As a follow up to Hurricane Isaias that came through on Friday, Pineapple Plantation did not suffer any damage. The wonderful folks at Coastline were out early the next morning once everything was safe to check on all the properties that they manage.

While Cape San Blas Rd was closed during the hurricane due to over wash of the road, access to the Cape was quickly restored. We never lost power, and I’m very pleased to confirm that our recently installed Starlink service also came through everything without interruption.

The Cape itself did suffer a lot more damage this time as compared to the hurricanes that have come through in the past 5 years. There are quite a few videos out there in the various Cape San Blas Facebook groups. It’s been my limited experience that it takes at least several weeks (or more) to gauge the full impact on the beaches after major storms, once the surf and the tides have had a chance to settle down.

I’m also including a few screenshots of the FL511 camera on Cape San Blas Rd at The Rocks showing the over wash that was occurring Friday night, as well as screenshots that I took yesterday once the road was reopened.

Thanks again for all your many prayers and well wishes!!

Thanks so much for the many folks who have already reached out to us and shared their prayers and well wishes for Pineapple Plantation and the Cape.

As of Friday evening 10/9/26 Hurricane Isaias is a Cat 3, and is expected to make landfall later tonight (or just after midnight) between Destin and Dauphin Island, Alabama with 115 mph winds.

Due to the counterclockwise motion, typically the strongest winds and highest storm surge are east of the hurricane’s eye. While the Cape is on the eastern side of Isaias, we are farther away than when Michael hit Mexico Beach as a Cat 5 in 2018.

Here’s a link to the live camera at The Rocks on the Cape. This is what we will be following tonight and tomorrow. Just type in “Cape San Blas” to find the camera location. For those of you who haven’t stayed at the Cape yet, I’ve added an arrow noting the approximate location. The camera was online earlier this afternoon but it’s currently not streaming.

A BIG thank you to the folks at Coastline Vacation Rentals who have been working non-stop to make sure all their guests are safe and all their homes are secured. They do all this first before they take care of their personal homes.

Stay safe everyone!

Today is our 5 year anniversary at Pineapple Plantation, so this is the perfect time to share our plans for our biggest changes yet!

Here’s what we’re planning to do:
-fully screen in the main level deck and add outdoor ceiling fans
-install an upper level deck that fully covers the main level screened porch
-push out the wall of the existing foosball area and make it a 4th bedroom
-install a sliding door from this new 4th bedroom to the upper level deck
-replace all the upstairs carpet with a hard surface (hardwood, LVP, etc)

We are actually wrapping up the design phase now, and we’ve blocked out our calendar through the end of April to get all this done.

However, there’s still time for adjustments, and we would love your ideas for big and small touches so that we can incorporate as many of them as possible into the final design.

What else would you do if you had an unlimited budget? Feel free to go crazy with your ideas. For example, I considered modifying the elevator to go to the top level, and I also considered adding a large observation deck that would sit on top of the roof itself. While these didn’t make the cut, these are the type of “go large” suggestions that we would love to get from you all. We’d also love smaller ideas, such as deck lighting options and upper level flooring suggestions.

Thanks for all your previous suggestions over the past 5 years, and we look forward to hearing about what you have in mind!

A big shout out to the Vogt family for sponsoring a turtle nest on North Cape San Blas!

As a reminder, there’s still time to adopt ($50) or sponsor ($25) a sea turtle nest on North Cape. Here’s the link to the Florida Coastal Conservancy’s donation page. 🐢🐢

https://floridacc.org/ways-to-help/?

If your family has adopted or sponsored a North Cape nest this year, please message us by Sep 7th so that we can include you in a drawing for at least $100 off a new booking at Pineapple Plantation. Additional details are in our 6/27/26 post. Thank you!!

We are super excited to announce that your stay at Pineapple Plantation now includes Starlink Residential Max internet service!

This is Starlink’s fastest residential plan for both downloads and uploads. It’s also their highest network priority residential plan, providing the fastest speeds during the busiest hours.

While Starlink offers several residential options, we picked the top tier Residential Max plan as it’s best for large households, heavy internet users, frequent video conferencing, large downloads, gaming, and users who want the best possible performance.

While obviously a limited sample size, speed tests from yesterday and today have been extremely promising. Download speeds ranged from 110-387 Mbps and upload speeds were between 33-46 Mbps. To put that in perspective, our previous cable internet service often ranged between 25-75 Mbps download (typically on the lower end) and 5 Mbps (or less) upload.

We hope you enjoy this significant internet upgrade the next time you stay with us at Pineapple Plantation.

Summer 2027: 4 of our 11 prime summer weeks have already booked. We enjoy getting to know our guests personally, and we would love to host your family next summer. In addition, you will save up to $826 by booking directly with our partners at Coastline Vacation Rentals (850-227-3330) instead of going through VRBO.

This is not a FOMO post, and we know that many folks simply don’t know their summer schedule this far out. However, if you have narrowed your options down to a certain few weeks, we’d be more than happy to keep track of them for you and let you know when any of those weeks book. Just send us a message with your potential options and we’ll do the rest.

The 21 second video is courtesy of the Starr family. I typically try to keep videos between 10-15 seconds, but this was so breathtaking that I couldn’t bear to cut it.

Our family loves to play games while at the Cape, and we’re always looking to see what else we can add, especially for the pool area.

While pool basketball is new for this year, we introduced the BULZiBUCKET toss game last year. We hope you enjoy these as well as all of our other indoor and outdoor games during your stay at Pineapple Plantation.

We now have a shell lamp and a clam holder to greet you when you first enter the foyer. The lamp even has a cute little shell on top! While not as spectacular as some of our other additions, we hope they help you to more quickly get in to “beach mode”.

We are constantly looking to see what else we can add to make your stay the best it can be. Thanks for all your great suggestions over the years, as they have not only benefited your family but all of our other guests as well. Keep those ideas coming!
