Meh...

Overall location was great, and a decent setup. However... conditions made it a not so great experience. The Carpet made your feet black instantly if you don't wear shoes. TV in the Master bedroom would not connect to anything except the dvd player...but who brings dvd's? The Blinds in the master were all broken, so you could not shut them for privacy and anyone on the balcony can see right in at all times... There was constriction the entire time on the building, with workers from Sun up to Sun down with Jackhammers chiseling on every floor, so you literally could not hang out in the room to rest and relax. would have been nice to know before booking.... Also, construction work on the room next door the whole time, but those guys were drowned out by the jackhammers all day.

Summer Vacation

We stayed 3 nights at the Hidden Dunes of Panama. We enjoyed our stay and loved being waterfront. The pool, parking, and restaurant were all great additions to our stay.

BAD CONDO

Beautiful 20th floor view of gulf

Dunes of Panama amenities were nice and the view was amazing. The condo itself wasn't the best. Master bed was the hardest bed that I have ever slept in. We actually cut our trip short by 1 day and came back early because I couldn't bare to try to sleep in that bed again. Master bath tub wouldn't drain properly. Kitchen has basic supplies for a week long stay.

Great views

Both sides of the condo offered great views. One side had ocean views, th other had inland lagoons and bulk of PCB. Unit is a little dated and could use a face-lift. I would stay again.

Good for family, couples. Weekend get away.

Property was clean and well stocked. Only issue I had was voiced in other reviews. Master bed was like sleeping on a concrete slab. Absolutely no sleep our first night. Moved to the second bedroom next night. Much better comfort.

Not recommended 2020

Overall an ok experience a few issues with checking in because the onsite staff had no idea what was going on and said to contact the property manager, whom never replied. Luckily we found a nice person willing to help us! The room was an ok experience but to be fair was not very clean. Shower curtain has mold on the bottom of it, the ceiling was falling apart in the hall, left over beer bottles from the group before us, just not worth the money. We will steer clear in the future!

This is our 2nd time staying here. And we loved it. The Dunes is very clean and nice.

We stayed here before and loved it. This time was just as nice. We love Thomas Dr. It is much quieter. And the Dunes is a clean and nice complex. We left the Saturday before Michael hit. Just praying for all who lost homes.

Pleasant

We had another wonderful stay at the Dunes. I've lost count of how many times we've stayed over the years in multiple condos. This was reasonably priced and the only reason I'm not giving it a five star is because I felt that some furniture upgrades in the bedrooms could be made but again we paid less a night to stay with a beach view verses any hotel which would cost you more. It was comfortable and served its purpose. The view is amazing on the higher floors. I prefer a view looking straight out to the ocean and this condo you can actually see in the other condos and people on their balconies but all in all can't complain. I would definitely stay in this unit again if the price is right!

Loved the view, but needs a deep clean and new bedding

Condo was decent but for the price, we expected much better. We didn’t have pillow cases for the hide-a-beds and had to use t-shirts to cover them (stained and frankly, pretty gross). The master bedroom mattress was extremely uncomfortable and just had sheets and a very thin bedspread (which had several stains). There was a blanket in the closet, but honestly, I worried that it hadn’t been washed. I was thrilled to have a washer-dryer, but there was so much mold that our laundry smelled musty and I ended having to re-wash everything when I got home. Elevator was broken down a few times during the stay and when it was up and running, it was very loud and a little nerve-racking as we were on 20th. Overall, great vacation, but condo needs some serious cleaning, new and enough bedding for all beds.

I enjoyed the view, and the accessibility to the beach.

The experience was great. When I walked into the doors to the room we were staying in, I was highly impressed on how nice it looked inside. The view was incredible & my family loved the vacation overall.

We had an amazing time and cannot thank Dorothy enough. The view was amazing, we had everything we needed and then some. LOL We LOVED the little closet with the extra beach toys, chairs, etc. Thank you also for all your patience in answering my questions. We plan to be back again next year......maybe twice. ;-) Thanks again!

Very well kept property!

Our stay was a pleasure, the apartment had everything we needed, including umbrella and beach chairs. It isn't near Pier Park, what wasn't a big deal for us. The only reason that I didn't give it a five stars was because the king mattress is really, really firm, and if you are not used to it, it's kind of uncomfortable. Dorothy is kind and friendly and let us check in early with no issues. We will stay in one of her properties for sure in the future!!!!

Loved it!

Really great place to stay! My only complaint is how hard the mattress was in the master bedroom. We actually went and bought a padded mattress topper to keep on the bed for our stay. Great people to rent from as well. We accidentally locked ourselves out of the room. They immediately answeeed my call and told me who could let us back in.

Fantastic view!!

Overall the condo was great! The dining room and living room set up allowed for a fantastic view of the ocean. The flip flop sofa in master bedroom worked great for our young daughter. The owner was extremely easy and nice to work with. The master bath shower was not working on arrival but Dorothy was quick to fix the problem and even called after the fact to make sure we were taken care of. The condo was very clean which can be hard to do with so much sand being tracked in. We were very pleased with our stay.
