The open-concept area on the beachside has your fully equipped kitchen, living room and dining area offering a completely furnished walkout balcony overlooking the pristine coastline. With an additional outdoor dining table (with seating for 6), this spot was meant for wining and dining in the sunset!

The Beach is your backyard! "Soul Surfer" has a boardwalk that leads straight to the beach.

Enjoyable stay, with a few issues
Overall, our stay was enjoyable. We did have a few issues that were communicated to the property managers but never resolved. The mini-split AC units on the first floor did not work, and the lights in the pool did not work. Management ensured us the issues would be fixed, but they were never repaired during our 7 day stay.

Just what we needed
We experienced a sudden death of a family member 4 months before our stay and this trip was so good for us. We were able to enjoy time together in this beautiful house and enjoy the amenities. The entire group enjoyed every aspect of our stay. This time together was an answer to prayer.

TV choice big disappointment
Cannot believe we could not get network stations on the television. Almost missed the Georgia/Alabama SEC Championship game on CBS. Fortunately we have kids who were able to hot wire into TV and hack into CBS on a laptop. Fought with the TV choices all week.

The best stay! Will definitely be back
We had an amazing stay here during fall break. 8 adults + 8 kids (ages 1-6) and it was surprisingly more spacious than expected. Every family got 2 bedrooms so we never felt cramped. We did have to get a thing or two fixed but it was promptly fixed. Communication was 10/10. You can’t beat having a private pool right on the beach. We will definitely be back again!!

We had 5 families staying at the “Surf Shack”. It was perfect! Clean, great location that was close enough to fun but not in the middle of chaos for Panama City Beach. Would definitely recommend this property.

Great house and Location
Distance to beach could not be better. We have stayed at a lot of houses over the years and all of us agreed that this was the best. One thing outside of the norm we kept saying was how cool the house stayed… comfortable sleeping, even on the top floors.

Surf Shack
We had a wonderful beach vacation with friends for a 40th birthday. It was so much fun to have the beach at a finger tips, so many games to choose from and a pool if you want to soak in it. Everything worked well in the house and it was so nice that almost every room had their own bathroom.

Seabreeze Jazz Party
Property was AMAZING! There were a few problems though. The garage door was off track. After several calls, it was still broken a week later when we checked out. CLEANING: We had to clean the kitchen and a couple of bathrooms again. I've never seen so much blond and light brown hair. The utensil drawers were dirty with crumbs and hair. My bathroom was not clean, especially the floor (dust, hair, baby spiders which I had to spray). My cousin lost his glasses. We looked under the sectional in living room and found crumbs, cookies, sandwich ends, tissues, etc. People pay too much for this property to have such very, very, very cheap supplies. Only 1 roll of paper towels, 1 dishwasher pod, 1 roll of toilet paper (should have at least 2 rolls in each bathroom) and dish soap. There were no dish cloths in kitchen which was unusual to us. We have rented property in other locations that were cheaper and had better supplies and clean. Has the owner ever thought about an elavator/lift? Our group range in age 50-70 and had a little trouble with all the stairs. Overall, we had good stay and enjoyed the property. The decor was done well!

Good location
This is a great beach house with great views, looks like was recently built. The top bedroom was awesome. There were few things that needed to some attention, in one of the bathrooms the shower was leaking. There were two sets of Washer and dryer and one of the dryers weren't working. There were no batteries in some of the remotes. But overall its a great beach house.

Perfect Week
There was 14 ladies for this amazing trip. It was a much needed business/vacation for all of us. The house is amazing. We all had our own bed and many had their own bathroom. The house is decorated with very nice quality furniture and fabrics. The kitchen had everything we needed. Even pretty good knives and pots and pans. I was impressed. The view each day and evening was spectacular. Everyone of us wants to return to this house next year. The location was great. Everything we needed from a nearby Publix to great restaurants were within a few miles. I highly recommend this house and rental company.

Great location! Beautiful house!
Location and the house were great. Being a superhost myself, I wish the company would provide more than 1 dishwasher pod, 1 laundry detergent pod, 1 roll of paper towels for a house that costs over $10k for a week. They were upfront about it in their contract, but little details matter too so the place doesn’t have the same feel as privately operated VRBO. Other than that nice place! Had a nice time.
