Pet Friendly, 4/4.5 with Pool & Beach/Bay Views
Relax with the whole family at this peaceful retreat far away from the hustle & bustle of everyday life. Life slows down at the Cape. It's a magical place known only to a handful of people. The sand is silky soft & the water is shades of blue or green. (But, the occasional storm can turn the water murky.) The sunsets over the ocean are breathtaking, as are the sunrises over the bay. Cape San Blas is far enough away from big cities that you are able to see millions & millions of stars at night.
The Salty Mermaid is 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom townhouse in a quiet, gated community on the north end of Cape San Blas. It is a quick stroll to the sugar sands and blue-green waters of the Gulf. Each of the 4 bedrooms has its own private bath, there is an elevator that services all floors, a closet with beach gear, as well as stunning beach and sunset views! Take the community boardwalk directly down to the beach or take a dip in the community pool. Nearby, the entire family can enjoy the St. Joseph Peninsula State Park with adventures on the Gulf, the Bay, or utilize the boat launch at Eagle Harbor in just a few minutes drive.
The 4th floor beachside bedroom has a king bed with an ensuite bathroom. The bathroom has a jetted tub/shower combo. This bedroom has a private balcony with views of the pool, beach, and ocean. There are two Adirondack chairs and a day bed/couch for you to relax on out on the balcony.

Sea Cliffs is a gated quiet community on the north end of Cape San Blas. There is a community pool with a cabana and bathroom. There is a small playground area for children.

We do not give refunds for weather issues, including hurricanes unless there is a mandatory evacuation. Travel insurance is widely available and relatively inexpensive. We advise purchasing travel insurance, especially during hurricane season.
You are welcome to use the elevator, but please be VERY patient. It is slow and has specific instructions that must be followed for it to work properly. Couple of tips... make sure the inner and outer doors on all levels are closed or it will not work at all, when opening the outer door from inside the elevator, a little trick is to pull the door towards you and the push it open. Children under the age of 12 MUST NOT be allowed to ride alone or play with the elevator. It is a safety issue. You are responsible for ensuring the elevator is properly operated and not abused. It is very expensive to have the elevator repaired and serviced.
We now offer fiber internet.

Absolutely Beautiful Location
This property is even better than the listing! It is roomy and had everything we needed for cooking and playing at the beach. For my group with two teenage boys and three teenage girls, it provided separate spaces to prevent conflict as well as wonderful master suite for the adults to relax.
The location is perfect with beautiful sunset views and proximity to St Joe's State Park. In addition, all of the other residents/visitors of the complex were very friendly.
I would definitely stay here again!
