Breathtaking Sunsets and Exceptional Hospitality at Stairway to Haven    Jun 23, 2024

review star

Stairway to Haven is the ultimate Gulf front paradise where our family created unforgettable memories together. From the moment we arrived, we were mesmerized by the stunning multi-million dollar views. Nestled on North Cape San Blas, this beautiful six-bedroom home offered us plenty of space to relax and bond. One of our favorite spots was the covered watchtower, where we spent countless evenings around the firepit table in the cozy Adirondack chairs, watching the sun rise over the Bay and set over the Gulf. The views from this highest vantage point in Cape San Blas were simply magical and became a special part of our daily routine. Inside, the house was designed with family comfort and enjoyment in mind. We loved the two spacious living areas, which were perfect for our family movie nights and game sessions. The main floor's chef's kitchen and expansive dining area made every meal feel like a special occasion. We had fun experimenting with the commercial appliances and enjoyed making slushies with the dual slushie machine. Each bedroom, with its spectacular ocean views and luxurious bedding, ensured everyone had a cozy and restful place to sleep. The primary master suite, with its private bath adorned in glass daisy tiles and an oversized shower, provided a peaceful retreat for us parents. The outdoor amenities, including covered parking, a private boardwalk to the beach, and multiple decks and porches with teak and Adirondack seating, made every moment spent at Stairway to Haven a joy. What made our stay even more special was how warm and accommodating Kelly was as a host. She ensured that we had everything we needed and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Her attention to detail and genuine care for our comfort truly enhanced our experience. This home truly offered everything we needed for a perfect family vacation, filled with laughter, relaxation, and the breathtaking beauty of the Gulf.

The best vacay rental we've ever stayed in!    Jun 02, 2024

review star


Staying at Stairway to Haven was a truly unforgettable experience! This house is a true gem, with breathtaking ocean views from every floor AND room. Waking up to the sun rising over the water and ending the day with the sunset from the deck was absolutely magical. The beach in front of the house is one of the best spots on the Cape. We honestly had the entire beach to ourselves most days! The bar was stocked with beautiful glassware for every drink you could dream of making and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The tile work in the house is absolutely gorgeous. I kid you not, even my shower had a beach view! The rooftop tower was the true wow-factor, though. With panoramic views of the bay AND beach- we sat up there with coffee for sunrise and cocktails for sunset. The host was super friendly and helpful. All in all, this is one of the best beach vacations I've ever had! Cannot wait to go again!

Everything was just perfect for our girls trip!    Apr 27, 2024

review star

To be honest, this home was out of our price point; however, we just couldn't walk away.  All the girls chipped in more money to make it work and we were so glad we did!!  It's worth every penny and more!  Everything we needed was provided, even things like batteries, flashlights, candles, kitchen spices, beach towels, umbrellas, corn hole, bocce ball, indoor games too for the day it rained.  The bar was stocked with marg machine, commercial blender, expresso machine, electric juicer, glassware and the cocktails at sunset in the tower literally brought tears to our eyes.  It was just stunning.  We bought fresh seafood right down the road and made dinner nightly in the gorgeous kitchen.  It was my first time using a pot filler!  LOVED IT.  The bedroom and bathrooms were all themed and furnished with high end furnishings and bedding.  I stayed in the Costa Rica room with teak furnishings, hand woven chairs, and my favorite room was the daisy master bathroom!  If I could give more stars we all would.  Thank you Kelly for a vacation I will remember for the rest of my life!  Definitely, will be coming back with the family next time!

The tower is the bomb!!!    Apr 21, 2024

review star

Wow, wow, wow.  The pictures don't do the home justice.  It's 4000 square feet of pure heaven!  Plenty of room to space out for our family of 14.  We honestly cooked more this trip then any other vacation we've ever had as we never wanted to leave this house or beach.  My kids loved the shuffleboard and arcade machine, the adults loved the bar and we all loved the location, the beach and the evenings in the tower at Haven.  New furnishings, all beds and bedding were luxurious and the VIEWS, beach bonfires, plenty of seating inside and out for all.  Easy walk to Trading Post, Webers and daily ice cream for everyone.  Don't hesitate on this one folks, it's a home run!!

Just beyond spectacular!    Apr 14, 2024

review star

There are no words that adequately describe this home and our trip.  We've rented over 15 years on CSB and have never stayed in such a nice home.  The sweeping gulf and bay views gave us incredible sunrises and sunsets.  The owner has thought of everything to make your stay effortless.  From beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, multiple outdoor showers, parking for all of our cars and the boat!  Then the commercial well stocked kitchen, multiple living areas to spread out, the GAMES, the fully stocked BAR with a slushy machine, expresso machine, juicer, blender, just too much to list.  The home is decorated in coastal vibes throughout with high end furnishings and decor.  The watch tower with the firepit made endless memories for our family.  I could go on and on, just to sum it up we've already booked our next stay at Stairway to Haven!
