Perfect vacation getaway

We couldn’t have asked for a better rental or vacation! The house was beautifully decorated, plenty of room and the kids loved the pool. It was in a great quiet gated neighborhood and it was just literally right around the corner to the beach. I woke up every morning before sunrise to get pictures from the balcony behind the house on the bayside. It was beautiful, that was my me time with my coffee.In the evenings we walked to capture the beauty of the sunsets. The house was in a great location for easy access to restaurants and even Weber’s Donuts, sadly it was closed our week. The owners were very friendly and easy to contact with any questions we had or information regarding the area.Thank you Suzanne and Brian for sharing your beautiful home with the Kirby’s and the Faulk’s!

Fantastic home!

We've been traveling to CSB since 2013 and this is one of the best homes we've stayed in! This was our first trip with both of our daughters (ages 4 & 1). The layout of this home is great for families with young children since all of the bedrooms are on the same floor. Additionally, the walk to the beach was very easy so coming back to the house for naps wasn't a chore. It is beautifully decorated and has everything you need for your home away from home. The owners are wonderful and great to work with. We hope to be back in 2024!

Cape San Blas' Hidden Gem

We have beached all over Florida, and find CSB to be one of our favorite spots that we keep coming back to. On top of that, we were able to book a last minute getaway at the No Shoes Nation house which made the experience even better this time. The house is fully equipped with everything you need (including a cutting board! ; )), which made for easy packing. The walk to the beach is right around the corner and the view....oh that view ....is priceless from the top floor. Comfy beds and nicely decorated throughout, like straight out of Magnolia Home catalog. While we didn't bring our doggies, there was little (to no) trace that one has even been in there before, so yes, very clean. The pool was a nice added bonus, especially for the kids or a change of pace.and most importantly, the owners are great to work with! Definitely recommend and would book again.

Beautiful home

This was our first stay in NSN after staying in Sea Grass for over 15 years. This home is beautifully decorated and perfect! We will definitely be back.

All we needed was our tank tops and flip flops!

No Shoes Nation was exactly what we needed! Tastefully decorated inside and out. They have plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers etc, and included a great cart to haul everything to the beach. When we didn't feel like a beach day, we loved hanging at the pool and tiki bar, perfect addition to the already packed amenity home. There was plenty of room to hang out as a family, (2 adults, 1 teen & our four legged girls) and several outdoor seating areas if you wanted some "me" time. We were able to grill from the top balcony while watching sunsets and dolphin watching. Any questions or concerns we had were immediately answered by the owners.

Excellent property!!!

We had a great time at No Shoes Nation! The house was great and had a wonderful view of the Gulf. The overall theme of the property really made it feel like a vacation resort with the tiki bar, pool, Cornhole game, etc. Having the main living space on the top floor was great to be able to see the beach and sunsets while we were getting dinner. The owners/managers were very responsive to any concerns and the beach access was beautiful.

No Shoes is no problem.

You don't need shoes. Beach is a short walk or you can watch the ocean from the decks. Pool and tiki bar area is great place to hang out after the beach. Play corn hole and cook smores. Inside the bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious. Kitchen is well stocked and a lot of counter space for prepping food. Beach chairs provided along with Beach cart. Also access to kayaks which we unfortunately didn't get to use due to storms 3 of the days we were there. It is really a great house! Suzanne is great to work with.

Beautiful and relaxing beach house for our family!

Our family travels to CSB every year for vacation. This is our first time staying at NSN. We thoroughly LOVED our stay and are already planning our return! We loved the short, easy walk to the beach, the beautiful private pool, tiki hut, and the fire pit!! Our granddaughters are spoiled by the private pool and don’t want to stay anywhere else!

