My husband and I spent the month of February at Sandy Palms and are hoping to do it again next year. It was like a home away from home. Would definitely recommend this rental.

Our stay was amazing!

The home was even more beautiful in person! It was very clean, and had everything we needed. It's in a lovely neighborhood, and just a couple minutes walk from the beach and pier. The pool was great. The kids loved it. The hosts were so friendly and quick to respond. They also gave us a heads up anytime the pool cleaners, maintenance, etc.were going to be stopping by, which was nice. I would highly recommend and we will definitely be staying here again.

Family Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay. It was very close to the beach. The golf cart was a bonus, but not really needed. The pool was perfect for the kids and those that weren't crazy about hanging on the beach all day. The king bed downstairs needs a new matress. The garbage disposal doesn't work. These were minor issues. The check in process was the easiest ive ever dealt with. Would defiantly recommend.

Awesome House

Location was great. No through traffic on road. Beach access within walking distance, less than 5 minutes to beach. Private pool was well kept and backyard area was very nice. Interior of house was immaculate. Lots of extra beach gear available for use which was a surprise and we were thankful! Would live to have had access to the golf cart in the garage but looked back at the listing and it is available starting with June 1st rentals which will be a game changer for getting to the beach with all your gear. Great decision to include the golf cart. Would recommend and book again!

Betsy, its always upsetting when a guest leaves a retaliatory review on a home. We scheduled a maintenance appointment with you the first night you arrived, and no one came to the door. I called several times and you did not answer. The things that you mention that didn't work were a simple GFCI button that could have been pushed. Upon the morning of check out, your group refused to leave and again no one would answer our calls, we found that folks were standing in the garage smoking and when I provided concerning feedback, you were upset and left this review. So very disappointing. I hope you choose to respect your next host.

Family Christmas

The home was true to its pictures, and I was very happy about that. The place was comfy and cozy. The mattress in the upstairs master was heavenly. My kids said their mattresses were good as well. The grands loved the pool and hot tub. We did not get to go to the beach our last day due to the raining, wish we had a few more days. Maybe next time. There were a few issues (the kitchen faucet handle kept coming off, the 1/2 bath toilet tissue holder came off the wall, the upstairs banister looks to be coming loose, all appear to need a screw or tightening up, and there is a hole behind the door of the upstairs bedroom with the balcony). Yes, we will recommend to others and plan to come again. This was my first-time renting. I read some of the reviews on many homes before picking this one and they were horror stories. So, I was VERY happy with your home. Thanks!!!!

A true and honest review

At first glance everything seemed perfect. First night the bottom floor toilets wouldn’t flush. Discovered the septic tank spilling over in side yard. Contacted Mgnt at 11:17pm. Someone was sent out to check it next day. Second night the 2nd floor a/c cut off after 10pm because of a clogged drain pipe. Someone came next day to clear it. 3rd day discovered that the dryer was not drying after running for hours. So as not to have to call Mgnt again we climbed back there to check the vent hose, which dumped a huge pile of sand onto the floor when we pulled it off. Send message to Mgnt to inform and they promised a $100 credit for our troubles, which was never given. 4th day, we were told that we could not use the hot tub, even though it is part of the listing and was already half filled with water when we arrived. Only thing indicating it wasn’t available was a sign stuck to the hot tub with tape. So, for those of you viewing this listing, the seasonal use is only after Sept 1!! 6th day, the pool pump went out and was screaming unbearably loud thru the walls of the bottom floor room. Contacted Mgnt and they sent someone out to change it, which took 2 days because he had to come back the following day with the pump. So, we basically spent our vacation with the maintenance man. The only perk of this place is that we never ran out of hot water!! PS - this is NOT a 5 bedroom house. There is no king size bed in the room with a desk (listing says king, photos say queen).

We appreciate your feedback and regret that your experience at our property did not meet your expectations. As a family-owned and operated business, we take every guest's comfort and satisfaction very seriously, and we aim to resolve any issues promptly and professionally. We understand the inconvenience caused by the maintenance issues that arose during your stay and apologize sincerely. Our records show that each issue was responded to and resolved as quickly as possible, often the next day. This quick response time is typically appreciated by our guests, especially when it involves after-hours communication. Regarding the hot tub, we provide clear information in our house rules, rental agreement, and several sections of our listing about its seasonal usage. We also provide additional reminders onsite, like the sign on the hot tub. Your decision to use it regardless of these notices led to additional maintenance needs and costs. As for the $100 credit, it was initially offered in good faith, but we had to rescind it due to violation of the house rules, specifically regarding the hot tub usage. As for the confusion regarding the number of bedrooms, our property is advertised as four bedrooms with an additional triple bunk area. We strive for transparency in our listing and believe the photos and descriptions accurately depict the property. We are disheartened to learn about the conduct towards our maintenance staff and the condition in which our property was left. Mutual respect and understanding are crucial elements in ensuring a positive experience for both our guests and staff. We value all our guests and the feedback they provide. We hope that in the future, communications can be more respectful and understanding, in order to effectively resolve any issues that may arise. Best, Getaways Family

Awesome house!

This was my friend group’s first time in Panama City, and it couldn’t have gone better. Mike was very commutative and I would get an answer to any question or potential repair need promptly. Having a heated pool was great this early in spring, especially with the high winds and harsh sea making it impossible to actually get in the ocean. We were walking distance from some great restaurants and not even a mile from Publix if you need groceries or anything. Highly recommend!

This house saved our vacation

You know how it goes. You make arrangements for a nice vacation months in advance and then the weather doesn't cooperate. If we'd stayed in another house, our vacation may have been ruined. But lucky for us, we stayed in this house and had a great time. Our family of five had lots of room to spread out and we had everything we needed--from kitchen supplies to hand soap to laundry soap to toilet paper. The pool was nice and warm, so even on the cloudy days (so many cloudy days) we could take a swim before sinking into the hot tub. Can I recommend you skip the big trip to Publix and just let someone deliver your groceries? Doing that saved us time and let us meet some really nice people. Location is great. We were able to walk to the Shrimp Basket for our traditional fried food dinner. I was able to take some little runs. Our little dog enjoyed her walks although there are burrs everywhere if you leave the pavement. Your dog might prefer booties if you have any. Homeowners were very nice to work with and quickly responded every time we had to contact them. Thank you for that and everything else, Mike and Misty.

October 2021 family beach trip

We had a 5 day stay at this property with adults and kids (6 years to 6 months). This is a newer property and was very clean and well stocked. All that we had to bring was our food and drinks. Short walk to beach and the garage has lots of wagons, chairs, floats and beach toys for the pool and beach. The kids really enjoyed the pool and the adults enjoyed the hot tub. The Host was quick to respond and solve the few small issues that came up. Parking was cramped but we managed to park 3 vehicles. This was our first time renting a beach house and overall it was a great experience.
