Gulf-Front, Pets OK! Spacious, Private Boardwalk, Pool, Theater and Game Room

Nestled along the untouched Gulf shores of Cape San Blas, The Lighthouse is more than just a vacation home, it’s a private luxury beachfront retreat designed to create unforgettable memories for families and groups seeking the perfect coastal escape. This extraordinary four-story Gulf-front estate combines modern luxury, unique amenities, and breathtaking natural beauty into one truly remarkable destination.

From the moment you arrive, The Lighthouse makes an unforgettable impression. Towering over the coastline with sweeping panoramic Gulf views from multiple levels, the home offers over 5,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space where comfort, entertainment, and relaxation come together effortlessly. Whether you’re planning a multi-family vacation, reunion, holiday gathering, corporate retreat, or special celebration, the spacious layout comfortably accommodates 16–20 guests while still allowing everyone room to spread out and unwind.

Every inch of The Lighthouse was designed with upscale comfort and convenience in mind. The home features 7 beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bathroom, closet, and balcony, offering guests a peaceful and private retreat after long days spent enjoying the beach. The sleeping arrangements are ideal for both adults and children, with luxurious king suites, queen bedrooms, and fun bunk rooms perfect for younger guests.

The heart of the home is the expansive open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, where floor-to-ceiling Gulf views create a stunning backdrop for gathering together. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped for preparing everything from quick beach snacks to large family dinners, featuring a gas cooktop, electric oven, double dishwashers, beverage cooler, built-in ice maker, oversized refrigerator, pantry room, and a collection of cookware and kitchen essentials. The large dining table and island seating allow everyone to dine together comfortably while enjoying spectacular coastal views.

Entertainment at The Lighthouse goes far beyond the ordinary. The private theater room delivers a true cinematic experience with a massive 98-inch Smart TV, immersive quad surround sound system, massage-enabled automated reclining seating, and oversized bean bag chairs, perfect for movie nights, sporting events, or rainy-day relaxation.

The dedicated game room was designed to entertain guests of all ages. Challenge friends and family on the PS5 or Nintendo Switch, relax in reclining theater-style seating, or dive into endless nostalgia with the incredible arcade machine featuring over 4,000 classic games spanning decades of retro gaming favorites. From Pac-Man and Galaga to vintage Nintendo and Sega classics, there’s something for every generation to enjoy.

For guests seeking relaxation and wellness, the top-floor spa retreat provides the ultimate escape. Unwind in the 3-person infrared sauna, soak in the Jacuzzi tub, or enjoy the luxurious wet-room shower while taking in the peaceful atmosphere of the home’s upper level.

The Lighthouse was also thoughtfully designed to accommodate large groups with ease and convenience. An elevator services all four floors, making transportation throughout the home. Three full-size washers and dryers help simplify longer stays, while multiple coffee and wet bars located throughout each floor allows guests to enjoy refreshments without leaving their floor. High-speed Gigabit Wi-Fi ensures everyone stays connected whether working remotely, streaming movies, or sharing vacation memories online.

Families traveling with young children will appreciate the included Pack-n-Plays, highchairs, toddler dishware, and spacious family-friendly layout. Even four-legged family members are welcome, as both the home and beach are pet-friendly — making it easy to bring everyone along for the adventure.

Every detail at The Lighthouse was carefully chosen to elevate your beach vacation experience, from the luxurious furnishings and entertainment spaces to the breathtaking beachfront setting. Whether you spend your days relaxing by the pool, exploring the natural beauty of Cape San Blas, enjoying movie nights with loved ones, or simply taking in the endless Gulf views from your private balcony, The Lighthouse offers a vacation experience unlike any other.

Great Family Vacation Week

Property had exceptional amenities for children and teenagers - pool, game room, theatre room, and great layout. We began an annual tradition of spending a week at Cape San Blas when our children were young and now our week includes 10 grandchildren and visits from other family and friends. This beach house was great for this event and the best we have rented. We have already booked next year and everyone is excited about returning to this property.

Great House!

This is a beautiful house in a great location. We have come to this area for several years and this has been our favorite. The access to the beach is great and even had some games for the kids to enjoy during some rainy days. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Best stay ever!

We had an unbelievable week at the Lighthouse! Three couples and 8 kids fit so comfortably and the downstairs game room and theatre were such a fun place for the kids to hang out. The house is gorgeous and so well equipped; the beach is wide and beautiful. We highly recommend this great rental and can’t wait to return!

Family Vacation

The Lighthouse is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. It has everything we needed and was plenty of house for 20 people. The theatre and game room were awesome for the kids. The kitchen had every thing you needed plus items for kids under 5 such as sippy cups, kids plates, pack n play, high chairs. We had red or double red flags every day so the pool was a necessity and came in huge for kids to swim in. All in all a wonderful place to stay for the week. 10 out of 10!

Very Nice Vacation Home

This was the first time we stayed in Cape San Blas - The area was so nice and very peaceful! The house was amazing - great indoor and outdoor spaces ! The walk to the beach right outside the house was very easy and the pool was nice to have since we had double red flags all week! The game room was very well used and the bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice! I would rent this house again for sure!
