About this property

Oceanfront Family Resort ~ Pools! Pools! Sleeps 6 - 1BR 2BA FREE BEACH SERVICE

Escape to our stunning condo on the west end of Panama City Beach, where you will be directly on the ocean. This is a family resort with elite amenities and experiences. You’ll be greeted by a fully stocked kitchen, complete with everything you need to whip up delicious meals. This is a larger floor plan than most 1 bedroom units, with two full baths, a spacious living area, and a wide balcony with views our guests rave about.

You’ll have free beach service with an umbrella and two chairs (March-October). We also have luxurious balcony furnishings, dozens of videos and games, and a pack and play for your little one.

Emerald Beach is a full resort with Wyndham sharing areas of the property. There are three pools, one with a poolside bar, one with zero entry, and two with year-round heat. There is also a full-service popular SkyBar with nightly activities or music, a fitness center, Starbucks, shopping, outdoor grills and a game room.

The resort has the fastest elevators on the beach, and four of the eight elevators have just been replaced in a multi-million dollar project, making them not only fast but quiet. The other four will be replaced in 2025.

2024 upgrades to our condo include high-end chamber pillows (similar to Disney’s), a refreshed bunk bed area with cute privacy curtains and individual lighting, a pair of Frontgate loungers on the balcony and some new furnishings carefully selected for comfort. We have also just replaced the air conditioning system and it is icy-cold.

When you're ready to explore, you'll find an array of exciting attractions nearby. Step right outside to the Panama City Beaches, or hop in the car for a beautiful short drive to the Rosemary Beach area, or over to Pier Park, where you can shop, dine, and be entertained. We are also a mile away from the new Top Golf (coming soon) For a day of family fun, head to Shipwreck Island Waterpark, just a 4-minute drive away.

Whether you're seeking relaxation or adventure, this beachfront condo has it ALL. Our commitment is to help you create vacation memories to last a lifetime.

Note that this resort has strict security, and you must be 25 or older to rent. Emerald Beach is considered to be among Panama City Beach's most high-end resorts.

Perfect condo and location

We loved our stay! The condo was perfect and had all the amenities needed. Loved the view and the chairs on the balcony. Had a great selection of toys and boogie boards to enjoy at the beach. Perfect location and close to everything needed. Communication was also fantastic. Having two pools and a gym were a plus. Having the two reserved chairs on the beach was another bonus. The two beds in the hall were perfect for our kids. We would definitely stay here again!

Gorgeous View

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The view from the balcony is gorgeous. Location is perfect. Walking distance to everything we need but my favorite is the homemade ice cream shop across the street. The included chair rental is appreciated as well. We will definitely stay again. Thanks.

Beautiful View

We enjoyed our trip to this condo. The view was amazing to wake-up to. Melanie was a fast responder to text and messages when we had questions/issues. Things to note: if you don’t arrive on the beach early, you are not guaranteed a chair from the tiki hut. It is first come first serve but if you are there a week, you only have to get down there and reserve it on the first day - if there are any available. We wish we would have known this since it was a short trip. Melanie does provide chairs and an umbrella in the condo, but we didn’t want to lug it down. Also, the pool doesn’t have any umbrella’s! We would have sat up there but def needed some shade. The AC wouldn’t let us cool the condo to our liking since it is on a smart thermostats that doesn’t allow you to drop the AC past a certain point based on the temperature outside (per Melanie after we texted). And the vent in the bedroom doesn’t work well so we were hot while we were sleeping - fans are provided in the bedroom though. We would stay here again but would have wanted to know the above quirks :)

Nice Place . It is described honestly

We had a great time. Nice place. Clean, stocked with Everything u will need. Dishes, towels, videos. Master Bedroom is really Noisy with the clanking of the elevators. But if u keep TV turned up It covers most of the noise. But host was quick to respond to questions. She gave tips on shopping. Very nice place to spend your vacation.

Great location, great stay

Best beach location I’ve been to in 20 years. Room was great, easy access to beach and dining locations. Swam with stingrays, snorkeled with fish and watched dolphins swim on the beach on the first day. Will definitely be back to make more memories.

Amazing condo!

This place was super clean, it had everything we needed to enjoy our week vacation, the view was fantastic and the access to the beach was very nice. The only thing you need to be aware of is that it is next to the elevator, which in one way was super convenient, but we kind of heard it in the night. It was at walking distance to many good restaurants, and very close to pier park. I really loved staying at this place and would defiéndelo come back.

About the host

Hosted by Melly Clay

Host profile image
We are natives of Georgia who have spent many years vacationing on the nearby Florida panhandle. These days we love to share memories of our childhoods at Panama City by taking our children and grandchildren to the older establishments we remember so fondly such as Captain Anderson's and Goofy Golf. We also enjoy so much of the new - Pier Park, St. Andrews State Park, and a quick drive down 30A for lunch at Rosemary Beach. Follow our beach adventures on Instagram @thesolnest.

Why they chose this property

When we decided to buy in PCB, we looked at dozens of properties, and this treasure was our top choice by far. It's the perfect trifecta of location/amenities, decor that we love, and large and comfortable floorplan. We think you will adore it as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

Prime location on Front Beach Drive. Amenities are top notch, comparable to a 5-star resort, but with affordable rates.
