We enjoyed staying in this house. The house was very clean and well maintained, and the landlord was very responsive! The house is a few minutes from the beach and the stores also.
We loved this property. Will definitely be returning.

Great stay, nice location
Easy access to all areas of Panama City Beach. Very short drive to beach, and really liked that we had everything we needed in the kitchen when we decided to cook meals. The house was clean and comfortable. I have stayed at many different places over the years, but my wife and I both agree that the bed in the Master Bedroom was the most comfortable that we had ever slept in. Thanks for a very restful vacation.

Absolutely lovely!
My husband and I enjoyed a glorious week at this rental. The owners were completely gracious and helpful. The home is immaculate and very well maintained. Very close to one of the nicest beaches I've ever seen. Can't recommend it enough.

By far the best place to stay for spring break! For a party of 8.. it was very spacious. Will rent again soon. :)
This home is not far at all from the beach and you won't have to deal with all the traffic near the resorts. It has everything you'll need for a comfy stay. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a full kitchen and a gorgeous patio to have a nice bbq! Family games, pots and pans and clean towel were all available and anything you might need that you didn't find can be found at the Walmart near by. All and all a wonderful place to stay!
Very convenient for PCB Sports Complex where we had a baseball event. The house was roomy and clean. The neighborhood was tighter than I expected (houses close together) but worked fine anyway. The canal behind the house was great with lots of turtles and small fish. We would stay again.

Reviewer Comments:
If your looking for a quite place to relax this is it. If you are looking for a place to grill and play outside games this probably isn't it.
It had a little smell from trash but i still give it a 5 star. I love it.

Nice little home
Nice little home in a small, gated community. Listing was accurate with the property well maintained and clean. Garage had available parking but also beach toys. Things I liked included the screened in sunroom, board games, TVs in the rooms, secluded location but still accessible quickly from the highway. The kitchen is a little dated and saw some bugs, but hey, its Florida and totally expected.
It was clean when we got there overall was pretty awesome just noticed there was no drainage for water so it was hard to even see if I was pulling into the driveway when there was a lot of flooding.

This property was well located in a nice and quiet community but still close to restaurants, beaches, sports complex. The view in the back yard was pretty and peaceful. The only thing that needs to be done is to fix the slow draining tub in the master bathroom. Would stay at this property again.

This home was absolutely amazing! It was just like a home away from home. The house was exactly like the pictures and everything was exactly like they told me it would be. My kids loved fishing and watching the ducks. I would definitely recommend this home for a family to stay. Everything was about 3-5 minutes away. The location was perfect.
Overall it was great. I just wish instructions would have been clarified more. We had a little trouble getting into the community because we didn’t anything about a gate code. We called customer service and they were awesome
The house is nice. Parking is a pain, streets are super narrow. We were not give pool to code, remotes in pool jar for garage and pool do not work. The pool has a 5 key code to enter. Beds not comfortable- unless you like hard beds, then you'll love them.
Overall, we had a great stay, house was clean, easy to get to. Rooms are large. Instant hot water was great!

First of all, Antonio and Tina were very pleasant on the phone as well in email exchanges! I rented the house for a group of 8 gradutaing seniors. Thye said the house was very nice and they loved the location as it was close to the beach and had many eating and shopping locations... They also said the property manager was pleasant and they felt very welcomed. Just want to say thanks to Tina and Antonio for the gift basket welcoming them to the house and for the great experience!
