Once you stay at Pinnacle Port (PP) resort, you'll want to come back again and again.

Nestled between the Camp Helen state park and the private beach-home community of Carillon, Pinnacle Port resort is protected to the north by the picturesque inlet lake (Lake Powell), making Pinnacle Port resort one of the most secluded and quietest ocean-front resorts on the Panhandle.

Clean and airy ocean fun

We loved our stay. The owner was extremely great about communication. Loved my time on the patio watching the ocean. A lot of nice details in the home. We saw a few dolphins too! Check out Rosemary Beach just across the inlet when you stay. Beautiful association with great restaurants and shopping.

A Great Place!

My family enjoyed staying at this beach front condo. Check in was easy with a code we selected prior to arrival. The condo was extremely clean. It was very well stocked with more than usual items such as phone/tablet charging station, plenty of towels and beach equipment. The kitchen had every single item needed for cooking. We appreciated the extra amenities. We’d love to stay here again.

Love this Unit and location will definitely book this unit again next year. My family loves this area, and I overheard my Adult Son say to others how much he is looking to coming back. Owners have thought of everything you could possibly need and gave great instructions. He every reached out to me during our stay to confirm we were okay and if we needed anything.

Amazing stay!

Everything was so awesome from start to finish. Starting with all of the information sent from the host without ever having to ask. The condo was so unbelievably nice and clean. We have a 2 year old and there wasn’t a lot of things for him to mess with or get into which was a huge relief as well. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend this condo to anyone! Exceeded our expectations in every aspect.

October 2023 Family Vacation

We stayed at Michael’s condo for 1 week in early October. It is a very nicely updated property with everything we needed for a wonderful family vacation. Beds are comfortable along with the furniture. The location is incredible as it is a 1st floor property located steps from the beach access point, close parking, and close to the grills. The wrap around deck was my personal favorite as it was like you are sitting on the beach with a VIP sunset view every night. Michael was incredible with communication from beginning to end. It was our first time at Pinnacle Port and we loved how bikeable the area was with the Carillon neighborhood. We will definitely be back to PP and hopefully be privileged to stay at Michaels condo again.

We loved the wrap around porch and proximity to the beach. We were there for the 30 A songwriter's festival and the location was convenient to all the happenings (by car).

Wonderful beach-side property

Michael's place was Wonderful! Clean, well-stocked & well-kept!! He had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Comfortable beds and couches, hot water to spare & one of the best stocked kitchens that I've seen in my 20+ years of property renting. I will mention that the patio photos are not entirely accurate, the wrap around bar table ledge is no longer there, but there were stand alone bar tables instead...still nice, just thought i would mention, since i noticed the difference immediately. Steps to the beach, impressively quiet and Michael was very attentive & quick to respond. Would definitely recommend & stay here again!!

Panama City Beach Stay

Really enjoyed our recent stay at PCB. The condo we rented met all our needs for this family of four. Well stocked, clean and comfortable. The first floor location was right on the beach and a 5 minute walk to set up our tent oceanfront. We enjoyed our evenings on the patio watching the sun go down and listening to the waves roll in. Michael is a great host, always available and he provided lots of detailed information about the condo, local activities and restaurants. We visited Pier Park a couple of times having an abundance of dinning and shopping opportunities, it was just a short drive from the condo. The beach was great and one of the best we have been to in quite a while. A fun vacation, we would certainly rent from Michael if we visit PCB again. Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Janocik

Host profile image
We are from Louisville, Kentucky. We have been vacationing along the Panhandle of Florida for about 30 years because we love the area, the beach, and the ocean. We've been blessed with the unique opportunity to buy a summer vacation and retirement home, and look forward to sharing it with other families who are looking for a great ocean-front vacation stay, at a great resort, at a great value.
We purchased and renovated this condo in 2019. See our other 2 BR 2.5BA condo and owner reviews at Vrbo 633304.

Why they chose this property

We selected Pinnacle Port due to the memorable vacationing experiences we have had here with our family. The property has fantastic ocean views. Getting to the beach is a breeze - no gates or board walk mazes, just steps from our front door. Pinnacle Port is secluded, has a good selection of amenities, and offers a myriad of activities such as fishing, crabbing, kayaking, paddle boarding, or just relaxing on a quiet beach. Pinnacle Port's location is also a 10 or 20-minute scenic drive to Panama City or 25-35 minute drive to downtown Destin to spend some time shopping, dining, and enjoying nightlife. It's also a family-oriented resort with affordable rental rates, especially compared with comparable resort condos in other complexes along the panhandle.

What makes this property unique

The views of the gulf and coast line from the gulf-front balcony are peerless and, to use a cliché, breathtaking. That we are located on both the ocean and inlet Lake Powell is a bonus because we have a lot more active sea life such as our returning great blue heron, ospreys, pelicans, seagulls, and even fish and crabs swimming back and forth through the inlet that often connects to the ocean. Being able to saunter down to the docks with a simple crab trap to catch dinner, or walk to the beach with a fishing rod for a few pompano is hard to beat. Then add that Pinnacle Port is one of the closest resorts to the water, but at the very, very west end of Panama City Beach or at the very east end of famous Highway 30A and you have the best of both worlds - a quiet, family locale with the ability to jump in the car and take an ocean-front drive to either the vibrant activities at Pier Park's upscale shopping and dining, or the more quiet and quaint beach towns along 30A.
