Natural Retreats has an alternative to the flashier beach cities in Florida: Cape San Blas. Bring the entire family, even the dog. Located on the Florida Panhandle, this little beach town is all about peace and quiet. Natural Retreats has many homes to rent, but we recommend the “Ooh La La”, a 5-bedroom, 4-bath beachfront home with pool, which sleeps 14. You also receive a credit of $250 to rent beach toys, chairs umbrellas and even a wagon.
