About this property

Perfect for Couple's Getaway or Small Family

Please note, we only rent to families and have a minimum age requirement of 25. We do not rent to student groups. Though we appreciate your interest, there are no exceptions to this policy. During certain times of the year, a 7 day minimum stay is required.


Relax and unwind just a few steps away from the most beautiful beaches in the world. Our property is located in Laguna Beach, on the quiet west end of Panama City Beach. It is directly across from the beach in an old residential area that gives you an idea of what the beach was like before the big high-rise condos.

Our beach property consists of a main duplex cottage plus a guest house. This listing is for the Guest House that is located behind the main cottage.

The Guest House has 1 bedroom with a queen size bed and a converted walk-in closet that contains 2 single size bunk beds ideal for 2 children but big enough for adults. The living room has a queen size sleeper sofa. There is a full kitchen and a bathroom with a stall shower. In addition, there is an enclosed outside shower to rinse off after your fun day on the beach. There are two mini-split AC units that keep the rooms nice and cool in the summer.

This property is directly across the street from County Beach Access boardwalk # 83. In just a few steps, you will be on the beach in less than 2 minutes. Our cottage is conveniently located about 4 miles west of Pier Park outdoor shopping complex. Thomas' Donuts and the local Carousel grocery store are an easy 2-minute drive. Wal-Mart, Target, Winn-Dixie and Publix grocery stores are also close by. Restaurants to suit any taste are nearby. Panama City Beach has many fun attractions such as Shipwreck Island water park, Gulf World, Wonder Works, Ripley's, snorkeling, parasailing, go-carts, putt-putt golf and lots more for your family to enjoy. There are also two state parks within a few minutes’ drive.

The Frank Brown Baseball/Softball Complex is only 4 miles away and Laguna Beach Christian Retreat is less than 1/2 mile from the property.

If you are traveling with multiple groups and need space for more people, you may also check for the availability of the main duplex cottage listed separately under property ID's # 454143 and # 1088711.

Perfect for me and my teens!

The price and location cannot be beat! Not really walkable to anywhere but the beach, but that was fine for us. Tight quarters, but again… price and location to the beach!!!! Go to Thomas’ donuts! (Be ready for a line but it’s worth it!)

Steps to the beach!

This property was a small guest house in the quieter end of laguna beach area and was perfect for a quick getaway with my spouse. We had no complaints at all and the beach was literally right across the street. Plenty of shopping and restaurants close by. Our host was responsive and easy to check in with. Plenty of room and all the necessities were there. Things to note. As mentioned in the home description, the bunk beds are in what used to be a closet and there is just room for the beds. Perfect for a couple that wants their small children in the same room with them. But there is no partition between bedroom and bunk area. Would definitely stay here again!

Week bday gift

Very convenient to the beach, wasn’t expecting beach toys being in a closet so our kiddos loved that. I liked being away from the hustle and bustle of town. Loved the grocery store near by. Could have been cleaner. Bring dish washing soap, paper towels and toilet paper. Laundry room works just no money put into it. For the prices and amazing location and the owner-this is very well worth it.

Small & Sweet

A nice, small getaway for a couple looking to leave real life behind even for just a short a while. The general location is a definite winner in a beautiful residential area directly across the street from the gorgeous & relaxing white sands of Laguna beach.

What you see is what you get

The location is wonderful! The close access to the beach was very convenient. The cottage is exactly what is to be expected from description and pictures- small and dated. Communication with the owner was easy and fast.

Only had 1 issue when the door would not open for us on our last night.

Cute guest house, it was perfect for us, a place to sleep and shower. The love seat was dirty and stained so we just put luggage on it and didn't sit on it but I sent a message right away so the owner knew it wasn't from us, he said he was aware. On our last night the keypad door lock wouldn't work and we couldn't get it, luckily someone before us had left a window unlocked and that was the only way to get inside. We communicated with John right away so he was aware and was trying to help us figure out how to get insdie.

About the host

Hosted by John French

Host profile image
As children we vacationed here with our families and have always wanted to own a vacation home in Panama City. We were hooked on this property the first time we saw it. We loved the classic look and feel of the home and the fact that it is directly across the street from a public beach access walkway made this the perfect choice for us.

Why they chose this property

Did I say this property is directly across from the beach? Our cottage is located in an old residential beach area so you don't have the crowds that come with the large condos, however we are a 5 minute drive from Pier Park, the hottest new area in PC with shopping, restaurants, a movie theater, amusement rides, live entertainment, and of course the huge County pier for those who like to fish.
