Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Baseball and family We stayed a full week for a baseball tournament and the fourth of July weekend. This house was perfect beach access was directly in front of the house, beach was never extremely overcrowded perfect for our family ##### Shelba W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### C.A.P V. Oct 13, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy House had undergone a partial renovation that was not quite finished when we arrived(stair nose was taped down to keep us from tripping and falling due to fresh glue). Dealt with several maintenance issues many of which were fixed(water leak in wall, water leak in disposal, no cold water downstairs after leak fix, tvs missing power cords and remotes) and some that were not(microwave and oven unit quit working, water under kitchen floor from water leak). Maintenance visited the house 6 of the 9 days during our stay. Really liked the location but the house needs at least a couple more weeks of reno to get it back to rental shape. Asked Southern Vacation Rentals for a partial refund and the most they will refund is roughly 18%. Easily the worst vacation experience I've had in Panama City Beach in the past 25 years. ##### C.A.P V.
