Think Pink Cottages
This classic 50's duplex cottage with two one-bedroom and one two-bedroom cottages features a wonderful view of the Gulf and has been completely remodeled with whitewashed furniture and pretty white kitchens. There are orange, lemon and satsuma trees for our guests!
The property is located on the west end of Panama City Beach in a residential neighborhood away from all the hustle bustle and carnival type atmosphere. Escape to a time when life was more simple. We have a donut shop right around the corner and a grocery 3 blocks away.
Great selection of gourmet, as well as family restaurants within 5 miles

My party arrived and we were greeted by the caretaker and welcomed with a bowl of fresh fruit. The cottages are so comfortable and everything has been thought of before you get there. We had the pleasure of meeting Glenda and she gave us a great tip about getting some shrimp at the Winn Dixie-it just started us out right! We appreciate the opportunity to bring our fur babies with us and the comfort and cleanliness of the cottage was perfect-we hope to come back SOON!!! Thank you, Glenda!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

My husband and I went to stay before his deployment and were able to completely relax and enjoy our time together! A nice clean cottage where our dog was able to stay with us and enjoy the nice relaxing beach himself! All renters were kind and welcoming during our stay. We will definitely return when my husband returns from his deployment! :)Recommended for: Pet owners, romantic getaway.

Just got back from a week in cottage 3, and it was amazing. We could not have picked a better place - the cottage was extremely clean, the bed was very comfortable, plenty of appliances should you need them, and best of all: a short 200-foot walk to a clean, uncrowded beach. Glenda is the best! We are already making plans to come back next year, and we will stay here again!Recommended for: Age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway.

The cottage was so clean and everything was perfect when we arrived. In addition, the yard is beautiful and we love sitting outside after a day at the beach. The house was just perfect for my daughter and I and we enjoyed our stay tremendously!Recommended for: Pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children.

My daughter and I felt at home the minute we walked into Cottage #1. It had everything we needed! We loved being just a short walk to the beach, and I really enjoyed having my morning coffee outside while looking at the ocean! We flew in and didn't rent a car, but it was easy to get taxis where we needed to go, which weren't many places because we are such homebodies! Having the donut shop (yum!) and the grocery store within walking distance was so handy! The owner, Glenda, is really nice and easy to work with. We're glad we decided to "Think Pink!"Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, pet owners.
Owner response: I'm so glad you decided to "Think Pink" too!!! Come back to see us soon! YOU were a pleasure to have!! Glenda

My husband and our 3 dogs stayed for a week in May. This was our second time staying at "Think Pink" and it definitely will not be the last! Perfect quiet location, comfortable homey atmosphere, and great neighbors. Ms. Glenda is so friendly and I am glad we finally got to meet her in person. They have made several updates to the cottages since last year such as flat screen tv's, and beautiful landscaping. This will definitely be our place to stay in PCB! I am hoping to visit again in September or October :) Think Pink is dog friendly and just about everyone we have met in the other cottages has dogs.It's so nice to have some place dogs are welcome and all of my fur babies felt right at home. However, the property and cottages are so clean! I highly recommend "Think Pink". However I don't want it to get too popular because I don't want it to be booked where I can't stay! ;)Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you so much for your kind words! You are just the sweetest to say such nice things and I appreciate it so much! We do try hard to keep the places up and it is so nice to be appreciated!! SHHHhhhhh, we'll just keep "Think Pink" cottage OUR little secret!! :-) I'll be expecting to see you again in the fall!! Hugs, Glenda

If you are looking for a very, very authentic Florida cottage, this is it! I stayed in the cottage " courts" of the early ' 60's ( built I'm assuming in the 40's or 50's ) and they were just like this one ( except of couse Glenda has made in more comfortable!) The kitchen is better stocked for cooking than my home! It even has spices, insipiring cookbooks, grill tools and the charming backyard ( fenced in for the dogs- very convenient!) has a grill! What I love most is that it isn't " overdone" and that was refreshing! It was the best vacation of my life because I finally got that same " home feel" Id had as a child coming with my family and I'll never stay elsewhere. If you long for the " Carousel" and recall those deserted Laguna beaches they're still here! The cottage is in view of the beach and both the neighbors and area are safe and friendly. My dogs and high would give it a 10 on a 5 star scale!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children.
Owner response: Thank you so much Alison! It was a pleasure providing the cottage to you for your vacation!! I'll expect MANY return visits from you and the "kids" (your dogs). Glenda

Glenda is one of the nicest people that I have talked to. And I loved the cottage #1 that we stayed in. It was very clean. Because of work we could only stay for a few days. My husband and I were talking and hopefully we can go back for a whole week next May. It was very nice. Thanks ReginaRecommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway.

My wife and I just returned from our most recent stay at a "Think Pink" cottage. Is every day of every trip more relaxing and pleasurable than the one before it? It is if you stay here. So clean and comfortable and unpretentious. If you're like us and need a vacation to "get away," you cannot do better. You're a very short walk from the gulf in a quiet area of Laguna Beach, the best stretch on Front Beach Road. When you take a break from the beach, the cottage is a welcoming retreat. And at night you can sit out front and listen to the surf and watch the moon. Even at the height of the season there was almost no traffic to disturb the peaceful state of mind you cannot avoid. I could probably go on and on. But you're just going to have to experience this yourself. Don't miss it.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway.

About the owner: Primping and pampering THINK PINK cottages is my 'hobby' now that I am retired. We keep them in 'tip-top' condition for our family and grand children to enjoy. We'd love to add you to our list of 'extended family.'
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes:
These adorable cottages were in the process of being condemned when the former owner, John Trader, asked me to buy them and restore and love them as much as he did. I have tried to live up to his request. And, I do love and pamper them just as, I'm sure, he and his wife did.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
THINK PINK COttages are not elegant, but just so cute, cozy and comfortable. The location is perfect for 'playing outside', whether you walk the 200 ft. down the road to the beach, bicycle, jog or walk to the donut shop and Carousel Grocery Store. So much like the 'old Florida' I vacationed at as a child. While everything has been updated, the 1950's flavor has been preserved. I hope I have made John Trader proud.
