About the owner: I love the beach and everything about it! To me, the beach is not a place, it's a feeling. When my car nears the condo, my heart beats faster, then, I immediately relax and become one with the world.
Why this property? THE VIEWS FROM THE BALCONY!!

You would not be disappointed if you stayed here.Great host too. Thanks Karen!!!!

Roxanne B.Clean Condo with Spectacular Ocean Views
The hosts are kind, hospitable, and very responsive to issues, the condo is very clean, but needs some minor updating. But to be honest, the beach is far from quiet. It's too busy, lots of people, boats come to shore and blow horns and shoot canons. People are shining lights at night on the beach, setting off fireworks, making lots of noise. Fighter jets do daily rounds up and down this beach several times a day plus multiple helicopters go back and forth. Not a peaceful beach. The best part of my stay was hanging out on this wide rounded balcony where you can see both sunrises and sunsets.

Marie S.Best view on the Beach
I have stayed at both of this owners property and was very pleased. I just wanted to say, this Condo and the Owner are the best on the Beach. Love this property, it is very homey and comfortable, and extremely clean. I will be coming back to this property as often as I can. Please check these condos out, you won’t be disappointed. Very,Very Nice !!

Frank L.FUNTASTIC
The condo is super clean and the beach access is easy and seconds from the pool deck. We have stayed in many Florida beach rentals all up and down the two Florida coasts and this beautiful condo is pure relaxation ..Jimmy Buffett would be proud to spend a week in this lovely condo .

Cathie C.GREAT LOCATION & WONDERFUL BEACH ACCESS!!
First time that the "girl's trip" had five (5) glorious days of sunshine!! Location of this condo is fabulous as is the access to the beach. Condo had all the modern amenities. Covered parking for your automobile. Wonderful place to vacation!

Thank you for your comments. Although, I have nothing to do with the sunshine, I always hope for the best weather for my guests!! Our complex is in a great location: close enough to everything, yet far enough away for quietness. Helping our guests have a great experience is what I can do and I love to do! I'm glad to have met your expectations. Thank you again! Karen
Marci B.Great stay!
Thanks so much! We had a blast! Loved having all the space. My teenage boys loved having their own room and not the bunks this year! I enjoyed having the master with a view! The balcony is big and another nice space to relax. We played cards as a family and there was plenty of space. Very clean! Thanks sooo much Karen!

Thank YOU for trusting us with your vacation! I am so glad your boys found the space they needed. We changed the full beds to queen beds this year and have had only great comments since doing so. This condo is a good fit for families because of the space and the large dining table. Thank you again! We'll look forward to hearing from you soon. Karen
Amanda B.Easy, relaxing, Stress-free vacation
We came to this condo the Thursday before Memorial Day Weekend. We expected a crowd and was not looking forward to the traffic. But thankfully, due to the location of this condo we didn't have to deal with the bumper to bumper traffic. The back roads are easily accessible. The condo was located on the 13th floor and the view was AMAZING! The condo was clean and the communication with the owner (Karen) was excellent! We parked on the 3rd floor parking deck and walked over the bridge to get to the elevators-never had an issue with the elevators. Our beach area was not nearly as crowded as some of the other areas were. We would definitely recommend and we would stay here again.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We use Churchwell Street, in front of the condo, for an easy route away from the traffic all the time! I'm glad you found it useful too! Our complex is small, with 3 high speed elevators, so your trip to the beach and back is easy too and, as you noted, not as crowded as other areas of the beach! Thanks again for your review. We look forward for your return!! Karen
GIGIE L H.Home away from home but with a great ocean view!
My sister and I stayed here for eight days and didn't want to leave. This place was very clean. I heard stories at the hot tub from others who had to wear shoes or they'd have black feet on the bottoms because of their dirty floors. The balcony was huge and so nice we were often on it with our binoculars. The kitchen had all the items you'd need to cook meals if you wanted to. Spices were also a surprise. Of course we ate on the balcony. :-) The two bathrooms were set up with lotions, conditioners, shampoo and soap to get you started. Very nicely decorated just like the pictures online. Karen was so quick to respond with answers and I really appreciated it. I am so happy that we chose to stay at #1304 because it was clean and nice and the recliners were so comfortable. There is a sound system in the living room too. My sister and I will be back. We did love Saltwater Grill for Early Bird, Sandbar is a low key but great food and music, Harpoon Harrys, which is pricey but right on the beach and good food, and Uncle Ernie's Bayfront Grill very good. Go early or you will wait. Stay here at either one of their condos and you will be happy you did!

Carla F.AMAZING stay
This was an awesome place to stay. The condo was very clean, bedrooms were beautiful and very comfortable. The balcony was very roomy and never felt crowded. Enjoyed seeing the sea life from the balcony as well. Plenty of room for cooking and eating at the table. Would highly recommend this place to anyone and the owners were very easy to work with.

Thank you for your awesome review! We are grateful to be able to share our "little piece of heaven" with guests like you! When I'm at the condo and not working to make it the best it can be, the balcony is where I spend most of my time; from early in the morning until late at night, the solitude of the day, the shifts in the sound and heights of the waves and the variety of sea life and human life to watch is truly amazing. I'm glad you were able to experience the same. Thanks again! Karen

Nellie B.Home away from home
Our stay was fabulous!!! We stayed in Condo 1304 (Ocean Villa). The check-in and out was great very detailed and understanding. A big balcony, living room, full kitchen with everything you need, master bedroom with a comfortable king size bed, guess bedroom with two beds, two full baths, and a laundry room. Don’t let me forget the heated pool and hot tub very relaxing. The security was great on their job at all times. The owner Mrs.Karen treated me as if she knew me not a stranger. She is very nice and professional made sure everything was as we expected and more. This is the place to stay WE LOVED IT!!!

