  Just finished my third stay at Jan's CREW REST STOP and I can't stop saying great things about my stay. From the time I get a copy of the contract until I stay and get my deposit back, it is a pleasure working with Jan. And I can not forget the wonderful house and the great views. I live in Chicago and it is great to enjoy the beach and sand or the private pool and the weather. Keep up the great work Jan I will be back next year as well. I have been telling all my friends about the great stay!!!

  Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful beach home with us!! We loved it and everything was so convenient and close to everything!!! The beach was awesome and just a few steps away. The heated pool was perfect! There were plenty of beds and bathrooms for our large family. The kitchen had everything you need. The house is so cozy. We had a great time and you are the greatest to work with.

  i just wanted to write this review..which i rarely do, because i was so impressed with the house and the amenities! first of all the pictures do not do this house justice. the rooms were large and the beds were so very comfortable. the house was cleaner then most high end hotels. it was very well appointed and the linens and towels were like those at home! the owner has the place decorated better than most homes. it was also very nice that all 4 of us couple felt as if we had an escape to ourselves for afternoon napping, reading, watching tv...etc. it was a delight to see that all four bedrooms had their own private balcony with furniture for morning coffee! the pool is a salt pool which is so nice for the skin and after a day at the beach was so relaxing. we had rain most of our stay but enjoyed the house so much we were not overly disappointed! the location is the best and it's across the street from the best restaurant in panama city beach..schooners. it is on a four lane road but crossing is very easy as the road is not too busy. the location is at a quieter part of pcb...and close to the state park and shell island! we will definitely be going back and i have already been recommending this property to others!

  We were very impressed with the house. I loved the keyless door system. We never had to worry about keys, and checking in was so easy! The furnishing were very nice. We loved having wirless internet and cable as well. All of the rooms were nicely appointed. All of the beds were comfortable and I loved how close we were to the beach. Crossing the street was a breeze and the beach was wonderful. The only downside was the heated pool. It was to be heated and did not stay heated for the duration of the stay. Otherwise, it was a great place to stay that was away from the rowdy beach down the way. Will definately use again! Thanks Jan!

  Owner response: Thanks for the positive response. The pool heater is a new addition to the house and I found out that the heater only heats the water when the pump is running. The pump runs about 8 hours a day so we will run the pump more now to compensate. This is definately the best end of the beach and we can walk to our favorite resturant,Schooners.

  We had a great vacation in this beautiful home! I loved that we all had our own seperate space, large enough, lots of bathrooms, no waiting. The decor was beautiful and Jan thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. I had my 2 small dogs with me and the layout was perfect for keeping them out from under our feet. Location was perfect, on the main road but far enough away to give some privacy on the beach.Everything was clean and comfortable. Thanks for sharing your home with us ! ]

  We just returned from our first trip to Panama City Beach. This is our 5th women only trip and this was by far the best house we have had so far. We have always rented houses with pools and this was the first one that the pictures actually reflected what the house truly looked like. In the past, the pics looked great, but the house seemed much older and run down than the pics showed. The walk to the beach was very easy. We were leary at first with four lanes of traffic, but with the median in the middle, it was a very easy stroll every day and we lugged a very large, heavy cooler over each day. This was also the first house where the maid had not taken all the leftover soaps, laundry, dish detergent, etc. We purchased everything not knowing this, but there was plenty of leftovers there to keep someone from having to shop right off the bat. House was very convenient to shopping, restaurants, ice machines...pretty much everything you need. Beach area was wonderful because it was in the neighborhood of mostly houses so we had plent of room to spread out and not be so cramped. You could look down the beach and see that was not the case down in the areas of the large condos. They were smashed in there like a bunch of sardines. I hope this review helps anyone looking to rent this house. Every woman in our house was very pleased so that is an accomplishment in its self!! We will definitely be returning in the future!

  Owner response: Mandy, thank you for your wonderful response. I do try to add extra things to make the house feel like home. Not the case with many of my neighbors. I keep up with repairs and try to make my house look fresh . Many people are disappointed with many beach houses down here because they look so sterile. Mine is exactly like you see in the video. Thank you so much. Jan

  We stayed here 7/3 - 7/10. Great if you like to be near the action but not on top of it. The road is busy that you have to cross to the beach but we never had a problem. We did feel the beach was a little further than advertized but wasn't really a problem. We had a 7 months pregnant lady with us and we always walked to the beach. House was very clean, nicely decorated, pool area nice and cozy. We had 10 staying here, (11 if you count the new baby with us) and had plenty of room, mainly because we were outside most of the time. We would definitely rent this again.

  Owner response: my house is where Thomas Drive goes down to two lanes. There is a grassy island in-between the two lanes. Its very easy to cross. My house is literally 75 steps to beach if you walk straight across to beach. I am the first tier of houses from the ocean. My house does sleep 12 people. Its very comfortable and decorated so much better than most beach rentals down here. Thanks .

  Thanks Jan for sharing this great home with my family . This home was set up great for each family to have private space or be a family .We all had a wonderful time while there . The price was good for all that was included . The pool was great. We were a little concern about not going through a realty co. and renting from a private owner but it was all good . Not having to keep up with keys was great also. The key code system was nice for all of us to come and go as a family or independent . Captian Jack's was a good family restaurant . I would suggest that anyone with children go on the pirates ship , this is fun for the whole family . Thanks again .

  Incredible vacation spot and loved everything about this well-maintained house. It is very comfy and homey with lots of little touches that make it special in every way. The pool is great with lots of seating and the individual master bedrooms are perfect for an extended family get-away. The kitchen is well-stocked and shopping is convenient for groceries and sundries. We loved Pier Park for restaurants and personal shopping and even a small carnival ride area for the kids. Miracle Mile has many fun activities for everyone. It is so nice to have the comforts of home while vacationing. We hope to return again next year and the year after that, Lord willing. Thanks so much.
