**Renovation Update: **
The Sunbird is undergoing renovation of the building's windows and sliding doors. Our rates for 2023 reflect a discount to compensate for any noise or inconvenience caused by this project. Please note the main and west pools may not be available during your stay. To compensate for this inconvenience, a set of beach lounge chairs is included with your reservation.

The complex consists of two separate buildings: an East building and West building which are separated by the main pool. Work is currently under way in the East building. Work will begin on the West building at the end of May 2023. Our unit, 706W, is located in the center of the West building. We anticipate it will not be directly affected until Aug 2023. We have blocked out the time frame the unit will be directly involved with this work and will open additional dates as we receive updates on the project. Please contact us with any concerns.

Unique Benefits

We fell in love with Panama City Beach during our very first visit. The white sand is so soft and doesn't get as warm as the darker sand. We also fell in love with the Sunbird, because it is a smaller complex making it much more private, right on the beach, and right next door to the famous Pineapple Willy's restaurant. We also love the views from the balcony where you can enjoy your morning coffee with the sunrise and your evening cocktail with the sunsets. The PCB sunsets are just breath-taking! There is nothing like the sound and motion of the ocean to bring calmness of mind.

Why Kids Love It

The beach is always a fun place for kids. Being a smaller complex, the Sunbird beach is less crowded making it more suitable for young families. Our one-bedroom unit is also perfect for couples!
