Most importantly, the Beach is the reason we go to Panama City Beach and this beach was very nice, clean, and this west side of PCB is quieter - which we liked. Beach Service for 2 included with the unit providing wooden chairs and an umbrella. So we had them put up an umbrella down at the shoreline and used our chairs so we could be closer to the water.
Condo building itself was very good, fresh paint outside, Security and Groundskeepers kept it clean and secure. We were able to park easily in the garage in our assigned space which made it very easy and convenient with just a very short walk from car to elevator. Check-in was simple using a door code so no line to contend with. We did have to stop in the office briefly to pay for parking pass (25 extra, slightly annoying that its not included with a full week paid stay) and armbands. The elevators were always available and we rarely had to wait more than a couple of minutes which is great.
This condo Unit 2202 was very good overall.
- The highlight is the large curved balcony that offers ample room to sit and great panoramic views thanks to the curved design.
- The Master Bedroom opens to the ocean view, which is really nice. The bed was comfortable, a very soft King size and we slept well.
- The den is decorated simply with a nice view over the water. However, we found neither sofa very comfortable to sit on. The TV was large, although it took a little trial and error to figure out how to work the remote. Internet access was easy and seemed fast.
- Tile floors in kitchen and den, however carpet in bedrooms which we wished were tile especially for a rental unit with lots of traffic at the beach.
- The kitchen was excellent overall and we particularly liked the well stocked dishes, small appliances, and utensils/tools for cooking. I would rate this one of the best stocked kitchens we have had with lots of flatware, wine glasses, and dishes.
- Only negatives were he stackable washer/dryer was really small, smaller than any other unit I have stayed in; the shower drain was backing up into the tub in the 2nd bedroom shower and draining really slowly.
- There were also some beach items like chairs, a cart, plastic sand toys, etc. which was a definite plus.
Overall, this was a good experience and we would definitely consider this unit 2202 again.
