Good Day Sunshine

We had an excellent time at Sonnie’s townhouse! We loved the location of the townhouse to the pool and mini golf which we used during our stay. There is a walk to the beach but a private entrance, so even that wasn’t too bad. We will definitely keep her in mind if we venture to Panama City Beach again in the future.

Great location for family of 4, and pet friendly! Easy walk to beach and pool, convenient location in heart of PCB. Very clean, spacious, and has everything you need.

Perfect Place

The overall property was perfect for our family of 4. It had everything we needed for our stay. We were in town for a baseball tournament, the location was close to all the events for the tournament as well as many great restaurants. We had one minor issue during our stay that was handled quickly and effectively by the owner and maintenance crew. We truly appreciated how easy it was to work with them and got back to enjoying our vacation with no other issues. We can’t wait to get back down there again for a stay.

If you're looking for the perfect beach location this is the place to stay. Very family oriented. Its a 5 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute walk to 8 restaurants. The host was very helpful and provided beach chairs, wagon & toys for our stay. After the beach our family enjoyed tennis, put-put golf & shuffle board all within the condo complex.

This condo was such the perfect size, cozy clean and loaded with everything we needed!! Maybe a 10 minute walk to the beach but the weather was perfect for this easy little trek! The resort property is HUGE with pools and amenities galore! It was also a great area for my sweet pup…..most of the residents and visitors seemed to have and be animal lovers 😍. The owner, Sonnie, was so gracious and responsive! The rental price was beyond reasonable for all of the benefits!! Thank you Sonnie for a wonderful getaway before the holiday chaos!! 😉

Great condo and in a great location! A few steps to the pool and mini golf and a short walk to beach! Restaurants and stores close by. Great family vacation and what topped it all off was being able to bring our dogs as well to enjoy it! Plenty of green space around to walk the dogs which was great. Very well stocked condo with everything you need from putters to beach items, etc! Only had one question while there and when I reached out I received a very fast response. Thanks for everything!

Exactly what we needed

Visiting for the PCB Ironman and this was exactly what we needed. Arrived the afternoon before and everything we would need was provided, made the decision to stay in and rest so easy. Location was perfect, close but not so close that we would get stuck in traffic. Plenty to do around the place. Gated community gives you a piece of mind, so quiet. Could not think of anything that would have made it better. We will definitely be trying to stay here again next year. Thank you!

Birthday Vacation

The owner was extremely nice and accommodating! When we arrived there was a note, bottle of wine , a bag and a postcard waiting for us. This really brought a smile to our face and was a great 1st impression, especially after a 7 hour drive. The neighborhood was amazing! Overall an amazing experience, the only downside was trying to access the beach, if you don’t mind a little walk or paying a fee at one of the local parking lots, than this is a great place for you. There’s also a wagon and chairs already provided by the owner which was extremely convenient. I would definitely stay again but I would look into renting a golf cart to better access the beach.
