About this property

Cape San Blas Cottage - Beach side of the Cape - steps to the beach

REMODELED March 2022

The Dolphin Dance cottage is just a short walk - 30 yards or so - to the sparkling white beach of Florida's Gulf Coast. It sits on the beach side of the road, behind the beachfront properties. Minutes from Port St. Joe, Cape San Blas is quiet and remarkably free of the high-traffic, tourist area crowd. Cape San Blas is a peninsula, so there is no 'thru-traffic' to deal with either. If you are looking for a quiet, family atmosphere near the unspoiled beaches of Florida, Cape San Blas is a must for your summer vacation.

The kitchen has full-size appliances and a dishwasher in the center island. A stackable washer/dryer unit is in the smaller bedroom closet. Satellite TV in bedrooms and living room, local telephone and wireless internet also included. Bathroom has a walk-in shower stall. Sorry...no boat or trailer parking, but there are marinas nearby. Only one vehicle space available per reservation, no exceptions possible due to limited parking. Due to severe pet allergies, we cannot allow pets. We apologize, but we cannot make exceptions for that either.

One bedroom has a queen bed, the other has a full size bed and there is a sleeper sofa in the living area. Due to the cottage size, we recommend no more than 4 adults to fit comfortably.

Conveniently located behind the Tradin' Post, which offers pizza, various hot foods and sandwiches, groceries, toiletries and almost anything you may have forgotten! There is also an ice cream stand and some mornings there is a fresh hot doughnut stand.

Keywords: Cottage just off beach on the barrier dunes of Cape San Blas. Just behind the Tradin' Post, less than 100 yards from beach.

The Perfect Place to Stay
We loved staying in this cottage. It was perfect as far as affordability and location. The owner was very welcoming and went above and beyond to make our family feel right at home. The cottage had everything that we needed. The beds were so comfortable!! We have been to the Cape so many times and this was our second time staying here and we loved it! It was so hard to leave because of how much we felt right at home. Thank you to the owner for allowing us to stay here. I hope my review helps others to pick this place, too!

cozy family time
This was a great place for me, my husband, and our teenage daughter to have some good family time. The beach is a short walk away and there are chairs, umbrella, and toys already on the porch for you to take. It is also a short walk to the trading post and the ice cream shop! The place was super clean!. We would definitely stay there again!
