Best Beach Getaways

“Really good location and amenities. Overall clean place to stay. There were a few issues such as the air mattress being stained and the sofa bed not being very clean. Also the smoke detectors kept going off. They were supposed to send someone out but no one ever came.”

“The place was clean, tidy, had all the sheets and even little bags of toiletries which was nice. Easy to cook in. The location was also great. The beach had a private entrance in walking distance, and there was also a surfing school in walking distance that we tried out. Wonderful stay. My only issue was communication. Our gps took us to a neighborhood and I reached out to multiple numbers to figure out how to get in and heard back from no one. Luckily someone let us in and then we found we didn’t have to go that way. Also the dvd player didn’t have a remote and they said they had to order one. Only those two things, which in the long run were very minor to a great stay.”

“The house instructions gave a list of numbers to call if we needed anything. Every single one of the numbers were out of service or did not work. They gave us the wrong gate code. The booking said that the third room would have two twin beds, but it gave us bunkbeds (with broken drawer). The showerhead was broken and did not have much water pressure. They provided only two rolls of toilet paper for a “six day eight person” stay. There were only two trash bags provided, and we tried to call for housekeeping. The number was out of service as well.”

“Nice place we'll likely try and stay at again now that we're familiar with the property. It's in Tops'l and some things aren't available to you if you book through Airbnb vs. other management companies. The only real problem I can see is the ridiculous restrictions on shelters on the beach - basically if you want to stay on the beach a few hours, just rent their chairs and umbrellas.”

“Overall, the experience was okay. The location of the condo was nice, and we really enjoyed the lazy river. However, it did close earlier than expected, and the gentleman working at night was extremely rude to my husband. As for the condo itself, the floors were extremely dirty. The very first day, just walking around barefoot caused our feet to become noticeably dirty. There was a Keurig machine available, but no coffee, sugar were provided, even for guests bringing their own pods. The layout of the condo was nice, and there was plenty of space for sleeping arrangements. However, the master bedroom did not have adequate window coverings to block out the sunlight. As soon as the sun rose, the room became extremely bright and very hot, making it virtually impossible to sleep past sunrise. The master bed was also extremely hard and uncomfortable to sleep on. the front door does not shut properly unless it is slammed or allowed to slam on its own.”

“The Panama City San Vincente St. house- Upon arrival the house seemed perfect for us. As I walked through I noticed alot of built up dust on fans, vents, door jams, etc. I was satisfied with the house otherwise so I chose not to complain. However, we had no hot water our entire stay. We complained multiple times about this and it was fixed on our very last day there. We had a house full of family and babies that we had to boil hot water just to bathe them. On our last day there, we had a wedding to attend, which was the reason for our trip. We had to rent a hotel just to all be able to take a hot shower. Maintenance replaced a part on the hot water heater on Monday late afternoon and no one even notified us it was fixed. I asked host for some type of compensation for the inconvenience and they just never responded. Airbnb contacted them with no response either. This put the biggest damper on our vacation and a complete waste of money.”

“We were very upset with the conditions of this unit. Spent more time on the phone with them than we did at the beach. Only thing nice about this place was the view. Doesn’t look like the pictures, balcony furniture missing, not clean, very outdated, broken furniture, sheets weren’t washed had urine and puke on them. Pillows look like they were 20 years old with long s of stains. Called the after hours number only to find out no one could bring us bedding to sleep on had to go buy our own. Said they would send someone out to clean the next day but no one ever showed up. We had to clean it ourselves because it was so nasty. Mold in the shower very disgusting. We travel a lot and this was the worst place we have ever stayed. The smell in the unit would knock you down just walking in the door. This place needs a complete makeover before renting out again. Definitely need to hire better cleaning staff.”

“Room was beautiful with a beautiful views. There was only one working elevator a couple times during our stay. The elevators took a very long time to use. My mother is elderly so stairs are not an option. Room had a lot of light bulbs burnt out including the patio light. The kids bedroom stayed at 76 degrees out entire stay unless door was open and fans were going. The locks on the patio doors were very hard to use. Again an elderly woman couldn't get them open. The sink in the guest bathroom didn't drain well. The heated pool had the heater broke so the water for the pool was a cold plug ice bath.”

“I wish I could say I was happy with this day. If you were going to be staying here prepared to be bringing everything you need!! They just have a reg. Coffee pot,but they don’t provide coffee filters. Or coffee. … no salt no pepper two pods to do laundry and two to do dishes. I would definitely not recommend this place if you’re going be there for more than 3 days. I was there almost a week. No trash bags were provided. No instructions on what to do with the trash. Communication was extremely disappointing. There were curtain, rods, broken, and wet boards behind the bed. I wish I could say more, but I could go on and on. I definitely will not be staying here again. I will go with the people who rent the properties next to us. Same building way better amenities if you’re going to just be there for the weekend, go ahead, but remember, they do not have staples in the kitchen or anything for you… if you want your coffee out of a Keurig, you must bring your own and pods. Highly unsatisfied.”

“We had a terrible experience with this rental. The place was missing pots/pans, a coffee maker, a microwave. It didn’t match the photos at all. There was unfinished maintenance such as exposed electrical units. We needed to cancel our stay due to concerns and would not recommend this listing to anyone.”
