Perfect Beach House

Great stay! Beach access was only a short walk away but we also used the golf cart to get there too. Loved the house and appreciated the communication from the owners during the hurricane! House was clean and exactly what was described. Definitely recommend.

Great October beach stay!

We had originally booked an October trip to Siesta Key but had to quickly look for a different option due to Hurricanes Helene and Milton. We were not disappointed with our choice to book with Andy and Travis in Cape San Blas! The house was perfect. Close to the beach, and the golf cart made our beach days so easy. The house was clean and well-appointed. We would definitely book here again!

Family vacation with pet

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunny Paws. The host was very responsive to messages. The location of the property was a perfect distance between the bay and the beach. The option to eat at Long Bills Restaurant next door was very convenient. Would definitely recommend this property.

Perfect place and great for pets!

House was perfect! Big rooms and extremely comfortable beds. House had it all, and the fenced in yard was great for our dogs! Short walk/drive to beach and golf cart was great to ride down to the bay. Most importantly the host are great, respond to you within no time at all. They answered all of our questions with no hesitation and very nice. Highly recommend this property! Thanks for having us!!

The perfect house for a family getaway

The house was clean and super cute. We loved being able to find a place that was dog friendly with a fenced in yard. It wasn’t a bad walk to the beach and taking the golf cart was a huge plus. We couldn’t find the bay access but could’ve been user error. I loved sitting on the deck and reading at night. It was the perfect place for us !

A great getaway

The house was very clean and well-maintained. It had plenty of space for our small family of three plus our poodle. We really enjoyed our stay there. It was very quiet, private, and nice! The new owner was very attentive and helpful.

My stay on “The Cape”

I recently vacationed in Cape San Blas, FL. My stay at Sunny Paws was beyond exceptional. I arrived to a spacious rental just minutes from the beach. The property was clean. It was peaceful. And it worth every penny. Andy and Travis have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and memorable.

A little piece of paradise

This was our first beach vacation taking our dog. Cape San Blas and this property are very dog friendly. I was a bit disappointed that we couldn’t enjoy the fenced in backyard because it was full of stickers and sand spurs. This property is convenient to everything and well stocked.

Great week on the Cape

We really enjoyed our stay. It was our first vacation with our 2yr old dog and we couldn't have asked for a better property. Knowing that the house is dog friendly I was actually really surprised by the cleanliness of it. I expected normal bits of dog hair here and there from previous stays but the place was really clean. The golf cart to get supplies to and from the beach was huge plus. The two restaurants, Longbills and Coneheads, are extremely close to the property and both were really good. I had a question about the golf cart so I messaged the host and instead of messaging me back he actually called me and we chatted for a few minutes and he couldn't have been nicer. Overall this place was great and the host's were great. It was our first time on the Cape and we would definitely not hesitate to go back and if we do this will be the first property we check the availability on. Thanks for having us guys!

Perfect for dogs

It is almost impossible to find a rental with a fenced yard. This house is the perfect place to be able to allow dogs to be safely outside without constant oversight. Everything about the property was perfect.

Sunny Paws was even better than the pictures on VRBO.

My husband and I, and our dog Sheldon, had a great long weekend at Sunny Paws. House is extremely well equipped for dog families. Huge fenced yard was really nice. Next phase you should add a fire pit out there :) Golf cart is a big plus for hauling supplies to beach. Outdoor shower was fantastic. Kitchen was the best stocked of any place we’ve rented. We will definitely recommend and hope to come back.
