About this rental
It's A Shore Thing - New to our rental homes - Beautiful!!!
Very nice Newly Built upscale 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath with elevator and private heated pool. 1st tier home only 350 feet to the beach via boardwalk. The Gulf Views are very good from inside or from the well-furnished decks.
It has high end Kitchenaid appliances, custom tile, numerous smart electronics, and more. As with all of our rental family of homes, this home is well furnished and upgraded so you will have a very nice and comfortable home away from home for your vacation stay.
It is located just south of Rish Park and there is 3/4 mile of undeveloped beach to the northeast. It is a great place to take the 4 legged family members on a walk, let the kids ghost crab hunt in the evenings, or just wander off to and find your own quiet stretch of beach to enjoy during your stay with us.

Unique Benefits
Watch the dolphins play or a lovely sunset. Play in the Gulf of Mexico or the pristine bay. Scallop Season starts Aug 18 and runs thru the end of September.
Why Kids Love It
The beach! Some of the best memories we have with our family and as a couple were made here at Cape San Blas thru the years. I fell in love the first time we visited some 30 years ago. It's just one of those places you just want to keep coming back to.
Area Information
Cape San is a beautiful unspoiled piece of land that sticks out into the Gulf of Mexico. We have the gorgeous gulf beaches on one side and the pristine St Josephs Bay on the other. Kayak, shelling, fishing and just taking in the views. Scallop season is a favorite in the Aug/Sept time frame.
Come visit us at beautiful Cape San Blas Fl. Where time goes a little slower, the views will take your breath away and you can relax your stresses away!
Beautiful Sunsets, powder white sands, most of the time gorgeous emerald green waters.
We have homes from 2 bdrm that sleep 6 - 4 bdrm that sleep 12. We have homes with private pools. Gulf fronts to close Gulf Views. We have a great selection with a range of rates to fit your budget.

An Absolutely Perfect Beach Trip
We had the best beach vacation ever at It's a Shore Thing! From the moment that we booked until we (sadly) drove away, our expectations were far exceeded. We will most definitely be returning to Teresa's Beach Homes for our next beach stay!

It’s a Shore Thing
It’s a Shore Thing lived up to its name. It was the perfect house for 2 families with 4 kids. The house was clean and decorated adorably. Everything you needed in a kitchen was provided. The views for the decks were just as good as being oceanfront. The pool was enjoyed by all especially in the red (or double red) flag days. We absolutely loved our stay.

Perfect Spring Break Destination
It's A Shore Thing was an amazing house to spend our family's Spring Break. This was our first time at this house but we have already booked for next year. We spent the week with our children and grandchildren. We never even left the property as we had plenty to keep us busy with their amazing pool and close proximity to the beach. Working with Teresa's Beach Homes made the booking process so easy. They are also great if a need arises. We have booked through Teresa's the past several years and are always pleased. Don't wait! Plan and book your beach vacation at the Cape. You won't be disappointed.

Family Fun for All!
It’s a Shore Thing exceeded expectations with something for everyone. The well stocked kitchen provided a means to prepare delicious meals. All the puzzles and games enhanced entertainment. The elevator was very beneficial for loading and unloading. When the beach was too cool; the heated pool was a welcome retreat. Evening sunsets were a beautiful backdrop to close each day. It was a Spring Break enjoyed by all! Never disappointed with Teresa’s’ Beach Homes!!

Perfect Annual Getaway
Our family has stayed at It's A Shore Thing 5 times now (and have already booked our week next year!). Terri and Teresa at Teresa’s Beach Homes are super easy to work with. It’s a perfect house with lots of space for our young adult children, who often bring a friend or two, and we love having our dog with us! The home is gorgeous, well appointed, and the spacious decks allow for great sunset views of the ocean! The private pool is a nice spot to change it up after hours on the beach and the elevator is handy for getting all those groceries upstairs. The Cape is definitely our “Happy Place” and we can’t imagine ever loving another vacation spot as much!

