About this property
Large group paradise steps from the beach!
Summary:
Imagine pulling up to a quiet Emerald Coast street, the sugar-white sand just steps away, and opening the door to a stunning coastal retreat for up to 20 guests. Your personal concierge has everything prepared and is available 24/7. Head to the beach in seconds or unwind in the pool and hot tub. Challenge friends to life-size games, ping pong, or two game tables. Recharge in the sauna, gather in two living spaces, and enjoy seamless outdoor entertaining — welcome to your Emerald Coast escape!
Guest Access:
Guests have full private access to the home, both indoors and outdoors. Check-in is seamless via keypad, with detailed arrival instructions provided ahead of your stay. The keypad access code will be sent 48 hours prior to arrival. Free on-site parking is available, with space for up to 6 vehicles.
The Neighborhood:
Located on Surf Drive in Panama City Beach, this home sits in one of the most coveted residential pockets along the Gulf Coast — a quiet, low-traffic street just steps from the sugar-white sand. The area has a noticeably calmer feel than the main PCB strip, with a relaxed neighborhood rhythm that makes it feel like a true escape. Beach access is practically at your doorstep, with open shoreline and emerald-green water within seconds of stepping outside. Yet everything PCB has to offer — dining, entertainment, and activities — remains just a short drive away. The best of both worlds on one of Florida's most beautiful coastlines.
