Pier Park (1.4 mi / 2.2 km)
Hidden Lagoon Golf and Racetrack (0.6 mi / 0.9 km)
Russell-Fields Pier (1 mi / 1.6 km)
Holiday Golf Club (1.9 mi / 3 km)

Celebrate sunset every night at Sharky's (just across the street), or kick back and relax in front of the glowing fireplace and watch the NIGHT PUT ON A SPARKLE SHOW FOR FREE! For you young people, that is a line from the Drifter's hit, 'Up on the Roof', and I think of the song every time I enjoy the night view!

The sunset ocean view is unbelievable!
Be sure to go to the 15th floor observation deck for a knockout view of the sun melting softly into the Gulf of Mexico!

After sunset (Can't miss sunset!) take a walk to Pier Park and enjoy the music and festivities going on. Oh, did I mention SHOPPING! Bargain hunting at all the mall stores, specialty shops, and boutiques in Pier Park will keep you busy for days!

We fell in love with CRABBY'S the moment we saw the amazing ocean and sunset views along Gulf of Mexico shoreline.
Keep your camera ready, because one sunset is more beautiful than the next. Bring your binoculars because Crabby's overlooks a nature view to the right of the balcony where wildlife abounds!

Our Pictures say it all. You will be impressed with the open floor plan of this particular unit, and the panoramic views from the balcony.

Evenings in Crabby's are special, with a view of the Pier Park Skywheel and twinkling light show
This is not your ordinary studio condo.

NO-NO's
- No parties! We love hosting responsible Spring Breakers, but we do not rent to students without parents or legal guardians present. The responsible party must be at least 21 years of age, and must be staying on the property.
- No pets allowed. (Grandkids are allergic!)
- No smoking, vapor products, or e-cigarettes are allowed in our condo or on our balconies. Crabby's Sunset is smoke-free.

BEACH ACCESS:
Take the speedy elevator to the first floor lobby, cross at the crosswalk (CARS WILL STOP FOR YOU!), and enter the PRIVATE 'TOWNE OF SEAHAVEN' BEACH ACCESS.
Leave your flip flops on the boardwalk, by the bench/shower, then SQUISH your toes in the WORLD FAMOUS SUGAR WHITE SAND of Panama City Beach. Set up your beach chairs at the waters edge, and RELAX in the land of AHHHHH's!
If you get hungry, Sharky's is right there, awaiting your order.
Nothing like an ice cold drink on a smokin' hot sunny Florida day!🍹

Owner's note: WE never thought we would be happy staying ANYWHERE that was not at the water's edge on the beach. That was before we experienced ORIGIN! Before purchasing, we explored many resorts along the beach, but nothing compared with the amenities (We got spoiled!) that Origin has to offer, at a fraction of the cost of the others.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SACRIFICE QUALITY FOR AN AFFORDABLE VACATION! ORIGIN OFFERS LUXURY!
As you lounge at the Grand Pool Terrace soaking up the rays, you will have the sensation of being pampered like ROYALTY!
YOU DESERVE THIS!

P.S.
"I wasn't born at the beach, but I got there as fast as I could!"

This was the perfect place for me and my husband for a relaxing weekend away! Very clean and updated decor made Sharon's place feel like home! Beautiful beach view and location to Pier Park was outstanding. We really enjoyed the hot tub in the evening which provided expansive ocean views. We will be back!!!

Close to Pier Park

Thank you for sharing your condo with us, it was just perfect for the two of us. We enjoyed walking the beach everyday and being so close to Pier Park. Your balcony view was perfect too.

Within walking distance to almost anything we could want!

We recently stayed at this studio condo. The accommodations were very nice. It had a nice, comfortable bed. The unit was very clean and neat. The location was great. It was within walking distance to almost anything we could want. Within a short drive we could go shopping at the outlet mall or to St. Andrews Bay for a day of snorkeling or shelling. The pool and the workout room were very nice also. We spent a lot of time at the pool. The beach was right across the street and couldn’t have been easier to get to. It was nice to sit on the beach in the evening and watch the sunset. There is an abundance of restaurants for dining out. A short distance down the road was Pier Point with all kinds of shopping and dining. There is a particularly good ice cream store. We checked it out more than once. We had a great time and would certainly recommend this studio to anyone. Hopefully we will get the opportunity to go there again sometime soon.

