Description Description
Set Sail at 5 is located on South 38th Street, 200 yards to the beach with no roads to cross. It is a ground level townhome with the open living space with living room, dining area, kitchen and half bath on the bottom floor and the 2 bedrooms are located on the second floor. Beyond the kitchen door, you’ll find a fenced patio with outdoor dining even complete with a ceiling fan hanging from the pergola to help move the afternoon air around. On the 2nd floor, both bedrooms have their own private deck each with its own gulf view. The deck off of Bedroom 1 is a little smaller with a minimal gulf view, but the deck to the rear of the townhouse off of Bedroom 2 is a larger sundeck with furniture and more visible gulf views. Both bedrooms have their own TV’s and full bath.

Like to stay active on your beach vacation* Here are just a few of the outdoor activities in beautiful Mexico Beach. Something for everyone to enjoy: swim in the warm turquoise waters of the Gulf or Mexico, collect sea shells (excellent shelling at Crooked Island, less than 1.7 miles west on HWY 98!), take a boat ride (a boat ramp is less than a tenth of a mile away from Set Sail 5), fish for the big one, go diving, kayaking, surfing, take in an eco-tour. Relax on the beautiful sugar white sands only a few steps away from Set Sail at 5 with a cool drink, a good book and an umbrella.

Mexico Beach is a nature lover’s paradise. Many bird species can be found in Mexico Beach. Look around and you'll probably see osprey, bald eagles, pelicans, herons and egrets. At least five species of sea turtles can be found in our area. Loggerhead turtle hatchlings come out in the late summer. Try to spot dolphins as they dive through the waves all year long. Sea turtles, urchins, starfish, crabs, and sand dollars are abundant here as well.

If you are looking for that perfect souvenir, a unique piece of artwork to remind you of your fantastic vacation in Mexico Beach, come explore the eclectic collection of locally owned shops and boutiques of Mexico Beach and nearby Port St. Joe and Apalachicola. Also, St. Joseph Bay Golf Club, just to the east of Port St. Joe, offers 18 holes of challenging play.

Perfect low key getaway
Mexico beach is rebuilding nicely and recovering from Michael. This is the perfect place for those that want to be away from people and have a relaxing vacation.

Ms.
I am generally NOT a beach person. That has changed since my stay at Song of the Cape! The location? Perfect! The accommodations? Perfect! Very peaceful place to stay and unwind . I will be returning.

We loved this house. The bed and couch were very comfortable and felt like we were in someone’s home, not a cheap rental. The location is perfect to the bay, ocean, store and restaurants. The sunrises over the bay each morning were breathtaking. It was nice to have a water hose and shower to rinse off and a nice entrance to keep dandy beach supplies away from living area! We would definitely stay here again.

The house was very clean and was new. Great location, convenient to all the general stores and restaurants. The beaches are beautiful, we had great weather and were able to enjoy them. The only negatives are the house does need more cook wear if you wanted to cook meals at the house did not have much to work with. And there is not a public access to the beach close by. We were able to find a path that led to the beach where a house used to be. The staff at Pristine Properties were great and made the rental experience easy. I would definitely stay at Song of the Cape again. Look forward to coming back.

Basic items missing
Kitchen items are very limited. For example no hot pads to remove items from the oven. No sheets for the pullout bed. Not enough bath towels. Might want to consider adding a grill for the back patio…which is great!
