Absolutely the best view ever!! Our kids are 15 & 20. They loved it. The Murphy bed was a bonus! Nonstop views and ocean air. The property has long waits for the elevator, but we are patient people. The elevator is the only downside, but the condo was perfect! Definitely recommend. Will visit again!
The stay was overall positive. The only thing is the elevators take forever to get on and off of especially if you stay at the top floors of the building. Itâs just extremely busy , so many people staying there. I will say, this is not your typical family oriented hang out, there is a lot of younger people that hang out over here in Panama period! I think Destin and Fort Walton are your more family friendly destinations. We had a great time of course , would recommend for older kiddos not the littles, just my opinion. Thanks!
We absolutely LOVED our stay in PCB! The condo was perfect, amazing ocean views, and the perfect room for our little one. The espresso machine was the extra touch that mama needed on this vacation. This property is like its own resort right on the beach. Perfect for families! 10/10 will stay here again on our next trip to Florida :)
Stunning view and very clean place. Couldnât ask for a better experience. Would highly recommend this place. The host was quick to answer/help with any questions I had.
We loved the unit and access to the beach and pool. Also a Circle K is in walking distance. The Bar and food hut by the pool were both delicious.
And a big surprise to meâŠmy boyfriend of 8 years proposed!!
We had a great week at the beach! The property was good and the pool was great. We had no problems with security and the elevators were ok. Not long wait time. Hope to come back next year.
The room was perfect and really nice. There were so many extras provided and the view from the balcony was great! The buildings elevators were terrible and one kept breaking but thatâs not the Condo Owners fault. The pool was amazing! We will definitely be back!
We had a great time!! Property was very nice. I booked the condo on a Monday with arrival on a Tuesday. (Last minute trip) our property manager was Awesome since it was such short notice. We will definitely be back.
Condo was clean and beautiful. Wonderful views. Condo is fully equipped with everything you need for a wonderful stay.
I do need to say the resort staff were rude and lazy. I went to get resort packet and was grreted by a very rude, rude did i say rude employee at the desk. She refused to help me bc i did not rent from them. We were given bracelets to wear that sported a $100fine if we lost but yet they did not work. I asked for new ones and was told "there was plenty of security and i could ask one of them to open a gate if needed". So not able to go on beach after "security" was not at beach gate. We had to wait every time we left and get out of the van and go ask someone to come open the gate (they were not happy about and very rude).
The location and view was amazing. Communication was top tier with the property manager. Parking was a little tricky at first but got the hang of it once you know where your spot is and the layout. Issues with the building (NOTHING to do with the VRBO property owner): Wish they had more elevators. To have as many condos as SOP does and only 4 elevators is a bit of a pain during high traffic times. I'm not sure what the policies are for the property regarding marijuana, but every time we walking around the property there were areas that smelled like it. Back to the condo... It was super clean and the beds were comfy. We would most likely stay there again regardless of the property issues listed. If you head to Pineapple Willy's (highly recommend), ask for Murray!
Condo was as advertised and very clean and inviting. We very much enjoyed our stay! The only negative was the elevator situation was a mess, as there was always one not working. That required a bit of patience but obviously out of the condo owners control and for sure did not take away from the great time we had. Would definitely stay again!
The condo was clean but really old and had uncomfortable furniture and beds. We also had to go to the sore immediately because there was absolutely nothing in the unit. There was a half of roll of TP in each bathroom, no trash bags, one dishwasher tablet......The building overall was terrible. It is a 23 story building and not enough elevators or amenities to accommodate that many people. The unit we stayed in was on the 22nd floor . It took an average of 15-20 minutes to ride the elevator. Sometimes the line for an elevator was 20 people deep and of course it stopped on every floor. The pictures of the pool look fantastic. We were never able to get a chair or spot by the pool because there were all taken by 9:00 am. It also cost $45 a day to rent an umbrella.
The condo has a great view, and we saw dolphins everyday while we were there. The queen size bed is comfortable and the water pressure is great. Pineapple Willy's is next door with great food and service, which is very convenient to the condo. The pool was great as well. Plenty of stuff to do for kids near by.
We had a great time at Shores of Panama. The only problem was the elevators which seemed to be the main problem with every guest & being on the 22nd floor we couldn't just take the stairs. But the weather was perfect. The decor was a little dated in the condo but we weren't in it much so it didn't matter too much to us.
The Shores of Panama is simply the best location if you wish to be 'on the beach' in Panama City Beach! The new Northwest Florida International Airport (ECP) is just 15 minutes away. The beach is extra wide/deep in front of the Shores of Panama and there is an unlimited amount of recreational activities and restaurant in the immediate surrounding area.
The most unique benefit of staying at the Shores of Panama compared to any other condo building near the beach is that it offers 'resort like' amenities and is located directly on the beach. Besides having one of the largest outdoor pools in the area, there is also entertainment on the pool side stage, movies for kids on the beach, and a full service spa on site. The Shores has parking attached to the building (no skywalks). World famous Pineapple Willy's / Pier Bar are right next door offering live music and a sports lounge.
