We are so grateful for this condo! The weather was less than great the week we were there. But the condo was so comfortable that we didn’t mind staying inside part of the time. We had a great time playing games with our kids. The patio was amazing beds were great and it wa soo clean! Whoever cleans for them needs a pay raise! Lol I’ve stayed at many Vrbo’s. It was by far the cleanest. The managers were amazing going above and beyond! If I go back to pcb I will definitely book this condo again.
The 180 degree wraparound balcony with views of both the ocean and city is what makes this a unique and amazing place to stay! This is on the quieter end of the beach so perfect for families that want to avoid all the large crowds and partying. It is on the 16th floor but we never waited more than a minute for the elevator. Check-in was easy - we did have the wrong code for the door but we called and they got it all worked out in a jiffy. The place was very clean, well-maintained, with nice modern decor. The only issue we had is the TV in the master bedroom didn’t work. I notified the host and it wasn’t resolved during our stay but hopefully it was fixed afterward. It wasn’t a big deal to us, but if it is to you, you may want to inquire before booking. Lots to do and eat in the area - most of it isn’t exactly walking distance, but only a very short drive. We LOVED Gypsea Crepes and stopped there every day! Parking was free and there were always open spots. The beach is amazing- soft white sand, lots of shells. There’s a little tiki bar by the heated pool, a little on the pricy side but the workers were very friendly. The host was very responsive. Overall, I would highly recommend!
Excellent accommodations, clean, modern, and well maintained. Management team were great communicators and the condo was as described. I would not hesitate to rebook.
Had a wonderful stay with my family and would definitely book again. Pool, beach, chair service and Tiki bar was all great and the building was well maintained. Location was perfect for us, close to St. Andrew's state park and the marinas.
The condo was clean, beds were comfortable, and the deck was the perfect spot to sit and relax to watch the sunset every night.
We were reluctant to book in Panama City, as we usually stay in Destin or Ft. Walton area, we aren't fans of crowds. To our surprise North Panama City was perfect. The condo itself was great, it was certainly home away from home, it was clean and comfortable.
Very well appointed, updated condo. The check-in and check-out process was the best we have experienced yet. The property managers were very attentive to our needs.
This property was just what we needed! It was exactly as advertised! Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

Condo was fabulous!
Thank you for the most wonderful vacation stay we have experienced with VRBO. Do not get me wrong, we have stayed at other places and liked them as well, but the WaterCrest Property ID 704528 was the absolute gorgeous, well equipped condo we have ever stayed in. Best home away from home ever!

AMAZING!!!
Property Owners were amazing! Condo is gorgeous! We will be back!
We stayed 5 nights, the condo is luxurious and beautiful. The online pictures don’t do it justice. The views from the gigantic balcony are fantastic. There are several great restaurants and supermarkets close by. We normally stay in Destin but we were pleasantly surprised by the reduction in the volume of traffic. There is also a really cool state park and 2 fishing piers nearby. We would love to return and Sherry, David and Chase were polite, accessible and accommodating. Can’t wait to return, cheers, Tom, Donna and Kyle
This beautiful condo was exceptional. It was immaculately clean and well kept. The view from the wrap around balcony is spectacular! The bed linens and the bath towels are exceptional quality and were supplied geneously. From the kitchen utensils, the appliances and toiletries, nothing was less than superb. Sherry and Chase were both quick to respond and very attentive. I highly recommend this condo for anyone interested in experiencing a exceptional stay at Panama City Beach!

Great Beachfront rental
The room was great w at was a huge balcony. Amazing views and plenty if room for family and friends. The only disappointment was that customer service was terrible. The person on the other side of the phone had a bad attitude and did not have good manners. So disappointed and definitely made our stay a little less pleasant. Overall, great place.
Property was phenomenal and up to date. Great views, very clean, just perfect. Only issue was there was no remote for DVD player. So, Netflix and the Redbox movies we rented weren’t an option. I emailed asking about it but didn’t hear back. Overall I would highly recommend and we will be back!
This condo had everything we needed to enjoy our stay on the beach. We cooked dinner once while we were there and found the kitchen to be fully stocked. The included concierge beach chairs and umbrellas were a huge bonus each day! We spotted dolphins and rays from the balcony while enjoying coffee in the mornings. Very clean and the use of the washer/ dryer was a plus. Being able to walk to Schooners for lunch, or come up quickly from the beach to restock cooler made for a super easy lunch transition. Our family enjoyed the refreshing pool
And hot tub area as well. The owner was quick and responsive when we had trouble figuring out the door code. Thank you so much for loaning us your special
Space for our vacation!

Schools out for summer!
This is a beautiful corner high in the sky condo. My family was awed when we arrived at the decor and attention to the details. I was awed by the views and comfort. All of the furnishing were extremely comfortable and my kids loved having their own balcony to hang out on. We own a condo in Crescent Beach and are extremely particular about other condos that we will stay in. This one did not disappoint. In fact, I am taking a few decorating ideas with me. Thank you for accommodating our special needs. My kids are already wanting to know when we can go back.
This place was everything it advertised! The location is great, right on the beach, and a short drive away from many local attractions. The views from the balcony were amazing. There was plenty of space for our group of 4. Groups of 8 may not feel the same, as the common area might get a little cozy, but for us it was perfect. The beds are really comfortable. The pool and hot tub were awesome to relax in/by. The security guard patrolling the area was very friendly and not overly enforcing all of the rules that were written (she still wanted people to have a good time while not getting too out of hand). The ice maker in the freezer is not fast enough to keep up, so keep that in mind. There were also only 4 rolls of toilet paper for our entire stay, so you will have to purchase extras. The kitchen comes with everything you need to cook (there are even some spare spices in the cupboard). Overall this place was great and we'd definitely stay here again!
As a rental property owner myself I was extremely Pleased with the cleanliness of this condo! I wiped down everything upon My arrival just to take extra precautions with Covid and didn’t find any areas that had not been cleaned. Only negative comment I have for this rental is that a bar is missing on the outdoor patio. With this being on the 16th floor and having small children it was extremely alarming. There was enough of a gap for me to even go through it. So we couldn’t allow the kids to go outside.
Other than that property owners were great and responded extremely fast! Overall I would 100% recommend and stay at this location again. The views were unreal!!!!

Beautiful condo, be sure to take inventory
The condo was beautiful and on the quiet side of Panama City beach. We attended the jazz festival and the condo was the perfect place to get away from it all. My coworkers and I truly enjoyed Jim, who will get you set up quite nicely with umbrellas and chairs. Be sure to do a thorough walk through upon arrival. We did a walk through, however did not take inventory of how many sheets were on each bed. Go figure! Murray advised me afterwards that there was a missing flat sheet from our bedroom. However, sheets were not taken and I believe it was a mistake or not checked from last renters. No worries, as this does not take away from how beautiful the condo is and how much we enjoyed our stay.
