The inviting, extra large balcony overlooks the gulf, the sandy beach and the awesome, tropical pool area below. It's the perfect space to enjoy your morning coffee while listening to the gentle sounds of the waves coming on to the beach. The resort at the Shores of Panama is truly amazing with the largest outdoor pool and pool area on the beach.

Amazing property and a better host
This Condo was such a joy for my group and I. We enjoyed the view, private beach, and proximity to other places. Our host, Nicholle, was a joy to work with, and kept great communication and support the whole stay. Would stay again!

Nice affordable place at PCB
The positives of this apartment include a clean condo, modern appliances, a nice view of the resort and ocean, beach chairs and umbrella included. Communication with property owner is wonderful. Negatives includes parking deck- you have to drive 12 flight up to get to parking space (but parking space is conveniently close to property entrance). It can be tedious to drive up or down the parking deck. The area of PCB is very congested driving area. The pool is not heated so if you come in an off season expect the water to be cool. There is a really nice sized hot tub but it was also very popular (at times crowded) because it was a bit chilly in the pool. Also, the main room bed and bunk beds are a bit squeaky and the frames are maybe a bit outdated though overall comfortable. The bunk bed room is a tight fit but it worked out for our family of 5 nonetheless. I would overall stay here again. The affordability and well kept accommodations make this place a great choice!

Great family trip
This was our kids first time visiting FL and the ocean. The condo was as nice with everything you would need for a trip. The fridge was new and always had ice. We loved the parking spot close to the actual unit. A huge win when traveling with a lot of stuff! The view was great and as pictured in the listing. The complex was busy due to the time of year however it didn’t really impact our stay. The chairs and umbrella on the beach were so convenient with kids! The host even checked in to make sure we didn’t have any issues getting the chairs. It was a great stay and we would definitely stay in this unit again!

March 2025
This place was perfect for our group. Very quaint and nicely decorated and right in the center of the hotel for a full beach view. Great location on the beach, right next to Pineapple Willeys, walking distance to Waffle House and across the street from Surf Style. The host, Nicholle, was great and promptly responded to all my questions. We arrived a little early and were able to reach out and check in earlier than expexted. I will definitely recommend this host and look in to staying here again in the future.I gave the cleanliness a 3 star because there was sand on the master bedroom comforter I had to shake off and a fake nail under the covers in the bed of the guest room. My only other con would be the fan in the master makes a loud clicking noise so I opted to not use it. Great place! Thank you for the stay.

Clean condo
The room met expectations. The location overall was great between the pool and beachfront. The elevator situation was rough with 5-10 min wait times and the parking garage could be crazy tight but typically we didn't have an issue going in and out.

Right on the beach!
Overall the condo was great. The location is perfect and right next to Pineapple Willy's (walking distance). I had a mishap when we arrived and the host answered the phone right away and handled it while on the phone with me so communication was perfect. The pool is beautiful and the indoor pool helped when the water outside was too cold. The beds were pretty comfortable and having a washer and dryer was amazing. I feel like there could have been extra trash bags but just make sure to buy some if you will be there a while. The only real issue's were the bunk bedrooms TV did not work which I emailed the host about. I do believe this condo was not cleaned properly. It is not the hosts fault, however, we paid a hefty cleaning fee to have sand on the floor when we got there. I think a new cleaning company is ideal. Other than that this condo was perfect! We had a great time!

Would not stay here again for the price we paid. Extremely overpriced for what you get. I will definitely rent a house next time. This place is old and run down. The elevators are a disaster and so is the parking. The surrounding areas are filled with trash and smells terrible. The condo itself was bare minimum, nothing great, cheaply maintained. The towel racks fall off the bathroom walls. The washer is molded. The curtain rods fell every time you tried to open the curtains. For the price you pay, you definitely expect more. It’s equivalent to a motel stay at Hilton price.

The unit was a nice little unit that fit my family's needs. The view off our balcony was amazing! The balcony was huge. The pool was wonderful. The only thing that we thought was a little weird that the master bathroom does not have a door.

Senior Trip
We had a wonderful time in Panama City. Our condo representative was super! We couldn't get the fan to work but after a call, she sent the maintenance right out! I really couldn't complain about the actual condo but the entire stay was crazy! They would not let anyone sit on the deck of the pool before 8 am. I was run off several times. Being a morning person I just wanted to sit out by the pool and read. Sorry, that was not allowed! The people at PCB were some of the rudest I've ever been around! We witnessed a couple of stolen seats of an elderly couple! With no remorse! We were on the beach taking pictures one evening and were asked to leave because this group of people wanted the spot we were taking pictures! I am from the Orange Beach area and wanted to stay at PCB once so we ventured out! Don't worry I won't be back! I know that it's not the PC people that were the problem but the kind of person that comes to stay at PC are lacking! I should have not gone looking for greener pastures!

Overall good experience
The owner and cleaning staff were great to work with when we ran into a couple of issues when first arriving at the condo and made it right! The condo is in walking distance for whatever you may need on your trip such as groceries, restaurants, nightlife, and more! We always try to stay at the Shores of Panama and were happy with our stay! Hope to visit this condo again soon.

As advertised. Met our needs
Property was clean. Build quality of the condo was just average. Liked-washer/dryer, pool, live music downstairs, fitness rooms, quiet, satellite TV, Didn't like-Front door lock, 12 floors of stairs (forget trying to use elevators if crowded), parking garage-very tight and dangerous to maneuver,
