About this property

Newly remodled FL cottage - 1st Tier - Gulf views - 100 steps to beach

Welcome to Cavanna Cabana! This newly renovated Old Florida cottage is located on the sugary white sands of Cape San Blas between Port St. Joe and Apalachicola, Florida. Cavanna Cabana is one of the original homes built on White Sands Drive. The Watsons purchased this home in 2021 and have thoroughly enjoyed bringing this cottage back to life. Relax on the front porch and enjoy Gulf views as it's located only 100 steps to the beach. Cavanna Cabana sleeps six, with two bedrooms, one bathroom and open concept living, kitchen and dining spaces.

Cavanna Cabana is one of the best smaller homes you will find on the Cape. Typically, to find accommodations of this size you must choose a condo and sacrifice privacy. This house offers the independence of a private home and is the perfect size for a couple, small family or snowbirds. Parking will accommodate four vehicles and boat/trailer. White Sands Drive is one of two locations allowing beach access for permitted vehicles. We would love to share our home with you!

Wonderful beach house vacation

Cavanna Cabana was perfect. Location, view, easy access to the beach, and the well-appointed house left nothing to be desired. Celia was top-notch with communication, and everything we needed had already been thought of. It's an easy place to settle into quickly. We'll definitely be back.

Wonderful beach house

This was the first time staying at this house. And what a wonderful experience it was! The whole house was beautifully decorated and the view of the sunset from the porch was spectacular! Celia was great to work with. We would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful

We loved our time at Cavanna Cabana. The house fit our family of five very well. It was very clean and well maintained. The short walk to the beach was convenient and the neighborhood was very quiet. We enjoyed its location that was close to the state park, and near enough to bike ride to the Trading Post. Happy memories were made!

Perfect Winter Vacation

We love spending our winter vacation at Cavanna Cabana. The location is perfect; beautiful sunset view from the porch (as well as the dining room) and convenient access to the beach and bike trail. The house is amazing, nicely decorated, comfortable, extremely clean and well-kept inside and out. The owner has thought of everything to make our stay special.

Great place for a quiet vacation.

We had a great time at Cavanna Cabana this week in June. The house is in a great location and you can sit on the porch and see the ocean. Great sunset views and moonlight views also. The house is very nice and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to go have some fun on the beach and enjoy a calm atmosphere. Relaxing Vacation. Russell & Alicia.

GREAT HOUSE

The house was very clean and had all new appliances that worked perfectly. The location is nice, because it is so close to the beach access. The views from the porch were great. Celia is the perfect hostess. She was always available to answer any questions I might have. I highly recommend this home.

Beautiful and very clean home with a wonderful view of the gulf

This home is beautifully decorated and very clean. I’m never disappointed and I feel that it is my home away from home with a view of the gulf. I will always book this house for me and my husband with our two dachshunds which love the large front porch to seat to watch everything around.

Loved It!

I can't say enough good things about our recent stay at Cavanna Cabana in Cape San Blas. It was perfect!!! Everything was immaculately clean, comfortable, and accommodating. The owners were super quick to respond when we had questions and when we needed help learning how to unlock and lock the door. Lol. The decor was absolutely delightful and created the perfect serene beach vibe. Our kids especially were delighted by the extra touches of the welcome basket of goodies, the informational art prints that identified local fish and shells, and the shells to sign. The owners had truly thought of everything. These special touches were just the icing on top of an already superb place to stay for us, our children and our 2 little dogs. From the nice appliances, the superb air conditioning, the ample hot water, the outdoor shower, the huge porch with a great view of the beach and ocean, the covered parking, to the countless other amenities, everything was just wonderful.We had the best time ever and would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Sincerely, The Painter Family
