We had two families on our trip consisting of 4 adults and 4 children (ages 5-9). We loved just about everything about choosing this property for our week-long March trip.
The home itself was sparkling clean, spacious, and beautiful. The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated that immensely. The private pool area was a main reason we rented here and we used it daily (though quite cold still in March, the adults couldn't handle it but the kids powered through). The proximity to the beach was absolutely fantastic - its *right* there - walking from the front door to the sand is probably 2 minutes. A huge plus on the location is that you are on a stretch of beach that is just homes rather than being right next to a hotel, resort, or condominium building. Therefore, the population on the beach in that area is noticeably less & we loved this aspect! You are also just a tad away from the majority of bars, restaurants, attractions and in a quieter stretch of Panama City Beach. You can still get to all of the great places within minutes but get to enjoy a quieter and less crowded area when at the house.
We loved visiting St Andrews State Park which is less than a 5min drive. A highlight for everyone was renting a pontoon boat for a day and visiting Shell Island (we used and would recommend Lagoon Pontoons). We got pizza one evening from Shore Shack Pizza and it was excellent.
We were a little disappointed with the lack of kitchen supplies, it seemed to be incongruous with how top-notch the rest of the home is. There were no spices other than salt and pepper, no condiments, no coffee or sugar. Little to no supplies to store food (such as ziplocks, tupperware, foil, saran wrap). Limited and worn cooking items like pots, pans, cookie sheets. We also were not used to renting a beach home that had zero beach supplies so be prepared to buy/bring: beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, toys, towels. Another nice touch would be to have some board games and card games for families to use in the evenings and on bad weather days.
Overall - highly recommend! You will not regret this location on the beautiful Emerald Coast!
