About this property
Clean, Airey, Artistic, Tropical Townhouse steps from the beach
Sunset Palms has a beautiful Gulf view and is located just steps from the beach. We have two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. The master bedroom has a king-sized bed and full bathroom with a balcony and a Gulf view. The second bedroom has a queen-sized bed with a full bathroom and a garden view. All the bedrooms have a T.V., cable, and WIFI. The upstairs is also equipped with a washroom, that has a full-sized washing machine and dryer, as well as an iron and ironing board.
Downstairs, the living room is spacious and has a queen-sized sofa that opens up to sleep two. Sunset Palms will sleep six guests comfortably. The living room also boasts a 60 inch T.V., and has cable, a DVD player, a library of movies, and free WIFI.
The dining room table seats four and the kitchen-counter bar seats an additional four.
The fully remodeled kitchen is outfitted with an electric stove, a full-sized refrigerator, a dishwasher, a microwave, a toaster and a coffeemaker. It is fully stocked to serve eight, and we supply everything, from bowls to a pizza pan... You will find yourself fully equipped for all your culinary needs, at your home, away from home. Directly outside the kitchen is a small patio and garden, with seating for romantic and tropical dinners. We also have a gas grill, on which you can cook your fresh catch of the day!
Possibly, our favorite element to Sunset Palms is the artwork that graces the walls and counters. The owners, Ron and Yolie Strickland are glass artists. Every room is decorated with original artwork by Floridian artists. Please read the owners' story to see how this came about. Featured artwork by Florida artists includes: Mixed-media artist, George Bragg; Photography of local landmarks, by Micheal Jasinski; Paintings by Daryl Harwood -Bragg; Glass work by US, Ron and Yolie Strickland, and artwork by other talented and regional artists. This townhouse is like vacationing at an art show by the beach. It is refreshing and unique.
The entrance to this lovely townhouse is furnished with outdoor furniture and has an area to rinse off sand from a long, enjoyable day at the beach.
There are two designated parking places for your stay.
The feel of Sunset Palms is tropical, clean, airy, and unique.
We have been away from VRBO for a few years but, we are back.

About the host
Hosted by Ron and Yolie Strickland
We are traveling glass artists, with a passion for the unique. We have found our greatest memories in places that had something different to offer. During our years on the road, we realized that clean and unique lodgings were hard to come by..And so, after 15 years of travel, we decided to settle down and spend more time together on the beach. We dreamed of creating the special and meaningful accommodations that had eluded us for all those years. The result is, a group of, three uniquely themed vacation rentals. Sunset Palms is our most recent adventure. Our other two properties are located a mile away and are also available on VBRO. They include: Banana Cabana property #405927, and Malibu Palms property #589440.
Ron Strickland is a true native of Panama City, Florida. Growing up on the beach gave Ron a personal love for this region. Most of his childhood was spent playing in the tops of Magnolia trees and learning about the natural beauty that this area has to offer. This " aerial view" gave Ron a special perspective on his life. He has, since 1981, owned many clothing stores on Panama City Beach. He attended Huntingdon College, with the intention of becoming an archaeologist, BUT, the beach lured him back home...
Yolie ( Jolijn ) Strickland is the product of an International, United Nations family. She was born in Rome, Italy and grew up in Africa. This special coupling of living in distant lands, and her family's quest to rid the world of hunger, gave Yolie a humble view of people and their beautiful uniqueness. After coming to The United States, as a student at N.Y.U. and living in New York City for 10 years, she moved to South Florida, and eventually ended up in Panama City Beach. She has lived here for 20 years and would NEVER want to live anywhere else again. She loves it here..."This is paradise!", she says.
Ron and Yolie live a mile away from Sunset Palms. They have been married for 19 years and have one daughter and three doggies.

Why they chose this property
Sunset Palms is unlike, most beach rental properties on Panama City Beach. It is very uniquely decorated, has a Gulf view, is VERY clean, and, is fairly priced. The atmosphere on the west end of Panama City Beach is peaceful and serene. It is located away from all of the noise, congestion, and tourist traps of the east end of the beach. It is close to many restaurants great seafood dining areas. And most uniquely , it is located one mile from the beginning of scenic Highway 30-A, in Walton County. This resort area includes Rosemary Beach, Seaside, Alys Beach, Seacrest, and more. All these townships are connected by 30-A and, a 22 mile bike path, so you can tour each town for lunch, beaches, and adventure.
We purchased this property for it's view and it's proximity of the beach. You can watch beautiful sunsets from the balcony, as well as, see large flocks of pelicans flying east for the night. You can fall asleep to the sounds of waves lapping the beach. When we are at Sunset Palms, we are captivated by it's tranquil feel and, often, don't want to leave.. We know that you feel the same way.

What makes this property unique
From the moment that you arrive at Sunset Palms, to when you tour each room and experience the decorating details, you will know that you are in a special place. We hope that the experience of staying in our vacation rental, will mirror the natural and tropical experience of our beautiful beach. That alone, is a huge challenge but we feel that our care, in designing this townhouse, will rival any of the beautiful memories that you will experience on the beach. Sunset Palms is a wonderful place to escape life for a while, both inside and regionally. Our favorite touch is all of the artwork. It defines what it is like to be from here, and it describes what the artists felt as, they created their art along the shores. Panama City Beach is a magical place. Sunset Palms is a magical place along those emerald waters.
