Description

GREAT ocean view, private pool, hot tub, fire pit, steps to the sand! North Cape

Don't Worry Beach Happy is an amazing 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home located just steps away from the beaches of North Cape San Blas, sitting 1st Tier but nearly beachfront, with breathtaking ocean views from two decks. A short boardwalk to the beach is directly in front of Don't Worry Beach Happy, just a few steps away. Inside you will find all of the comforts of home with a well stocked kitchen to cook your dinner feasts, a dining table that seats eight, a gas fireplace, and flat screen TV's in every bedroom.

Downstairs you have two bedrooms and a full bath. The Queen bedroom has beautiful ocean views, built in bookshelves, and a flat screen TV. The bunkbed room is a great retreat for the kids with a twin over full bunkbed with twin trundle that pulls out and a flat screen TV with a WII play system. As you travel upstairs you have a Queen guest room with flat screen TV and separate bathroom; and the King master suite with ensuite bathroom and deck overlooking the beautiful white sands and ocean views. Outside you will find two ocean view decks, a gas and charcoal grill, and an outdoor shower with hot and cold water. After a long day at the beach, you can retreat to your backyard oasis under the stars cooking hotdogs or smores on the fire pit and relaxing in your private NEW hot tub. Or lounge and relax and let the kids splash around in the ocean-side private pool (pool heat available for additional charge).

We also have a fenced in front yard to let the dogs play. Two dogs are welcome with a non-refundable pet fee.

Don't Worry Beach Happy is in walking distance to The Trading Post, Cape Ice Cream, Weber's Donuts, Peachy's, and Scallop Cove (all within 0.4 miles)! We are also situated by the bike path if you enjoy biking!

Don’t Worry Beach Happy was everything it claims to be. The house was fully stocked with everything you need, and then some. The walk to the beach was short and we managed it well with 2 small children. Ashley, the property owner/manager was absolutely great to work with. I would highly recommend this property.

The best place to make memories and have great family time!    Jun 09, 2022

"Don't Worry Beach Happy" was beyond perfect. Our family of 9 including twin 5 yr olds and a 3 month old plus 2 of our friends that became family got to enjoy Cape San Blas at such a wonderful family-friendly home. All the beds were so comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. We enjoyed the beach that was so easy to get to, the pool that is shaded for our young ones to enjoy after a long time on the beach, the hot tub to relax and the firepit for s'mores. We were able to have all our evening meals at the house. So no loading up to go wait for a meal. It is in perfect location to get to Scallop Cove or the Trading place and also fresh seafood to buy right next to the trading post. We will be returning guests next year. If not sooner. Ashley was so attentive and helpful. Our family was blessed to be able to have a week in this home.

Don’t Worry Beach Happy accommodated my family very well. We liked having the two bedrooms upstairs and two on the main level. The outside space and under deck pool was very inviting and the home is in a great location on Cape San Blas. We enjoyed kayaking in the bay and the launch area is just a few minutes away.
Thank you for a wonderful stay.

This property is beautiful and in a perfect location! Our family enjoyed the shortest walk to the beach, followed by sunning on the main deck, lounging in the pool, and nighttime dips in the hot tub. The main stores/ice cream/Webers donuts (get the Croissants, they are amazing), and fresh seafood are a .40 mile walk away from the property. Ashley, the owner, is responsive and helpful (although everything was perfect during the stay, we didn’t need her for anything other than check-in). We look forward to returning!

We really enjoyed our week at Don’t Worry Beach Happy. The house was spacious and clean and was perfect for our family and friends family. We had 4 kids with us aged 5, 5, 8 and 8 and they lived the bunk bed, pool and hot tub. We also enjoyed the hot tub! The short walk to the beach was perfect. The kitchen is very well stocked with appliances and utensils. We would definitely recommend staying here if you’re headed to Cap San Blas.

VRBO Review


Our spring break was wonderful at Dont Worry Beach Happy. The house was gorgeous and had everything we needed. We used the pool and hot tub every day. The walk to the beach was less than going to the mailbox at home. The views of the ocean from both decks was beautiful. Our 11,12&13 yr old would walk to the ice cream shop in the evening. We did a mix of eating dinner at home and going into Port St Joe to enjoy a meal out. We even drove to PCB to hit the maze and play mini golf. We were reminded of how bad the traffic is ! Cape San Blas is quiet and beautiful . We wish we had gone for 2 weeks . Communication with manager was almost immediate, although we had no need to contact during the stay.

This house was pretty close to perfect for a family vacation that was a long time coming. The house has an extensive view of the ocean, while being protected from the wind from the other houses around it. The beds were extremely comfortable and plenty of bathrooms to go around. The kitchen is perfectly appointed and there wasn't anything we wish we had. I couldn't tell you about the electronics because we never used them - too busy! The house is within walking distance to general stores and donuts! We needed a few more days to stay and take in everything the Cape had to offer.

Best Cup of Coffee Ever    Jun 20, 2020

Stayed June 20-27. Our group consisted of my wife and I, our oldest son and girlfriend both 26, my youngest son and girlfriend both 20, and my daughter and boyfriend 17 & 19. We found plenty of room in this spacious home. The three bathrooms one down and two up are very nice. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of counter space. The master bedroom is a wonderful space with an ocean view balcony where you will drink the best cup of coffee ever. Pros: The pool and the hot tub were a huge hit with our kids. The short walk to the beach is not an inconvenience at all. Located conveniently only a short bike ride to either the Trading Post or to Scallop Bay. The beach is not crowded. Great shelling and fishing right in front of the boardwalk. Ashley is super to work with. Cons:

Just returned from a month stay at this property. It is a beautifully decorated, totally immaculate property. Beds and linens first class. Location perfectly located between Scallop Cove one-stop-shop and The Trading Post for all beach supplies. Beach location amazing for easy access from newly built boardwalk and gorgeous sunset views. Can’t forget the fire pit area and hot tub! Love meeting all the wonderful dogs, and people too.

This was our first time at Cape San Blas and we absolutely loved it! The beach house was perfect and I don’t think we have ever stayed in a beach house that was stocked as well as this one. Very accommodating! The hot tub was perfect ! We ended up getting to come a few days earlier than planned and Ashley was great about working that out! We will be back and thank you so much for the get away we needed!

We've stayed in several different locations along the Cape and loved them all, but this one was our favorite! This house is in a great location. It was even closer to the beach than I thought it would be. Great views! The beach was basically empty, which was what I was looking for. I can't say enough nice things about the house to describe it. It was beautiful...just perfect! We hope to book Don't Worry Beach Happy for every future vacation!

This house is absolutely perfect. It’s beautifully decorated, clean and has everything you could possible need in the kitchen. The bathrooms were clean and modern. The bedrooms were roomy with super comfy beds. Even though the house doesn’t sit directly on the beach you still have a beautiful view and the walk to the beach is super close! The hot tub and fire pit were awesome as well. This house was just perfect for our family. We’ll definitely be back!

Tastefully decorated beach house nestled in a wonderful beach setting. Large house with 4bedrooms, pullout couch and even bunk beds. Great pergola with hot tub and even a fire pit. Be sure to bring makings for s'mores. If you're tired of sun bathing , try your hand at fishing. Try it, we can't wait to go again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely, peaceful home, just steps from the beach and across the street from the bay. We loved the comfy beds, the hot tub, fire pit, and more. There are several shops and restaurants (and ice cream!) within walking distance. The home was exceptionally clean and a perfect getaway for an instant vacation. We can’t wait to come back! —Gina
