Emerald Water & Sugar White Sand Awaits You! Beachfront Condo, Pool

BEACH CHAIR SERVICE WITH 2 LOUNGERS AND AN UMBRELLA DURING SEASON- MARCH THROUGH MID OCTOBER. Brand new 80k full renovation.

We invite you to experience this exceptional luxury beach get-a-way. Watercrest Condominiums are located on the famous Gulf of Mexico where the emerald colored lapping water creates a 27 mile ribbon of spectacular white sugar like sand beach. The visual effects, sea sounds, and sea aromas offer a truly calming setting. From sunrise to sunset, as far as you can see East and West, you will be astounded with the views!

This condo is designed to allow you to experience this setting inside as well as outside with the wall to wall glass doors and windows. Another unique feature of this three bedroom/three bath condo are the two master suites both with equally stunning views! It is artfully decorated and beautifully furnished. There is a dining table with seating for six plus seating for three more at the kitchen bar, gorgeous bedding and accessories and large Smart TVs. The laminated plank floors are spectacular! The gourmet kitchen is yours to enjoy with stainless steel appliances and quartz counter tops. All three just remodeled bathrooms are nicely appointed with a walk in shower and a brand new shower tub combo in the hall bath All with quartz counter tops and tile surrounds. There are two master suites with king size beds and the third bedroom has two twin bunk beds and a third trundle twin and also a queen size bed. A queen size Murphy Bed is located in the living area posing as a TV console. There is maximum sleeping capacity of 11 but of course provides wonderful privacy for less occupants. Both masters have large sliding glass doors that allow an amazing view of the ocean from the 10th floor. The balcony is furnished with ample seating so everyone can enjoy the views of the Gulf as it is truly amazing from this balcony.
Watercrest Condominiums completed a 4.5 million dollar renovation and the entire complex is fresh starting with the beautiful entrance portico with amazing water feature to the pool deck where all the outdoor furnishings are new. You will find it well maintained and very clean. Please come and experience this beautiful stretch of sugar white sand beaches, abundant entertainment, and friendly southern hospitality. Of course the beach is the main attraction but the pool complex with large pool, heated in cooler weather, kiddie pool and hot tub, are a cut above also with The Tiki Bar poolside at serving your favorite frozen cocktails along with snacks and light lunch entries. Everything you need for an amazing day at the beach! There are 27 miles of beach in this Northwest Florida paradise and Watercrest is one of the most beautiful well maintained condos in the area. We love this East end of the beach because the traffic is so much lighter than in other areas. Also, parking is easy at Watercrest, you will register and pay for parking upon arrival, and the elevators are fast. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy the on site amenities such as tennis and shuffleboard courts and pickle ballcourts, heated pool cooler weather, hot tub, kiddie pool and exercise room.

Amazing stay!

Our family of six totally enjoyed this spacious condo. We loved the view and we were always amazed by the sunsets. We appreciated being a few steps from the beach and all the other activities we did were only a few minutes away.

Perfect

We had the pleasure of staying here for 7 nights during spring break. Our family enjoyed this unit very much. It was as described and looked like the photos. This was our 2nd trip to PC but first in the condo. Pool, hot tub, and beach were perfect. We would definitely stay here again.

Family Vacay!

Condo was perfect, security staff awesome, and beach service at condo was great. Nate was awesome! Oliver the security guys was super nice and welcoming. My mom got to meet her great grandson for the first time and it was awesome! The atmosphere at the resort was so relaxing and the timing of our trip was perfect! Not over crowded! Never waited longer than 2 minutes for an elevator!

family time

Wonderful views for watching fireworks from the balcony. First time renting from VRBO. Only down side was all the extra fees added on to the base price, not used to that with other type rentals I have done its just tax for the most part. Made what looked like a super deal not as super. Since it was July 4th week ON THE BEACH(3 generations) with three teens and four adults enjoyed being in a very relaxing spot for a few days.

Worth every single penny !

My husband and i , along with our friends visited panama city last week & when i tell you we were not disappointed in our home for the week. ! It was maybe 15 steps to the beach ! My ONLY complaint is that there wasn’t a broom available to us . Other than that this property was nothing short of perfect ! we will be back next year if the hosts will have us !

Family trip

. The only complaint I have is the master bedroom bed was very high. I am 5' 7" and it came up to my belly button so getting in it was difficult at times. Also we had to sleep with our heads at the foot of the bed because our heads slanted down too much on the other side.
