Lovely Beachfront

What a perfect spot right on the beach. The balcony porch was perfect; wonderful gulf views, and amazing sunsets. And I absolutely loved being right next to the beach access for Nautical Watch. Dan was wonderful to work with as well! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and highly recommend this unit right on the beach. I will definitely be back next year.

Perfect Beach Getaway!

The condo was well appointed and exactly as described. We had a wonderful stay! The first floor location was very convenient to the beach. The bed linens could use some updating, the sheets had knots on them. I flipped the sheet over and it was better. I would definitely rent this condo again;)

Sitting on the Sand

Loved the unit. The porch is almost sitting on the sand and the view is beautiful from sun up to spectacular sunset. The place is very homey and welcoming. If you love the old Florida feel this is the place. The complex is not overbuilt providing room to be comfortable and enjoy the beach. I plan on returning.

Great place, easy access, and an amazing view.

We have stayed at Nautical Watch 5 times. Everytime has been great. Private beach thats not overcrowded, or crazy, and the condos that are big enough to be comfortable. We love this area of Panama City and it fits our 4 person family perfect. They do have larger condos but thats up to you. The traffic is also much better in the area of Nautical Watch compared to other places down the beach. I could move here I would. The owner is very responsive and also helped us change our times this past stay with no issue.

Gorgeous sunsets

Great condo for beach lovers! First floor —feet from the beach—and sunsets do not get any better from this view. Balcony actually is shaded all day which is nice! Location is the reason you stay here!!! Beach isn’t super crowded and the views are amazing! Condo is nice, a little dated in the decor, but I didn’t go to PCB to admire the furniture and bedspread. The only semi-complaint I had was the noisy ceiling fan in the bedroom. Couldn’t use it at night because it squeaks— but the A/C is so cool -we didn’t need the fan. I would definitely stay here again.

Location, location, location!

This condo unit sits right next to the beach access for Biltmore Beach. The people coming and going are all families and the proximity to the beach access didn’t interrupt our enjoyment of the unit at all but it is something to note as the balcony does sit within a few feet of the access. The unit itself was clean (kitchen utensils, floors, bathroom, etc) but in need of updates (bedding, decor). We felt that the price is perfectly appropriate for the unit. We enjoyed the location- not in the thick of the touristy part of the beach but very close to all the amenities. We really appreciated the quick checkin and checkout procedures. We were even notified that our unit was ready for an early checkin although we couldn’t take advantage of the offer unfortunately. We would love to stay here again when we return to Panama City Beach!

Why they chose this property

After staying at Nautical Watch for long weekends and 'daycations' we fell in love with the whole complex. When a beach front condo became available we jumped on it.

What makes this property unique

Other than the fantastic view the sugar white sand and the incredible sunsets we really love the location and the fact that you can park literally 10 feet from the front door.
