The Perfect Getaway!

We absolutely LOVED our stay in PCB! The condo was perfect, amazing ocean views, and the perfect room for our little one. The espresso machine was the extra touch that mama needed on this vacation. This property is like its own resort right on the beach. Perfect for families! 10/10 will stay here again on our next trip to Florida :)

Absolutely the best view ever!! Our kids are 15 & 20. They loved it. The Murphy bed was a bonus! Nonstop views and ocean air. The property has long waits for the elevator, but we are patient people. The elevator is the only downside, but the condo was perfect! Definitely recommend. Will visit again!

Panama Beach Stay Experience

The stay was overall positive. The only thing is the elevators take forever to get on and off of especially if you stay at the top floors of the building. It’s just extremely busy , so many people staying there. I will say, this is not your typical family oriented hang out, there is a lot of younger people that hang out over here in Panama period! I think Destin and Fort Walton are your more family friendly destinations. We had a great time of course , would recommend for older kiddos not the littles, just my opinion. Thanks!

Clean with a view!

The location and view was amazing. Communication was top tier with the property manager. Parking was a little tricky at first but got the hang of it once you know where your spot is and the layout. Issues with the building (NOTHING to do with the VRBO property owner): Wish they had more elevators. To have as many condos as SOP does and only 4 elevators is a bit of a pain during high traffic times. I'm not sure what the policies are for the property regarding marijuana, but every time we walking around the property there were areas that smelled like it. Back to the condo... It was super clean and the beds were comfy. We would most likely stay there again regardless of the property issues listed. If you head to Pineapple Willy's (highly recommend), ask for Murray!

Nice condo wonderful views, horrible resort staff

Condo was clean and beautiful. Wonderful views. Condo is fully equipped with everything you need for a wonderful stay. I do need to say the resort staff were rude and lazy. I went to get resort packet and was grreted by a very rude, rude did i say rude employee at the desk. She refused to help me bc i did not rent from them. We were given bracelets to wear that sported a $100fine if we lost but yet they did not work. I asked for new ones and was told "there was plenty of security and i could ask one of them to open a gate if needed". So not able to go on beach after "security" was not at beach gate. We had to wait every time we left and get out of the van and go ask someone to come open the gate (they were not happy about and very rude).

Great condo, family friendly

Condo was as advertised and very clean and inviting. We very much enjoyed our stay! The only negative was the elevator situation was a mess, as there was always one not working. That required a bit of patience but obviously out of the condo owners control and for sure did not take away from the great time we had. Would definitely stay again!

Family Vacation

The condo was clean but really old and had uncomfortable furniture and beds. We also had to go to the sore immediately because there was absolutely nothing in the unit. There was a half of roll of TP in each bathroom, no trash bags, one dishwasher tablet......The building overall was terrible. It is a 23 story building and not enough elevators or amenities to accommodate that many people. The unit we stayed in was on the 22nd floor . It took an average of 15-20 minutes to ride the elevator. Sometimes the line for an elevator was 20 people deep and of course it stopped on every floor. The pictures of the pool look fantastic. We were never able to get a chair or spot by the pool because there were all taken by 9:00 am. It also cost $45 a day to rent an umbrella.

Good morning Laurel - I'm so sad to hear you didn't enjoy your beach visits. This unit has some of the most amazing ocean views in the building and looks exactly as advertised. I will definitely let the owners know that you were unhappy with their furnishings. We are always looking for good feedback to better our properties. The master bed is newer, but I will have that checked immediately! My cleaners are supposed to leave one roll of toilet paper in each bathroom, to kindly get you started, along with one roll of paper towel, one dishwasher and laundry tablet, dish and hand soap and a garbage bag. This gives you time to get to the store if you did not bring anything along. This was clearly mentioned in your rental agreement. This is a common practice within condo rentals verses hotel rooms. I am very approachable and would have helped you if you were missing something. Customer service to my guests has always been my #1 priority which you can see from my reviews. The beach chair rentals have always been between $40-$45 for a double lounger with cushions and an umbrella. This is a beach company separate from us. Some guests bring their own loungers to save money. Although there are 6 elevators in the building, they are unfortunately much slower this time of year due to the amount of people visiting the beach during the spring and summer months. Many of the resorts in the area have this issue. I sure wish we had a solution for this. I do have several beautiful, lower units to offer if you would wish to return. My sincere apologies for the pool chair situation. There are rules in place to prevent this from happening. I will definitely bring this up to the COA. Thank you again for your feedback. I truly wish I would have heard from you during your visit. I could have possibly resolved some of the issue you were having. Thank you for visiting! Nicholle Ricco – Property Manager

20 year anniversary

We had a great time at Shores of Panama. The only problem was the elevators which seemed to be the main problem with every guest & being on the 22nd floor we couldn't just take the stairs. But the weather was perfect. The decor was a little dated in the condo but we weren't in it much so it didn't matter too much to us.

About the host

Hosted by Nicholle Ricco

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

The Shores of Panama is simply the best location if you wish to be 'on the beach' in Panama City Beach! The new Northwest Florida International Airport (ECP) is just 15 minutes away. The beach is extra wide/deep in front of the Shores of Panama and there is an unlimited amount of recreational activities and restaurant in the immediate surrounding area.

What makes this property unique

The most unique benefit of staying at the Shores of Panama compared to any other condo building near the beach is that it offers 'resort like' amenities and is located directly on the beach. Besides having one of the largest outdoor pools in the area, there is also entertainment on the pool side stage, movies for kids on the beach, and a full service spa on site. The Shores has parking attached to the building (no skywalks). World famous Pineapple Willy's / Pier Bar are right next door offering live music and a sports lounge.
