Escape to SeaEscape - 1st Tier Gulf View Footsteps to the Beach! Pet Friendly.

SeaEscape is an immaculately kept 2 bedroom, 2 bath townhome at the north end of the Cape. Barrier Dunes is a family friendly, gated community with two swimming pools, tennis courts, playground, stocked fishing ponds, and convenient beach access. Barrier Dunes is a pet friendly community and beach, with dog stations throughout the entire complex for your leashed pets to vacation with you!

SeaEscape is beautifully decorated, with attention to detail and comfort. Tastefully
appointed with quality furnishings, a well-stocked kitchen, comfy linens throughout,
Fiber Wi-Fi, SmartTV and a washer/dryer. Make yourself at home and enjoy your well-deserved vacation. We strive to meet all your needs to make your stay memorable!

SeaEscape is a special property within Barrier Dunes. A favorite among repeat renters and returning visitors to the Cape, SeaEscape offers an upgraded experience, because the owners are sticklers for details and quality products. Beyond the impressive decor, we believe you have expectations when you vacation -- we do, too, and that's why we maintain SeaEscape to the best of our ability. Understanding that vacation time away comes hard-won, we want to deliver on a great experience that will have you coming back for more!

The location of SeaEscape offers beach access to the gulf front pool and the beach, with ocean views from the master bedroom balcony. Outdoor enclosed shower and fish cleaning station with sink located underneath the house. Just around the corner are the tennis courts and 2 pools. Also, there is a playground for the kids to enjoy. Kids will love to practice their casting in one of the three stocked fishing ponds as well as feeding the turtles!

In order to make your packing easier, we provide beach chairs, beach umbrella, toys, and boogie boards. The house also includes a enclosed shower in the carport and a fish cleaning station.

Other Information:
Situated at the end of Cape San Blas, Barrier Dunes is less than 5 minutes away from St. Joseph's State Park, a 2000 acre park that offers 3 miles of paved bike paths and 8 miles of beaches from the entrance to the tip of the Cape! The State Park also has a boat launch called Eagle Harbor. The bay is just like being in a life size aquarium where you can snorkel, jet ski, boat and kayak!

Note - There is a $100 pet fee per reservation. If you don't select this at the time of booking, we will charge a $100 damage fee at the time of check-out to cover the additional cleaning fees required.

These are important covenants regulated by the Barrier Dunes HOA:
- Any trailers (boats, bikes, etc.) must be parked completely under the town home

The location of this specific condo could not have been more perfect! So close to the beach, a pond for my boys to fish/catch turtles, and the main pool. The beds were super comfy and we felt right at home. The place had everything we needed from kitchen items, bathroom needs, and beach/pool supplies. With it being a gated community we felt very comfortable letting the boys (11 & 8) venture out on their own on their bikes trying to meet every dog there. Our own dog was very relaxed as well. The overall property is a bit dated compared to all of the new places going up on the Cape but the set up of Barrier Dunes will have us coming back for a while.

Great Stay

My family and I stayed for a quick Easter weekend visit. The place was very nice and very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was the best part because it was right across from the pool and beach access. Would definitely stay there again.

This was a great place to stay to get out of the hectic tourist area of Florida (where we live). The owner provided very specific information regarding the area and the condo itself. We were very pleased and plan to return.

Great accommodations!

Our family enjoyed this property very much. It was well maintained with plenty of extras which made our stay quite comfortable. The property is just steps away from both the beach and the pool which was very convenient. We easily warmed up to the property and location. What a great piece of Florida!
