We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The house was clean, very beautiful and the kitchen was well stocked. The beds were quite comfortable, and the outdoor balcony was a great spot to relax in the evenings.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Beautiful view but needs a lot of work. Hot water heater out, internet went out, kitchen is poorly stocked with things you need, roaches and dryer is terrible. Plus things: great communication from 360. Internet was fixed same day. Offered to fix hot water issue but we declined and worked around it. Elevator is a huge help. The place just needs upgrades for not to be top notch. It’s not there currently.
The beach location and view were great and the State Park beach and bay were also beautiful to visit. Plenty of space in the house with comfortable beds and linens and a convenient elevator for moving groceries and luggage upstairs. Port St Joe was nearby (10 min) for restaurants and fresh seafood if you dont want to cook. Kitchen supplies could use a new inventory to accommodate large groups and I suggest supplying beach towels for the property as bringing them in our very full vehicle was inconvenient. Check in and out was very easy and convenient. This property was very peaceful and quiet with only a few people on the beach as it was the end of the season. Very nice vacation and thank you for hosting us!

We are pleased that you enjoyed the beach views, spacious layout, and convenient elevator at Scallop Pass. We truly appreciate your thoughtful suggestions about kitchen supplies. Our team will be taking an inventory and ensuring it is properly stocked. We are glad you had a peaceful, relaxing getaway and discovered the great dining options nearby. We would love to welcome you back soon!
Everything was excellent! One thing that could be improved is the walk from the house to the beach. A boardwalk would be helpful for small children or the elderly as it is a long walk while carrying items and the sand can be super hot!!!

Perfect place to stay to enjoy the bay and the Cape
This is our 3rd time staying here. Best of both worlds with the beach across the street, always friendly neighbors and the large yard and bay in your backyard. Extremely clean and very well stocked. We will be back!

We are thrilled Scallop Pass was perfect for your family's beach getaway. It was a pleasure having you as our guest, and we hope to see you on the Forgotten Coast again soon!
This was our second year in a row staying at this property for our family vacation. When I asked the kids where they would like to go, they said "Same place as last year!" The property has plenty of room for everyone. The location is wonderful and we love that it is right on the beach. Nice clean property with plenty of linens for our family of 6. Will probably book this again for next year!

Hello! We are thrilled Scallop Pass is a fabulous fit for your family and appreciate you sharing your experience. Welcoming you to the Forgotten Coast is always a pleasure; thank you for being our guests!
Stay was fun, house was nice, clean, great location. The only thing that would have made it a 5 is a boardwalk to the beach. Most of the other houses next door had one. The pulling of beach carts on sand was a haul!

Beautifully decorated home. The master room bed was very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen. The house has four levels but there is an elevator that came in very handy for groceries and luggage.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was better than described. It was right on the sand with just a very short walk to the water with beautiful views throughout the home. Our only negative was that the property grounds aren’t well kept. There was A LOT of trash on the lot and a long the driveway. Overall great trip!

Great house
Extremely comfortable house. Everything is clean and the house has all your needs.
The area is still recovering but Port St Joe is less than 10 min away with a very complete supermarket.
We were able to go horseback riding at the beach, s’mores one night and play at the beach with our dog.
I would definitely recommend this place even for groups of friends or multiple families.

Thanks for your review, Mark. We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay at Scallop Cove #1, and it would be our pleasure to host your next visit to North Cape San Blas in the future!
We loved the view and beaches. The elevator didn’t work which was a really big bummer because there are 3 flights of stairs to carry luggage up and down, and just daily a lot of stairs, but they did send a maintenance guy out to attempt to repair. There are some locks missing on some of the sliding doors.

House was just as expected. Clean and kitchen well equipped. Two maintenance issues which were taken care of quickly. We were pleased with our stay. Short walk to beach which was not at all crowded. Very nice house. Check in was very convenient. Only downside was biting flies and lots if mosquitos. Be prepared.
