Cute Hidden Gem
After years of visiting San Blas with other families, staying in big houses, this year I visited solo and am so glad I found Scallop Cove - never even knew these cute cottages were back there! This was perfect for just me and would have been fine for a family of 3 or 4 (and dog) too. Location was great, it's nice and quiet back there and the view out the back porch and patio is lovely. Easy walk to the beach across the street and nice to be able to pop in to the shop for a sandwich or snack. Easy check in and out, wish I could have stayed longer!

Perfect View & Cozy House
View is absolutely beautiful for sunrises! Run across the street to the private Scallop Cove beach access and see to die for sunsets! Fishing is great off the dock, perfect for kayaking to see stingrays, sharks, or snorkel when tide is lower to see starfish & crabs. House has everything you need and super comfy beds! We will be back in the future! ❤️

Clean and convenient. Could use some minor upgrades for boaters/ fishermen (outdoor power outlets) but overall nice.
