Our family totally enjoyed our stay. So nice to have a bathroom for each bedroom and very clean. Very quiet neighborhood and just a short walk to the beach. Totally enjoyed our stay.
Overall we had a great stay. lovely gated community with close access to the beach and beach was not overcrowded. lovely house with lots of open space for our group. owner Sue was great at communicating back when we had questions! would stay here again!
We loved our visit to 30A! This house was the perfect lay out for our family. The home is well stocked & the owners have gone above & beyond to make sure it’s a fun place to hang out as well. We will be back!
We had a wonderful stay at PORT 30A. Home was clean, well appointed, and a terrific layout for our 2 family trip. Beach was a VERY short walk through the gated community, and the pool (which we heated) was such so nice to have on site. Sue was a tremendous host and great communicator. Look forward to staying here again soon!
We had such a blast at this house! It is so close to the beach and plenty of enough space for our family of 14. Super convenient having your own private pool as well! Sue was super helpful and quick to answer any questions we had! Would love to stay here again
Awesome, beautiful, comfortable place. Family of 20. Lots of room. House is fully stock with all your essentials needed. Beach was breath taking. Will book again.
Loved this property. Owner very easy to communicate with and addressed any concerns. The house is beautifully decorated but cozy. Plenty of space for multiple families. Great private pool . the private beach was not crowed even at spring break . Will be back for sure !
The home was perfect for a large group - we had 14. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep and spread out. The gated neighborhood was a plus and Private beach access was awesome. The Pool and Ping Pong table were also big hits!
Sue was easy to work with and very responsive. I Would definitely recommend this property to anyone with a large group.
Lovely home in a quiet gated community!!! Located between Rosemary and Seaside. Great pool with comfy shaded patio seating. Close walk to a private beach with generous amount of beach chairs and umbrellas for your enjoyment. 4 VERY comfortable bikes to ride a short distance to Watersound or Rosemary. This beautiful home has a great open floor plan with plenty of space for family gatherings! Would definitely LOVE to stay at this amazing home again!!!

So glad you and your group enjoyed our place. You were a great guest and really appreciate how well you took care of our home! Look forward to you staying with us again!
We booked with the host Sue and we wouldn’t be any more surprised that the place is so spacious, there is a lot to do in Panama City and very little time since we only have the weekend with our friends and family, from the swimming pool to the private beach and really nice backyard to enjoy socializing with our families and friends will book again in the near future. To the next guest you won’t be disappointed.
Thank You,
Sue
We were a group of 4 families with kids and this was a perfect location with everything we needed. It was nice that each couple had their own suite and then the older boys stayed in the bunk room including our toddler in the pack n play. The house came with all the beach supplies we needed so we walked over to the gorgeous beach each morning, came back for lunch and naps and then back for the afternoon. Our kids loved the kids cave and pool. The kitchen and extra fridge were the perfect size for our large group too. The only thing missing was kid friendly dishes, but we made do. Sue was easy to contact and check in and out was a breeze. We walked up to the Big Chill a few times for dinner and activities, took walks and runs along 30a almost daily.

So glad that your group was able to enjoy our home!! We love the suggestion for kid friendly plates and will add them!!! Come visit us again!
If you're over the hustle and bustle of the beach crowds (Destin, Seaside) this is the place for you. The house is still located close to all the popular attractions and cities, however it's tucked into the most private of neighborhoods and is gated. All of the surrounding houses are big and beautiful including this house. Every bedroom feels like the master suite no matter where you land. The oversized kitchen is a dream with a commercial sized fridge (including an extra fridge in the laundry room). Our family loved the garage game room and pool. The beach is a 5 minute walk and is VERY private and not crowded which is most important to us. The owner is very prompt and helpful. This is now our favorite home and we visit often! Do not hesitate to book this beautiful large and CLEAN home.
Our family was looking for a place to unwind while remaining socially distanced during these uncertain times. The location and amenities provided at this location exceeded our expectations. The home was beautiful and the location was perfect! My husband is in real estate and stated that is was the best use of space that he had seen in a while. There was no bad room in the house with space for everyone. The private bathroom in each room was great! The access to the private beach allowed us to enjoy the weather without overcrowding. The children also enjoyed the private pool. Some took a short mile bike ride to The Hub for lunch and shopping. One evening we took the five mile drive to Seaside and had a wonderful outside dinner. This property was perfect for us and is now on our list of return properties. The owner was responsive and very accommodating. Fantastic memories we made by all!

