Resting Beach Face – Your Perfect Cape San Blas Getaway! If your ideal vacation includes stargazing, beach bonfires, horseback riding, beachcombing, and true rest and relaxation, Resting Beach Face is for you. Conveniently located on the north end of the Cape, our home offers dedicated private access to the sugar-white beaches of Cape San Blas and private access to St. Joseph Bay—perfect for snorkeling for shells and scallops (in season) and enjoying some of the area’s bestbay fishing. Don’t forget your kayaks and paddleboards! Two public beach access points are also just minutes away to the north and south. The top-floor screened deck is the perfect place to unwind and toast breathtaking sunsets. Prefer sunrises Step onto the small north deck or take a short walk to the bay for a spectacular morning show. St. Joseph Peninsula State Park is only 1.5 miles away and offers a beautiful introduction to the Cape’s natural charm. Be sure to explore the Hammock Trail just inside the park entrance for a glimpse of native flora and wildlife. Port St. Joe and Apalachicola are a short drive away and offer all the charm and amenities of small coastal towns—great dining, local shops, and even a brewery in Apalachicola. Closer to home, you’ll find local favorites like Longbill’s and Coneheads to the north, and Peachy’s to the south. Scallop Cove General Store is convenient for last-minute groceries and beverages. For full-service grocery shopping, Piggly Wiggly in nearby Port St. Joe is the main option. And don’t miss Weber’s Little Donut Shop—where a dozen is never enough. Go early: the line can start forming at 5:30 AM for a 7:30 AM opening, and yes, they’re that good.
Bring your binoculars for birdwatching and night-sky viewing from the north-side top deck. On clear nights, you can see the Milky Way, thanks to the Cape’s minimal light pollution—stars truly feel within reach.

    We stayed at Resting Beach Face to celebrate my 50th birthday. We have been coming to Cape San Blas for many years and this was home was outstanding. The beds were super comfortable, the kitchen is extremely well equipped with quality items and my personal favorite - the bath towels- are so lovely and soft, even if you happened to get a little too much sun. The location is a very easy short walk to the beach or bay

    Everything was great. Very clean, nicely stocked with essentials. My children and their children used the house - three small families, three rooms - perfect. We own the house across the street, which is the gathering spot for a massive multi-generational extended family reunion each year. The location of RBF could not be better and we hope to be able to return next year

    The house was very clean, well stocked from the kitchen to beach supplies. The walk to the beach was only a few minutes, easy walk. Great location on the northern end of the cape close to the park. Excellent house for a family with lots of space inside and massive porches outside.

    Everything we needed to feel at 'home' was available during our stay at Resting Beach Face! Beds were extremely comfortable beds and swing chair on the deck helped to feel rested and relaxed at the end of a day at the beach. Truly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend if you are staying on the Cape!

    Absolutely loved our first trip to the Cape. House was super clean and very well stocked. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the screened in balcony in the mornings and evenings. Beds were very comfortable. Short walk to the beach but due to steps on beach access we found it easier to drive up and drop off chairs/coolers instead of trying to take a beach cart. Quick walk regaurdless! Will definitely be back.

    We had a great stay at Resting Beach Face. The home and landscaping were beautiful. The access to beach and bay are both easily accessible. We rented kayaks and fished bay daily and caught several fish from the homes bay access. I couldn’t have been more happy with the host (Darryl’s) quick responses and helpful information. We’ve been coming to Cape for about 23 years and have to say this was one of the most comfortable and enjoyable stays we’ve had. Couldn’t have been more pleased! I highly recommend this home couldn’t have went smoother from making reservation, to check in, and checking out!

    This was the cleanest and most well stocked rental we have stayed in. Hosts have provided everything you would ever need for a great beach vacation. All furnishings from sitting to sleeping are top grade and sooo comfortable. About a 5 minute walk to beach and bay with an ocean view.Highly recommend !!

    We just returned from our annual spring break trip at Cape San Blas! Resting Beach Face is by far the cleanest, well stocked rental we have stayed at on the cape. Darryl has spared no expense to make your stay enjoyable.

    Great house! Very well equipped, kitchen utensils, towels, beach chairs, everything you need for a relaxing beach vacation. Beds were comfortable. Location is great, one block from the bay and two blocks from the beach. We had a wonderful stay at Resting Beach Face!!

    This house was in a great location and housed the 6 of us with space to spare! Kitchen was well appointed and we cooked a lot! Short walk to the beach too! We will be back next year.

    Our young family had a wonderful stay at Resting Beach Face! We were pleasantly surprised by the house when we arrived. The house is very well stocked. We stayed for 3 nights and didn’t need to buy any of the basic necessities. They even have beach carts, chairs, umbrellas and canopies for guests to use and they are in great condition. The house is just a short walk to private beach access. Our 3 & 5 year old were easily able to walk to and from the beach. We loved that we could see the bay from the house as well! And great communication with the homeowners! They even left new beach toys for the kids! Nothing to do with the house, but we didn’t love that cars could drive on the beach.
