Great spot to relax!

We enjoyed our stay. The property was quiet and on the less busy side of town (IMO). The furniture was soooooooo very comfortable, wow! Great kitchen space for making breakfast. Any issue, which was minimal, was meet with quick and courteous response. Would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful location

Wonderful place - just like the pictures. Well furnished -- we especially loved the deck chairs! Management was very responsive to an unusual issue (couldn't get the door code to work) -- it was resolved immediately with a temporary fix, and within an hour with a permanent fix.

Great stay

This property was a last minute trip plan and it was a really nice apartment on the beach and easy access to the rest of Panama. It is a little far from the big parts of Panama but still nice. I loved the private beach access almost no people and beautiful views definitely a good place to stay. Apartment itself was spacious and clean the only thing that was missing was some good knives and kitchen equipment for people who cook while on vacation but other than that I would definitely recommend this place.

Fanatastic stay, but check out time is not accurate

We had an awesome stay here, absolutely everything we hoped it would be! My only comment is the checkout instructions in the condo stated 9am, and everything electronic stated 10am checkout-the listing and the text from the rental property confirming check out instructions. Not a huge deal, but would be good to make sure check out time is crystal clear!

Celebrating retirement at my favorite place. The Beach.

Could not have asked for a cleaner place. Great location. Had everything you could need for a comfortable beach trip. Will be back. Only issue was that we were not sent code to access condo. Text message handled quickly to resolve the issue.

Girls getaway

Condo unit was clean and comfortable. Overall disappointed with Gulf Gate due to maintenance needs of building. Buildiing is certainly showing it's age. Chunks of stucco missing. Pool tile cracked and piece missing.

Great, Convenient Stay

The building itself is showing a little age, but is very well maintained. Elevator wasn’t crowded and was pretty quick. Parking was super easy and so close to the building. The pool and area around the pool was cleaned daily. The condo room was clean, and well decorated and had everything we needed. The couch and chase lounge are amazingly comfortable and the unit offered plenty of space for our family if 5. Access to the beach is so close and easy to get to, so much better than a lot of high rise buildings in the area. The oven took its time while baking so, not really sure what’s going on with that but the kitchen did have everything we needed. Sometimes the washer would pause during the wash cycle, so I think that must just be a delay setting but I couldn’t get that feature turned off. We would book here again. Thanks for sharing your great place with our family.

Amazing!

Our family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our week here! The place was spotless, tastefully decorated and relatively quiet considering a multi-unit building. There were plenty of luggage carts when loading and unloading and the elevator was always available when needed. We were told that a parking pass would be available in the unit when we arrived, but it was not. After a few messages back and forth, we were instructed to get it from the office on the main floor which was quick and easy. The beds were comfortable, there was plenty of hot water, and all the appliances worked well. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware & utensils. The balcony rocking chairs were awesome, as was the view. Wish every vacation stay could be this dreamy! Managed by Blue Swell - which I did not know when booking- and received many more automated texts and emails than I would have preferred. I only communicated via VRBO and replies were always kind and timely.

Relaxing beachside stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This stay did not disappoint. Even the back bedroom with its french doors to the living area had a view of the Gulf. Bed and sofa were very comfortable. Kitchen had most of what you'd need. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance or a short drive. Big shower (two head, with room for two) in master bath was nice after a day on the beach. Negatives were minor, TV in living area could stream, but could not receive cable channels, and had to message management for the WiFi password which they sent within a few hours. Would have been nice to have an extra trash bag for the trash can. As is common now, kitchen will have no consumables. Bring your own coffee, salt, pepper, etc.

Bed bugs

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We got there 30 mins before checkin time called the property manager and asked if it’s ok to go in and use the restrooms. I drove down with a family of 6 from Atlanta. Kids and old people but they said the property was not ready still needed cleaning. We were literally standing at the front door there was no one there cleaning. So I had to pack everyone back in and drive to a close be gas station. My youngest daughter slept in the top bunk and woke up with bed bug bites alll over her body that was not fun. My oldest had bug bites all over her legs as well. In the pictures the property seemed very right and updated, nope the property was very old and and dated. The bathrooms and rooms were very dark. Location was great but the property was a bust.
