Everything was good except there was someone else underwear in one of the drawers and we had to keep messing with the toilet in the spare bathroom because it wouldn’t stop running. The chain kept getting stuck under the flapper.

We had a very enjoyable stay at this beachfront condo. The unit itself is exactly as advertised—clean, spacious, bright, and very comfortable. The ocean view is fantastic.The layout was very nice: Two king bedrooms with comfortable beds, high ceilings and a very open, cheerful feel. It’s nicely appointed throughout, and the kitchen was well equipped with new appliances and even quality knives.One of our favorite features was the large balcony. It’s huge, with a dining table for six plus additional lounge chairs, and plenty of room to spread out and relax. The only real downside—more of an inconvenience than a dealbreaker—was the parking deck. It’s a bit tricky to navigate, and the assigned parking spaces don’t seem to follow any obvious order, so it took us a little while to get our bearings.That said, once you get past the parking-deck, the condo itself is wonderful. We had a great stay and would absolutely recommend it for a couple or a family looking for a spacious beachfront place.

Our spring break stay at this Panama City condo was hands-down one of the best we’ve experienced. The beach access was the easiest I’ve ever had, just steps away, which made everything so convenient. The location overall was perfect, with quick and easy access to restaurants, shops, and anything else we needed during the trip.The condo itself was extremely clean and well-kept, which immediately made us feel comfortable. The view was absolutely beautiful, perfect for relaxing mornings and peaceful evenings.What really stood out was the atmosphere. It was quiet and very family-friendly, which I appreciated, but still fun enough that my teenage daughter had an amazing time and never felt bored.Overall, this place strikes the perfect balance between relaxing and convenient. We would absolutely stay here again.

First off I must say that I never reached out to anyone because I really never took the time to do it.. so I like to do a pros versus cons … so let’s start with the pros: 1 all furniture was as described,2 had extra pillows3 at least one table next to our bed had 2 USB connections and 2 regular plug ins built into it.4 kitchen had extra ice trays that I filled nightly for our cookies the next day5 extra things I was not expecting: 2 round floats, small cooler, umbrella, wagon, chair, soccer ball and beach toys6 the washer and dryer were excellent!!!!!!!7 the beds were very comfortable and no bed bugs!!!Cons:1 master that opened to the balcony had a typical tub/shower combo but the other had a huge walk in shower and the hair dryer was on wall in second master but we did find another 2 days later2 there was only one bowl in the kitchen that had a Stay tight lid3 wooden lounge chairs had screws missing and was not usable4 there was trash and bra padding left under the bed5 the water sprayer on the kitchen sink kept sticking open6 the Cuisinart coffee pot did not work.. after 2 tries, I went to Goodwill and got one 7…. the vent was either filthy or rusty and either could be easily fixed8… I was not impressed at all with the limited channels.. could not find Fox News !!9..2 of 3 elevators were in use and the certificate expired in 8/2024.. we waited so long that we ended up climbing 16 floors of stairs

The condo is in a great location. It’s close to several restaurants and activities. We walked to Runaway Island restaurant next door. The balcony is very spacious with an awesome view. The condo itself has plenty of room and seating for a family of six. The tv in the 2nd bedroom didn’t work. Julie was so nice in getting this issue resolved. Jim, the owner personally called and had a new tv delivered. The ice maker in the fridge didn’t work. The master bedroom mattress wasn’t very comfortable. These were minor issues. We still enjoyed our stay very much!

The property was just what we needed for our stay. Balcony over looking the beach, pools, use of the beach wagon was very useful. Nice area, walking distance to restaurants, shopping, putt putt and arcade. Would definitely stay here again. The personnel we came in contact with at the condo was helpful and friendly.

We had a great trip the only hiccup was we were given the wrong color parking passes at check-in and our vehicles got notices on them. We went to the office and picked up the correct ones, so everything ended up being fine.

PERFECT CONDO!!!!!!!
My best friend and I take an annual beach trip each year and this year we decided on Panama City Beach FL. Two words on this condo and the beach, FREAKING PERFECT. The condo is situated between the two piers that are in Panama City, so this area is NOT as congested as the areas right around the piers. We were right in the middle of them both. Next door to the Fontaine Blue and Runaway Island restaurant. Again, PERFECT. We had several choices of places to eat within walking distance and loved Runaway and Sharkey's MOST. Back to the condo, clean, so SO ROOMY, great view of the beach and the sunset off the balcony was beautiful. First afternoon we saw a pod of dolphins and a family of manta ray's swimming! Balcony was amazing for morning coffee or late night chats and drinks. Both bedrooms were just right with being enough room for two people. The adjoining bathrooms were an additional perk, although one had access from the main living area, it was still private enough! There is a wagon, chairs, etc for guests to use. THAT WAGON made our trek to the beach each day extremely easy! Correspondence with the owners was seamless and prompt. AMAZINGLY EASY check-in(no contact with a check in desk-FOR THE WIN) and all in all this was by far the best condo we have ever had the pleasure of staying at. STAYING HERE just what a no stress vacation is all about. Beds were super comfy and roomy. Pillows were soft but firm. No issues with bugs, stains or smells. PICK HERE!!!!!
