8/10 Good
"We liked staying here. Its directly on the beach. We have a few small issues when it comes to requesting toiletries, no room cleaning, and the walls and floors are paper thin. Trash service is simple, same with the towels. Set them outside your door and they magically disappear, and you get a fresh set of towels, but only 1 per day. We will stay here again, but be more prepared for the stay."

"Amazing Stay at Cape San Blas! We had a wonderful stay at Cape San Blas with three families, and this home was perfect for our group. It was spacious, comfortable, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed, with plenty of room to gather while still offering privacy when needed.The kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals, and the living and dining areas were ideal for sharing meals, playing games, and making memories. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, comfortable, and convenient for everyone.Miranda was a fantastic host—helpful, responsive, and wonderful to work with throughout our stay. Her hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable.The location was excellent, with easy beach access even for a large group carrying plenty of gear. We loved the beautiful balcony views, which were perfect for morning coffee and relaxing. The pool was another highlight and provided a great place to cool off and have fun.Everything about the property worked perfectly for our group. Between the beautiful home, excellent amenities, convenient beach access, stunning views, and inviting pool, our vacation was truly memorable. We highly recommend this property for any family or group getaway and would absolutely love to return!"

10/10 Excellent
"If you are looking for an easy, convenient, clean and tidy place close to the beach, this will fulfill your needs easily! We have been coming to the Cape for years and this was a lovely, and convenient location for us. Emily is an amazing host, who was very easy to book with, get in touch with if we needed anything, and she was a delight to deal with throughout. We were looking for a dog friendly accommodation and Emily has set her condo up to have pets. Her condo is incredibly clean and tidy and we all loved our stay. Easy, quick access to the beach from the condo, and she also has a good selection of beach items to use while staying (we brought our own) If you know the Cape - you are close to Scallop Cove for convenience and items you may have forgotten. We didn't need a massive beach place for simply my wife and I and our guests, this place worked perfectly for us. The only word to the wise is that I will say is that this is a condo with potential guests above you, and these condos have paper thin walls and floors. So, simply get to know the other guests and you'll be absolutely fine! If you need a quick getaway to the Cape and have a smaller party - look no further - you'll love it."

The views alone make this place special!A couple of things to note: the beds are smaller than queen size , and the mattress in master bedroom was quite soft and sagging,Overall, we really enjoyed our quiet stay and especially loved the beautiful views and easy access to the beach."

"We didn't realize this "apartment" was actually part of a family home, so that was odd for us. However, the space fit us 2 just fine, the bed was comfortable, and the surrounding area was lovely. When you're out of the neighborhood (which is a bunch of single family homes, not very "resort" like), you can enjoy the pool and direct access to the beach. We had a lot of gear to wash after beach adventures and this property had a hose, outdoor shower, and plenty of space to dry all of our stuff. The host was great and helpful. If you're looking for a very reasonably priced place to stay that checks the essentials boxes this will work for you."
