Great View and Convenient Location!

This was our 2nd stay on this property for an annual gals trip for two. We loved the renovated condo, and right on the beach! Coffee on the balcony with peaceful views of the morning sunrise, before parking in our beach chairs and umbrella(included) ...

Very affordable beach condo!

We stayed at Brad’s condo for 7 nights and had an amazing time! The condo was very clean and spacious. The building is gated so you get a more private feel than the huge condos surrounding. We arrived on a Saturday night and the surrounding condos an...

Decent All Around 3.75 out of 5

Decent all around, depending on what you're looking for. Could be just right for some, could be a bit less than that for others. A bedding update (pillows etc...) and a commercial grade cleaning would really help this place go up a few notches. The S...

Great!!!

The only compliant is the parking. You can NOT park in the south garage. Only the north. & the walk to the actual room is LONG. & it took us 30 mins to actually find the room. Another guest had to help us find the room and figure out to get there . O...

This property is more than 5 stars! Awesome!

My wife and I have rented from VRBO 9 times in the last few years. 8 of those rentals were enjoyable and lived up to expectations. (1 was awful and a disgrace to VRBO.) This property and its owners exceeded our expectations at every turn. They have...

Good vacation

The property was as described. Photos of the condo were pretty accurate. The only thing was all the dishes we used were dirty so we washed before using. The storage with beach chairs on balcony was broken as well as most of the chairs. I notified man...

Pretty sweet place

It was very nice overall. Freshly remodeled with everything you need to enjoy your stay. We had rain the night before we left and had to take all our luggage down 22 stories because the elevators broke and nobody ever came to fix it in at least 8 hou...

Destination guide

Find Panama City Beach pet-friendly rentals

If you're looking for a pet-friendly vacation rental in Florida but want a bit of a slower pace, Panama City Beach could be the ideal destination. Sometimes it's just too darn hot in central and southern Florida, but Panama City Beach in northern Florida is just perfect. The beach is at the top of the Gulf of Mexico, sheltered from many of the weather issues that can arise during hurricane season in areas like Miami that are on the southern Atlantic side of the state.

Things to do

Attractions near Panama City Beach vacation homes

One thing you can count on if you book a PCB vacation rental: you'll never be bored. Museums in the area will delight any kids in tow, and they're quirky enough to fascinate grown-ups as well. The Man in the Sea Museum takes a close look at the sport of diving, and its interactive exhibits allow you to crank up an air pump, climb into a submersible, and learn how diving bells really work. WonderWorks is half museum, half amusement park, with an obstacle course, a laser-tag maze, and virtual-reality soccer matches.

Activities

What to do near Panama City Beach vacation rentals

The hub of Panama City Beach is the beach itself, miles of white sand that's known for being so soft, it squeaks underfoot. Pair that with the emerald green ocean waters, and well, what more could you ask for? The scene is lively and youthful, especially during spring break and summer. If you don't mind a crowd and love a club scene when the sun goes down, you'll be in heaven. If something quieter is more your style, book a sunset boat tour or take the sailing shuttle to Shell Island, a more peaceful beach destination.

Weather

Climate during your stay in Panama City Beach vacation homes

PCB's subtropical climate means some wet weather during hurricane season, but don't let that cloud the facts—the city boasts 320 days of sunshine each year. Spring break is the most popular time for visitors, especially the college-age variety, so join the party or wait until May if you don't want to share your beach towel. Hot, beach-perfect weather makes summer an ideal time to visit. Just bring an umbrella for rainy days, especially in July and August. If you'd like a deal on a Panama City Beach vacation rental, book in winter and enjoy the quiet.

Natural features

Your new animal friends are furry, scaly, and feathered

You might think PCB is just too busy and bustling to accommodate marine species and wetland wildlife. Fortunately, you're wrong. St. Andrews State Park, on the southeast edge of the city, is 1260 peaceful acres of nature trails, swimming spots, and habitats for foxes, coyotes, seabirds, and alligators. (Don't touch! But do swim freely in the saltwater. ‘Gators stay safely in their freshwater homes.) Head to the northwest corner of the city for another natural locale, Conservation Park. Its 2900 acres offer 24 miles of trails shaded by cypress trees.
