Pet Paradise! Fenced Yard + Steps to Beach + Outdoor Shower + Beach Gear

Welcome to Cast Your Cares — Your Coastal Getaway in Cape San Blas!

Tucked inside the new gulf-side Villa Del Sol community, Cast Your Cares offers the perfect blend of coastal charm and comfort. Just a short stroll (about 5 minutes) down the community boardwalk brings you to the sands of Cape San Blas. After a sun-soaked day at the beach, kick back in the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living space, or head to the fully fenced backyard to grill and gather around the propane fire pit under the stars.

This 3 bed / 3.5 bath retreat is thoughtfully appointed, with a well-stocked kitchen, Smart TVs in every room (with Hulu + Live TV, Disney+ & ESPN+), and plenty of extras to make your stay feel like home.

✨ DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE for 2-week or longer stays from December–February – just send an inquiry to learn more!

🏡 Features & Amenities:

🐾 Pet Friendly! Up to 2 well-behaved dogs welcome (pet fee applies). Please ask about dogs over 75 lbs.

🛏️ Master suite on main (king bed), 2 upstairs ensuite bedrooms (queen beds), plus a queen sleeper sofa downstairs.

🚿 Enclosed outdoor shower with hot/cold water + hooks for towels/swimsuits.

🌭 Backyard with seating for 8, propane fire pit, and Weber gas grill (backup propane provided).

🎾 2 community pickleball courts (paddles + balls provided) and a swimming pool just across the street.

☕ Keurig Duo with a full coffee starter kit.

🍳 Fully stocked kitchen with cookware, dinnerware for 12, crockpot, Instant Pot, Ninja blender, and more.

🧺 Starter kits for kitchen and bath (paper towels, dish pods, TP, trash bags, etc.).

Relaxing

Our family enjoyed our 6 week stay. The Host are awesome and respond promptly. The beds are comfortable. Our dogs enjoyed the fenced in back yard, along with the walks on the beach. The home was nice and clean, kitchen had all required items you need to cook, along with an instant pot. We would definitely like to stay here again. Thank you Michelle and Julie!

This house was perfect!

Cast Your Cares is a great home for a beach stay with a well appointed interior, great location close to the beach and the community pool and a fenced yard that keeps your pups safe and offers a fire pit and grill. Our family really appreciated the personal welcome by the host and the amenities the host provided in the home. Would love to have stayed longer.

Loved our stay

This is a great house! Very clean and exactly as pictured in the listing. Kitchen had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. Fenced back yard was especially nice with the dogs, plus a nice seating area for us to enjoy. Its a gated community, so very quiet and very minimal vehicle traffic by the house. Location was nice in that we could get down the cape to the beaches or to St Joe for dinner or shopping in just a few minutes. I thought the nightly fee was very resonable for the location and what we got with this home. The management company was great to communicate with. They even let us know that a tornado watch was in our area. I would definately stay again. My only issue, and it is a personal choice, is the memory foam mattress. We are not fans of these mattresses, but that would not stop me from returning here for another stay. Plus, we didn't try the upstairs bedrooms. Those mattresses may have been different.

We stayed at Cast Your Cares for our family beach vacation with our preschooler and baby. Needless to say, the less thinking we have to do the better. This home was the perfect place as the hosts thought through everything from snacks to towels, beach wagon, blanket and chairs. Nice community with pool and pickle ball. We were grateful to include our dogs in the beach fun too. We would definitely stay again.

Great stay in cape San Blas

This property had all the amenities that we were looking for. Close to the beach , pool , pickleball , volley ball. Dog friendly and even had a crate, dog bowls and fenced yard! The fire pit was awesome in the back and the kitchen was full of top of the line cookware and cooking tools. The rooms were awesome as they all had their own bathrooms. We stayed with two baby’s and the stay was very convenient and comfortable. Would def stay in this house and area again!
