Enjoy the spectacular view from the 22nd floor at Emerald Isle-with BEACH CHAIRS
Come enjoy the view from the 22nd floor in Panama City Beach. Watching the marine life from your vantage point on the over-sized balcony will be one of your favorite activities. Balcony seating was updated in June, 2022. Beach front BEACH CHAIRS and UMBRELLAS for two are included in the rental rate!!!! The condo is well appointed with a king size bed in the master as well as a king size bed in the guest room. Flooring was replaced in 2025, removing the tile/ carpet flooring in the living, dining, bedrooms and kitchen with LVP. There is a queen size sleeper sofa in the living area that is perfect for the kids or a 3rd couple. New in 2024, the master bathroom has a walk in shower. Also new in 2024, the guest bath has a jetted tub/shower combination. The guest bath can be accessed from the living area as well. Bathroom vanities were updated in 2024 and we now have multiple drawers for your toiletries. The condo has free Wi-Fi, flat screen smart televisions and DVD players in both bedrooms and the living area. The kitchen is fully furnished with everything you need to create a gourmet meal or a simple snack for the beach. Brand new stainless steel appliances were added in June, 2022.

On site, you'll find two pools; one is heated and partial covered. There is a hot tub in the pool area, a steam room, sauna and exercise room.

I cannot recommend this listing enough! Everything was perfect for our stay. The kitchen was well stocked, the space was incredibly clean, the beds were comfortable, and it was spacious and inviting. One of the reasons we booked this condo was because of the balcony and it did not disappoint! We enjoyed watching the wildlife from the balcony and listening to the sounds of the ocean. The facilities were clean, the reserved parking space was amazing, and the elevators were surprisingly quick!When we did have an issue with the washer, Janet was very responsive and helpful! We really loved staying here and will be back!

Breathtaking views
This condo was all that was advertised and more! The condo was nice and clean. Kitchen was well equipped. Great water pressure. Washer and dryer worked well. Parking spot was very close to elevators. We enjoyed the beach chair service. The pool area was spotless. The view from the balcony was spectacular! We enjoyed breakfast on the balcony every morning. Everyone that we came in contact was very helpful and polite. We will definitely book with Ed and Janet again.

A Great Week!
We had a great time here! The condo is clean and exactly what we needed for a family of 4. We had all we needed to cook and extra items to make our beach outings more fun/convenient. The cart was especially handy for trips downstairs.
Communication with Janet was quick and easy. There was a minor hiccup with check in and she was fast to respond and correct. She also jumped in to help when we thought we had a washer issue (it ended up being fine).
The view is spectacular from the balcony and made for an excellent breakfast spot every morning. We will look to book again in the future.
Thanks, Janet!

Perfect Little Beach Getaway
Janet was a fabulous host and the condo was perfect for our family of four. We had everything we needed, and even more with the extra baskets of goodies in each bathroom. She had everything we needed for check-in and responded promptly to any questions we had. The condo was clean and had the best view of the ocean! We hope to be back soon!
Highly recommend this Unit! Has everything been you'll need and more. Facility staff was wonderful from security to managers to beach attendants. MOST IMPORTANTLY the host was Fantastic. They answered any and all questions through the whole process faster and more thoroughly than any stay ive used before. We were able to call this place our home for 10 days, its spacious, well maintained, fully equipped

We returned for a second time & were not disappointed!
This condo has become our “go-to” destination! We returned because we were so favorably impressed and we’re so glad we did! From the super easy check in, to the fresh cleanliness, to the thoughtful hospitality… we couldn’t ask for more! Gorgeous view and convenient location made this the condo that we will be returning to, over and over.

Wonderful Place just outside the busy area
We really enjoyed the place. Located just a couple minutes away from the busy area of PCB which I appreciated. Having a dedicated parking spot was nice to have (beware its tight)! Very clean upon arrival. Check-in was easy and almost non-existent. The coded door lock allows for entry directly to the unit to find parking tag and arm bands. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen well supplied with newer appliances. Local cable TVs available along with smart TVs if you wish. The view from the balcony was great. Ate breakfast from there everyday (even the rainy day). The washer and dryer were nice to have. The central closet had a number of beach items to use though we brought our own.
I have a few negatives but not enough that would prevent me from rebooking at this location in a heartbeat. First, we ran out of toilet paper and had to run out to buy more. Each bathroom had a partial roll with one additional upon arrival. By day 4 we were out. Only one additional trash bag for the kitchen trash can was provided. Next, we never really got hot water at the kitchen sink despite running the water for some time. Slightly warm was as good as we could get. The bathrooms had hot water without issue. Finally, the dryer did not dry things through a single cycle. It took two. When cleaning the lint trap it appeared that maybe the exhaust tubes need to be cleaned of lint buildup which may be preventing good air flow.
If we decided to visit PCD again, we will consider this location again! Thanks!

Best yet
My family has been staying at Emerald Isle for the past 11yrs.. We have stayed in multiple different condos over the years and this by far is the best condo we've rented. It was spotlessly clean and had newer appliances. The owners had everything prepared and waiting as far as wristbands, parking pass etc.. We will be back again. Thanks for the great vacation.
