The location was amazing there were a few things that would have made the stay better. There were not enough towels to guest ratio. The dryer kept throwing a sensor code that there was a blockage. There was also clumps of hair on the bathroom floor. Kitchen and fridge was very clean. We were not expecting the extra 100 resort charge that we found out about the day before check in.

Mold was in the washing machine holes in the wall and no fire alarms. The host kept saying he will fix it but did not. We left the first day and he said he will return the money. But after a week he would not respond blocked my number and tried to keep the money. I had to deal with vrbo to get my money back and due to safety and health regulation i got my money back. Horrible parking as well and the entire resort was not kept up at all. Not sure how they even got any good ratings. ##### ???? ?. Stayed 10 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Becky G.

Cars and people (that weren’t staying at resort) were everywhere on the streets. Cops do a nice job of keeping order in Panama City Beach but wow it was nuts!!!! Hard to figure out where to check in at first and roads were blocked off everywhere. Every other day was good, condo was good, good view, parking was okay resort was nice, no issues with having to wait long for elevator. We had double red flags almost whole time there so that was a bummer but kids enjoyed the hot tub! Sunset views are amazing!!! Could have used a few more pans to use for breakfast but we made do.

We brought our 6 kiddos for spring break. It was very much at the “party” end of the beach so it got rather rowdy at night, but nothing unbearable. Our kids had a great time. Wish the outdoor pool were heated, as we felt like popsicles coming out of it. lol. The property owner was very easy to reach and even checked in on day 2 to see if we were satisfied. The condo could use a good deep cleaning as things were dusty, but with it being on the beach keeping things clean clean is near impossible! We were overall happy and I would definitely book this condo again in the future (just not on spring break when it’s so rowdy). May possibly look into booking at fall break! ##### Jusstine E.

Oct 28, 2023 Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy #### Shores of Panama The grounds are beautiful. Didn't like how resort was built like a horseshoe. Reminded me of a huge housing project. All the staff were very friendly. The elevators are terrible especially when almost every condo is occupied. Very very slow, or the door would open and it was full to capacity so you'd have to wait for another. Whoever designed the resort did not put in enough elevators. All in all a nice place ##### Wendy H. Stayed 14 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle H. Oct 27, 2021 Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy #### Started rough wonderful ending Our check in time was 4:00 pm. We purposely arrived around 4:00 as we had a one year old with us and we did not want to go to the beach with her after a long drive. The property was not ready and the cleaning lady was still there she told us to just go down to the pool and wait. But we had all of our luggage in the cars and no where to change. The baby was tired. We told her we would just wait. Then she started heading blankets and sheets to my children telling them where to put them. I am not sure what exactly she was doing as she didn’t let us in fully until after 7p.m. The condo was not cleaned very well at all. The bunk room bathroom smelled of urine. The kitchen counters were dirty and the floors were quite sandy. Under the couch cushions were food crumbs. We went to the store and purchased cleaning products and cleaned ourselves. The sliding glass door was so hard to open and close so my husband and son adjusted it so we could go in and out, but was still too hard for the children to open and close. After we cleaned and fixed the door ourselves we had a great time. I will say cell and Wifi service was terrible. We could not watch television at all. Otherwise we really did enjoy our stay. ##### Michelle H. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Linzy L. Sep 6, 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Do not recommend this property Let me start by saying I have used Vrbo over 30 times and have never felt the need to write a review. This was the worst condo I have ever stayed in. First off when we entered the condo it smelled terrible. It smelled almost as though someone was smoking in it before we got there. The kids were so grossed out. Great way to start your vacation! Then my girls went into the guest bedroom and were so disgusted by the sheets in that room that I immediately had to wash the sheets. Next we go check out the balcony and the door was so messed up and heavy that only my husband could physically open and shut the door, and even then I thought he might throw his back out each time we went out onto the balcony! Next remotes and batteries were missing on the televisions. I never could get the master bedroom tv to work because I could never could find a remote to that one. Next the dishwasher was broken. It didn’t have a latch for the soap dispenser so nothing would get clean. So I spent most of the vacation doing dishes and laundry. The room literally had 4 towels in it. No wash clothes and not one bath mat. It was another safety hazard to not have bath mats! I told the owner about all these problems and got nothing resolved. I do think someone came into our room when we weren’t there but didn’t even leave a single bath mat which was the main thing I wanted so no one fell on this property!! Instead I was basically left with no issues resolved and feeling like my privacy was violated. Also the pull out was the worst! It was pretty much not useable! Last but not least when looking for the remote I found a size 7x men’s shirt behind the couch which really really makes you question the cleanliness of this condo. I mean I was already so disappointed that by this point nothing surprised me!!! ##### Linzy L. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### christy v. Nov 9, 2019 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### DIRTY in DISREPAIR Condo was DIRTY on arrival. Sand on floors, trash, dirty q-tip, etc under beds, mirrors, counters, appliances dirty. Called, response was quick and cleaning person was very nice but admitted she had not cleaned under beds in over a month. Better but still dirty after she left. USED VASELINE CONTAINER under the master bed and sand in bunk beds after second cleaning. Washer has mold. Small holes in walls, large area of patchwork in bathroom unpainted. Wood support piece missing from dining chair. Screws on floor from bar chair, extremely wobbly, a definite SAFETY ISSUE. Would have fallen had one of my children sat on it. Coffee table coming apart. Cleaning lady tightened screws so it wouldn't collapse. Just general disrepair. Could have used extra towels, no toaster. Elevators extremely slow. 5 full elevators before we could get on on weekend on the off season. That would have been okay if not for the condition of the condo. Beach extremely crowded. But better if you walk 2 or 3 smaller resorts down past Pineapple Willie's. It is ocean front but at an angle facing the pool. This is fine, but if you like to hear the Ocean know that it is drowned out by the sound of the pool (even at night when it is closed). Photos make it appear that there are large windows in the bedrooms. We thought initially those were ocean front, but they are not. On the positive, beds were comfortable in main bedrooms (bunk bed mattresses worn, need replaced) and the beach/water was beautiful. Pool was nice but crowded (difficult to find chairs). Complex itself needs some maintenance. I contacted owner about the condition of the condo SEVERAL time before leaving this review with ZERO response. It's obvious that after he had our money he didn't care. Very disappointed. We take a Gulf beach vacations yearly and this was the worst place we have stayed. DO NOT RECOMMEND. There are other places that are cleaner in better condition for the money. ##### christy v.

