About this property
Beachfront Living with a Postcard View!
Looking for a tranquil, uncrowded vacation spot on the quiet end of the beach? Whether your idea of a vacation is watching the sunset from your own balcony, sitting by the pool, or lounging on the silvery white sand by the azure water, Mariner East 406 can fulfill your fantasy. From the living room, kitchen, or dining area, an uninterrupted view of the Gulf of Mexico is yours. There is always plenty of room since there are only 58 units in Mariner East, and these are among the widest and largest one bedroom units on Panama City Beach—no crowding at the pool, on the beach, or at the elevator. Common areas have recently been refreshed and repainted, and the building has just undergone a total exterior renovation including walkways and the pool area. Being right on the beach, it is easy to run back up for something you might have forgotten or to grab a bite to eat. Should you decide to dine in, all of your food preparation items are provided. When you don’t want to cook, a myriad of good restaurants are close by, as are all kinds of entertainment venues; deep sea fishing, boat and jet ski rentals, parasailing, golf and amusement parks are just a few of the many possibilities. St. Andrews State Park is a couple of miles down Thomas Drive and the new Pier Park shopping and entertainment complex is only a short driving distance away. For those who prefer to fly, the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport is just a few miles north of Panama City Beach.
It will be easier to pack for your trip here since we provide hair dryers in each bathroom, four generous beach towels, four beach chairs, a beach umbrella, sand toys, and a small cooler.
In 2019, the master bath 5-ft. shower was re-done with new tile and has a glass shower door. Subway tile was added to both the en suite and second bathrooms. Other improvements from the last few years include custom bathroom vanity cabinets with quartz countertops and new faucets; kitchen cabinets were refurbished with new doors and drawers plus a new corner cabinet unit was added; a new stainless steel microwave was installed over the range allowing for more counterspace and a new stainless steel dishwasher. Other features include custom room-darkening shutters and draperies in the bedroom; room-darkening draperies in the living room; under-counter lights and over-sink lighting in the kitchen; subway tile backsplash; can lighting in both bathrooms; and a ceiling fan in the bedroom; second bath-- tub with tile surround and glass doors. There is porcelain, plank-style floor tile throughout the unit.
The kitchen has solid surface countertops with undermount sink, a smooth-top range, stainless steel microwave, stainless steel dishwasher, and refrigerator with ice maker. All typical small appliances are included.
The living room has a comfortable couch (sofa-bed), loveseat, and recliner from which you can watch the flatscreen television/DVD/blu-ray player or just enjoy that magnificent Gulf Coast view through the balcony door or as reflected in the four cathedral-top wall mirrors on the living/dining room walls.
The generous dining table in its shiplapped alcove easily seats six.
The bedroom has two queen-sized beds, a large dresser, a flat-screen television and its own bathroom. The bedroom has a ceiling fan and light along with sconce lighting over the beds on a shiplapped wall. A great convenience is the second full bath located off the hallway. Silky sheets and plenty of soft, thick towels make your stay more comfortable. We offer a wide variety of pillows (down alternative, medium, firm, and memory foam) to meet your preference.
A full-size washer and dryer are provided in your own laundry room with plenty of space to store any extra belongings. Beach chairs, umbrella, sand toys, and a cooler are also kept here.
The unit has its own wireless network allowing guests to access the internet from any room with no extra charge.
The front door is secured by a hospitality-grade electronic lock system that enables us to generate a different code for every guest, so your code is specific to you and the dates of your stay. No concerns that a previous guest might have access to your unit, and no worries about forgetting your key!
We invite you to vacation in Mariner East Unit 406, our comfortable beachfront retreat on one of the nicest sections of the Gulf Coast’s Panama City Beach, a beach that has often been described as the most beautiful in the world.

We're so glad you enjoyed our condo and its beautiful Gulf view right out the balcony door! We do work hard at maintaining it and making sure it is clean, well-stocked, and attractive for our guests' enjoyment. We'd love to have you return!
Very clean unit! Wonderful host who responded so quickly and was very helpful. The condo kitchen was well furnished and we enjoyed that! The only thing missing was some Tupperware, and more kitchen towels/rags.The overall condo was gorgeous! Loved the shower in the master bath. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and can’t wait to come back! 10/10 was our best condo experience we’ve ever had and we have been coming to PCB for 15 years! Thanks again, Debby!

Thank you so much! We love it when our unit is a good fit for our guests and when they appreciate it and take the time to say so! We're eager to have you return, and we'll work on providing more kitchen towels and food storage containers!
This place is so cute and perfect for the two of us. Lots of beach toys and chairs, also beach towels. The property and pool area is very well maintained and has little conveniences that you don’t know you need until they are there. Like a bench by the outdoor wash. It was so handy! The only negative is the mattress was uncomfortable but we love it so much we will be back regardless.

Thanks so much for the complimentary review; it’s great to have our efforts appreciated! We do want to clarify for potential guests that our building is located right on the beach, and our unit has a beautiful beach view. We are on the fourth floor, so a short elevator ride to ground level and a walk by the pool through the beach gate brings you immediately to the gorgeous white sands of the Emerald Coast. Thanks again! We'd love to have you return!
We usually stay in hotels when we travel and this was my first time booking a combo. I have no regrets and being that this was my first experience, I would definitely do it again. I have no complaints about this condo. It was very clean, smelled good, good location, and had everything we needed. Booking experience was great and the owner sent everything I needed way in advance of our trip. Condo was very comfortable and the balcony was relaxing with an awesome view. Would definitely book again!

Great little getaway condo.
Condo is beautifully updated and it is so nice not to be in a massive building with tons of people. Lots of peace and tranquility to be found here. Love the large laundry room and that the owners provide a lot of items not typically found in condo rentals - such as beach gear. Also bed linens and towels are top quality. Will definitely stay again.

About the host
Hosted by Deborah Alexander
Before retiring we were (respectively) a high school teacher/counselor and the assistant director of a Big Ten university real estate department. We brought our own children to Panama City Beach for vacations for many years and now enjoy having our grandchildren visit as well.
Why they chose this property
After staying at many condominium projects up and down Panama City Beach for over twenty years, we realized that Mariner East offered what we were looking for in a vacation spot: a small, quiet, family-oriented development with a large share of the beach in proportion to its population and a straight-on view of the beach from the living area. These units are some of the widest one-bedroom units on the beach, and with only six floors and 58 units, it is never crowded at the pool, on the beach, or the elevator.
What makes this property unique
Mariner East is close to many activities, but because of its location on the quiet end of the beach, our guests are not subject to the crowds and noise of large developments housing thousands of people. There is a wide expanse of beach for Mariner East guests, and it is especially nice to be able to look off your balcony and easily locate friends or family members on the beach or at the pool.
