Our vacation trip to Panama City Beach, Florida was awesome. Our stay met all expectations and then some. Laguna Beach is the place to stay in the Florida panhandle. Royal Palms Retreat was a beautiful, roomy house. It was very accommodating to our family. We even celebrated a birthday with other extended family who actually live in PCB.
The house's location is near entertainment, groceries, treats/fast food, shopping, and of course, across the street from the BEACH. WOW! INCREDIBLE!

Amazing vacation home!
This home is very spacious and comfortable. We loved that the beach was just steps away. We also really appreciated all of the very comfortable beds and bedding. The kitchen is well stocked, and how wonderful that it's pet friendly! We hope to be back again!
Our family had the best week! Seconds walk to the gorgeous beach. Plenty of room at the beach house for 6 people plus our mini goldendoodle. The beach house was cozy and we will definitely plan another visit.

We are repeat visitors to the Royal Palms. The home is spacious and very comfortable. It is a very short walk to the beach. Royal Palms is pet friendly and we love having our pet family with us! The kitchen is well setup and we love to create our meals there. A very great place to stay!

Loved our stay!
We really enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you need for a great week. The beds were comfortable and the house was in a great location. The beach was never busy and a short walk across the street. We had friends staying on the same street and a street over so our kids enjoyed meeting on the beach and walking to the donut shop and market. Thanks for a great week!

Cute house in an excellent location close to the beach. Nice layout and well maintained with no issues. Nice, big pool to cool off in and you can grill and chill on the back deck. The beach is beautiful, the weather was great, and we enjoyed fresh made donuts and ice cream down the street. Will gladly visit again!
