Family Vacation
The condo was great! Everything you need in the kitchen, plenty on seating in the living room, extra blankets and towels. The master bed was very comfortable and had plenty of room. The second bedroom was just as roomy. This is our second time at Watercrest but first time staying in this condo. We love it there and the atmosphere of the area! We definitely plan to book with them again next year!

Beautiful condo
Wonderful week at the beach - this unit worked perfectly for us. Clean, comfy beds, and we loved the large balcony and great porch furniture! The railing already had mesh zip-tied around it so I didn’t have to use ours (3 year old grandson with us). We always love our stays at the Watercrest 👍

Great Condo for Vacation
We had a great time in PC! Last year we had so much fun that we wanted to stay at the same condo! It’s very clean, roomy, and we love the balcony. We did a little more cooking this year. The kitchen was stocked with pots and pans, dishes and utensils. Will recommend to others and we’ll be back!

Watercrest Review
We’ve been going to Watercrest and the condo buildings next door (Nautical Watch) for the past 9 years on Memorial Day Weekend with family. This unit is probably one of the cleanest I’ve ever stayed in! Kudos to the owners and cleaning company for requiring such high standards, it is very much appreciated! My 6 year old really enjoyed the boogie boards left in the closet and going through the toys and games.
The included beach chairs are amazing as well!
If I had to say anything negative or that could be improved, the only thing would be that there was not any garbage bags that we could find after the one in the can was full and taken out, so we just used Walmart plastic bags for the remainder of the trip vs. going to buy some.
Thanks for a great place to stay and we will be back!

Perfect for my Family
We choice this condo based on the fact that it was available and we had other family staying in the complex as well. We were surprised to how perfect this unit was for our small family of 5. We had multiple rain days but over all we had a great time. Bess was a very helpful and always responded quickly to any questions. We will definitely be booking this condo unit again. Thanks Bess!!!

The property was everything it said it was. Very clean and well maintained, the views were the best and Mr. and Mrs. Meek were always available for us if we had to speak with them. The restaurants were all nearby and easy to get to. The condo was very comfortable and provided everything we needed to give us that home away from home feeling. This is our first time in Panama City and it was very enjoyable I would recommend this property to everyone wanting to get away and relax.
