Fun family time, 5 out of 5 stars!

We enjoyed the stay and would like to come back for sure. This condo was right on the beach, well appointed, very clean, and a great location in PCB. We especially enjoyed the very large balcony with beautiful sunset views and comfortable furniture. Would recommend this to anyone with a large group or family for a great stay, with 3 huge king beds, fold out sofa, kid bunks and twin... and good showers!

Great Stay!

This condo is in a great location. It was clean, decorated well and had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. I was worried that the wait would be long for the elevators, but even with staying on the 16th floor we had no problems at all. I would recommend this condo!

Perfect escape for our family.

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was a little off the beaten path, just as we like it. Our condo was very clean and comfortable. The elevators went down for a little bit, however, it only took a simple text to get them both back up and running. Werecommend

Very Spacious and Clean Property.

Property was clean and Spacious. Our favorite place was the balcony because it was very large and spacious and included an outdoor dining table as well as a sofa area. The view was great and we got to see a variety of sea animals from the balcony. I would love to stay here again next time we travel to PCB .

40s celebration @ PCB

Loved the size, cleanliness and decor of our condo!! Balcony has THE BEST VIEW! Owner was awesome at communicating. Only downside is parking garage. We rented a Toyota Prius bc parking garage is teeny tiny (which we were notified beforehand) but scraped the bottom of the car everytime we had to leave.

Very nice condo!

The condo was so nice and had plenty of space for all of us. My only complaint is the parking. Only 1 space in the garage and over flow parking was always full, so we paid to park in the city parking across the road and had a decent walk over to the condo. Other than that I really enjoyed our stay! Very clean and beautiful balcony! Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

1603 West Corner

We had a couple of maintenance issues when we arrived which were immediately addressed and remedied. The parking situation was a little inconvenient since we had to bring 3 cars and had only 1 assigned spot but we were able to use the overflow lot on most occasions - I think we had to use the public pay lot 3 times. Shopping, dining and entertainment were all close by.

Family Vacation

I enjoyed my stay here at the Ocean Resort at Panama City Beach. I have been bringing my kids and grandkids here every year and this is the best one i have ever stayed at. Plenty of room on the extended balcony 4 spacious br with 4 baths. Plenty of family room on the inside and tv’s in every room. Water stayed hot when we took baths at the same time toys for the kids to take to the beach. Plenty of different card games for adults and kids. the only downfall was the parking we had 3 vehicles but only one can park in parking deck and so we paid for parking daily. Some one was in my park the last night i stayed but hotel reimbursed for having to park in paid parking.. So overall i give this a five star rating..

Best vacation!

We had the best time. Everything was clean. There were plenty of kitchen items to cook your meals, toys to use at the beach. Our only complaint would be the ice machine wasn’t working as fast as we wanted it to. The balcony was one of my selling points for this condo. We were able to eat out there at the large kitchen table and also sit in the sitting area to visit. These things aren’t always easy with our large party. Thank you for making our vacation one for the books!!

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The condo was clean, the beds were comfortable, the balcony and its view was amazing. Parking is adequate, with a spot in the lower garage and then overflow across the road on a first-come, first-serve basis. Additional public parking is available for a fee behind the condo's overflow. The condo facilities were in pretty good shape, overall, and we had a great time with the whole family staying here. The only downside was the dishwasher was broken and they weren't able to get it fixed during our stay - had to handwash the dishes. The property managers were responsive... there were a few minor things (other than the dishwasher) that were not working, but did not distract from our trip. The TV has limited cable channels and Roku streaming. The Wifi worked fine.

Beautiful Condo

The condo was clean and well decorated. It is very roomy and comfortable. One of the king beds did not seem very sturdy, but ok for a small child. The view was stunning and the balcony was very nice! Parking was a big issues. The garage has very steep ramps that scraped the under carriage of our van bad enough that we sought alternative parking that we had to pay for. The location of the pool is far from ideal as the view on one side is the parking garage. Over all we had a great time.

Mixed review

Parking is awful which we knew it would be, just didn't realize how awful it would be. City parking is $2 an hour with a max of $8 a day or you can do $84 for the week. However they do not monitor the parking so you can pay for the whole week and get back from eating out and not have a parking spot. There were nights we had to drive around the lot for up to 45 minutes waiting on a spot to open up. We waited til 5 before we could check in because it was still being cleaned, our towels, washcloths etc were still not cleaned. Some were in the washing machine, some in the dryer and the rest were thrown on the counter for us to fold ourselves. They did not leave any toilet paper, paper towels or garbage bags and I had to call the next day to get them. Also didn't leave enough arm bands for the amount of people that were on our reservation. However as soon as we reached out to the property they came over and brought us everything within an hour. We had several issues with cleanliness in one of our rooms but the rest of the condo was clean and great! This place is wonderful for a large family. We had 9 adults and 2 children under 2 and we were all comfortable. The elevators were only an issue for us twice. Which was when we were checking in because of the amount of people checking in and people coming in from off the beach, and one night because only one of them was working. Besides that they are extremely fast and get you where you need to go.
