Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance your experience at Shores of Panama, we are undergoing a significant construction project from September 24, 2024, to March 1, 2025. We want to ensure you are fully informed about the construction phases and how they may impact your stay.

Phase 1: Initial Construction Period

• Dates: September 24, 2024, to November 25, 2024
• Affected Units: Balconies in units 2113, 1314, 1415, and 1615 will be completely inaccessible and have an obstructed view.
• Activities: Construction work will occur daily from 8AM to 6PM, Monday through Friday.

Phase 2: Extended Construction Impact

• Dates: November 25, 2024, to March 28, 2025
• Newly Affected Units: Additional units affected during this period include 507, 1507, 1907, 2011, 1512, 1912, 1517, and 1817 which will also experience inaccessible balconies and obstructed views.

Parking notes: There is parking available for a fee and charges will apply for 1 vehicle.

When it comes to that long-awaited vacation to sunshine and crashing waves, what could be better than all of the comforts of home right on the sand here in Panama City Beach? Boasting serene views of the Gulf of Mexico from the private furnished balcony, this dreamy condo will be the perfect perch to slip right into relaxation mode. When days heat up, simply head down to the shared indoor or outdoor pools and take a dip. Or, make your way a few steps further onto the pristine sand and spend the day sipping a cold drink as you break into that new novel you have been meaning to get around to. When you return to home base, the full kitchen will come in handy for tasty dinners, and bar seating will make meal prep a social event. Plus, entertainment won't be hard to find with free WiFi and TVs in each room!

This location cannot be beat here in Panama City Beach, as you will be equidistant from restaurants, grocery stores, and beach activities, many of which are within walking distance of the complex! If you are looking for some excitement away from the sand, the kids will love visiting ZooWorld Zoological and Botanical Conservatory (one mile), Ripley's Believe It or Not! (half-mile), or Shipwreck Island Waterpark (two miles). Not to mention, the golfers of the group will love that Signal Hill Golf Course is right next door!

Worked well for 7

The property was nice, I loved being able to grab a burger and drinks at the grill and not have to leave the property. It looks large and intimidating at first but we navigated it with ease. We would stay again, maybe on a lower floor.

The price was better than I found elsewhere, the resort was so nice and right on the beach. Coffee on the balcony watching the waves crash was my favorite way to start each day! I would (and very well may!) stay here again!

Poor ecample of beach rental

Floors dirty. Had to rewash. Wait time for elevators was 45 .min plus. Had to carry our luggage down 15 flights of stairs to leave since elevator was out. When booking Vrbo site was Not user friendly. All in all will not stay here again!

It was mostly good.

The balcony door slid open easy, but was terrible to shut. The shower and sink in one bathroom clogged up and drained incredibly slow. The sheets and mattresses on the bunk beds were pretty dirty, we were told there should be more sheets in the closets but there was not. The bedroom door (attached to the bathroom with the clogged sink and shower) wouldn’t shut all the way. I feel the maintenance and cleanliness of the rooms could have been better taken care of prior to our arrival. There also were no smoke detectors in the room, which is a huge safety hazard. For what we paid, which was A LOT, we expected better accommodations.

Great location!

This is a beautiful condo and a great location to all the fun things in PCB! We loved that we had a pool that was perfect for all ages (zero entry up to 5ft) and private access to the beach from the resort. Everything was virtually perfect with this condo. The only things we were concerned with within the condo was the dryer didn't work and there wasn't enough basic toiletries (one roll of toilet paper per bathroom) for our 5 day stay. The dryer would turn on and get warm but it never dried anything after multiple attempts (lint filter was cleaned so that wasn't the problem). Overall, it's a fantastic place and would highly recommend, but plan on running over to Walmart (close enough to walk) to grab basic toiletries (TP, shampoo, body wash, soap, etc) if you plan on staying more than a couple days.

Would not stay here again!

The pictures are deceiving. This unit is dirty. Whom ever you hire to keep this place up, should be fired! The couch was dirty! The kitchen was gross! Broken patio furniture and door to patio was extremely difficult to open. MOLD in the ceiling and in one of the bathrooms! Closets full of random junk. Not to mention getting stuck on the elevator twice and the rude people that work there! Very disappointed!

