Palm Getaway

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!

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us. The pet fee is per stay and ranges between $150 and $200, depending on the bedroom count, and will apply for each additional dog.

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 The house is outdated but it was clean.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.

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

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.

Nice stay

Updated living room furniture. Adequate sleeping however master mattress seemed to have a dip in the middle. Was not aware there was no dishwasher. Location is close to the bay so easy access by water. The marina has a very tight loading and unloading area. Overall good value for the water access.

Great house if you have a boat

The location of the property is fantastic if you have a boat. I would highly recommend this location IF you have a boat. We brought our boat and had so much fun scalloping, fishing, snorkeling, swimming, and going to the beach! We take a lot of vacations and my kids all agreed this was one of the best because there were so many places to go and so many different things to do if you have a boat here. We had issues with the washing machine - it sounded like a freight train when it was on and the drain hose kept popping off and kept flooding the garage area so we had to constantly check the washing machine when it was running which was a pain. There were not many good things to cook with (no cutting board, only one very small skillet which made cooking a little difficult). The property management company was fantastic and very responsive when we had issues and called about the washing machine. Hopefully they will replace or repair the washing machine and this won’t be an issue anymore. The washing machine and cookware were why I rated it a 4. We are a family of 6 so both are very important to us. May not be as much of a big deal to others.

Good spot for larger groups and fisherman

Overall spot nice and quiet spot that's right on the water. Plenty of room and having the downstairs made it great for me to store fishing gear and rods close to the cars for easy loading for the early morning cast off times. The interior besides being a bit dated was pretty nice and clean. Only issues I had was the washing machine not working properly, it wouldn't drain or run spin cycles.

Amazing beach house

Booked for 2 weeks and extended a n additional week since our house was under construction. This property was amazing with easy access to the water and fishing. Home was cleaned the beds were comfortable and the neighbors were amazing. The bayside marina folks are amazing too they helped me everyday with obtaining gas for my boat frozen bait and were always up for a conversation. I have booked many houses and condos in the past and if you are looking for a super quite friendly clean fun neighborhood this is the place to stay. Will be booking this property again for sure in the very near future. Thanks for your hospitality.