First time vacationing on the Cape

My family and I enjoyed every second of our stay at No Shoes Nation! Suzanne and Brian are the perfect hosts! Their home is beautiful and very clean! It’s everything you’d want and need in a beach home. The beach was gorgeous. We’ve never felt sand so soft, and we’ve been to a lot of beaches. Cape San Blas is so beautiful too. And the little town of Port St Joe is charming. We loved how family and dog friendly this area is! We’d highly recommend vacationing here! The only negative for us, was that we couldn’t stay there longer. Planning on vacationing there again soon!

We LOVED this home!

We just returned from a week at No Shoes Nation Cape San Blas, FL. This home was perfect. We did a lot of cooking due to Covid and the kitchen was well stocked. It is decorated nicely thoughout. It is super pet friendly and our dogs loved their time on the top deck. The pool has a bar area, corn hole boards, and a fire pit. There was a beach wagon, chairs, umbrellas. boogie boards,floats and kayaks. The owners were very responsive to any questions and did their best to accommodate when we rescheduled, bc of Covid. If you are looking for a great family house, awesome location, and private pool THIS IS IT! We will def book again.

Fantastic stay

We just had a fantastic stay at No Shoes Nation and can’t wait to go back! Everything you could need is there at the house and then you have the beach near too! The views, the pool, the kitchen, those porches all so perfect! Want a perfect weeks vacation? Go here! Be sure to eat at Skully’s -yum. Be sure to watch a sunset- beautiful. Be sure to look up at the night sky- twinkles forever! Enjoy! We sure did! Thanks so much to Suzanne and Brian! Y’all rock! P.S. Our dog, Tango loved it all too! He gives it 5 paws!

The very moment we saw the house and beach, I turned to my husband and said we are coming back here!!

Everyone in the family agreed that our vacation to Cape San Blas (CSB) and the "No Shoes Nation" house was the best family vacation we ever had!! The house is beautiful and located right by the beach. It was super clean and decorated just like you would want a beach house to be. In addition to the beautiful kitchen, the dining room, living room and bedrooms/bathrooms were gorgeous. Two of the bedrooms had a porch attached so that you could sit outside and enjoy the view of the beach. But the family tended to congregate on the upper level porch just off the kitchen. There were elevated Adirondack chairs with foot stools that were perfect for sitting and enjoying the view, reading or just enjoying everyone's company."No Shoes Nation" has its own pool, patio and pool bar. In addition, there is a hammock, games for everyone to play (inside and outside) and a fire pit. We were able to have a fire most nights, make smores and extend our time together as a family.The beach is spectacular. We have been to Hawaii, Tahiti, the Caribbean and other beautiful beaches. The Cape San Blas beach rivals any of them. Since CSB is basically a residential area without hotels, you do not have the crowds or commercialism you find at many other beach vacation spots. We loved it!! We are already talking about when we can go back there as a family and I have been texting and emailing friends about going to CSB and "No Shoes Nation"!! I would not hesitate to recommend and frankly "rave" about this place!!

Beautiful Beach House on Cape San Blas

We just got back from our second visit to No Shoes Nation and will definitely be going back. When we arrived the home was spotless, even with "sanitized" strips on the toilets. This nicely decorated house has everything you need without being cluttered and has a beautiful view from every window. Just sitting on the raised Adirondack chairs and taking in the gulf views was amazing. We enjoyed playing in the ocean and pool, biking, kayaking in the bay, and dining at Joe Mama's, The Owl and Provisions. One other good thing to know, you can order your groceries online (Piggly Wiggly) and pick them up on your way in. I was sad to leave this gorgeous place but am taking comfort in knowing I can go back again next summer.

Beautiful Stay!

Our Family (4 adults and 2 children) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at "No Shoes Nation". This Home has everything a family needs for a fun, active or restful time. Suzanne and Brian are very responsive and helpful, you can tell that they truly want you to enjoy their Home. The pool was perfect for our Family as was the short walk to the beach (which you can see from the Home's Porch). The Porch is a great place to have your morning coffee! The Owners have also planted a number of beautiful plants around the Home, which add to your enjoyment.I would highly recommend this Home and the Owners. We hope to be back again soon.
