Amazing Gulf Front Condo with 40' Balcony!

We rent Sunday to Sunday. Please use those dates to search if available.

*Beach Service included! 2 Lounge chairs and Umbrella with your rental at no extra charge* Runs from March 1st - October 31st

One of the best features of our condo is the balcony. It is nearly 40' long with over 350 SF of awesome space for enjoying the views of the gulf. There are three sitting areas on the balcony with 2 chaise lounges, dining table that seats six and the conversation area with couch, 2 rocking chairs, 2 end tables and coffee table. Not the normal rental at the beach...

MOST ASKED QUESTION - IS ALCOHOL STILL ALLOWED ON THE BEACH? Some have the misconception that alcoholic beverages are no longer allowed on the beaches at PCB. This law only applies during Spring Break (Month of March). The rest of the year alcoholic beverages are allowed on the beach.

The family-oriented, fully gated Gulf Crest Resort Condominium complex is located off the exclusive Thomas Drive area in Panama City Beach.

Professionally decorated with upscale furnishings, your family will enjoy soaring 9' 4" ceilings with crown molding, breathtaking wall-to-wall floor to ceiling windows overlooking the Gulf. High speed internet service, flat screen TVs, ceiling fans, and a beautiful well-appointed kitchen with granite counter tops and all the amenities including a mini fridge, ice maker and auto fill keurig coffee maker.
​
This spacious condo is 1388 square feet. A 40 foot long, 360 square foot balcony includes a breathtaking, unobstructed view for miles up and down the beach.
In total, the almost 1750 square feet of decorated space is approximately 25% larger than other typical two bedroom condos. You will find that it is so spacious with the seperate, Queen-sized bunk beds, it can fulfill the requirement of a 3 bedroom condo.
Overall, the unique features of the Gulf Crest complex have led it to have one of the highest repetitive guest rates of any complex on the beach.

The master suite includes a king bed with a private bathroom. The bathroom has a double vanity, jetted tub/shower, and a walk in closet.
It includes a Gulf front view with access to the balcony.
The second bedroom with queen over queen bunk beds (built for adults) accesses a second full sized guest bathroom that also features a tub and shower.
Additional built-in full sized twin bunk beds round out the sleeping facilities. Although children love the twin size bunk beds, they can accommodate adults up to 6 feet tall too!
​
For families with a wee one, we have a high chair, walker, and pack & play available to make your packing less of a hassle!

And for your days on the beach we include beach service. 2 lounge chairs & umbrella will be waiting on you whenever you want them. There are also 2 beach chairs with attached umbrellas for your use. We even include beach towels! (We just ask that if you use them you wash and put them back)
​
Each bathroom is equipped with a hairdryer and make-up remover wipes for your use. Full washer and dryer facilities are also available in a convenient, separate laundry room. Another added feature to the rental is that we supply detergent, bleach, dryer sheets and softener to do laundry!

Gulf Crest amenities include: fully gated secure community, 300 feet of ocean frontage, tropical landscaping, convenient assigned covered parking, three elevators, two large outdoor pools (one heated year round) with poolside chaise lounges, two heated Hot Tubs, and a kiddy pool. It also features a Tiki Bar serving food and beverages, poolside/beach wireless internet access (working vacation anyone?), gazebo with picnic area, BBQ grill area, a pool level fitness center, game room, a gated boardwalk dune walk-over to the beach, and outdoor showers.

The complex is convenient to many great restaurants and amusement park attractions. Many family activities within walking distance include bumper boats, go-karts, oyster bars, mini- golf, and shopping!
In addition, the area has loads of other attractions and for the naturalist, within minutes to one of the top national coastal state parks – St Andrews State Park: sugar white sand beaches and dunes, nature trails, wildlife watching, snorkeling, diving, fishing, para sailing, jet-ski rentals, pontoon boat rentals, and more. 814 762 5878

Clean and beautiful views of the ocean!

We really enjoyed our quick weekend getaway, we have stayed at Gulf Crest a couple times and it hasn’t disappointed us yet! The condo we stayed at this time had wonderful views of the ocean, and was decorated beautifully. I also enjoy having the ice maker in this unit. And it was nice having the chairs on the beach available to use. We will be back!

This condo is gorgeous! 22nd floor makes for a great view! The balcony is amazing! It is decorated like a model but is still comfortable and welcoming. My family enjoyed the condo as much as we enjoyed Panama City. We will definitely be returning!

Beautiful condo

This condo was gorgeous! By far one of the prettiest decorated rooms I've stayed in in panama city. Very clean as well. We did get a little confused on the different check out times on the email vs the list in the condo, but it wasn't a big deal.

Beautifully decorated condo! It had everything we needed and more.

This was without a doubt the best condo I have rented in PCB. The furniture is so comfortable and the balcony is amazing. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. I absolutely loved the decor! We felt like this was a ā€œhome away from homeā€ and we will definitely rent this condo again. The Vaughn’s were wonderful and so easy to work with. I would recommend this condo to anyone visiting PCB.

