About the host: We are Pam and Mike from Michigan! We first visited the area in the late '70s with Pam's grandparents. Upon returning in the late 90s with our teenage boys, we discovered many changes and had a wonderful time with them and friends! Finally we have once again returned to the area as of a couple years ago and have now brought our boys and their families back and fully fallen in love with all the activities, sunshine, and of course the beach!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:

Can we rent commercial chairs, lounges, and umbrellas?

A:

Yes, right next door on the Beach out front at the "Majestic" property! $40 per day. Sea Doos and other rentals available as well!

Perfect Location!

This condo has everything you could need! Just across from the largest pool in the complex, and an easy walk to the beach! We rode our bikes all around the complex every night, and the kitchen is stocked for cooking ( even has a crockpot!). Mike was a great host. We would definitely recommend this home for a great vacation!

Perfect!

We came to Panama City for a baseball tournament! We were so lucky to find Mike’s beach condo at last minute! Easy to book, access and communication was excellent. We had double red flags most of our trip, so we couldn’t get in the ocean. But the pool was just a few steps away! And the kids enjoyed swimming and they absolutely LOVED fishing off the back deck in the canal! My son caught many turtles and a catfish. Your place was home away from home! Thank you!

So happy to hear you had a great time Gabby, it's quite an active area with lots to do! Disappointed that the Gulf was not happy during your stay, that happens from time to time. Hope to see you and yours again!
