Unwind in the peaceful Gulf breeze at this waterfront Panama City Beach getaway. The perfect spot for fishing enthusiasts, jet skiers, and group trips, this home features a private 27-foot boat dock (two boats allowed), water views, and room for the family dog, too (for a small nightly fee).

Just steps from the water and a short drive from restaurants and shopping, this home makes it easy to water ski, cast a line, or enjoy the local attractions. From the dock, Shell Island is only a 10-minute boat ride away.

The nautical ambiance welcomes you in and sets a relaxing tone. Make a tropical cocktail and head out onto the deck to take in the water views while the free WiFi streams some gentle island tunes. Make a delicious fresh catch dish in the kitchen, and then end the day out on the dock.

Whether you're exploring the water or kicking back on the beach, this Panama City Beach home has something for everyone!

Bay front fun

A few girlfriends and I rented this place for a few nights. The place had everything we needed. Cute and clutter free design. To get to the house you pass a bunch of mobile homes. Once you get near the house it’s very cute! We all brought paddle boards, but couldn’t drop in off the property because the deck was to high up. We were able to drive a block to the marina (big blue building) and drop in there for 15. each. We spent hours paddling through the canals then hit the bay and turned left. Very pretty and protected land. We would definitely stay here again.

Soccer Tournament

We changed our booking and booked this place last minute due to a marathon and didn’t want to stay near traffic. The location is a little scetch, but was a good location and close to our soccer tournament. We saw multiple roaches. The floors are not cleaned well. Recliner was broken. No laundry machines. No dishwasher. The stairs are slanted walking to the property. Beds are comfy.

We loved the size of the house. Convenient to everything. Seeing the Aligator and Turtles at the pond was an added bonus. The steps and deck was the only negative part of the trip. The Deck boards need more support

Good for the price

The location in the bay is perfect for boating. The problem we had was we needed space for 2 big trucks and a huge boat trailer in the driveway. I messaged the owner and was told it was big enough. It really wasn't. The manager was attentive when we called the day of arrival. The house is outdated but it was clean. It had enough space for the two families. The kitchen was well stocked. There was great water pressure in the shower. We had a great time and were comfortable.

Boat Capable Location

A+ for me as the fisherman! Steps were a negative to the older persons in our group. All 3 mattress’s need an update. Dock pictures need updating as the dock layout is different than pictured and description, but I made it work for our boat. I would stay again, but my family would not choose to do so.

Great location if you bring a boat

The location and deck for the boat was great! House was very clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of room for our family. Kitchen did need some updates and was minimal on cookware. But overall it was very nice house. It was also great that we were allowed to bring our pets!! A word of caution- there is a small pond right in front of the house where you park. I walked my dogs in the grassy area in front of it. A guy stopped and spoke with my husband about there being an alligator in the pond. This person didn’t seem to live in the neighborhood so we weren’t sure whether to believe him. BUT, the very next day I spotted it! I have pictures. It didn’t appear to be a very big alligator, maybe 4ft long according to my husband, but still an alligator with no fence or anything else to keep it from coming on the grass or in the street. I had been walking my very small miniature schnauzer right there the whole trip and nobody said a word. If you bring your dog OR if you walk outside, just be aware.

Other than the toiletries being less that’s in the rental agreement (which management company resolved) and some minor issues such as kitchen over sink light not working. It was an excellent stay

Perfect location for a family that brings their boat to fish in the gulf. Big enough for a large family and close to everything. Very quiet neighborhood. Vacasa responds quickly to any concerns.

Family vacation

Absolutely loved renting this house for our family vacation. My son and husband love to fish so with access to the bay and location, they were content with their fishing options while me and the girls tried to enjoy some beach time. No complaints related to the cleanliness of the property, it was clean and ready for us to unpack and unwind after our 9 hour drive. Will definitely rent again and recommend to others!

Beautiful view

There are not enough words to describe how amazing it was to sit on the back porch of this home and enjoy the peaceful view of the water. On two separate occasions there were dolphins literally swimming in the back yard!!! The recliner in the front room was so comfy I could've slept in it. The house itself is charming and I would have loved to extend my vacation to stay here. Downside: there is no dishwasher even though there are notes about loading it and there were pods left on the counter. The beds only had sheets on them so we had to go to Walmart and buy blankets after the first night. The downstairs is more like a walled in garage, there is a ping pong table and a w/d with no access to the upstairs. In order to get to the living area there are several stairs on the exterior of the building. I wish that would have been in the listing since my dad had a hard time going up and down them in order to leave the home. Overall I would rate the house a 4/5 and would stay there again if my dad wasn't with us.

Visit with relatives

The house was very clean and well supplied. Beds were comfortable The location was great, with a nice view on the canal We came from Virginia and wanted a Place to stay near my husband’s relatives who live in the Bayside RV Park. This property was about a 3 Minute walk to their house A few more table lamps in the bedrooms and living room would be helpful. If you are considering renting this property, please be aware that all of the living area is upstairs and you will need to climb the stairs to get up into this unit )See the set of stairs in the photos).. The laundry area is on the bottom level. We liked having the key pad entry instead of having to use a key. We would rent again.
