Place was perfect location! Balcony was massive!! So relaxing! Perfect beach place! We loved being on the top floor!! Everyone so friendly! If ever in Panama we will come back!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moondrifter 801! Our main amenities: the view, the bed, and the balcony were phenomenal. The condo itself is lacking in several areas and desires repairs and updating. The location is great and we’d would love to stay again pending repairs.

The kitchen fan motor needs to be replaced. There are some ceiling tiles which need to be replaced. There were some lights bulbs that needed to be replaced.
Regardless of the minor issues in the unit, the condo was beautiful. The view was breathtaking. The unit is exactly like the photos online. We will visit again for sure.
The floor to ceiling glass in the living room overlooking the gulf was wonderful. The master bedroom faces the gulf as well. Bed was super comfy! Loved having my coffee each morning on the balcony. Two bathrooms was a plus! Would go back (plus I love the Panhandle beaches)!
We have been traveling to PCB for years. This is such a great beachfront condo for the money.

Needs updating.
Overall we had a very nice time during our stay here. The balcony and the view was amazing!!! Internet service was very slow. Tv in master bedroom would not work. No video cord for DVD player in master bedroom. DVD player in living room only played movies in grainy black and white. No exhaust fan in master bedroom. Light switch does not work in master bedroom. Couch is very worn out and sounds like it’s going to break in living room. Was not very clean when we arrived. It did not appear to be swept or mopped and there was trash in the garbage can. No amenities.

Moondrifter 801
We had a great few days at the beach. The condo overall was OK. We didn’t like the fact that you can only check in at 4 and no earlier as we arrived 3 hours before check in and couldn’t get groceries or anything due to having all of our luggage in our vehicle. It is also very unclear of where to pick up the wristbands and parking passes. The staff at the condo were not very friendly and hateful in a way when we asked questions. Overall, it was OK.
Me and my fiance stayed at Moondrifter 801 the second week of August and we had a very pleasant stay. The room was clean for the most part. The only complaints we have is the bathroom in the master bedroom was clogged up and the hot water was pretty much non-existent. A few little updates need to be done such as the skillet and baking pans. Bit other then that we enjoyed the large balcony and the bed was clean and comfy. We would stay again. It was also not extremely crowded not sure if it is due to Covid-19 or just the location. Overall we had a great experience.
This condo appeared as advertised. However housekeeping had to be brought in as soon as we arrived to clean again. There was food left on the end tables in the living room and lots of sand still left in the sofa. The kitchen essentials needed an upgrade as the pans have been over used and the handles were all loose on them. We even pulled out a pan that had not even been washed prior to being placed back in the cabinet. We intended on washing everything before we used it anyway but did not expect that. Management was attentive to our issues when they were brought up.
Our favorite thing was definitely the huge balcony. The views from 801 can't be beat. This was our favorite condo so far in PCB. The club La Vela next door was closed the week we went so it was more quiet and pretty secluded. The only negative would be there wasn't a decent broom and dustpan which is a must in any condo at the beach.
The room was not ready at check in time. When it was ready it was still very dirty. Had to go buy a mop, bucket, and clean the room ourself. The balcony furniture was rusted and ripped with rusty metal on the balcony. Kids could not go out there. Called maintenance to come and remove, and they never showed up. Very unhappy.
We had a great time on my family vacation! It was quiet, not crowded, and very homey. The beach chairs were directly in front of our room. I was upset that the balcony furniture was broke and the tables were rusted, also that the button for the bath (to switch from shower to bath) was broken, and there wasn’t a dustpan for me to sweep up all of the sand. If these things were fixed I would definitely stay again. The property manager always replied to my questions timely and professional!

Nice property. Next to a club! Loud music all night.
The Panhandle getaways office on site remained closed for days. We arrived and could not get keys or a parking pass. We went 3 days without a parking pass. Had a stranger not told us that they might be under the mat, we would not have gotten in at all after driving 6 hours. Office person was not very friendly, said she could not find a babysitter for days. Office was only open for parts of ONE day for the whole time we were there a week. Other residents were also looking for parking passes and keys. No one would answer the phone to tell us what to do about keys and parking pass. There was a club next door that stayed open and played loud music all night. Gate to the beach remained open at ALL times. The condo itself was very nice and very spacious with an Amazing patio. Pool was small and dirty.

Great time!
We had the best beach vacation! The condo was very nice, equipped with everything we needed. If they did not have what you needed, Wal-Mart and Dollar Tree is right down from the condo. The beach was right at our fingertips, both day and night! Club LaVela was next door, but they did not keep anyone up at night. It was nice they played music during the day while we were on the beach. There was never a wait for the elevator. The staff was very nice and always helpful.The balcony was huge and overlooked the ocean. We sat out there every night and every morning. The only drawback was that our trip was only 7 days. We will be back next year!!

Very outdated for the money. Couldn't get the panhandle group to even get us wash cloths.
Started the stay off with the sliding door handle laying on the floor....called maintenance never got fixed the whole week. There was absolutely zero wash cloths called the main office twice and walked down and personally told staff...never got wash cloths the whole week. The office would close down the pool at 6:00 so the kids were very disappointed and was very hard to see the neighboring condo have their pool open until 10:00. The HOA guy was nice but the panhandle group needs replaced. For the first time out of very many trips to PCB I actually was excited to go home. I will absolutely never stay here again. BTW I had to buy wash cloths from Walmart lol. The bunk beds for kids are metal and very very noisy to the point they would wake you up at night if they rolled over. I usually never complain about a stay but I paid premium price for something I should have been paid to stay there. I will always be back to PCB but I will not get burned again on a below average building. I suggest you drop the price significantly.

Needs to be deep down cleaned!
The handrails were so loud because they are rusty. The patio furniture was broken and torn. The coffee pot was broken. The couches all seem really dirty and stink but clean sheets fixed that. The bed needs a new mattress.
The view was amazing and really made the stay overall good. There was very loud music from the next door bar. But again, the view is a million dollar view.