Peaceful

We wanted the perfect quiet peaceful getaway...we found it here!! Was everything we were looking for. The balcony alone did it for us. Hours and hours of sun and waves. The place is all up to date and decorated beautifully. The owners put their own little personal touches to make sure their guests felt like they were at home. Will definitely be going back!!! Thank you to owners David and Brenda Vaughn for your hospitality!

Amazing Condo with great view and huge deck.

We really enjoyed this place and would definitely consider going back. This condo is high up so you can see for miles. We spent a lot of time out on the spacious deck. It really is one of the best features of this unit. The interior is well decorated and upgraded for a premium rental experience. Many units on PCB have a narrow view from the living room, but the view from this unit is expansive. There is plenty to see and do within walking distance. Brenda was very responsive, making for an efficient and pleasant booking process. Rent this unit and you won't be sorry.

Great little family vacation spot

This was a great place for our family of 6. The bigger boys stayed in the full bunk beds, little man slept in his own personal "closet" and we had the master to ourselves. We had everything we needed to cook everyday including an air fryer! Having the balcony as an office (I work remote) was fantastic. The wifi worked very well, no issues. Plenty of options for TV (Netflix, cable, etc). Having beach towels and beach chairs available was very nice. The bag beach chairs provided by Brenda are great! They have umbrellas attached and everything. The only issue we had was the master bed. My husband has a bad back and the mattress was way too hard for us. It's just a personal preference, but good to know. We slept on the couches one night and stole the bottom bunk from our oldest on the last night. All in all, this condo is really fantastic, close to some great restaurants and fun (mini golf/arcade/sling shot). Highly recommend.

Simply Amazing!

What Can I say? The Views were absolutely gorgeous. Brenda was super nice and I felt like if I needed anything I could contact her and she would get back with me ASAP. The condo, overall was awesome, Very modern and decorated beautifully. But we spent most of our time on that huge balcony. By far the best balcony I’ve ever been on in Panama City! I was worried about staying on that end of Panama, Only because I’ve never stayed there before. But the beaches were not overcrowded, it was quiet and very peaceful. I found that the drive to the things that we wanted to do was not near as bad as I thought it would be. You could be anywhere in 10 minutes. We stayed here during the Covid pandemic, And I can honestly say I was relieved and not concerned for our health in this condo. It almost made me forget about the kind of world we live in right now. I would definitely recommend this condo for anybody looking for a peaceful getaway. Hopefully, I can return next summer for an unforgettable vacation! Thank you Brenda for opening your home to us!

WONDERFUL WEEK

We had a wonderful week! The condo is gorgeous! Exceeded my expectations! Typically photos online are a bit misleading but not these! The condo was immaculate (and during these Covid times we really appreciated it). The decorating is perfect....every single space the owners had thought about and found just the perfect touch! I have stayed in many condos where the furniture has a lot to be desired from a comfort or trend standpoint but you don’t care....you aren’t living there...you are just staying a week...here it made you feel like staying in luxury.! Nice pools. Food at pool bar wasn’t quick but it was very good. Nice to have two wooden beach chairs set up for us every day. Parking spot is conveniently on the third floor with a sky bridge to the elevators (I will admit the parking spaces are tight so if you have a larger vehicle expect that...we drive an explorer...getting in the first time was a challenge but after a few times of in and out it got easier). The owners also quickly respond to any text messages you send them. They were even kind enough to let us know the condo was a couple hours early which was perfect because we had arrived in town early! If you are searching for a condo in a nice area of PBC...look no further...this is the one.

Wonderful Vacation Rental!!! The new Family FAVORITE!!!

We have been going to PCB for our family vacation for many years now - we have three sons 17, 14 and 13. This is the first time we have stayed at Gulf Crest. Your condo was by far the best home away from home!!! The queen size bunks are such a bonus - our boys are getting bigger and the normal twin beds or single queen in the 2nd bedroom work but not as great as the queen bunks!!! Plenty of room for everyone. The extra bunks in the dining room were a plus, but we didn't even need to use them because of the super spacious queen bunks!! The attention to detail in the decor was beautiful. It felt like every detail was added just to make sure we enjoyed our vacation even more. The furnishing on the balcony was awesome. Our family insists on a big balcony on a high floor and we spend alot of evenings and mornings enjoying the view - I think we used this balcony more than the rest of the condo!!! Great set up! The master bedroom and bathroom were perfect! This condo was super clean - I am a bit picky about the way things are cleaned, but the cleaning crew for this condo really did a perfect job. The kitchen has all the things you need to make great meals - and frozen drinks! Thank you so very much for taking the time to make your condo feel like a home. The only bad thing I can say about it is that we didn't stay long enough to enjoy everything you included - like the wine fridge! Absolutely, positively amazing!!! I don't think my boys - or my husband - will let us stay anywhere else!!!
