Second time staying here and it was just as nice as last year. Impeccably clean, nicely furnished and equipped, a one minute walk to the uncrowded beach. Only one thing, next year can you do something about the hurricanes that ran us off early? !!

Beautiful Beach House
Everything was just as described. The beds were so comfortable. We loved how organized and updated the kitchen was. It had everything we needed. We had a perfect view from either porche to enjoy our morning coffee. It was a very short stroll to the beach. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend!!

Best stocked home ever!
Great property - best setup as far as items in a property I’ve ever stayed at. All top of the like appliances, cookware, utensils, etc. It literally has everything you’d find at home and more. View is gorgeous. Beach access is easy. I gave it 5 stars because it truly is awesome - but know it’s not “on” the beach as there’s a residence between this & the dunes / beach. That’s clear in the description and is accurate. I would consider going back here, but I would look for something else first that’s right on the beach because that’s something very important to us. The owner’s communication is wonderful and everything is truly nicer than described and expected. If this were directly on the beach instead of one home back, I would have already booked it for the future. But that is truly the only “less than perfect” comment I can make. You still have a superb ocean view, feel, and sound. So if being right on the beach isn’t a #1 factor for you, but close with a great view is good enough - then you won’t find anything better than this. Being here made our week wonderful and we have awesome memories we’ll never forget.

Great Smaller Rental
Vesper’s View is a very clean, extremely well organized and complete property. We were very impressed with the cleanliness of the property at check in. The kitchen is supplied with basically all you will need for your needs. We really prefer crock pot meals and that was the only appliance we had to bring with us. But Vince the property owner was quick to reply to any questions and concern we had, so we knew ahead of time that we needed to bring one. Once there, Vince continued to be a great host and responded almost immediately when we contacted him about the AC unit upstairs having an issue on the last day of our stay. He had someone out within an hour to have it fixed. The location on the first tier still allows great views of the gulf, especially from the upstairs deck. The sunsets were tremendous, the beach was not crowded, the water was clear, and we had a great time. For a family our group of friends numbering five or less, this is a perfect property. Thank you Vince for a great stay at Vesper’s View

Everything was very well done. Property manager Vince was extremely helpful and responsive. Neighbors were great (though we got lucky and no one was in the other duplex when we were there). The four of us had everything we needed for a quiet, restful week by the water -- including a great view from the big, screened-in porch.

Great vacation thanks to a great location
I can’t say enough good things about our stay at vesper’s view. The condo was immaculate and the furniture was high quality. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were cozy. Though the condo isn’t directly on the beach, you still have a great view of the water from both balconies. My husband and I stayed with our 4 children and we had plenty of room, though we kept saying this is the perfect spot for 2 couples since each bedroom had its own bathroom. Cape San Blas was a great destination. The beach is beautiful and not crowded in the least. The locals at the local shop and restaurants are super friendly as well. All in all it was a great vacation for me and my family - we will definitely be back!

A few days on the Cape in this lovely property. We celebrated life with two birthdays and a passing with the scattering of ashes of a dearly departed. Good food, naps, walks on the beach and were even afforded an afternoon sitting in the sun even in Jan! Very comfortable accommodations. Highly recommend.

Quiet escape on the Cape
Vesper's View had everything we wanted and needed. We spent lots of time on the screened porch and upstairs deck enjoying ample ocean views even though the house is second row. The bed was very comfortable and the sheets were so nice that I searched for the tag so I could buy the same brand for beds at home. Plenty of towels, well-equipped kitchen, very nice washer-dryer set and nicely furnished. The couch, which is also sleeper sofa, was great for sitting and watching tv. Nice baths and good water pressure. Vince was quick to respond to our calls and texts and he provided some very good restaurant recommendations. His bar is also a fun place to visit and listen to live music. It's just a few miles down the road, near the turn off to the Cape. We would definitely book this property again.

From the start of booking to our last day I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Vince was always fast with communication and helpful but the real star was this great condo! Clean, spacious, well appointed, and a great location. From the moment we walked in and saw this wonderful place we felt at home. If you’re looking for a very nice place for 2 people to stay in the Cape I would highly recommend this.
