I love Gulf Crest and stay there frequently. This was our first time staying in this unit and we will definitely do it again. Paula and her team were amazing!! The unit was lacking some essential kitchen supplies but Paula was on it and brought us everything that was requested. The room was clean and comfortable but tile floors are always hard to get super clean. The beds were very comfy and the kids raved that the bunk beds were too. The shower in the master bath was a plus too! Definitely a great stay and we will be back! Thank you Paula!

We had an amazing stay here! The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip. The view was unbeatable - nothing like waking up to the sound of the waves. The location was perfect too. Close to restaurants and shops but still peaceful and relaxing. The host was super friendly and responsive, which made check-in a breeze. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for the perfect Panama City Beach getaway!

This place was amazing…the view from inside the unit is gorgeous. And the balcony is one of the biggest I’ve ever seen. Also, it was located convenient to things but also secluded enough to feel relaxed. I would definitely come back…and hope to soon.

We love Gulf Crest and have stayed in this building before. This condo was in a great location for our family and the views were great. The condo could use some regular maintenance and a bit better cleaning on the gorgeous patio and windows looking out at the view. We did enjoy our stay here and would look at staying here again in the future.

Very nice place to spend time with family. Only thing I found wrong was there was no ladder to get onto top bunk bed. We had fun. The location was great, away from the big crowds. Very secure place! I will be back next year.

Perfect area for a beautiful view of the ocean and pool!

We love staying at Gulf Crest!! The pool area is always clean and security watches for safe playing for families with children. This condo unit was a perfect location. The kitchen does need some updating like the stove is old so the cooktop burners either cooks too fast or too slow and the oven temp is off too. The laundry dryer is set to shut off every 57 seconds with no notes to get clothes dry. The floors could have been cleaner upon arrival. Other than these few things...it was a wonderful stay. We would stay again.
