Our stay at Howdy! was just what we needed for a beautiful, relaxing, comfortable stay at the beach! It was so nice to be on the beach side and to be able to just walk out of our condo and onto the beach with our own private boardwalk. The condo is clean, comfortable and had everything we needed in the kitchen to be able to stay in for a meal if we chose that option. The beds were 10/10! The towels were nice! It was just a perfect stay!

Creating a space that feels effortless and welcoming is always our goal, and your feedback means a lot. It is wonderful to hear your stay was perfect, and we would be honored to host you again whenever your travels bring you back to Panama City Beach.

We had a horrible time with our checkout process as the door code did not work and we had to sit in our car for an hour with groceries. Waiting for a maintenance person to come help us. The rest of our day was amazing. The property itself is comfortable and beautifully decorated. My eye compliant would be the furniture on the downstairs balcony is worn and there’s no furniture on the upstairs balcony.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us. We are truly sorry for the frustration you experienced at arrival — being unable to access the condo, especially with groceries in the car, is the opposite of the seamless start we want every guest to have. We appreciate your patience while our team worked to resolve the issue. We are glad to hear that the rest of your stay turned around and that you found Howdy Beach comfortable and beautifully decorated. We also appreciate your notes about the balcony furniture; thoughtful details like these are important, and your comments help us continue elevating the guest experience. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.

The condo was beautifully renovated and had amazing views of the gulf! It was also very clean and well maintained. My only suggestion is to replace the upstairs balcony furniture as it was broken upon arrival. Other than that, I highly recommend!

Our stay was perfect! We have been coming to Ramsgate for 10 years and it is our favorite family spot. Quiet and away from all the crowds but not too far from restaurants, shopping, etc. The condo was beautifully updated, we loved the queen over queen in the guest bedroom as we have 3 kids and it made their sleeping arrangements perfect. Everything your family would need! Wish we could have stayed longer!!

So comfortable. Just perfect.

Clean super, comfortable beds. Well appointed kitchen. Great view. No complaints. All goodness.The only annoyance was things that had to do with the rental agency policies comma such as no beach towels comma no condiments of any kind, not even salt and pepper, and a new HOA 35 parking fee per car, which at these prices is a bit ridiculous.

Inlet Beach wedding trip

We stayed here for my niece’s wedding. It was very clean. Easy to find. Very quiet. Check-in and check-out instructions were very clear. Plenty of linens and kitchen appliances. We enjoyed the complimentary soaps and lotions. The views from both balconies were the shining star of the stay! Just gorgeous! Beach access was also super convenient! One note, hot water does run out fairly quick so try to plan showers for the family accordingly.

Our trip didn’t get off to the best start. I’d asked about the possibility of an early check-in a week prior and was told they’d try to accommodate but it was clear no effort was made. I wasn’t upset, but I do wish they had at least tried.We arrived exactly on time, only to learn that the access code wouldn’t be provided until the unit was ready. I called the rental company and was told the property wouldn’t be available until 4:00 PM, despite VRBO clearly listing 3:00 PM as the check-in time. They refused to investigate without proof, so I took a screenshot and followed up with another call. They initially argued about the timing but eventually agreed to submit a request to prep the unit. It was ready within about 20 minutes. I appreciated the quick turnaround, but it confirmed they could have accommodated the early check-in—they simply chose not to. And honestly, who wants to start a vacation with an argument?Fortunately, things took a turn for the better. Once inside, the property exceeded expectations—it was spotless, beautifully furnished on two levels, with high-end appliances and fixtures. The unit was quiet despite being attached to several others, and beach access was the most convenient we've experienced in Panama City. One of our favorite spots, Bayou Bills, was even within walking distance. The departure checklist was also the simplest we’ve ever encountered.With better customer service and a smoother check-in, this would have been a five star review.
