The bedrooms and bathrooms were very small. Also it was a funky electrical system with some switches that had to be turned on to make another in another room work. It had a slightly musty smell also.The beach was gorgeous. The pool and club house are beautiful.

Much older than I thought it would be but so cute. Could be cleaned a little better but was not bad for our messy kids. Beds are much more comfortable than other places I have stayed and the sofa sleeper was decent for my 9 and 6 year old.

We had a lovely stay at Kim’s property. From making the reservation to check out she was a delight to work with. She answered any and all questions we had. Unit is clean and very comfortable. The walk to the beach takes about 2 minutes. The added bonus of beach lounge chairs and umbrella being provided was so nice. Will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Kim Johnson

Host profile image
 
   I  grew up coming to the beautiful beaches of Panama City Beach, Fl. I have so many precious memories with my family biking through St. Andrews State Park, fishing off the pier and jetties, watching the boats come in at Captain Anderson's and of course just enjoying the beach. I remember when Sugar Beach was built and feel so lucky to have a second home here. We bought here in 2016 hoping to make more wonderful  memories with friends and family. We hope to share our love of Panama City with you!

Why they chose this property

We loved the family friendly atmosphere at Sugar Beach. We love the location on Thomas Drive near the State Park and how the beaches are less crowded in this area.

What makes this property unique

Parking at your front door so no waiting on elevators.
