We are the Karlen’s, owners of Shore Fun 7B-3 at Horizon South. We are excited to make many memories here with our family and friends. We also love to spend time walking along the beach and watching the beautiful sunsets. We would love to share our home with you.

This is one of the largest floor plans at Horizon South. It is a two-story, townhouse- style condo so there is no one above or below you, private and quiet.

New ceilings, raised ceiling, shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, backsplash, stainless steel appliances, flooring, trim, doors, & bathroom vanities and light fixtures, windows, interior and exterior doors, all new plumbing, wiring, and cable in all bedrooms. The exterior includes patio furniture, grill, ceiling fan.

For your comfort and convenience there are memory foam mattresses on all beds, a beautiful walk in shower in the master, lots of towels, indoor blinds in all patio doors, queen sleeper sofa with upgraded mattress, and USB ports in all bedrooms and kitchen.

The main level is decorated with neutral walls, beachy accents and includes a new entryway cubby with beach hooks for your bags, beach towels to grab as you head out the door, and extra storage space for you. The laundry room is located inside, open concept living room/dining room/kitchen, half bath, enclosed patio off the living room.

It’s a 5 minute walk through the complex to the crosswalk on Front Beach Road and our boardwalk to the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and powdery white sand beach.

You can hop on the Bay Town Trolley at the front of Horizon South for a short ride to Pier Park a new shopping and entertainment hotspot just 1.5 miles away (check out their website for routes and fees).

PCB Condo
Excellent condominium. Can't explain all that we enjoyed because the experience was marvelous. I'm looking forward to staying at the same condo again. Everything was 100% as explained. Thanks for the loan of your beautiful place. Didn't have to worry about anything or anything that we needed. Just amazing.

True hospitality
We had an excellent time in PCB and this property was the main reason. Barb is a generous and responsive host and has literally thought of everything your family might need. The beach closet is unmatched and has everything you might need. The kitchen is well stocked with pretty much all the essentials. I had to reach out a few times and she was quick to respond and incredibly generous. Development was quiet with nice facilities - we enjoyed the pool almost daily and beach is a short walk. Really felt like we were at a family friend’s house who invited us to come on down, relax and help ourselves to anything. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Perfect location for relaxing vacation
Customer service is key and Barb is wonderful- communicates quickly and provides all the extras- like the coffee bar. The condo complex is a little busy but it’s summer and everyone wants to hit the beach. Once in the condo, very calm, quiet and relaxing after spreading the time on the beach. This was our 2nd year in a row at Barb’s condo.

Such a great rental!
We loved our stay in this condo in PCB. The location was great, the complex has lots of amenities, the owner is very responsive and helpful. We had an electrical issue in part of the condo on day 4 of our trip and she was quick to get someone out to resolve it. We will be happy to stay again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Barb Karlen

Host profile image
Randy and Barb, retired, are from central Ohio, where we have lived all our lives. We have always loved vacationing at Panama City Beach, enjoying the beautiful clear water, and white sandy beaches.

Why they chose this property

We love that Horizon South is on the desired west and of PCB and is a family-oriented gated community. The front of the complex is just across the street from the beach, and a five minute walk from our home. We are located in the central area of the complex where the recreation amenities are located. It’s nice to spend the day at the beach, come back and grill and chill on the patio, then jump in the pool or hot tub to end the day.

What makes this property unique

The location also makes it easy to access shopping, dining, attractions, and sports complex. We are also 15 minutes from the northwest Florida Beaches International Airport.
