Nestled along the untouched Gulf shores of Cape San Blas, The Lighthouse is more than just a vacation home, it’s a private luxury beachfront retreat designed to create unforgettable memories for families and groups seeking the perfect coastal escape. This extraordinary four-story Gulf-front estate combines modern luxury, unique amenities, and breathtaking natural beauty into one truly remarkable destination.

Towering over the coastline with sweeping panoramic Gulf views from multiple levels, the home offers over 5,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space where comfort, entertainment, and relaxation come together effortlessly.

Every inch of The Lighthouse was designed with upscale comfort and convenience in mind. The home features 7 beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bathroom, closet, and balcony, offering guests a peaceful and private retreat after long days spent enjoying the beach. The sleeping arrangements are ideal for both adults and children, with luxurious king suites, queen bedrooms, and fun bunk rooms perfect for younger guests.
The heart of the home is the expansive open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, where floor-to-ceiling Gulf views create a stunning backdrop for gathering together.

The private theater room delivers a true cinematic experience with a massive 98-inch Smart TV, immersive quad surround sound system, massage-enabled automated reclining seating, and oversized bean bag chairs, perfect for movie nights, sporting events, or rainy-day relaxation.
The dedicated game room was designed to entertain guests of all ages. Challenge friends and family on the PS5 or Nintendo Switch, relax in reclining theater-style seating, or dive into endless nostalgia with the incredible arcade machine featuring over 4,000 classic games spanning decades of retro gaming favorites. From Pac-Man and Galaga to vintage Nintendo and Sega classics, there’s something for every generation to enjoy.
For guests seeking relaxation and wellness, the top-floor spa retreat provides the ultimate escape. Unwind in the 3-person infrared sauna, soak in the Jacuzzi tub, or enjoy the luxurious wet-room shower while taking in the peaceful atmosphere of the home’s upper level.
The Lighthouse was also thoughtfully designed to accommodate large groups with ease and convenience. An elevator services all four floors, making transportation throughout the home. Three full-size washers and dryers help simplify longer stays, while multiple coffee and wet bars located throughout each floor allows guests to enjoy refreshments without leaving their floor.

This is a beautiful house in a great location. We have come to this area for several years and this has been our favorite. The access to the beach is great and even had some games for the kids to enjoy during some rainy days. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
We had an unbelievable week at the Lighthouse!
Three couples and 8 kids fit so comfortably and the downstairs game room and theatre were such a fun place for the kids to hang out.
The house is gorgeous and so well equipped; the beach is wide and beautiful.
We highly recommend this great rental and can’t wait to return!
We had a wonderful trip to Cap San Blas this year. We stayed in the lighthouse and it was beautiful. The house was a perfect fit for our family and we would recommend this house to our friends and family.
This was the first time we stayed in Cape San Blas - The area was so nice and very peaceful! The house was amazing - great indoor and outdoor spaces ! The walk to the beach right outside the house was very easy and the pool was nice to have since we had double red flags all week! The game room was very well used and the bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice! I would rent this house again for sure!
The Lighthouse is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. It has everything we needed and was plenty of house for 20 people. The theatre and game room were awesome for the kids. The kitchen had every thing you needed plus items for kids under 5 such as sippy cups, kids plates, pack n play, high chairs. We had red or double red flags every day so the pool was a necessity and came in huge for kids to swim in. All in all a wonderful place to stay for the week. 10 out of 10!
AMAZING PROPERTY! Wow! I cannot say enough good things about the thought and detail that went into this property! It was everything we thought it would be, and more! On top of that, the communication and attention to detail from the owners to ensure our stay was perfect was second to none! What a gem! If you are looking for a true place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and unwind and relax for awhile with family and friends...you found your place!!!
Property had exceptional amenities for children and teenagers - pool, game room, theatre room, and great layout. We began an annual tradition of spending a week at Cape San Blas when our children were young and now our week includes 10 grandchildren and visits from other family and friends. This beach house was great for this event and the best we have rented. We have already booked next year and everyone is excited about returning to this property.
The house is absolutely beautiful and it's in a perfect location! We have a large family and this house was very spacious. We loved the pool area and the home theater and game room especially. It was a perfect vacation for us - until we got home and received a message from the owner that we were being charged a 50 grill cleaning fee. We cleaned the grates thoroughly, but never imagined that we were supposed to remove the grates and clean out the interior of the grill. My rating would have been 5 stars across the board but this charge seems very unfair.
