About this property

100 Yards to Beach: 3 King Beds, Bunks, HEATED PRIVATE POOL - 5 Baths

This beautiful three story beach house is just a few steps from the beach! Perhaps you would prefer to lounge around a private pool, instead. Heat the pool for just a little extra fee. The house is located in a lazy laid back neighborhood of private homes on the beach. At the same time, you are 5-10 minutes away from all the best restaurants and shopping.
Friends of mine once said that when they go on vacation, they want to stay somewhere that is nicer than their own home. That is exactly what we have tried to accomplish with this totally elegant Beach House. This place has all the bells and whistles. Every bedroom has a King size bedroom suite. One set of built in bunks with deluxe pillow top mattresses. There is a queen sleeper sofa on the second floor. This is a perfect set up for two or more families.

Be prepared for luxury from the formal dining room as you enter, to the 12 foot ceilings and magnificent crown moulding throughout. Granite counters grace the well equipped kitchen as do the stainless appliances. Watch your favorite TV shows on large screen TVs in the living room or family room or enjoy your show from the comfort of your bedroom.

On the second level you will find what we like to call the family suite. There you will find a large family room, including a wet bar and half bath. The built in bunks make this like a fourth bedroom. There is a large balcony overlooking the private HEATED POOL. The second floor bedroom has a king bed suite with bath, balcony and HD LED TV.

The third level has two king bedrooms with private baths. The Master Suite is adorned with a fireplace, double vanity, a jetted tub and a spacious shower. A private balcony off the Master is a great place to enjoy warm moonlit Florida nights. The second bedroom has a beautiful Tropical King Bedroom suite for your comfort. Both bedrooms are equipped with a TV.

Other Amenities: Private Pool : Washer/Dryer : Wireless Internet : : Smart TV : Parking : Keyless Entry

Prime Location: On the quieter end of PCB on the much desired beach side of Thomas Drive. A hundred steps down Albacore Street and you are on the beach... no crossing busy streets to get to the beach. Only 3 miles from St. Andrews State Park and walking distance from several restaurants and amusement parks.

Overall the stat was good. My code didn’t work at the door but the owner was quick to give us another way in. I didn’t realize this was a duplex style home until we arrived. The cleanliness was pretty good but not excellent. One of the beds had sand on the top of the comforter. Not very easy to walk to restaurants but was pretty close to the beach. Overall a good place for the money.

Me and my friends stayed here with our wife’s. The home was so spacious and each couple had thier own space and bathrooms . It was extremely clean and the kitchen was stocked and organized . All appliances worked . Kitchen has plenty of space to cook full meals as well! TV’s in each room with smart tv capabilities . They really don’t ask for much for the cleaning exit instructions ! Owner was easily accessible by phone . It is so close to beach access that you can walk back to the house in 3 minutes to use the bathroom if needed. Overall highly recommend this place . Myself and all my friends and their wives loved the art and vibe . Tons of walkable restraints ( coffee, ice cream, pizza, gas station , liquor stores , shops to grab boogie bored Sandels etc) it’s on a main road but was very quiet at night . Would definitely stay here again when we come back to Panama .

Beautiful home and well decorated! Responsive owner and managed privately. Big plus! So many bathrooms and nice big beds. Loved the throw blankets!! Heated pool was super fun even though it was on the smaller side, our kids still laughed their hearts out. Loft area with the tv and bunks was a great area for our kids. Everything you need was provided. Bring a noise machine if you are sensitive to sound. The roadway noise is quite loud but calmed down near midnight. A floor fan is provided. We also were there in peak week so more tourist were present. And the lights shining in were bright with no curtains. Luckily I had an eye mask. Location was great along a main road. Near attractions and food! Gas station and ice station across the street. Beach was accessed one block through the neighborhood. A nice simple walk. Beautiful neighborhood. 10 mins to Publix Sports park. Ample kitchen supplies, bedding and towels. Really felt like we were staying at a family members home. Nice touch to have cleaning supplies and a vacuum left out also. The sand gets messy. Will definetly keep this one in mind for next year!

Everything we needed! Great location. Privacy. Loved the quietness of the area. There is a lot of stairs but expected that with it being 3 stories. We had more than enough room. Our grandchildren loved the pool. Conveniently located near everything .Walmart and DG really close. There were plenty of towels and wash cloths. We like getting a unit with washer and dryer because it’s convenient especially when you have a 5 & 6 year old. Bill was very quick to answer any questions we had. This is a great place to stay and you won’t be disappointed.

Thank you for taking a few moments to leave a review. It is our goal to provide a home away from home for our guests. I know that we have made many upgrades to the house that don't really show on our site. I would rather our guests be pleasantly surprised at how nice and well equipped the house is than to arrive and find the property to be less than they expected! Hope to see you again real soon. Thanks for sharing with friends.

About the host

Hosted by Bill Shaffield

Host profile image
Albacore House is our first vacation home. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. We are from Tennessee and hope to enhance your visit with good ole warm Southern Hospitality. Let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay better. Feel free to call us when you arrive to let us know how everything is.

Why they chose this property

We know you will love the house location. We have been visiting PCB for 25 years and have always wanted a place on or near Surf Drive. We love the little sixties style motels and beach homes in this peaceful little neighborhood. It is like walking back in time to a more innocent era. Hopefully, you will have an opportunity to meet some of our great neighbors. Feel free to speak when you see them... they like that.

What makes this property unique

There is more to do than sunbath or walk on the most beautiful beaches in America. We enjoy riding our bikes around the neighborhood. There are lots of practically deserted streets to ride on and bike lanes all over the county. We also bring our jet skis and go out on the gulf to watch the dolphins. Don't forget to keep your eye out for a manatee while you are on the beach. They are quite friendly creatures. Susan loves the great shopping at Pier Park and Panama City. There are several dive shops on Thomas drive if you like scuba diving. I have snorkeled on the jetties at St. Andrews Park. There is some good bike riding in the park as well. PCB is becoming more and more popular for motorcycle riding. I like riding down through Mexico Beach and Port St. Joe to Appalachicola. The oysters come in on the boats right there and most of the restaurants serve them up fresh.

There is plenty of entertainment for everyone. Shipwreck Island Water Park, miniature golf, a half dozen golf courses, charter fishing, para sailing, boat and jet ski rentals, and more.