A fun week at The Cape. Five stars for the house and to Teresa and the beach rental company.
The house was great and we had a nice time. Teresa was very helpful with getting the elevator repaired so my sister could access the floors. We greatly appreciate your help.

Owner response
Sharon,Thank you so much for your very kind review. I appreciate you taking the time to leave a few words for us. I hope to see you all back in the future.
Perfect score. Zero complaints. House was immaculate. Renting, communications, and directions were simple and straightforward. Absolutely loved the huge kitchen/dining room/living room being wide open and walking out onto 3rd story ocean front porch. The 2 master bedrooms and bathrooms were beautiful. Heated private pool was so nice for the kids and one final note, if you go in the spring make sure you fish off the beach. Can’t wait to return! God Bless America!!!

Loved A Shore Thing and Teresa’s Rentals are the best.
We spent the first of March 2020 at A Shore Thing. We loved the house, location and the heated pool. Teresa’s Rentals are the best to book through. House is very well maintained, super clean and beautiful inside and out. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Wonderful Beach Home
Rented Shore Thing in July of 2019. It was the perfect vacation home for a large family. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, large kitchen (with everything you need), elevator, pool, excellent views, close to beach, adequate parking. Would stay here again and again. The best fit I've found for my family. Also, Teresa's Beach Homes is a wonderful rental agency--you will not be disappointed.

Perfect week
We so enjoyed our week at Shore Thing! The house was roomy, and so close to the beach. The pool was so refreshing after a day on the beach. I didn’t think the adults would use it, but we sure did—everyday! The master suite was on the top floor and super nice; for the grandparents, having an elevator was especially helpful! We enjoyed watching sunsets and the night sky from the roomy balconies. We had a problem with the septic tank (that was due to the hurricane I’m sure), but all it took was one call, and a repairman was there within the hour. I think Theresa and her daughter are delightful, and are what makes Theresa’s Beach Homes THE BEST PLACE from which to rent on the cape! Wonderfully hospitable, professional, and determined to get things right for their vacationers, we will definitely use them again.

Great Place to Stay!
We loved staying at It's A Shore Thing! The house is beautiful and has an unobstructed view to the beach/ocean. The proximity to the beach is so close, it is literally a one minute walk. This house has everything you need and the pool makes it perfect! Teresa's Beach Homes was great to work with. We had an A/C issue the first day and Terri was over at the house herself within 20 minutes of our call and got the issue resolved so quickly. I highly recommend this home and would stay there again in heart beat!

It's a Shore Thing
This is our 5th year of vacationing on the Cape, and our 3rd of renting with Teresa's Beach Homes. I highly recommend Teresa's! Repeat guests are even given a discount. We've stayed in three different properties, and each met and even exceeded our expectations. Great people helping to provide great vacation experiences!

A Shore Thing
My family and I had three generations staying in this fabulous house. Well equipped, comfortable beds, the kitchen was a delight. We’ve stayed with Teresa’s Beach Homes for many years. They’ve all been clean, comfortable, and well equipped. However, It’s A Shore Thing just may be my favorite.

Awesome Beach House
I have stayed at It’s A Shore Thing multiple times. This was my first stay here under this rental company. They were terrific during the whole booking process and the stay. They kept me updated on the Cape amd things happening leading to the trip and during the trip. The house was in excellent condition. After 10 years of vacationing at Cape San Blas, I would highly recommend this home and company. The recovery since Hurricane Michael has come along way. The Cape still has the same laid back family vibe. Excited to stay again in the future.

Beautiful beach condo!
This is the 2nd year in a row that we have stayed in "It's a Shore Thing". It was a perfect size for our family. Loved that it had 4 bedrooms. Private pool. Quiet and just very nice. Teresa and her daughter Terry were very helpful. We definitely would stay here again.

Beautiful Sunsets
Located near the beach, this comfortable 4-bedroom house comes with fully stocked cupboards, elevator, decks & all the amenities. A super place for relaxing & watching gorgeous sunsets. Our 3 sons & their wives loved being there with us for our yearly get-together.
