3rd Fl Luxury Beachfront w reserved parking 3rd fl original Best Vacation Ever

When comparing condos there is no comparison to this one! Amazing view, the thumbnail picture is view from private balcony and view from 2 great real beds- you don't get this with many others. So clean and full of luxury, no other studio like this. This is in a resort so a onetime resort fee for parking pass and armbands of $75 . This is charged by Shores of Panama for 1 parking pass and presently 4 armbands for as long as you are there, not a daily charge. We allow 3 adults but 4 people if a small family. You can now preorder your parking pass and bands.

If you are looking at Shores of Panama you may already know it is the best resort in the best location on Panama City Beach/Long Beach. The outdoor pool, hot tub, beach & landscape are unmatched. There is also an indoor heated pool, hot tub, The question is, why our condo over the others. We rented many units before making our purchase. We found the studio unit had the floor plan to see and hear the Gulf of Mexico from your bed. The studio was perfect for 2 to have luxury over the top . The 3rd floor gave the best view and convenient if you did not want to take the elevator. Reserved parking on 3rd floor makes unpacking easy, walk from your car to your condo no elevator needed. Fitness center is also on the 3rd floor. We purchased 2 memory foam beds, 1 soft and 1 firm so you pick to get the best nights sleep. While it has 2 beds it is luxury for adults. If you have children it requires extra care. This has leather double electric full recline sofa, must check it out!

First time staying at the Shores of Panama and renting from this owner. Check in was a breeze. The condo is BEAUTIFUL! The owner has maximized every inch of this space. Anything you could need or think of was there. I especially enjoyed the “couch” on the balcony. The condo was very clean and so was resort. Would stay again!!!

The unit was beautiful, cozy, and conveniently on the third level. High quality furniture and flooring, appliances, etc. Main issues include a water issue, leaving water on the floor near the balcony. The host was on top of this issue but it was an extra thing we tried to stay on top of as well. Other than that, there was a bag of spilled candy we found under the bed when we arrived. The host did say that she cleans the unit herself so there’s that. Otherwise, great stay and a great unit as far as the unit itself goes. I did, however, find the pool to be nasty. The water was murky and I removed globs of hair from the water every day. I also went on the beach very early one morning to find it completely trashed. Beer bottles and cans everywhere from partiers the night before. For these two reasons, I likely won’t return to shores of Panama or PCB in general.

The property is very nice, clean and very accurate to the listing. The parking is tight. The door locking system is tricky. But the location and amenities are fantastic.

So nice!

Check in was super easy. The assigned parking spot is close to the unit. The balcony was so nice & had an amazing view. I love all of the extras in the apartment like kitchen condiments & bathroom essentials. Great varieties of things to watch on the tv. It was the perfect amount of space & had everything we needed. Great communication with property manager as well. We will be back!