So glad that you and your family were able to enjoy our home and some quality time together! We would love for you to come back in the future!
Every single thing about our stay here was wonderful - from easy access to lovely private beach to the perfect pool & lounging area around it. The house is so well furnished & set up, but just the one complaint is that of all the bathrooms, only one was fully functioning. Every other shower had issues from leaks to water that wouldn’t get hot. That’s not an owner’s issue with the rental, but a building issue, but it does need to be addressed for the long term functionality of this home & its usability for big groups. Thankfully we were comfortable sharing our bathroom since we ended up with the one that worked well! That’s the ONLY reason I knock it from five stars to four. Otherwise, we truly had no complaints!

Hello Emily- we were do happy to host you at out home and we are glad that you enjoyed your stay. We so appreciate your patience while we worked through those plumbing issues and are happy that they have been resolved!! We look forward to you coming to our house again in the future.
Sue was a very helpful and responsive host. The house was a short walk to the beach and the beach was not super crowded. The house was perfect for our group of 16. The owners had plenty of umbrellas, chairs, and beach toys to use. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking at home. If I had to give some constructive feedback, I would label the kitchen drawers because it’s a bit unorganized. We could have used more wash cloths-one per person. Some of the beach gear needs to be pitched. The first day we hauled things with us that were broken. But we just went through everything the next day to make sure we had functioning chairs. There were so many chairs and umbrellas, we still had plenty to use. Every problem was pretty minor and we would definitely rent again!

Hi Kyle, thank you so much for your feedback. We will definitely replenish our linen supply and didn’t realize it had run low! We also appreciate that you took the time to discard any well-loved beach supplies. We would love to have your group come back again and we will work on organizing our cabinets!

1st time to stay in a VRBO with our family. (8 adults/7 kids).
Great location. House was very nice, comfortable, big enough for all of us. The pool was a nice feature. We would love to stay here again.
The property was perfect for our stay. We had family members from all age groups. Every one enjoyed their stay. The house was comfortable. It was an easy walk to the beach. There were plenty of bicycles, beach chairs, and coolers! The house and yard were beautiful!!
We found the perfect house for our family vacation! There was plenty of space in the living room and dining room to allow our entire group of 9 to eat dinner together or watch a movie comfortably, without sitting on top of each other. The private beach was nice and quiet, and only a couple of blocks away - so even if we were at the house we could pop over to watch the sunset. Our kids loved the pool, and riding bikes around the neighborhood. We all loved the location, and walked/rode bikes to the Hub a few times, and also to Rosemary Beach. Sue was so helpful, and flexible as we were planning our trip. We have been going to Seaside for the past few years, but we all agreed that we liked this location better. This will definitely be our new destination!
Our Family had a fantastic time at this home! The house was beautiful and well furnished, along with, a great location.
We definitely would recommend this house for a great time.

About the host
Hosted by Sue Portanova
We think this is the best location for two reasons - its close proximity to everything 30A has to offer coupled with the private nature of our small community with exceptionally large lots. It is easy to park, go to the beach and enjoy the grassy yard. We are close to major attractions like Alys Beach, Rosemary, the Big Chill (formerly the Hub), Panama City Beach and the AIRPORT. Easy access to bike path, private heated pool, private beach access without crossing 30A- to perfect white sandy beaches and spectacular gulf views!! A "no hassles" vacation with plenty of space to unwind, a fully stocked house along with plenty of private parking make this the perfect place to come with a large or small group! The house is great for multi-generations of families and friends.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property because it is a piece of paradise - close to the action of Rosemary, Alys, Seaside and Seacrest beaches - while in a gated community - free of the crowds and traffic.
The quiet gated community of Pelican Circle is centrally located 1 mile west of Alys Beach and 1 mile east of the Big Chill (HUB). Camp Creek Lake is adjacent to Pelican Circle - offering amazing sunsets. Enjoy the private, heated, tropical pool, large spacious kitchen and luxurious finishes. We love owning this and VRBO 501264 - Sea the View which are right near each other.
