having very good hand dipped ice cream, supplies and rentals you need. We made too many trips to for the ice cream! We had good food at Toucans, Joe Mamma pizza, Peppers, Sunset Coastal Grill, Owl Café, Tamara’s, Indian Pass Oyster bar. We rented a boat form Sea Horse and explored the bay as we enjoy the nature we find in the bay. If your there in July go Scallop “fun” and also shelling is great. If we had an issue and not a major one we would suggest improving the water pressure in the upstairs baths as it was a little low and the improve the driveway maybe concrete. Again great place to stay and God blessed our family for allowing us to make this a great memory. We recommend.

Great place to stay! Location is right on the beach, has a hot tub and is pet friendly. Plenty of room for our party of 5. Being a frequent traveler, I look for a place that is clean, has hot water and internet connection. Goin' Coastal had it all. I had a great first time experience with Coastal Joe Vacation Rentals and they are one of the best I've dealt with through the years. Highly recommended.

Nice home but has several issues that need attention!

This home was generally beautiful. The sliding doors onto the decks would barely open. The lower deck floor had a three quarter inch offset that we tripped over. The deck chairs were hard and needed some padding. There were no phones in any bedrooms. Over-all this home was beautiful,but needed some fine tuning. The management company was great and fixed what they could.
