View was amazing. Property was very nice. Condo needs to be cleaned better. When you would walk around barefoot bottom of feet would be super dirty. Bed needs to be replaced super uncomfortable. You could feel springs. But over all had a great time!

Thank you so much for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. We appreciate the kind review and would love to work with you again soon.
The condo was perfect for our needs. Hannah was awesome helping us with our reservation. Truly appreciated her assistance. The property was beautiful and would stay again if given the chance to travel back to this part of Florida.
Beautiful condo. Great location. The balcony was so beautiful having access to it from the bedroom and living room. We had everything we needed. New beautiful appliances. Would definitely stay there again!
Everything from start to finish was very easy. Right next door to Pineapple Willys, great location close to almost everything. Beautiful view from the balcony! No complaints really, we didn't spend much time in the condo itself but we will definitely be back!
Easy check in, property was a wreck due to remodeling and repairs but our condo was more than we could have imagined.
Loved it

Decent
Cleanliness and some minor details for repair such as door handle in bathroom, cannot use Keurig and microwave at the same time as it trips the breaker. Other than these items room was functional and great location.

Thank you so much for your review. Please know that maintenance has addressed the door handle and found no issues with the kitchen breaker. We always ask each guest to inform us of any issues during their stay (cleanliness or maintenance wise) so we can address them immediately to ensure a great vacation. Unfortunately we were not contacted.
My husband and I stay in the Compass Rose Penthouse for our Anniversary weekend gateway. Everything was prefect and well organized with providing parking passes and making sure we had a pool bands without dealing with guest services. The view from the room was absolutely beautiful for sunset/sunrise and it was true paradise with the ability of hearing the water crashing on the beach.

Happy Anniversary, we're glad it was special for you guys. See you again soon!
Only downfall was the 10:00 check out would have liked at least 11:00 to give more time to pack up and enjoy the views.
Amazing views and condo, Rooms could use a fresh coat of paint but no complaints. Will be back and recommend to others.

Thank you so much for the kind review. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay.
We’ve come to Sunbird Resorts Panama City Beach for the past 5 years, and last year, we booked Emerald Beach Properties.. We were so thoroughly impressed by the service, and most especially by the breathtaking view of the Gulf, that we booked it again this year. We weren’t let down! Same amazing service, but this year, all the construction from hurricane Michael’s wrath was completed and Sunbird shined like the jewel we knew she was!

Not enough parking too hard to have people visit and relax feels like you're in prison with guards and and wrist bands and codes. Poorly equipped kitchen furniture in bad shape.

Thank you for your review. The condo was just renovated last season and received new furniture pieces and a fully renovated kitchen, bathroom, and the condo was painted. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything a guest could need. The resort requests guests to wear wristbands to ensure you are staying at the resort. Most resorts use this as a security measure for your safety.
Hannah was excellent to work with and was quick with responses. There was a water main issue that was out of their control. The issue resulted with required AC outage. We were notified immediately and were asked if we needed fans in our condo. Within 30 mins we had 2 fans delivered. Sunbird 1205W has a beautiful view and easy access to the beach. Three beautiful pools but very cold for August. We would stay again if we ever go back to PCB.

We were so happy to have been given the opportunity to host your stay in PCB at Sunbird. We appreciate your kind review and the kudos to our employees. Thank you for being so understanding given the circumstances and we'd love to work with you again soon.
First of all, yes the apartment could use a fresh coat of paint. Yes, it's "dated" and could use some modernization. If you require an ultra modern, state of the art complex surrounded by luxury then maybe the Sunbird is not for you. However, if you want a place that is clean, quiet, has a very comfortable bed, a range that keeps food hot, a fridge that keeps the milk cold, a freezer that keeps the ice cubes frozen, a hot shower, thick towels that is right on the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops that won't break the bank then this is the place for you.

Thank you for your kind review, safe traves home!!
Was in love with the views as soon as we walked in! Balcony was perfect. Bed was clean and we slept pretty good. Found better pillows in the closet and a fan was there for us also! I felt the huge room darkening curtains were a lil much and very dated. I pushed them as far off the windows as possible to get as much view of ocean as possible and it was fine. We booked during construction and they weren't kiddung! No naps to be had but i would still do it again! I napped on the private beach, which was very well patrolled. The location was great! We did 3 boat tours and sea screamer was our favorite, minutes from condo. I do wish Sunbird allowed golf carts on property but only 1 parking space per condo so i understand... The bathroom was small but served the purpose and shower had great pressure and nice hot water. Overall we loved our stay and would come back!
