We only stayed a night and wished we could have stayed longer. The king bed was sooo comfortable. Great location and Steve, the host, was very helpful.
In town for a basketball tournament and decided to enjoy the beach. The view was beautiful. I would definitely stay there again.

Perfect place to stay!
Exactly as the property listed. Very clean and great location! Will definitely be staying here again. Steve was great to rent from and made sure we had everything we needed before arriving!
The condo was clean, comfortable and centrally located to restaurants and entertainment. My kids loved the pools and I loved the ocean view and being right on the beach. Steve was easy to work with, a wonderful host!
We had such a good time! I strongly recommend this property and will seek it out the next time I am in Panama City Beach. The view is amazing and the property is very conveniently located. Two thumbs up!
We had a wonderful time here. Steve was great to work with and had excellent communication. The condo had everything we needed. It was so relaxing sitting on the balcony enjoying the view of the beach. The kids loved the bunk bed. I would definitely recommend this rental to others! Thank you Steve!
Loved this rental! Condo is on the quiet side of the building, away from the crowd. Easy access to the beach, which is stunning. We watched dolphins and rays from the balcony every morning. Condo is stocked with everything you need and more. The bed was very comfortable, we will definitely be back! Thanks Steve for letting stay in your beautiful condo!
Our Family visited to spend time with Our Son, who is a Soldier in the Army, before he moved 20 hours away from Home. The home was beautifully decorated and was extremely clean. Steve was very communicative and on top of everything! Most definitely a great Host!
When Steve said he wants to make sure you are totally happy with everything and is available for whatever reason, he really means it! Best experience we've had and the rental was perfect. Definitely five stars. Everything is there you will need, even for beach. Thanks Steve!
The condo was nice, loved the kitchen and it was very clean! The only complaint was the resort elevators stayed tore up. Had to walk the stairs alot. Other than that the condo and Steve was great!

I'm so glad you enjoyed your time at the beach! Thank you so much and I hope to see you again soon!
Great location but very disappointed with the cleanliness
The property itself is in a great location. The beach is absolutely beautiful and the resort is very nice. However, I was very disappointed in the cleanliness of the property. There was trash behind the tv stand, some of the dishes in the cabinets were dirty, the microwave had food spilled in it, there was fingernail clippings in the sinks, and broken glass on the balcony. I don’t expect to go on vacation to clean and that is what I had to do.

Response from VrboOwner on 5 Mar 2020
I was not notified of any cleanliness issues or provided the opportunity to re-send a crew out to address in advance. These guests asked for early check-in and I asked the crews if this was possible. She hurried the cleaning crew so it's possible she got a hurried cleaning job.
That said, a wrapper behind a TV stand doesn't really equate to an unclean unit. That's a harsh judgement on this guests part. The microwave may have missed a wipe down, but really, is that little splash of tomato sauce really worth calling a unit unclean? She never submitted pictures of these unclean dishes either. I believe they were overly critical based on their list of complaints below. I have many reviews and very few if any are critical on cleanliness. She didn't complain about anything that really would reflect a dirty unit. The floors were clean, linnens were fresh, towels were all there and clean, clean bathroom, fresh condo, well appointed. She complained of none of those things.
If it was truly dirty, she would have actually let me know so that I could address it and send a crew out to make it perfect. My goal is to have a beautiful unit well kept and clean. Cleaning crews will miss things, like a wrapper or a wipe down occasionally, but if that happens, let me fix it before you complain that your vacation was ruined. This was an overly critical review and I stand by the quality of my cleaning crews and my property manager to make any situation right.
Easy check in/out process. Parked and walked right to our room. Didn't have to stand in a line to check in/out! All resort amenities available for the guests. The Sky Bar sits over Front Beach Road and offers fun events each night. (Music Bingo, Trivia, Karaoke, Live Music, etc.) Great location! Pier Park is right down the street. The owner, Steve, responds to messages quickly. Excellent communication! Room was clean, well-stocked, and wonderfully decorated. Room rates and the additional fees/taxes are very reasonable, which is a huge plus in this economy! Highly recommend booking this unit! You won't regret it! Thanks so much, Steve! :)
We had problems with the water heater going out. The owner was good about getting it fixed promptly, however it is a very small unit. There were 4 of us staying in the unit and we ran out of hot water have way through the second shower. The unit is dated. The view from the balcony was great. Overall, the price was very reasonable for a one bedroom condominium on the beach.
My husband and I stayed for a week. The location is great, close to everything we needed. Parking is easy and feels safe. We took advantage of the beach every day and watched the sunset from the balcony every night. The unit is adjacent to the elevator but we heard absolutely no noise. There was also no noise from units to the side, above or below. The building and facilities have plenty of places to sit near the shop, Starbucks, ice cream/pizza place, lounge, and pool if you need to get out of the sun for a while. The in unit washer dryer was nice to have. The kitchen has everything you would need to cook a meal. Steve was super prompt to respond to questions. We'd definitely stay here again.
We stayed just before spring break started and got a great deal on this condo. The view was great and we had good weather so we were at the beach a lot. Great restaurants nearby. The resort is big so we did walk a lot. Comfy bed.
This condo was absolutely perfect for our family of 4. My 3 year old had plenty of space to run around & play. It had everything we needed & it was clean. The views were to die for. We truly had a great time. And the Host stayed in contact with us and was helpful with anything we messaged about. You seriously couldn't ask for anything better! 10/10 will recommend to everyone!!
The condo was wonderful, beautiful view! Steve was great, quick to answer any questions or concerns you have! The resort does have A LOT of elevators, once you learn what ones to use, the rest is a cake walk 😁
The pools on the site are so nice, staff is wonderful, activities daily for the kiddos!!!!!!!
If you are thinking about booking.... JUST DO IT!!!
We had a great trip to PCB! The location of the room was perfect! Close to the elevators and right by the beach access ramp. The room itself was nice and clean. Bathroom could use an update but it was still nice! The only thing we wished differently was to have 2 bathrooms instead of 1 🤪. The resort is really nice, we loved the Sky Bar and snack bar. We also liked that the resort doesn't put up a ton of rental chairs so there was plenty of room for tent set up. Steve was easy to communicate with and quick to respond, and checked on us frequently. We will definitely be back!
Our room was great. Very clean and updated, but the resort is painfully laid out. Stairs, stairs and then some more stairs!! 3-4 of the 8 elevators were down during our stay. Luckily this unit is on the 5th floor and the sky bridge lands on the 3rd, but some in our group were on way higher floors. Parking isn’t adequate to accommodate the volume of guests that are there during peak season. Again, all these issues have zero to do with the host of our property. They were great and in contact with us the whole trip.
Hello! We have been Panama City Beach property owners for a few years and we love it here and visit as often as we can! There is no place quite like it in the US. We like it so much that we decided to buy a condo and share with others the amazing beach atmosphere that's right here in Florida.
We wanted our first beachfront rental to be in a nice resort and close to many activities. Inside you will find all the amenities of home. Outside your door you will experience all the comforts of a 4 star resort and amazing location central to the heart of PCB.
My personal goal is to provide our guests and their families with a fantastic vacation experience that will be remembered for years to come.
Thank you and I hope I can host your next memorable vacation!
