About this property

SUNBIRD - Panama City Beach stunning PENTHOUSE with panoramic DIRECT Ocean view!

This is our second home, so its kept in pristine and luxurious condition AT ALL TIMES!

ALL photos are recent of our Penthouse unit, and pictures of the ocean, sunsets etc are taken from our balcony or windows facing the ocean.

We spent several years looking for a condo that had a spectacular view and great beach location. When we found this one and stepped inside we were stunned by the view of the Gulf of Mexico....it took our breath away and instantly we knew this was the one!

Perhaps the best Penthouse view in the building, this exclusive penthouse now being offered to discerning guests looking for a romantic stay on the Gulf of Mexico with STUNNING sunset and sunrise views from east to west. The Sunbird has just undergone a complete renovation and looks gorgeous!

The final touches are in progress with the redo of the Tennis courts and addition of 2 Pickle ball courts.

This modern super clean unit was decorated to maximize the view of the Gulf without distractions.

Our philosophy was to provide an interior that's visually appealing so you enjoy your surrounding whether you're inside or out.

We opted for a modern look, avoided the cliche "beach" decor because the view is so bold and so beautiful you need no additional reminder that you're in beach heaven.

Equipped with everything you'll need for a pampered vacation, you can start your day with coffee brewed from our complimentary Latin American whole bean coffee startup kit. The professional grinder is all setup, all you need to do is press the button and grind what you need. If you prefer Keurig, we've added that too along with a kettle for those who prefer Tea.

Enjoy breakfast on the large PRIVATE balcony prepared in your fully equipped kitchen.

Situated in the EAST tower, we're tucked away in a more private and quiet area of the beach while giving you spectacular views night and day.

Are you a foodie? Not to worry, while there are some great dining places nearby such as Saltwater Grill, don't limit your dining and shopping experiences to the local beach area.....famous Rosemary Beach is only minutes away for the finest of dining and shopping. For a fun experience, famous Pineapple Willies is just a few minutes walk.

Before retiring to bed, sit and watch a movie on the new 65" smart TV with full cable TV. In addition to premium cable TV, WiFi is included too.

Exhausted from walks on beach, you'll then settle into bed on a new high quality Queen mattress with top quality linens for a good nights rest.

As seasoned world travelers, we took our experiences and designed this unit to pamper and accommodate all your needs.

We've even included a welcome package with bottled water, soap, shampoo and moisturizer.

A Gourmet coffee package is included so you can relax on your first morning, and ready to be ground for a sensational cup of coffee while you enjoy the sunrise.

This unit even includes a blender in case you want to make some great smoothies for the beach.

Beautiful glassware is on hand for wine and beverages.

As in the title, we've reserved 2 chairs and an umbrella at the beach for you each day (March - October). All you need to do is go down to the beach and request it.

We've worked hard taking into account from our own personal travels around the globe to provide you with the most beautiful and carefree stay!

Lastly, we've hired the best and most professional cleaning crew around and go above and beyond to have a pristine unit for ourselves and our guests.

This is our second home, please be respectful and maintain it like it were yours so we all can have an incredible experience.

Have Fun!

Almost Heaven

We had a very nice fortnight in this gem with a view. It perches on the twelfth floor with commanding views of the beach east and west. The living room is large and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is well-equipped, with every appliance needful and an enormous refrigerator. The host was very communicable and available, with suggestions for dining out. --And did I mention the views?!That said, the reasons we give a rating of four and not five are these: There is very limited storage, both in the small bedroom, where there is no dresser and only a rather small closet (we partially lived out of our suitcases), and in the narrow kitchen, where there is no cabinet space for food (we had to put our supplies on the small counter). It would be difficult for complicated cooking, and only one person could contribute. We occasionally blew a fuse with too many appliances in use, and we had trouble adjusting the thermostat for heat.In sum: A very nice place indeed, with superb views. But it could be even better.

Fantastic view!! Romantic.

Condo was clean and well appointed. Best views! Great pool and beach access was perfect. Beach setup was a huge plus. Never had access to a cart but luckily we pack pretty light so only a few trips to the car. Construction on adjacent condo was not a problem. They didn’t start till 8am and we were up before that.

Wonderful

This condo is the best on Panama city beach. The balcony view is stunning. Very private . The Host Richard makes you feel like family. They go above and beyond provided a welcome basket with goodies. Had enough toilet paper. Paper towels. Dishwasher detergent . Trash bags. Basically you didnt even have to use your own. Ive never stayed anywhere where the owners have put so much thoughtfulness into your rest and comfort. I highly recommend this condo.

Perfect romantic getaway

Owner was easily reachable and responded quickly. Incredible view,right on the beach. Although it was stated construction was going on at these condos,we never heard any of it! They had completed work on this side &moved to a completely different area. Gate worker remembered us from the very 1st day &always had the gate open &ready when he saw us approaching. Owner arranged to have coffee for us,informed us of new places to visit,quickly answered any questions etc just a WONDERFUL host! We will definitely be back very soon! It was so hard to leave this incredible get away.

Sunbird penthouse

The apartment was immaculately clean and we were really grateful for the generous supply of towels and kitchen essentials. We are English and so the absence of a kettle seemed unusual, but we just used a pan on the hob. The 4 stars for the location should really be a 4.5; we just weren’t huge fans of the giant surrounding blocks. But Sunbird itself was great with fantastic ocean views. And the fact that the beach runs east-west means it doesn’t suffer from being cast into the shade (by the tower blocks) for much of the day. The AC worked well but was a little noisy. And we really loved the entry code system - so much easier than old fashioned keys and fobs. And the beach was phenomenal - especially as it is a dog free zone and we were able to walk on the sand all the way round to St Andrews State Park. Brilliant! Thank you, Richard, for a fantastic base for our winter sun trip.

About the host

Hosted by Richard

Host profile image
This is our second home, we recently purchased it and were hoping to use it more often, but travel time for us makes it too difficult to get there more often unfortunately. We're both frequent traveler's and used our extensive experience staying at luxury properties to configure this unit to maximize our guests experience.

Unlike other properties that have indifferent owners who are just trying to make a $, or faceless management companies, you are dealing with husband and wife professionals who deeply cares about their property and is always looking at ways to improve the experience. We use it too, and want guests who will treat it like their own, and we will make sure that you have an experience as if it were you're own property!

There is nothing more enjoyable than hearing from our guests that they had a fantastic experience, and enjoyed it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

After looking at properties on the beach all over Florida we decided that Panama City Beach was one of the most beautiful beaches in not only America but the world. In particular, the Sunbird is situated further down the beach where it is quieter even in peak season.

What makes this property unique

The Sunbird just went through a complete remodel bringing it back to its prime. The architecture of the building is modern and angular making it very interesting. Because of the architectural design, the balconies are very private unlike most other buildings where they are just side by side. In particular, the Penthouse unit and especially ours, is perched out on an angle which gives nearly total privacy and allows you to see both sunrise and sunset with unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico. The Sunsets are among the best we've seen in the world, even rivaling a Hawaii sunset in Waikiki!
