Surrounded by swaying palm fronds, this cottage is just steps from the famed Carousel Grocery store and restaurants, while the beach is less than a block away! Of course, you can enjoy gorgeous views of the Gulf right from your home's sun deck.

This cozy studio cottage feels lived-in and welcoming, with bright colors, unique, charming furnishings, and plenty of natural light.

Between the bed, sofa, and chairs there are plenty of places to relax with your friends and loved ones. This rental offers a good chance to unplug, but that doesn't mean you have to put aside modern convenience - with a large, smart TV and free WiFi, you can sit back and enjoy your favorite media as you prepare for another great day in the Gulf.

Enjoy intimate dinners with that special someone or your close friends at the indoor table for four or take in some sunshine and ocean air at the outdoor table, complete with an umbrella for shade. The compact kitchen has everything you need to whip up a delicious meal, with stainless steel appliances and surprisingly roomy countertops.

This cozy cottage's plush queen-size bed and comfy sofa bed let up to four guests have a good night's sleep. Each of the beds is located near wide windows, perfect for letting in morning light when you're ready to start the day. The sole bathroom is small, but warm and welcoming, with a shower to make sure everyone is refreshed after hitting the beach!

The soft sands, bright sun, and warm waters of Laguna Beach are just a block away, great for splashing around with the kids, sunbathing with your friends, or taking a romantic walk with that special someone. There's also a grocery store, Thomas Donuts restaurant, and souvenir shop within about a block from the cottage. More entertainment is just three miles down the road at Pier Park, a massive shopping and entertainment hub that offers plenty of amazing ways to spend an afternoon. Make it a day at home when you set up your volleyball game, horseshoes, or bean bag toss in the large side yard.

Just nine miles east of your home away from home lies the heart of Panama City Beach. In addition to more incredible beachfront to explore, you have access to amazing attractions like Ripley's Believe It Or Not Odditorium, the scientific exhibits of Wonderworks, and the wildlife of ZooWorld.

Weekend getaway
If you’re looking for a quiet beach trip this is the place. Just a short walk and you’re at the beach. The property was clean and well maintained. There was a slight problem with the key pad that caused a mild inconvenience but the property manager was on it and resolved it right away. I definitely recommend and I would stay again.

It’s right on the beach which is wonderful. It’s quiet and not attached to any other structures. Parking is included on site. There’s a dining table for 4 people which comes in handy. The bedroom area is open and not private from the living room area. It’s tiny and quaint, but sufficient for our needs. The bathroom on the other hand is very small and harder to navigate. The shower is very small. However, the bathroom is doable in exchange for the lovely scenery surrounding the area.

Perfect location, very close to beach access.
The cottage was clean. I had to buy toilet paper as there wasn't any when we arrived. Also bought air freshener right away because the place smelled like an ashtray and made me sick to my stomach. It was very clean though. Smaller than the pictures make it out, but it was fine for my husband and I. 1/2 block to beach access and if you look in the right area you can see the beach from the deck. Very quiet/private location. It is dated, needs some paint, less rugs (dingy) and furniture is not comfortable. Lounger seat in living room smelled like urine, threw a couple blankets over it. Bed is squishy soft, but we slept well in it. If you need a place to sleep and stay on the beach like we did, it was overall a nice stay. For the price, it was worth staying again especially if they update furniture.

Ok property for the amount even though the price was not just $40 a night but there is an additional resort fee tacked on to each night of stay. The property was relatively clean but dated and there was a horrible musty odor in the unit. Which made it hard to breath and triggered my allergy attack. I called Vacasa about it and they still haven't returned my call. Also the pictures show each room separately but there are no walls dividing the rooms, its basically like a studio apartment. The bedroom is right next to the kitchen which you can see directly into each room and the only separation is a pull down curtain. A few broken items which i also called about just to make sure I wasn't held responsible for them. Since i was the only person it was bearable but if there is more people there is no privacy. the air condition is a wall unit and if you keep the bathroom door close its hot as heck in there. I would not stay here again.

Sister trip perfect
My sister and I were looking for a reasonably priced place to stay in Laguna Beach area close to the beach. This was perfect. Small but comfortable; short walk to beach; close to our favorite restaurant, ice cream shop, and grocery store. Plan to stay there again!

