We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our mini family reunion. This home gets a 10 out of 10 for us. The hosts were awesome. They brought us extra towels even when they had already provided more then enough. The house also came with extra queen air mattress which wasnt even list on details and definitely made sleeping arrangements better then expected. This could not have been in a more perfect location, it is close to all the attractions but not in the middle of it so it was still peaceful. Sitting and hanging out on the deck and BBQing was great for the adults while all the kids played board and card games provided by Lisa and Robert. Plus added bonus was the in house, washer and dryer, so we didn't have to go home with dirty clothesAfter this vrbo I wouldn't even consider staying in another location for Panama City Beach 100% had everything

Property is real close to St Andrew’s park, which is our favorite place in Panama City. You get the top floor to yourself and park in the driveway. The owners live in the bottom floor. There was a night when the AC went out, but the owners had it fixed within a couple of hours the next day…excellent service. The pull out couch does block the front door when used as a bed and is not comfortable, but I have yet to find one that is.Everything was clean and well described in the listing.

Me and a group of friends came to this property for our college spring break. The owners were easy to contact and overall lovely. The one thing i’d say is that none of the doors have locks on them including the bathroom. That wasn’t a big deal but being a college friend group we were worried that we would walk in on eachother while people were using the bathrooms. I’m sure that wouldn’t be an issue for a family with young children though. Other than that we had a lovely stay and are very appreciative of the hosts for giving us the benefit of the doubt considering our age and we had the best spring break!

Family Vacation

We booked for the first tome and loved it. Lisa and her husband were excellent as hosts! We will definitely be staying here again on our next vacation. We loved the space and privacy. The full kitchen with stainless steel appliances was great and the decor was very nice. Loved that they had a grill for us to use. Loved this place for sure!!

Great family gateway!!!

I really enjoyed yeah OK this place. There were hardwood floors, three bedrooms and kitchen and the living room. What was cool about this place that had two bathrooms, a washer and dryer. In the mornings, I will go for a walk in the neighborhood and I will end up at the beach. It was fun and we brought our little dog with us too.

Great little hideaway!

This property is nice hidden gem! Just a short walk to the beach and right down the street from all fun spots. The rental is located right above the owner’s residence but that should not effect your decision to choose this property. The owner is super friendly and very accommodating. We plan on booking again when we get back in town for work. Thank you again Lisa for a wonderful trip (even though we were traveling for work and not pleasure).

Perfect in every way

Location and house were perfect for our family. We loved sitting out on the deck of an evening swinging in the hammock listening to music and chatting away. We walked to the beach and drove sometimes. Either way it’s fast getting your feet in the sand. Lisa couldn’t be anymore accommodating, and really sweet. Our family agreed this is our new go to place when traveling to Panama Beach. Thank you for an amazing vacation and hospitality

Close to beach areas!

It was an overall good experience, the location it's close to St. Andrew's State Park where we spent most of our time with family. Its also 5 minutes or less from public beach access. The property is located in a nice neighborhood. The amenities provided were good and working properly. The cleanliness could be better, the kitchen and living room floors felt dirty and sticky. Stove top was also dusty and had pet hair on it. The rest of the house was great and clean. The host were super friendly and helpful, they were always available. They helped me out with some tools to put together a beach wagon we purchased there!