Great location but has some hiccups

My family and I stayed here over Memorial Day weekend and we enjoyed our stay, for the most part. The location is amazing and the condo was nice, but we had 2 pretty big hiccups that have confirmed that we will never stay at this location again. The first one was that when we checked in, there were zero towels. None. My family of 7 had no beach towels or shower towels. My mom called 8 times over the course of 14 hours to get towels before we finally received them at 3 pm the next day after checking in. The customer service is appalling and virtually non existent (we rented through vacasa). So bring towels if you want to shower or go to the beach. Additionally, the elevator situation is abysmal. There are maybe 6 elevators for the entire building and they are always crammed full. If you want to go downstairs, you will most likely have to ride the elevator all the way up to the 22nd floor and then back down to the bottom, stopping on every single floor. It made getting down to the beach from the 15th floor take 20-30 minutes every time. Additionally, the elevators are not air conditioned and usually at least one or two are broken down, so you will sweat your ass off just trying to get to the beach while packed in like sardines with 10 other people. Even without the towel situation, the elevators alone are enough to keep us from ever renting anywhere in this building again.

Will not stay at the hotel again. The staff was rude and the condo wasn’t cleaned very well.

I would advise you to get a different cleaning company , I would also put some rat traps down. The ceiling needs to be replaced in the hall and new sheets for the beds. We had blood stains on them. You should also replace the patio furniture. Also I would change the that you get 10 wrist bands to 8 at check in.

Love the Gulf

The view of the pool and ocean was beautiful! Beds/furniture comfortable, nice to have 3 full bathrooms. Well stocked kitchen and large refrigerator. Cable TV in living room and both bedrooms. The bunk room was right by the main door and would have been nicer if had a door or curtain of some kind to block the light and for privacy. One of the chairs on the deck was broken. It appeared clean but I decreased the stars due to a mouse in the kitchen closet the first night we arrived. It ran under the refrigerator. I called the realitor and did it receive a call back for 14 hrs. In the mean time I spoke with the maintenance of the building who could not enter the condo but offered advice of sticky traps to catch it. I purchased traps and never did catch it or see it again. I was told that an exterminator would be out but they did not show while we were there. Walmart is walking distance making it easy to get groceries for the week. White sand beach is amazing. Water color and clearity was beautiful! One day there was a seaweed problem on the beach but the rest of the time there was no problem. We didn’t have a problem w the elevators. Maybe a little wait during popular check in and check out times. There are carts at the front entrance you can borrow as long as you leave your license. The wrist bands must be worn throughout the building at all times. Is a good way for them to know who belonged. We enjoyed our time at Panama City Beach!!

Mom & daughter vacation

Overall, the condo was nice; there were a few issues. We were without a TV for 24 hours. I did text property owners to let them know of a few issues; so hopefully they resolved those after we left (a few light bulbs not working; 1 lamp the part was missing to turn it off and on; also one of the closet doors off track. I wish there had been some kind of lock/latch on the inside of the door; safety for two women. We love Shores of Panama have been staying there for years. I would recommend it.

Disliked: Check-in

Check-in was terrible. Resolving issues with platitudes does notwork.

Property suited our needs. Some Vacassa policies were not customer-friendly and I had never experience with any previous rentals, i.e. they would not provide check-in email a day before arrival, all others provided at least 3 days before arrival. Have never before been in a rental property that did not have WIFI information in multiple locations in the housing. I don't know if this is the owner's decision another customer unfriendly Vacassa rule. Since I would be traveling several hours to the house on the day of arrival. I called Vacassa in the morning and got the code to enter the house. I was not aware that I needed additional codes (e.g. to open gate to enter property), and the person that gave me code to enter the house did not seem to feel that it was important to tell me the gate code. I arrived at the gate and could not get in. drove around the outside of the property to see if there was another entrance, there was not. Drove back to gate and fortunately a construction equipment had driven close enough to the exit gate that the exit gate opened, so I went in through the exit gate. Entered the house and then could not locate WIFI information so could not retrieve the all-important email from Vacassa that they refused to send the day before. Eventually called Vacassa again and received the WIFI info. The check-in was a disaster and after driving several hours, I only wanted to unpack and decompress from driving. This is one of the few condo-type houses I have been in that did not mark the light switches. There was a light I could not turn on and had no idea what switch would have turned it on although there were two wall switches that did not appear to control anything. The property manager was contacted and I believe entered the property while I was gone (but left no note) and did not fix the problem. My phone was not working well and I requested that they respond by email, but apparently, they do not do email (Vacassa refused to provide me with the property manager email). Generally, I felt that Vacassa replied with platitudes rather than making sure I was satisfied. Other miscellaneous issues: • Seemed to be a shortage of waste baskets. Ended up improvising. • First house I was ever in that did not have a broom. • The ceiling in the main part of the house had been repaired, but the ceiling paint used did not match the rest of the ceiling. • Quite a few damaged tiles throughout the house.

Beautiful condo in a great location. Had everything we needed for our stay. The elevator situation was frustrating at times, but we survived it. The parking is extremely limited and takes 15mina to circle the parking garage to make it to the top floor to find an unreserved spot, if you’re lucky.