Tom J.Good Location Nice Balcony
My wife is unable to go to the beach much so we always look for a private balcony. This unit fit the bill. Balcony is large and private. Unit was clean and comfortable. Appliances could use updating but no issues with them. Owner was great to work with and we love the location.
Stayed: February 2021 Submitted: March 03, 2021
Owner response
We love our large and private balcony just about as much as we love the beach! We work hard to keep our units clean and comfortable by updating often! This year's updating was new mattresses for every bed, in both condos, and new sofa/sleepers. Next year, we hope to update the appliances in both condos and are in the process of figuring out the logistics--not an easy task when there are not many days available that the condos are not rented! Thank you for your review! Karen
Gina U.EXACTLY what you're hoping for!
5 STARS! 2nd time at Karen's 13th floor condo! It's everything it's supposed to be, and more! Safe, clean, open, comfortable, private....perfect!!! My husband and I and our adult daughters love this condo! The spacious balcony view -- and their chairs, loungers, rockers are comfy and perfect! Such an 'at home' feeling, you really do feel like it is 'your place'! Roomy and comfy watching football inside, too! The location is perfect, great food & shopping soooo close; hot tub is especially great at night in the not so hot months! My daughter and I even played tennis at the fantastic Frank Brown park which was a short car ride away.Really appreciate the personal touch and personal attention of Karen. Wondering if we can fit another trip back to 1304 before late Spring!

Stephen Thomas S.Excellent Condition, Fantastic Views, On the Beach, Very Comfortable
Karen is so easy to work with and always accommodating. The deck on this unit is huge and has very comfortable furniture. The condo was clean, well equipped, and convenient to restaurants and shopping (Walmart is within walking distance). The best is the La z boy recliners in the living area. Overall, an excellent experience. This is our second time to rent with Karen, and we have already made reservations for next year.

I have rented with this owner 3 years in a row! I was blown away with how clean and accommodating this condo is. What you see is what you get!! I have never been disappointed in my stay. After booking with this owner for the time that I have I feel as though I have a close friend connection in Florida! I will continue to book with them for as long as I visit Panama City! I would never stay anywhere else.

Matthew E.Best choice we could have made for our first PCB vacation!
Our first time at Panama City Beach and we couldn't have asked for more. We didn't know what to expect but our condo was very comfortable, had everything we needed and more than we expected. We cooked in most days and only ate out 3 times and the kitchen was stocked with all we needed to feel at home. The large balcony was a hit for the family, the beds were extremely comfortable and I loved the La-Z-Boy recliners. By the way, Best Pizza On The Beach has great pizza! Also, Captain Anderson's and Pineapple Willie's were great suggestions by Karen and worth the money paid for the meals! We rented a pontoon at the state park and made our way to Shell Island which was a highlight of the trip - highly recommend! I loved the dry sauna and we all enjoyed the pools and hot tub. Karen was great to work with and calmed our concerns about Covid-19. She made the experience easy, convenient, and she also provided tons of helpful hints on enjoying our vacation. We printed every page she sent by email and used the suggestions given for restaurants, activities, and advice. Thanks Karen for being a great host and we look forward to staying at your condo again! We had no worries and were able to really relax and enjoy our vacation to the fullest!

As a guest's favorite, I'll have to add Best Pizza on the Beach to my list of places to eat! Thank you for being such great guests! We'll see you soon! Karen
Teresa G.A perfect beach vacation
My family stayed at this wonderful property the first week of June. Everything was wonderful. Great views, comfortable beds, and all items need to prepare meals daily. Karen was wonderful and accommodating. I originally planned a trip for Spring Break but needed to cancel due to the Covoid-19 shutdowns. Karen allowed us to use the funds from that booking on our summer trip. The beach and pool were wonderful. Everything we needed was in walking distance. We will plan to come again.

I am humbled to know we have provided a perfect beach vacation for you and your family. Waiting to get my toes in the sand and the sound of the waves into my soul is the hardest part of preparing for a return to the beach! Having everything available when I get there is one less thing I have to do or pack to get that relaxing, peaceful feeling started as soon as possible!! I look forward to hearing from you as soon as you have the yearning to return! Thanks again! Karen
Shawn C.Heaven on the Beach
We 100% enjoyed our stay here. Everything was clean & orderly. The beds were comfortable and it overall felt even better than home! This condo is perfectly located to food and shopping which made it very convenient to get anything we needed. My favorite part was the balcony! Very large and private compared to other buildings. We will definitely be back!

We are so glad you enjoyed your visit and look forward to your return! When we purchased these mattresses, we liked them so much, we purchased them for our home, too! Pure comfort! If not lazing in the bed, the balcony is the next perfect place to pass the time relaxing! I could spend days there!! Thanks again for taking the time to review our favorite place! Karen
Jo & John Emary, K.What a wonderful place to stay!!!
The condo was exactly as pictured and immaculately clean! The kitchen was well stocked in terms of appliances, pots, pans, dishes, silverware, utensils, etc. The refrigerator had an ice-maker (important to us). The balcony was AMAZING and roomy - a great place for a family to hang out. Early May 2019 (right after biker week) was very quiet and the traffic was light. We only had one issue with internet connection and the owner (Karen) called back immediately to walk us through what to do.Karen is a gem to work with! She runs her condo rentals like a business (easy and clear to understand rental expectations), but with great personal touches such as an entire detailed packet of what to do for both couples and families, and best places to eat (and we rarely tried anything that was not on their list and were not disappointed!). Our full security deposit arrived to our home before we could get our suitcases unpacked.We HIGHLY recommend renting either of Karen and Jerry's condos at Ocean Villa! We plan to go there as often as we can break away!
