Beautiful condo with wonderful Floorplan. We had a wonderful stay and look forward to returning soon.
Wanda's condo is very comfortable for us. The bedrooms are nice size, and the living room and outside deck are spacious. We love PCB and enjoyed our time here.
This property was perfect for our family. Only 4 floors up so you get the beautiful sunset views across 2 master bedrooms and living room and easy access to elevator to get to pool and beach. Highly recommend and we will definitely be renting again. ❤️
Communication with Wanda was excellent. The coffee pot broke on day 2 of our stay and she had a replacement that day for us. The condo and area is very family friendly which is exactly what we were looking for.
This is the second time we have rented at Watercrest. We had a fabulous time. The 4th floor was perfect for the pool and ocean view. We watched dolphins every morning and the sunsets were beautiful. The space and amenities were just what we expected and we can't wait to come back.
Loved!! We enjoyed staying in this spacious condo & will definitely rent from Wanda again in the future. She was very helpful & quickly responsive to texts!!!!! Condo was clean & had everything we needed.

Watercrest
couldn't have asked for anything better! very family oriented and clean. the week of reserved beach chairs was a over-the-top bonus!!
This unit is spacious, with large living room, good size bedrooms, and large outdoor balcony. Being on 4th floor feels close to pool and beach, while high enough for for wonderful views of the surf and sunsets.
This condo was so perfect for our large crew, very roomy and the best view! I don’t think I’ve ever stayed on the fourth floor and in my opinion it was the best height to see all the beautiful views and not feel like you were too high up! Beds were super comfy and plenty of furniture for everyone to spread out in the evenings! Communication was effortless with the owners and they provided everything we needed and more especially in the kitchen! We will definitely be back!
Great place to stay! Owner was very responsive. The condo wasent all the way cleaned, the dryer stopped working as it’s an older model, the main door going outside would not lock (the lock had to be replaced). I feel condos need to be checked after each stay to prevent these issues. After having these issues and me having to go buy things to go on the doors so my 2 year old grandbaby couldn’t get out to the balcony. I was not refunded anything for the inconveniences that I had. On the positive it fit 9 people perfectly fine.

Sorry you weren’t fully satisfied! We had the sliding door lock fixed within minutes of you telling us. The dryer problem was NOT due to the age of the dryer, the belt came off due to it being overloaded. The stack units required in these condos are designed for smaller loads unfortunately. But again, the dryer repair was scheduled immediately. Unfortunately guests often don’t tell us about an issue until after they leave on Saturday, and it’s almost impossible to get weekend service. As you can imagine, having large groups in a condo puts a lot of wear and tear on a unit. We do our best!

Outstanding!
My experience here was absolutely wonderful! The beach area is extremely clean and convenient, and the complex has several fun amenities, such as the communal pool, hot tub, and tennis court. With these, the beachfront, and all the nearby PCB activities in town, this condominium is perfectly located. The condo is quite clean, has nice bathrooms, and features a beautiful view, especially for sunsets. Carefully decorated, the condo radiates a constant euphoric and soothing calmness.

Thanks for your review. I’m happy that you had a great vacation. I agree that The Watercrest is a great complex and I work diligently to make sure that our condo is well maintained. I’ve had several people tell them that they really like the color scheme and the décor but it’s always nice to hear it again.
The people who run the beach chair rental service keep the beaches in great shape. Not only do they make sure the beach is free of trash and debris, they actually use a tractor to rake the sand to be sure they didn’t miss anything. I’ll be sure to pass kind words to them. I’m sure they’ll appreciate them. It takes a lot of work to keep the beaches that well maintained.
I hope you’ll think of us when you plan to return to Panama City Beach.
This is our second stay at the Watercrest, first stay in this rental. We love this location due to its proximity to St. Andrew’s state park, and the amenities at the rental (pool, tennis, beach front, easy beach chair rentals etc.). This rental was great for our family. From the 4th floor we had a great view of the pool and the ocean. The owners were good at communicating and the rental worked really well for our family. I would recommend staying at this rental and I would definitely rent this place again.
If you come to PCB, I highly recommend doing a sunset dolphin cruise through St. Andrew’s State park 10/10!
This condo checked all the boxes we had for what we wanted. It was spacious, clean and well stocked with all our cooking needs and then some. Several extras like boxed games. Stuff for the beach. Wanda was also great. She always responded very quickly and was very friendly. Will definitely put this place on my list of favorites.
Location was great - we were far enough from the heavy traffic to get to the grocery store quickly but only a 25-30 min drive (with traffic) away from Pier Park. We had 5 adults, 2 teens, and a toddler and had plenty of space. Wanda was a pleasure to work with - she was easy to reach and very responsive. The condo itself was close to 2 sets of elevators and being on the 4th floor, taking the stairs wasn't bad. Parking was super easy.

About the host
Hosted by Wanda Rehberg
The owners are both CPA's with an eye for detail. We have recently purchased this condo so our calendar shows a lot of availability! We chose Watercrest because we love their huge floor plans. This 3BR/3BA unit has a whopping 1440 square feet. We love the large balcony and tennis court. We dislike the parking garages and the hassels of crosswalks of Front Beach Road. You will not hear road noise from your room! Our desire is to rent condo that exceeds our renter's every expectations. We want you and your family to have the perfect vacation. Since we live fairly close to PCB, we spend time there ourselves so we find all of those little things like burned out bulbs or squeaky hinges that need attention. This condo is treated as our second home and it shows.
Why they chose this property
Watercrest offers the largest floorplans in PCB. Our unit is 1440 square feet! There are ample parking spaces right in front just steps away from one of the elevators. There are NO GARAGES OR WALKOVERS! You won't have to park in a loading/unloading zone. You'll park steps away from the elevators. Watercrest units wrap around a large atrium. The way the building is laid out, the units are set back from the elevators and halls so you won't hear a lot of noise from people coming and going. There are plenty of elevators. There are four elevators and only 10 units per floor! Having such little foot traffic means it quiet which is especially nice if you want to sleep in! Using Back Beach Road, you can get to Pier Park in minutes, without all of the traffic headaches. It's simply the best!
What makes this property unique
WATERCREST IS A BEACH FRONT PROPERTY! THE COMPLEX SITS RIGHT ON THE GULF! Watercrest floorplans, amenities, it's location on the quiet end of the beach make it the ideal condo for your rental. The parking is easy and hassle free. They have tennis, raquetball and shuffle board courts. If you like to sit near the pool but don't want too much sun, there is a nice covered area with tables and chairs. You can sit in the cool shade and relax and keep an eye on your family. There are men's and women's fitness rooms which have saunas. There is a hot tub outside. The pool is heated in the winter and there is also a kiddy pool. The 3 BR units have two gulf front master bedrooms that open to the balcony. One Master has a King, the second has a Queen. There is also a sleeper-sofa. The 3rd Bedroom has one Queen and One Twin. We also have a roll away bed. All three bedrooms plus the den have flat screen televisons and cable. The den has a new DVD player. All three bedrooms have their own private bath! No more waiting on a free bathroom! The kitchen has both bar stools and a table with six chairs. There are plenty of seating places on the large balcony. The balcony has a direct, unobstructed view of the beach. Watercrest has only 10 units on each floor. You will be able to find chairs by the pool or on the sunning deck. There is a beach chair rental company right in front of the building. Chairs are available to rent for a fee.
