  We ahd a great time on our trip on Memorial Day week-end. The condo was everything they claimed it would be. The weather was great. the only issue was the elevator service, but considering the crowd, the wait was not that bad. Besides the view from the 17th floor was worth the wait. It is a placre I would definitely consider staying at again

  The check in process was easy..although shores of panama employees were never notified about our stay...the owners said they didn't know where the reserved spot was in the parking garage...the parking garage is terribly unorganized and tight..on to the room..about 1/3 of the bulbs in the condo were burned out..the granite counter top was broken in a couple spots..the wireless Internet promised never worked no matter how many times I spoke to the owner..the floors at time of check in we're sandy and made the bottoms of our feet black after just a few barefoot steps..and the beds..Fred flintstone himeself would complain of back pain after a night on any bed in the condo...the furniture was all very sandy...and best of all the owner double book the condo...we still found a way to make our stay fun..the condo is big for what it's worth..and if you want to use an elevator at about noon..you'll be waiting for a good 20 minutes..the pool is great..the hot tubs are too small...needless to say..I'll be staying at Grand Panama next year

  Owner response: We are very sorry the Condo did not meet your expectations. As the owners of 18 condo's on the Gulf Coast Condo's it is our goal to make the stay for all our guest fun, relaxing, and enjoyable. This condo recently had new tile floors installed and is now 100% tile. Our cleaning company cleans all tile prior to each guests visit. The beds and mattress are about 4 years old. We do not recommend that adults sleep on the bunk beds or sofa sleepers. These should be reserved for children and teens.

  The guy that rented me the condo was very nice and came through on his promise to me. The beds are fine to sleep in. Every one in my group enjoyed the rest they got. the carpet does need to me changed, which the owner is planning on doing and the kitchen table needs replacing. In all, it was a nice place to stay in

  The condo was ok. Kitchen table was broken. Kitchen counter top was broken and the carpet was gross. All of the beds' mattresses were awful and need replaced. The master bed was like sleeping on a smashed pile of rags with a lump in the middle. The bunk mattresses were so bad the kids slept on the floor. Other than that, it was clean and it had a nice view.

  Nice condo, love the pool and the beach. Beds were awful!! Master bedroom, 2nd bedroom and bunk room all need new mattresses. The kids ended up sleeping on the floor.

  Owner response: All the mattresses in the unit are about 2 years old except the sofa sleeper mattress and it was replaced about 30 days ago.

  We really enjoyed our stay at the condo.. The only real problem were the elevators, and we had been aware this from other reviews. They could really use several more elevators...

  The room was a perfect size and we enjoyed the flexibility of the bunk bed alcove. The view was wonderful. The resort was great and the pool was a perfect option when we were tired of the beach. I also loved the kids activities. However, the room itself is dated. The carpets are worn and the couch was torn in the middle between the two back cushions and stuffing was coming out. The wifi was spotty. The TV in the living room did not work at all - no power to the cable box. The bedroom tv's were just basic stations when we finally found the remotes. We had also been told that we could charge lunch back to our room and that was not true.

  Owner response: We are sincerely sorry for any inconveniences caused by these issues. The owner has had the Sofa repaired, the wi-fi has been modified, and the TV replaced with 60 inch Flat Panel with expanded cable and movie channels. The bedroom TV's have been replaced with modern Flat panel TV's with expanded cable and movie channels. The facility is a cashless facility. When guest check in you are required to put your credit card information on file. All purchases made in the facility are then charged to your card on file.

  This place definitely did not hold up to our expectations. With all the good reviews, we were expecting a great place, but we were highly mistaken. The couch had a huge rip in it and the stuffing inside was coming out. One of the chairs had been broken and had obviously been attempted to be glued back together, noting the large crack in the chair leg and the gorilla glue in the pantry. The cable was not working the entire week we were there, and even after calling in a request to get it fixed, it was not taken care of until the day before we left. The wi-fi is very weak in the living area, and you must be in one of the bedrooms to get good service. The "bunk room" is not really a room, but what probably used to be a laundry room. Our people who slept there had to buy a curtain and curtain rod just to have a little privacy. The beds are some of the most uncomfortable ones I have EVER slept on, and I don't think any of us ever got a good night's rest. The second bedroom claims to have a queen bed, but it is actually a full. The elevators are VERY slow, and the first day we were there they broke down, forcing us to walk to the 17th floor. The parking lot is horrendous, and is not even wide enough for two cars around the corners, so you have to wait or back up to get around people. It literally took us 5 minutes just to get in or out of the lot. This place is definitely not worth what we paid for it, and we were highly disappointed. The only thing that drew us to this condo was the pool, which really was beautiful. PCB has a lot of great things to do, and we had a lot of fun away from the condo, but I highly recommend finding another place to stay.

  Staying at one of the most expensive resorts in town I expected to get what we paid for. This particular condo has seen better days. Upon arrival several things in the condo were broken. The condo owner sent a handy man out the next day to fix what he could. We were without tv and cabel most of our stay because someone had broken a piece off into the cabel port and it took several days to get that worked out. The sofa has a large rip in it. The carpet is old and stained. The dinning room table was not used because one of the chairs has simply been glued back together and the table itself is very wobbly. We were appreciative for what was fixed and the speed that it was fixed, but for the state of the place made me feel like we didn't get our money's worth. My husband and I stayed in the bunk room. It fit two full sized adults fine and the added bathroom is nice and spacious. Be warned if adults are staying in the bunk area there is no door. We went to the store and spent a couple of dollars and bought a tention rod and made a cutain out of a sheet we brought and made a privacey area. It wasn't ideal, but it did the trick. Also beware, the pillows are old, flat, and cheap. I'd recommend bringing your own. The old spring mattresses were not totally comfy either. The resort itself is very crowded in June. As previously stated by other reviewers, the wait for the elevators is very long. Being on the 17th floor and the assigned parking is on the 7th level of the parking deck getting in and out of the condo felt like it took at least 20 minutes each time between waiting for the elevator and trying to get out of 7 levels of tightly packed parking. The elevators themselves were in poor asthetic shape. They have obviously been in use for a while and maintained rarely. Most of the buttons do not light up, the display to let you know what floor you are on does not work properly, and as previously mentioned the wait is crazy long. The pool is pretty, but again very crowded in June. We had to get down pool side early in the morning because, despite the added lawn chairs, there are no where near enough chairs to accomodate the volume of people. We were made to wear wrist bands to access the pool. They expect you to wear them the entire time you are there because if you loose them they want $10 to replace them. We simply stretched our bands till they came off so we could go in public without looking like the wrist band club. The staff was friendly and accomodating