The Shores of Panama is a lovely resort, the pool is very inviting and relaxing! You do have to purchase wrist bands at the front desk to use any of the resort amenities or even get to the beach without going to a public beach access, which is not stated in the owner's description or in the rental agreement. He did however return the $241+ that was spent on wrist bands after our return home. As far as the condition of the condo, I recommend that on the day you check in you take pictures of the condo and send to the owner. Strip the beds and take pictures of the mattresses as well. I followed the housekeeping requirements for deposit return by stripping the sheets and mattress pads to prepare for washing by the cleaning crew. When I did this, the master bedroom mattress had a stain on it where I had been sleeping the entire week. After returning home, I inquired about my deposit return and the owner emailed pictures of the mattress to me that his cleaning crew sent to him about this stain. If the cleaning crew noticed, the sheets nor the top of the mattress pad had this stain, therefor it could not have been from our stay. He has yet to reply to me regarding this and I still have no deposit. I have rented through VRBO for many years and have never had a problem. Also, upon our arrival, the cleaning crew informed us that the dryer was not working. I contacted the owner and it was not repaired until Thursday afternoon. We were there from Saturday-Thursday with no dryer, 4 adults and 2 children. Be sure to check the dishes before you use them as well, many were dirty and needed rewashing. The condo is not as well maintained as some that I have stayed in. The condo is not Gulf Front, it is Gulf View, you can only see one direction and only a small portion of the beach. I specifically asked the owner if it was Gulf front and he said yes. You cannot see the west side of the beach from his balcony. We did have a nice vacation but am very disappointed not to get my deposit back. It has been over a week since we have checked out and still no contact back from the owner regarding this. ##### Kara E. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shorewalk Vacation Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Shorewalk-Vacation-Villas.h13316.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Palm-Beach.h20271.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach House Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-House-Key-West.h48713884.Hotel-Information) > > [Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Manalapan-Hotels-Eau-Palm-Beach-Resort-Spa.h8487.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Beach House, Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Hyatt-Vacation-Club-At-Beach-House.h857962.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Miramar-Beach-Hotels-Embarc-Sandestin.h1054729.Hotel-Information) > > [The Colony Hotel Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Colony-Hotel-Palm-Beach.h8074.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h4398.Hotel-Information) > > [Solterra Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Solterra-Resort.h18526478.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Port Canaveral, FL](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h1489240.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Beach Marriott Singer Island Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Singer-Island-Hotels-Palm-Beach-Marriott-Singer-Island-Beach-Resort-Spa.h449170.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Beachside Hotel & Suites Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Beachside-Hotel-Suites.h4995.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Best-Western-Cocoa-Beach-Hotel-Suites.h18029.Hotel-Information) > > [PGA National Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Gardens-Hotels-PGA-National-Resort-And-Spa.h10355.Hotel-Information) > > [Tranquility Bay Beachfront Hotel and Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Tranquility-Bay-Beachfront-Hotel-And-Resort.h117099.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Island Luxury | Home in Windsor Island Resort, Private Pool, Arcade](https://www.expedia.ca/Davenport-Hotels-Windsor-Island-Luxury-NEW-Home-In-Windsor-Island-Resort.h60809096.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Naples-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Coconut-Point-Resort-Spa.h792025.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Walk Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Ocean-Walk.h598390.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h894002.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort at Longboat Key Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-The-Resort-At-Longboat-Key-Club.h27542.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Resort at the Port](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Radisson-Resort-At-The-Port.h4692.Hotel-Information) > > [Fiesta Key RV Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Long-Key-Hotels-Fiesta-Key-RV-Resort.h4578886.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahama House](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Bahama-House.h893658.Hotel-Information) > > [Vacation Village at Weston, Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Vacation-Village-At-Weston.h1062880.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Port-Canaveral.h15605.Hotel-Information) > > [Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-Largo-Hotels-Bakers-Cay-Resort-Key-Largo.h14042.Hotel-Information) > > [Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Pink-Shell-Beach-Resort-And-Marina.h15603.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h12537.Hotel-Information)
