Condo was very clean and nicely decorated. We had all equipment and linens that were needed. The view from the balcony was very nice even in the rain storm. The only problem we had was the written instructions for the door lock was opposite from the video instructions, It was confusing . Property was very well maintained. Grounds very nice,

It is sad that you are rating my condo based on your own incompetence. Three days and you could not figure out a simple lock, what does that say about you?

My stay here last week was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless and beautifully maintained. You can tell a lot of care goes into making sure guests are comfortable.The view was incredible—honestly one of my favorite parts of the whole experience. It made the stay feel even more special and relaxing.I truly don’t have a single negative thing to say. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be booking this property again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a clean, peaceful, and enjoyable stay!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay this past Saturday and Sunday in Panama City Beach. The condo exceeded our expectations, but the real highlight was the view — it was truly breathtaking. Waking up and seeing the ocean right outside was peaceful and unforgettable. The sunsets alone were worth the trip.The hostess was equally amazing. She was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and made sure everything was seamless from check-in to check-out. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests having a great experience, which made a big difference to me.The space itself was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described, but it was the combination of the stunning view and exceptional hospitality that made this stay stand out.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in PCB.

Host was fantastic and gave very clear instructions for check in. The included beach chairs and umbrella were a huge bonus, especially when you look at the pricing for them on the beach. Overall, the room was very nice and the view was even better. The Condo property itself could use some work (elevators were gross and had no AC) but not bad enough to cause any issue. The only issue would be from Pineapple Willy's being directly next door. Almost every night of our 9 day stay, we had the annoyance of police sirens and spotlights shining in the room because of teenagers and party people going wild on the beach. We didn't get to go to sleep until around 1am every single night. I would recommend some very thick (or even blackout) style curtains in the bedroom.