Highly recommend!

We were very spoiled by the HUGE TV on the wall opposite the king bed, and the ocean view! The condo was very clean and well decorated - got much more than we expected for the price. The owners "welcome book" with menus and suggested activities helped us make good choices. The warm swimming pool was wonderful in January, and the huge jacuzzi hot tub with ocean view was amazing!

A Fabulous Vacation Resort

My friend and I stayed at Origin for a week in June, and we absolutely loved it! The condo itself was very warm, comfortable and inviting. The cleanliness, new tile, and general upkeep certainly contributed to that atmosphere. The listing description was accurate...the appearance was even more beautiful than they described and amenities were very nice. We flew in and did not rent a car because we planned to spend most of our time on the beach. However, we did decide to tour and view the sites, and used the bus transportation. It was great - bus came by every 30 minutes and it was also economical. We traveled to various restaurants, but our favorite was right across the street - Sharkeys. I am a "karaoke nut" so we were there every Monday and Wednesday. Other restaurants were also within walking distance, or we took the bus. The view was absolutely breath-taking, so be sure to ride the elevator to the floor where you can watch the sunrise or sunset. Ocean view was also fantastic! Many mornings I sat on the balcony and enjoyed the peace & tranquility that I feel when I am near the ocean. It was nice to have such a short walk to the ocean where we could soak up the sun, and we also enjoyed the pool because it was so convenient. I have recommended Origin to all of my family and friends, and hope that others enjoy their stay as much as we did!

Sorry to leave

Just back in sunny but cold Ohio I was very sorry to leave the warm and friendly PCB area. Stayed a week in Sharon's studio and it was just as described, clean, well decorated and laid out. View from room and pool deck is wonderful. Hot tub is super. Sharon was most helpful as was staff at Origin. Hope to visit again and will definately stay at Origin.

Guest's email to Owner!

I wanted to touch base with you since we have returned from the trip to Florida. The weather was beautiful as so were the beaches. There is no oil to be found in the area anywhere. We loved the condo and its location. You have it decorated so cute and the notebook you put together is so helpful. We used the towel service and the pool and you are so lucky to have the ice machine located close to your room. The walk to the beach was simple and we spent lots of time on the beach. I found a broom in the closet to sweep up what sand seemed to find its way into the condo. We had a great time and a beautiful wedding and each night we relaxed and watched the sun set from the balcony.

We had a great time staying at The Origin. We had never stayed in a condo before and this was beautiful, we felt like we were at home. The area was great! We had friends staying beach front across the street from us and their condos were not half as nice as The Origin. Sharon was very, very nice and helped me greatly! We had a blast and hope to come back next year!! So Sharon, I will be giving you a call very soon!! Thanks so much and our family will be back!!

An Enjoyable Trip

We stayed at the Orgin in April 2010 - in one of the Studio + units - the room was great! Clean and a nice size for just the two of us. We only stayed a few days and spent the majority of the time on the beach, which really wasn't a problem to get to, even with the traffic and crossing the street. We never went to the pool but all of the areas we did see were just as described and pictured on the web. The only downside (and for someone who has never been to PCB before, my boyfriend didnt mind it all) was that the front doors of the units exit to an interior hall instead of directly outside, but the price was right and Sharon was super helpful in getting everything arranged and giving us lots of tips on what to bring and what we didnt need to lug around. We had a super time and would definitely stay there again.

Our stay

The condo was beautiful, employees friendly and we liked the location. We would hesitate to return to Origin at Seahaven because of the wait for an elevator. A service elevator is definitely needed. We found it frustrating to wait for 5-10 minutes for an elevator filled to capacity with housekeeping carts. One employee stopped the elevator at each floor to clean the landing. Our unit was on the 13th floor so using the stairs wasn't feasible when carrying luggage, coolers or beach chairs.

