The Hidden Pearl

Very enjoyable again. Hopeful that the seawall issues on the seaside of the building can be corrected safely and assuredly.

By far my favorite beach trip, the Hidden Pearl was a great place to stay. Easy check in and out process, great communication.
Only complaint or suggestion would be nicer furniture on the bottom area around the grill would be amazing! This area had a constant nice breeze and we would have spent many hours there enjoying meals if there was a better table/chairs.

Thank you for your feedback, Ellen. It's wonderful to hear that you had a great beach trip at the Hidden Pearl. We appreciate your suggestion regarding the furniture around the grill area, and we certainly take that into consideration for future improvements. We look forward to hosting you again!

Beautiful home. It’s so close to the ocean, we felt like we were on a cruise ship! lol. Loved listening to the waves crash against the shore. We found tons of shells, crabs, & wildlife. We pretty much had the beach to ourselves no matter where we went & we went in June! Def will be coming back. This was the most relaxing family vacation we ever had.

The views were incredible from all levels. The second bedroom view was of the bay. Very clean and nice beachy decor. We really enjoyed our stay. The condo is right over the water and we liked to sit on the screened deck or upstaiirs deck and enjoy the sights and sound of the waves

Thank you for your kind words, Kathie! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the stunning views and beachy decor during your stay. We hope to welcome you back soon for another relaxing getaway by the water.

This was an absolutely beautiful location. The condo was clean and comfortable. It did not have a hairdryer. You have the sunset from one deck and the sunrise from another. The beach has been Washed out, so the condo pretty much sits on the water. Standing on the east facing deck, all you see is water. You almost get that feeling you're on a boat. We had our two dogs with us. Port Saint Joe is very dog friendly. We were able to take them out to dinner with us every night. My only complaint is the Animal fee was very exorbitant. I was not notified of this, until someone called me the day before our check-in.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at our beautiful location! We are thrilled to hear that you found the condo clean and comfortable, and that you enjoyed the stunning views from both decks. We apologize for any inconvenience regarding the hairdryer not being available.We are glad to hear that Port Saint Joe was a welcoming place for your dogs to accompany you. Regarding the animal fee, we are sorry if there was any miscommunication about this charge. We will ensure that our communication regarding fees is clearer moving forward. We appreciate your understanding and hope to host you and your furry companions again in the future.

We had such a wonderful visit! Everything was as described and the views were absolutely beautiful. I’d definitely recommend this property to anyone interested in visiting the area.

Every year, we have visited Cape San for over 50 years, July trips are to celebrate my mom’s birthday- 88 this year! The Hidden Pearl is very close to gul, but supported by rocks and the beaches are on side are fun. The views are gorgeous, the water very clear, and we had better weather than predicted. An extra sofa in big living room instead of chairs would be more comfortable and could accommodate a group of seven or eight, Bathrooms are small, but outside shower is great. Decks are very nice. We watched beautiful sunrises and sunsets all week, This place was different, but so lovely. Extra cookware would be nice. Beds are comfortable in both rooms facing water’ Those rooms have big closets. Middle room would be more attractive and comfortable with regular bed. It’s the smallest bedroom plus has no window or closet. People could still sleep on sofas or a sleeper sofa to accommodate up to eight people, It would be more attractive and comfortable We had a great vacation, enjoyed fun in the sun, swimming, neighbors, watching fishermen and women, building sandcastles and collecting shells, Visiting park and going to town for a seafood dinner, visiting little shops was very convenient from this location. Pets friendly was a big bonus. Thanks for a fun family holiday.

Cape San Blas is cool.

Wonderful view with the Gulf literally right in front of the house.

- Posted: 3/29/2023

Overall a great place and great stay! The views cannot be beat. I could see the ocean from my bed. The top deck is perfect for stargazing and views of the Milky Way. We saw stingrays, pipefish, crabs, sharks, dolphins, and tons of fish!The property was clean and comfortable.

Enjoyed our stay.

Nice property, dog friendly, felt like we were on a cruise ship we were so close to the water. Unit has some minor cosmetic damage inside, but overall was nicely remodeled recently.

- Posted: 5/31/2022

Very nice property and well maintained unit. Love the privacy the upstairs deck and the screened-in porch provide. Thank you and we'll most definitely be back.

- Posted: 5/14/2022

You can't get anymore "ocean front" than this! Wonderful, well maintained unit. The privacy of the upstairs deck and screened in porch makes this a place you want to go back too.

The photographs in Vrbo showed a luxurious beach in front of the condo. There is nothing but water in front of the condo. You had to walk over to a small ravine in order to put down a sun blanket. Even then we had waves crashing on us.

Beach access from the units at Sunrise Sunset has been made more challenging with the beach erosion experienced in this area of Cape San Blas.

Clean. Plenty of space

We had a fabulous time at Southern Sunset! You cannot beat the location if you are looking to stay off the beaten path from a typical hotel/condo type beach atmosphere. At times it felt like we had the beach to ourselves and we definitely lucked out with beautiful weather during our entire stay (at the end of December!). There was plenty of room for our two families (7 total) and appreciated the washer/dryer, dishwasher and cabinets stocked with pots/pans/plates/bowls etc! Located near small grocery store and a few restaurants… we felt like we never had to leave the area! Would highly recommend.

- Posted: 1/1/2022

we love how close this is to the beach

- Posted: 10/9/2021

 It is a unique property. The view and proximity to the beach are extraordinary. The unit is nicely furnished and well equipped.

- Posted: 10/2/2021

We love this property.

- Posted: 9/25/2021

We did not like the fact there is no beach in front of the property. This also resulted in the fact we did see many dolphins close by.And that was pretty cool. 

- Posted: 10/23/2021

The property was not the one I originally rented - end unit of Sunrise Setset. We were looking forward to the views from the decks and extra windows in the bedrooms.

- Posted: 11/27/2021

We always hate to make the call letting a guest know the property they booked has sold and is no longer going to be available.  I'm glad we were able to find you another place and especially one in the same complex for the holiday week.

This is a clean property, right on the beach, with great views and sunsets. Dolphins and pelicans were spotted often. The living room couch is comfy but the 2 blue chairs in the living room are not. Beds were very good. We would go back.

- Posted: 9/19/2021

The unit was very clean and updated. The beds were so comfortable and everything was functional. You can’t beat the location. You walk right out to the ocean and watch the sunset or look out the front of the property and watch the sunrise through the trees over the bay. I will defiantly be coming back.

I loved being on the ocean and the view was great. There was easy access to the ocean.

- Posted: 1/2/2021

Very nice property and was located very near the beach(just a few steps). Also was reasonably close to Port St Joe for dining and grocery store. Within walking distance of small mini mart and beach clothing store. Water was extremely clear with almost no seaweed. Would book again!

- Posted: 8/15/2020

Everything was great! Would have been nice to have dish soap provided.

This condo is great! It is right on the beach. Every time we called with questions the staff was very friendly and helpful. The condo is beautiful and very clean. I love walking out on the balconies and seeing the ocean. One of the best vacations my family has had, and we will rent again! I can't thank you enough for having such a wonderful condo for my family's much needed vacation. I would give 10 stars if I could.

Great property, once items we've pointed out are addressed. Oh, thanks for providing the gas grill! Thats a big plus over a dirty unkept charcoal grill any day.
