Great place to get away
We stayed here during the Panama City Beach World Series Softball tournament. The location was perfect, in between both fields. The home was beautiful and fully equipped with everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will stay here again next time we visit.

Convenient
The unit was clean and convenient to get access to the beach. I do wish the check in instructions were slightly different in the aspect that the address takes you to private gate rather than main entrance. Otherwise, our stay was great. It literally has everything you need down to beach chairs. No complaints!

Great location!
We enjoyed being so close to the pool and ocean. We also spent a lot time at the beachside pool that has a restaurant. Would recommend to anyone looking for a clean and convenient rental.

Its a rental unit
The unit is nice enough. All the necessary items except a box of tissues. There wasn't a single box of tissues anywhere. The closet in the 2nd bedroom is partially blocked by the bunk beds. It is clearly a rental property. Neighbors were a bit rude. They were parked in one of our spaces when we arrived. Exchanged pleasantries and they asked if we needed both spaces. We said yes we would need both spaces as I have friends that are owners that came to visit in their golf cart. They politely moved the car with no further incidents until their young adult child/children had friends over and they did not get the memo to not park in our spot. At one point they had 10 young people come out of the place and there was at least 5 cars.
