This was our second stay in this condo. Needless to say, we find the accommodations to be top notch. The location is close enough to the action without getting too close to the undesirable elements. The condo is gated and very well kept. We have stayed throughout Florida in vacation rentals and this one you won't be disappointed with. The owner is very nice and easy to deal with. He is trustworthy and I have no second thoughts giving a strong recommendation.

Owner response:Barry, we thank you for choosing to stay with us again !!

WOW, what a treat.... the view from the condo, took our breath away. We loved waking to the sound of the waves hitting the white sand. The condo, has everything and more that you need for a great vacation in paradise. The pictures can't do the property justice you have to experience this property! Perfect vacation location! If you want the crowds and party, it is just a few blocks away, but if you want quite rest and relaxation, it is right here. The local people were so friendly and always willing to point us in the right direction and answer questions. Liza's across the street was a delight, great food and staff. Montego Bay, was about two miles down turning right on Thomas Dr and it too had great food and staff. Waffle House close by is also good food and staff. There on the property in building E (we are in A) there is SudWeezer's, great pina coloda's and food, the owners were wonderful!!! So you can cook in the condo or go out to eat and it is just a few steps away. Taking the trolley to Pier Park, was a great adventure, great restaurants, shopping, theaters, or fishing from the pier. We loved catching the trolley right outside the condo property and exploring Panama City Beach, or walk in that glorious white sand. We could walk to restaurants or catch the trolley to go further. We did not want to leave and look froward to returning. We HIGHLY recomend this vacation rental and the owners were so helpful!!!! Thank you Ira and Minh for a great restful and refreshing vacation!

We stayed at Ira's condo in Panama City Beach last summer and again this summer (Aug 2011). It is as close to the beach as you can get! Love sitting on the balcony watching the sunsets!! Breathtaking!!! We would definitely recommend staying at this one! Very nice people to work with....

Ira, thank you for allowing us to stay in your condo for our vacation. It was a true delight! The condo was very clean and spacious. The photos just do not do this condo justice. I loved how the beach was just a few feet away. I have small children and they had lots of beach toys, so having the beach right out of the door was a blessing. There were two pools right outside the condo as well. The exercise facility was just a short walk away. There was plenty of activities outside the complex as well. Just a couple of miles up the road is a marina where you can charter a fishing boat trip. My husband would recommend doing that. Also, there is a restaurant called The Boatyard. You really must go there. The food is spectacular! Working with Ira was great. We had lots of questions and he assisted us every time without hesitation. I would recommend this condo to anyone. It was fabulous! Thanks again Ira!

Owner response:We thank you stephanie for your kind words.

We planned a very last minute vacation with our son and his family, called Ira and the rest was so easy. He and his wife gave us so many helpful tips and the entire trip went better then expected. We tried out his bbq tips and also visited Captain Jacks(well worth the price). The view from our condo was more then Ira promised, we watched dolphins daily from our condo balcony. The condo was so well equiped, we trusted everything he said he had and he did. So we only added groceries to the condo and our clothes and the rest they took care of. We look forward to going back, the view, the private beach, the pool, and the great condo just can't be beat. Thanks Again Ira to you and your wife for sharing your home away from home with our family and we definelty look forward to visiting it again in 2012 if not sooner...... the Rions

This was our 2nd time staying here, and coming back for a 3rd time in Sept. We have also stayed in Ira's So. Padre Island home. One day hope to make it to his Anna Marie Island Place.... The condo has all that you need to have a great time, from the keyless entry (which is great) to the beautiful views from the balcony and the master bedroom. The elevator is right outside your door, along with a handy trash disposal...Take the elevator down & out the door to the beach, pools and barbecue area. Our family has made some beautiful memories here and in So. Padre....can't wait until Sept..

We stayed in Ira's condo at the end of June. He was able to book us on very short notice and we were not disappointed. The view from the 5th floor of the Gulf was breathtaking. Everything we needed was provided. The best part was the keypad entry on the front door - I never had to keep up with a key. Thank you Ira for a lovely vacation and I plan on booking with him for many vacations to come

We really enjoyed our week at the condo. I especially liked the well stocked kitchen as I do not like eating out all the time on vacation. The location, view and weather was terrific. Anonymous, Marcellus, NY

We had a WONDERFUL time at the condo!!! The beach was just out the doors, and we were very close to 2 of the pools in the resort also. The views of the Gulf were amazing!! The sunsets were absolutely beautiful!! I would have liked to stay longer!! It was very nice to have the washer and dryer in the unit also. It was a nice home away from home!! The condo was tatefully decorated, well kept, and nice and clean. We would definitely recommend it!! We enjoyed the Mellow Mushroom pizza place (fun atmosphere & great pizza and subs), the buffet at Captain Joe's was very good and VERY inexpensive, we also enjoyed the Captain's Table on Beck (they catch their own seafood !!) Overall we were very happy with our vacation!! We were a little apprehensive about doing this "online" rental, but we were very happy with Ira and his professionalism!!

Owner response:We thank Laura for the nice comments and appreciate your business

We stayed at Ira's Panama City Condo the third week of October. We have seven children and left them all at home. It was the best vacation either of us had ever had. The condo was perfect. The weather was great and there were very few people at that time of year. We had such a great time we want to go back. Now if possible!!! Thanks Ira.

We enjoyed our stay in Panama City! The view from the condo was beautiful! The pools were great and walking distance from the beach! We enjoyed getting our lunch at the little shop on the property. That way we didn't have to go anywhere and still enjoy the pool and the sun!! Thank you Ira for sharing your home away from home!

My family enjoyed our stay in this Panama City Condo. The view of the beach was great. The pools were just a short walk-no further than walking to the beach. The owner made the process of renting by owner very easy. He provided all necessary information and even included maps of the city.

We had a wonderful time staying in the condo. It was a great deal and had a beautiful view of the Gulf. What really put our experience over the top was Ira's assistance in getting to know the area: Restaurant recommendations, driving directions, and a willingness to answer any and all our our questions. Thanks, Ira!

Have you ever wondered what you were getting yourself into when you replied to an add on Craig's list and sent out your check to reserve your stay? Are you wondering if the place will be there when you get there? No worries, Ira is one of the most professional individuals I have come accross. The pictures he sent were exactly as the condo looked. The pools were spotless and warm (the heat was still on in the pool when we arrived.) The view from the condo was spectacular and I can truly say - life was at the beach. Sorry you couldn't join us Ira

The Dunes of Panama is a nice complex, and Ira's condo is very nice and THE BEST priced. It was a pleasure doing business with him. He will call you back 365 days a year if you need hem. He has been very good to work with.
