Property is clean, conveniently located, and sits on a small resort style property with several activities offered on site. Staff were very friendly and provided excellent communication. Would definitely stay again.

thank you Bert you review is very much appreciated. Stay safe and know you are always welcome at any of our Hideaway homes, Chuck
This place was perfect for our stay. We were down for Jeep Jam and needed a place with a carport to keep the jeep under in case of bad weather and this fit the bill. Chuck was a great host and very easy to communicate with. He made our stay very easy. Check in was a breeze.
Thanks again. Chuck! We will be back again soon.

We consider it a privilege to host our VRBO guests, thank you. We look forward to your return. Safe travels and come back soon. Thank you, Chuck
our family arrived early afternoon to the property. The pictures on the website does not give this cozy little home enough justice. Very clean , also very Close to other shopping centers if need be. I loved the back screen porch. It reminded me of my childhood growing up in Orlando. If we make another trip to this side of Florida, we will definitely stay at this place again.

Thank you for your kind review. We look forward to you and yours return. We also have 6 other homes available should you want to be on waterfront or different size of home. Safe travels, Chuck
Looks like we got a 4-star :(, folks it's always helpful if you tell us why you gave us a less than 5-star review so, if possible, we can correct what left you less than completely satisfied. Either way we appreciate the opportunity to host your visit, Chris. Thank you, Chuck
About the host
Hosted by Chuck
Hello, I am a property owner and long time builder. I came to Florida several years ago on a major condo project and simply never left. I enjoy the wildlife and nature this area has to offer; starting with the dolphins we often see daily from our homes. We are lightly populated residential area with all the activities close at hand, including great restaurants, parks, sugar sand beaches, shopping and so much more. You'll enjoy being outdoors; boating, paddle boarding & kayaks. I get a kick out of meeting the wonderful guests that come to experience "The Hideaway". The 6 rental units on the waterfront property keep you with plenty of options as well as other units off site. Vacation and business traveler's from literally around the world find their peace here at "The Hideaway" Panama City, Florida.
