Watercrest Condominiums just completed a 4.5 million dollar renovation and the entire complex is fresh and new including the beautiful entrance with amazing water feature to the pool deck where all the outdoor furnishings are new.

There are 27 miles of beach in this Northwest Florida paradise and Watercrest is one of the most beautiful well maintained condos in the area. We love this East end of the beach because the traffic is so much lighter than in other areas. Also, parking is easy at Watercrest and the elevators are fast. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy the on site amenities such as the tennis and shuffleboard courts, heated pool, hot tub, kiddie pool, indoor racketball court and exercise room.

Attraction Information:

At the East end of the beach you have the waterfront headquarters that is home to legendary fishing fleets, pirates, pontoon boats, kayaks, jet skis, dive boats, and Florida's most visited state park not to mention the best golf courses in NW Florida, and the beautiful uninhabited Shell Island. You can also go tubing or parasailing, diving and snorkeling. Or play a round of miniature golf with the family before you ride the go-carts. It's all right here and much more. The marina is only a couple miles away where you can charter a deep sea fishing trip, Sunset Cruise, Pirate Cruise, or Shell Island Cruise, Dolphin Watching Excursion, or rent a pontoon boat and do your own exploring! There are several wonderful dining options at the Marina where you can watch the sunset as the boats come into dock. Pier Park is a 10 minute drive away and is a shopping, dining, and entertainment mecca. You can also go pier fishing and catch a free concert on the lawn. Dave and Buster's is at Pier Park and a large movie cinema among many other entertainment choices such as amusement rides, mazes, and laser tag. Panama City has ZooWorld, Shipwreck Island Water Park, Gulf World Marine Park, Wonderworks, Ripley's Believe It or to mention a few. For a wonderful day trip, St. Andrews State Park is located on the Gulf and is a perfect day trip about five minutes away by car. There are several entertainment establishments that feature Go Carts, Bumper Boats, Arcades, and Miniature Golf. We recommend you Google these establishments for detailed information on the sites that specifically interest you and your family.

A Heavenly Respite!

What a lovely well situated property. It was spacious and well appointed and clean. The view from the balcony was the stuff of beach dreams. The owner thought of everything down to pre paying for 2 beach chair rentals. The property itself is well maintained. I enjoyed the little touches like the free ice cream, the stand up foot cleaning fountains, and the watchful eye of the beach chair rental guy Nick who was very personable and represented Seacrest well. There was always employees cleaning and painting and checking on the property. The water was crystal clear for 150 yards out. Incredible. There were live Sand Dollars on the second sand bar that of course we viewed and did not disturb them but what a treasure. I thought the condo itself was overdecorated/cluttered with fake plants. But what an easy fix. I wished that the balcony had better lighting. The dining room table is situated on it but we were unable to see our food at night so we had to eat inside. The only other negative was that we were told that every guest had to wear a provided wrist bracelet and we seemed to be the only ones wearing them and there were obvious questionable people on the beach who did not rent condos and no one patrolled for that. That said, these are all easy fixes and we had a wonderful time. Worth every penney!

Nice condo

The condo unit was very nice. What was annoying was the neighbors. Everyone was loud, ppl smoking pot right next door. I know that’s not anyone’s fault as for as this unit goes but we’ve decided PCB is not for us anymore. We need less party and more quiet/relaxation.

BEWARE BEDS

All beds were built on a wooden frame (like a water bed frame) with mattress inside frame. 1st night sheets kept coming off bed so we had to try to raise mattress from frames to secure sheets. Owners also chose to lock the closet in 2nd bedroom for themselves. Chase brought in a wire rack for us to hang clothes. Not for those who treasure a good night's sleep. It could have been amost perfect if not for beds.

A Bit Chilly

Followed instructions on an early arrival. It took Chase 1 hr 20 min to respond (and that was after my 2nd prompt). By the time he responded it wasn’t much of an early entry. - didn’t care for the requirement to wear wristbands the entire stay - the parking pass had our room # on it. Not good…not a safe practice - left the couches cleaner than we found them. The amount of crumbs I vacuumed in between the cushions was incredible Overall, we enjoyed our stay but surely missed Ft Myers Beach where Pointe Estero is second to none.

Chase went above and beyond

Our view from the 17th floor was the best I’ve ever had in Florida, and I’ve been coming for 30+ years. The condo was clean, roomy, and updated. The pool was nice and we had easy access to the beach. Everything was great, but Chase, the property manager went above and beyond after there was a booking issue with our original unit. HUGE thank you to him! We had a great week, and will definitely come back.

Wonderful Beach Getaway

We searched for a unit to rent and noticed that many complaints are focused on building management. So we started looking for reviews on the individual buildings, which led us to the positive reviews about the Watercrest Condominiums. We were not disappointed. The grounds were immaculate, the pool was super clean, the staff was friendly, the elevators were fast, everybody was relatively quiet and the beach was awesome! We thought the cleaning fee was excessive, but the condo was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The coffee maker is a Keurig. The beds were all firm. The best feature about this unit is the huge porch where there are seats enough for 10 people. The View was AMAZING! FYI: the couches are all leather, which is easily damaged by sunscreen. The owners warned us about this in the rental agreement, so we ended up covering the couches with extra bedsheets.

Wonderful unit with incredible views!

We stayed here the month of January 2022 while my husband did some continuing education. This unit is situated on the east side of the building and we had incredible sunrises and were protected from most of the winds. It also is next to a vacant lot that appears to be owned by the city, so there was an unobstructed view. The condo was very well appointed and they even had binoculars we could use to see the wonderful sights. All in all we really enjoyed our stay and would most definitely stay here again!!