Great Location!

While my husband was on a bachelor's party fishing trip in Cape San Blas, I was able to have a relaxing Memorial Day "girls weekend" at Origin. It was fantastic. The room was so spacious and the view was great. We basically just rotated between the beach (which is right across the street), Sharkey's (a restaurant right on the beach, just in front of the hotel) and the pool/hot tub which was high above the street and great for watching sunsets. No need to go anywhere else! Additional perks - kitchenette, parking right below the hotel (with elevator access), along with the towel service for room and pool. We had worried a little bit about the oil spill but were confident in reserving this space after talking with Sharon. She walked me through everything on the phone and even gave me tips on what to pack. So gracious! Thank you for everything - we hope to visit again down the road.

Wonderful Experience

I travel alot, so I know quality.....1429 is quality. Arriving in late May 2010, we were greeted by a very friendly, helpful staff. The little theatre room was an added bonus; I saw movies almost everyday. Our condo was clean and spacious. The 'non-view' room had a wonderful view of the ocean and early morning sunrise. Although we could not get our hands on a luggage cart coming or going, we were close enough to the elevators to make do. Another plus is the Condos are conveniently located in the middle of everything. And I love the covered parking. The beach was clean and perfect for us. Sharon tried so hard to please, and we were definitely not dissappointed. We will be going back to PC, and we have decided that this is where we will stay....everytime.

Great Stay

My overall experience at the Origin was great. When I checked in, I was actually given a different room that the one I had booked. Therefore I really cannot comment on the actual condo unit, but the property was amazing. Sharon was very helpful on the phone when I booked the room, and gave me great advise on what I was interested in. Would definitely recommend to family and friends and hope to return soon.

We had a wonderful time in Seahaven. Sharon was wonderful to work with and was very honest about room 1409. It had a wonderful view and the king size bed was to die for. The pull out couch was another story, but we made due and I made a big pallet on the floor for my kids with pillows and blankets. I do wish, however, the staff at the origin was more knowledgeable. Many did not know about the kids' activities they could only hand out a sheet of paper that said when they were happening and where (at Sharkys). They did not monitor smoking habits around the pool and unfortunately we learned the first week of June is not the best time to go b/c of so many young adults at Origin. Overall we moved when people smoked and called sercurity when the parting was too loud. We would stay there again, just change the time frame. Thanks Sharon, Mike loved taking all 500 and something pics from the room...

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Lewin Campbell

Host profile image
We honeymooned in Maui in 2007 after a 2 year courtship! I was widowed and had sadly sold my little beach condo at Sunbird in 2002. (My family fell in love with Panama City Beach since we arrived here in a pop-up camper in 1985!) After selling my Sunbird, I was so bummed - then daughter Kerry said she would buy another condo with me - and we purchased Calypso - perfect for a large family. We LOVE it! Then when I met Terry and got married again, we wanted a special place for the two of we found that perfect spot at Origin.
A NEW BEGINNING....

Why they chose this property

My husband and I are very excited to be a part of the 'Towne of Seahaven'. A few years ago, during a beachwalk from Calypso, we stopped in the Seahaven Welcome Center. We were touched by the Bennett family's dedication to a dream they had since 1924! We liked the idea of being able to leave the car behind and walk to everything. We fell in love with the spacious design, and the romantic view from the oversized balcony - facing SUNSET!

What makes this property unique

My favorite part of Origin is the 4th floor Grand Pool Terrace and the HOT TUB. After a long walk on the beach there is nothing better than a relaxing soak in the foaming hot tub with the million dollar ocean view in front of me.
LIFE IS GOOD!

Beach access is EASY. Take a speedy elevator to lobby level, go outside to the crosswalk, cars stop, you cross to 'WELCOME TO SEAHAVEN' private beach access and the ocean is yours!

If you need suggestions on what to see and do during your vacation at Panama City Beach, just browse through the WELCOME TO THE BEACH book I have in the condo, or check out the many brochures and discount coupon booklets in the lobby.

Love and blessings to all,
Terry & Sharon Campbell AKA
