The perfect little spot!

This place was perfect for our family of 6. If i had to change anything it would just be newer tv's in the bedrooms so you can sign into your Netflix or other streaming apps. However it has cable and your at the beach so it was fine for us! Thanks nikki for responding immediately when i reached out.

This unit is really in need of a deep clean and air circulation. It smells wet and musty. The fans that work are covered in dust and overall just felt and looked dirty. The kitchen was barely equipped to get by. Lucky for us, there were only three people staying because there were literally only three forks available. No pots to use, only frying pans. We come to PCB twice a year and unfortunately, this is not a place I would stay in again.

Response from VrboOwner on May 26, 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are disappointed to hear the unit did not meet your expectations. Had these concerns been communicated during your stay, we would have appreciated the opportunity to address them in real time. We take cleanliness seriously and followed up with our cleaning and maintenance teams immediately after receiving your comments. The kitchen is stocked based on the unit’s standard inventory, though we understand preferences and cooking needs can vary from guest to guest. We have since rechecked kitchen supplies and replenished missing items, including cookware and utensils. Panama City Beach’s coastal climate can occasionally create humidity challenges, especially during high-moisture periods, but we are continuing to make improvements to airflow and ventilation throughout the property. We value all guest feedback and are using your comments to further improve the experience for future stays.
