GUEST ACCESS You have the entire house to yourself during your visit.
You have the entire house to yourself during your visit.
PLEASE NOTE: The Bayhouse Playhouse is a duplex property. Unit A is on the right side of the property.
I live just one mile away in case of emergency.
I respond to Airbnb messages between 8 am and 8 pm if you need anything at all, including recommendations. Otherwise, I will assume you are self-sufficient.
If there is an issue with your stay, please give me a chance to address it BEFORE I see it in the review! If I don't know, I can't make it better.
Only blocks from the bay in two directions, you're within walking distance to many great local restaurants, bars, shops, historic sites, and the St. Andrews Marina.
Take a boat from the marina over to Shell Island, or launch your own.
You're just 7-8 miles from the white sands of Panama City Beach but will sleep peacefully, far from the maddening crowds of tourists, their traffic, and noise.
Plus, you'll have access to neighborhood events, including the Farmer's Market every Saturday year-round (8 am - 1 pm), a huge Mardi Gras parade (usually early February), and a St. Patrick’s Day (and Halloween) pub crawl. We even elect a Dog as Mayor of St. Andrews on Salty Dog Day (last held in February 2020).
For a free, guided walking tour of Historic St. Andrews, visit the Panama City Publishing Co. Museum at 1134 Beck Avenue on Wednesday or Friday at 1:00 p.m.
Walk to almost everything in the neighborhood. Take your car to the beach across Hathaway Bridge.
If you're flying in, you will want to rent a car at the airport as a taxi ride is expensive. You'll also want car access for driving to area beaches, the state park, the grocery store, and other nearby destinations.
Panama City now has Uber! YAY!
CAMERA: A Ring Doorbell is installed outside for added safety and security (yours AND mine!). I have access to live and recorded video as needed. There are no other recording devices on the property.
BEACH GEAR The house has everything you need for fun in the sun: beach towels, beach chairs, and usually some floats and sand toys (selection varies). Please feel free to leave clean, usable beach gear (sand toys, floats, etc.) for the next guest if you don't want to lug it home with you.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.