Not as expected
This was listed as a ‘1 Bedroom.’ It isn’t. It is a studio. Had I known this, I would never have booked it. My husband and 2 teenage daughters arrived to find ‘no doors anywhere.’ The only place they could close was the tiny bathroom to change. Also, the only way this place is 1000 square feet is if they include the porch. When I contacted the owner and asked if we could trade to another available rental and pay the difference, I was told ‘I could rent the other if I wanted but I should have dealt with any issues BEFORE I arrived.’ How could I tell it was a studio from description and pictures is beyond me. They left the property after one night and spent the rest of the time in a 2 bedroom rental with another company. We lost the cost of this property and I refused to book the other place by the same company because I wasn’t going to give them any more money. I will be avoiding this company from now on. Never had trouble with VRBO before this.

Photos did not tell a complete story
It is a nice location, fairly close to the beach. Also very quiet but no one was staying near us. There is a great grocery store and donut store very close by. The towels were very nice and the hot water works very well. I was very disappointed with the actual property. Kitchen cabinets that were broken, a piece of linoleum in the bathroom completely unglued, the rugs were very dingy. The place was overall clean but many things needed to be updated such as the bathroom vanity and the rugs. Also there were little things missing that I found a bit irritating. No hairdryer, only one garbage bag, very little toilet paper, several glass surfaces but no Windex in order to clean them. I’ve stayed in several vacation rentals and this is my second Home Away. This is the first time that I literally felt ripped off and wish that I could receive a partial refund. If the photos had included things such as the loose linoleum or broken kitchen cabinets, I never would have stayed there.

Quiet Residential Area
There were a few small issues when I arrived. I had no contact information from the management company That was my concern. I resolved the issues myself. The rental property is fine considering the cost for the five days. It's quiet and close to the beach. This is an older property which is convenient to the west side of PCB.

Great Location
Cute little place with nice deck outside with a view of the water. Short walk to dunes and beach. Grocery store a five minute walk. Everything was very clean. It is an older property so has a bit of a lived in look with lots of pictures and other decorations. The window blinds work OK, but could use replacement. Nice private location surrounded by trees and bushes.

Overall stay was good - so close to beach, grocery store, etc. This cottage had all the amenities of a hotel room, but also a kitchen so we didn't have to eat out every meal.

No frills, but clean, cute, and great location.
This is a small, old cottage with no frills, but clean, decorated well, and has everything you need. It's 1/2 block walk from a beautiful, quiet beach. I have been to this beach different times of the year, and it's never crowded. It's a close drive to anything commercial that you might need/want. My only suggestion to owners would be to add a porch light for late returns, but, that being said, the flashlight on my phone kept us on track. The daily price was amazing, but be aware that the fees tacked on add up.

Great location!
Nice size property, very comfortable bed, & the best part was it’s a very short walk from the beach! The neighborhood was nice and calm with cute stores and restraunts all in walking distance! Away from the hustle and bustle of PCB but not far if that’s where you want to go. Only downfall was the cottage was very dated, and the baseboards and floors where very dingy looking, and the shower is so small it’s hard to move in, also no washer and dryer. All in all not bad for a short weekend getaway, but wouldn’t stay much longer then that.

Old Block Cottage (Cozy)
Pros: Huge side by side fridge Half a block to beach Nice deck Lots of lizards to keep the bugs down Cons: Window A/C needs shot of freon or replaced No umbrella on deck No washcloths All extension cords and wires should be placed in channel tubing Junk laying all around outside All in all we had a great time. Keep updating the place. It's stood the test of time. Go all out for updating it. Just don't expect Taj Mahal when you get there. Off the beaten path / can't see from roadway Bed was comfy

Neat, clean, nicely decorated, lots of options outdoors with two patios, grill
When we arrived owner was setting up condo with new stuff- blender, coffee maker, microwave, fan etc. she put a new pillow top on bed and it was very comfortable. Access to beach and very cool grocery made everything convenient. Great place for a couples getaway. Quiet community. Can hear the waves sitting on the deck in the evening.
