Nice Stay
Our family really enjoyed our stay during July 4th. There were seven of us. The only advise I would give is to put a queen bed in one of the bedrooms instead of a double and twin bed. As with our family, we had four adults and a double bed is really too small for two adults. Otherwise, the property was wonderful.

The condo was beautifully decorated, fully equipped and very clean. Beds are comfortable. The view is superb! Just as the pictures show. Walk out the door and you are on the beach. Good location, not a crowded beach. Great communication from both Charlotte and the housekeeper!!!I will definitely stay here again.

Right to the water
Beach right out the back door. Perfect set up in the unit. It is also far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The units are very close together and there were some rude young men two decks down using bad language but it didn’t last long. Very good stay!!

Great location!
What an amazing property! This townhome had everything that we needed (and more) to make our one week out of the year at the beach an amazing one! The fact that the beach was only a few steps away from our deck was the whole reason we stayed here and it did not disappoint. What I didn't anticipate was how beautiful the nights on the beach would be, wow. My parents came down for a few days and cooked crab legs and shrimp, which we were able to eat out on the deck while enjoying the sunset. Great location! Great and responsive host!

Nice Vacation spot!
The beach house was very nice. Our family of 5 along with both Grandparents were more than comfortable. We would definitely considering renting again. We've been to Panama City Beach before and know how beautiful the water can be, unfortunately storms messed with the water this year. We had an amazing time. 30 sec walk and your feet are in the water. My biggest complaint would have to be it was very busy being right next to a Public Beach Access.

This was a good selection
There are a lot of choices in the PCB area
This was a very good choice for our family
All went well, was clean and comfortable and the best part is being right on the sand
Good host and no problems
This is more of a 4.5 star stay
(Vrbo - should provide the ability for half stars)
Would not hesitate to stay here again

Charlotte was wonderful to work with and we will definitely try to book one of her properties for future vacations. The location and house was perfect for our stay. We do not like a crowded beach and on some days we felt like we had the beach all to ourselves. The house had everything we needed. We had clear water and beautiful weather all week. Can’t wait to come back!
