We had an incredible time at this property! Everything was exactly as described clean, comfortable, and perfectly located. We especially loved the proximity to the beach, the pool area. And the private pool was definitely worth it just for the 18th floor guests. The check-in/check-out process was seamless, and the host was very responsive to our questions. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Panama City Beach!

Great Time and Great Place. Host was very accommodating and units were well maintained. I think these two units are the only rental units on the floor, so I’m not sure the other owners appreciate renters. However, I would and hopefully will rent them again.

Wonderful week

This condo is beautiful with gorgeous views of the gulf. It is stocked with everything that is needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed spending time on the balcony and by the private pool. Having two kitchens was great for a large group. We had a wonderful week and hope to rent again.

Family friendly luxurious double penthouse experience!

Large family group trip was enjoyed by all ages based on private roof-top pool, amazing 18th floor views, well-appointed double condo with space that went on and on, yet brought us together on the same floor! Thomas Drive is our must-stay location and when we were inside, the penthouse(s) had absolutely everything we needed including lots of baskets with fluffy blankets and well stocked double kitchens, plus much more!!!

Perfect for our reunion

Amazing property. Ample space for 13. We had 11 and it was enough room for everyone and then some. It will be tough to stay in normal units now. Every little thing was taken care of also. If you forgot something, they had it, complementary. We were using it to reunite with our family we had not seen in 15 years. It was the perfect property for this as we were all together in the same condo but still gave tons of privacy while staying in the in the same unit.It was by far the nicest condo any of us had ever stayed in.The pictures online do not do it justice. It is way way way nicer than the photos, you just have to see in person.
