Nice house, clean, but needs some repairs.

We had a nice stay, over all the house was very clean and what we had expected. We were able to check in early, which was wonderful! It was advertised to have a grill, fire pit, heated pool, however you have to pay extra for all that, we did find out before arriving so thankfully knew that ahead of time. Since we paid to have the pool heated it was warm and so fun, the grandkids loved it! The pool was a mess after the storm so we didn’t swim on our last day. There were so many cats running around we did notice a urine smell outside that seemed to penetrate into the house, I’m not sure if it was coming from the AC unit, the garage or from just outside the back doors. The upstairs bedrooms were nice and beds were comfortable unlike the small bed in the downstairs bedroom. The house does need some work starting with a new front door which wasn’t very secure, toilet in downstairs bathroom was pretty loose, dishwasher didn’t always work, refrigerator needs updated and one of the ceiling fans in the game room didn’t work. A clothes line out by the pool for towels would be a nice idea, but the pool had plenty of chairs around it to hang towels on. The host was easy to get ahold of and very responsive with questions.

Spring Break Stay

We had a group of 10 adults for spring break and we had an incredible time. The owners were great at communicating and we really appreciated all of the amenities. Would highly recommend staying here with families and groups of friends. If we are back in the area, we would definitely stay here again.

Christmas in Panama

The overall check in, stay, & check out process was amazing. You can tell the house is an older home and needs a few updates / TLC but everything gets old with time. Other than that my family and I enjoyed it. The Communication was superb. The pool guy was very professional and his work was excellent. Despite the few little imperfections our stay was grand. My family & I will most definitely book this home again.

Perfect Family Home

This home was perfect for our family vacation! Not only did it offer entertainment for the adults but it did for the kids too! It was conveniently located within walking distance to the beach but also in a quiet neighborhood with little traffic. The owner was very responsive as well! I would highly recommend this place and would definitely stay there again.

Great experience. Great location. We’ve never not stayed oceanfront, but we just rented a golf cart and it was a breeze. However, very walkable even with children and a beach wagon! Loved the house and all it had to offer. Having a private pool and hot tub was wonderful! Will return.

Paradise by the beach.

My family I have been to PCB before but staying here definitely made a difference. It sometimes felt like there was no reason to leave the house because it had something for everybody. When we did leave the house we were close to everything but yet far away from all the tourist craziness. The hosts were great. They always answered any concern promptly. I would definitely come back again.

Great location near the beach

This is an excellent property that was clean, and spacious for a family of five. The heated pool with a hot tub in the winter months made for a fun time for kids and adults. The beds were comfortable and the kids loved the pool table, air hockey and interactive PlayStation games . The property owner was very responsive and handled minor issues on the same day. Everyone had a great time and we would love to return.

Weekend Trip

My husband and I stayed for a long weekend. The home was clean and very comfortable. The only issue or complaint we had was the pool was not clean at all but as soon as we contacted the host they had someone out within 15 mins to clean the pool for us. Grocery store across road and several restaurants close by. Only 1 mile to Pier Park.
