About this property

Now booking for 2024! Pet friendly, quiet.

Portside Resort is an established “family friendly” complex with 16 acres of palm trees, 3 swimming pools (one heated for year round swimming), a baby pool, hot tub (also accessible year round), fitness center, shuffleboard and 3 tennis courts - with easy access to the beautiful, white sandy beach across the street. Great for walking, riding bikes throughout the tropical condo area. It is located on the desirable west end of Panama City Beach, only 15 minutes from our international airport. It is within 3 miles of Pier Park with all its specialty shops, Grand Theater, and restaurants overlooking the gulf. Frank Brown Park is 5 minutes away with its own huge pool, tennis courts, baseball and softball fields and lots of walking trails. Two four star restaurants are within 2 miles, with great seafood! McDonalds, Winn Dixie, and Walmart are just a few minutes away. Also close are: golf courses, miniature golf, Gulf World, Zoo World, Wonder Works and Ripley's Believe It Or Not. You can rent scooters, jet skis or go parasailing if you wish. Also, Sandestin with it’s famous outlet mall is 30 minutes away. Our unit is located in the middle of the complex, between the tennis courts and the back pool. It has the advantage of being a little more quiet than the front area, and still within easy walking distance to the beach. The patio faces a beautiful lagoon with the back pool on the other side of the wetlands. Our Master Bedroom has a queen bed with a private balcony; the second bedroom has one twin and a twin over full bunk bed. Both rooms have their own TVs w DVD capability. The full bath adjoins both rooms, with a separate vanity in the Master suite. The large first floor living area opens onto a patio, and has a pull out sofa, dining seating for 6 plus a breakfast bar, and a fully furnished kitchen with microwave, blender, ice maker, and coffee maker...no Keurig. There is a brand new air conditioner, a TV in each room with basic cable, and high speed internet w WiFi. The whole downstairs is set up for family fun and games, as well as easy access to food! Bedrooms and full bath are on the second floor of the townhouse condo. Half bath is located on first floor. We are pet friendly (for a well-behaved dogs up to 20 lbs). Sorry...no cats. We invite you to come and bring your family for a truly memorable vacation. There is certainly something here for everyone! This is a non-smoking unit. Smoking is only allowed outside on the patio area.

Good location
The pools and hot tub are very nice and my children enjoyed having an option of which pool to swim in. Even on days where the beach was closed, the swim area never seemed too crowded. The beach was across the street, just a few blocks due to the rental being towards the middle of the property. We had no issues with communication. The grout for the tile on the lower level was painted black and not carried through the entire floor, the walls needed updating with paint, the doors all stuck and the master door actually would not open by the time we left our 6 night stay. There were 2 different door knobs on the door, which is probably why it happened. If there would not have been an adjoining door from the bathroom, my children and I would have been stuck in the room. The tv in the second bedroom should definitely be updated. Overall, it was a good stay just not as aesthetically pleasing as every other rental has been. A few disappointing notes were that when you stay an entire week, more trash bags or toilet paper are not provided. I also received a claim that the curtains were broke. These were ripped when we came and I actually put them up due to fear my 2 year old would get stuck in them. We bought the mandatory property damage insurance luckily and did not receive an email from the host about this. The washer is so loud we couldn’t do laundry when the kids were sleeping. We would stay in the community again but would opt for a different unit.

Would not stay again
I am very unhappy that the owner opened a claim stating we left stains on the couch! The stains were there when we arrived as we noticed them the first night we were there! I advised the owner of this but no response she just opened a claim. Aside from the claim, I was unhappy to learn that you also have to pay for parking. There was no mention of this in the listing. The visitor parking is also on a first come first serve basis so if the visitor spots are filled then you have to park all the way at the front parking. Very inconvenient! You also have to pay for armbands for the pool and this was not mentioned either. The listing should also include within the description that no towels or wash cloths are included. Not until 3 days before our stay when we received the email did we realize there would not be any. It is listed in the amenities in very small print (my fault for not reading the fine print during booking) but would have greatly appreciated all of this info in the description. My initial thought of the condo as I first walked in was that the place definitely needed a deep cleaning and updating. After maybe an hour of walking inside barefooted my husband noticed the bottom of his feet were completely covered with dirt from the floor. Upon booking I noticed mixed reviews on the cleanliness but I understand everyone has different opinions on clean. Unfortunately it appears the cleaning crew took the week off prior to our stay!

Nice little condo across from the beach.
This little condo wash clean, typically equipped. The second bedroom has an old tube tv that worked poorly, the internet was spotty and the off great room TVs were the smallest that I’ve seen. As a income property owner and manager I’d like to have seen those little updates since tube TVs have not been made in over 30 years. I’d stay again given its proximity to the beach.

Great Vacation
It fit all of our needs. It could use a little updating. We loved how close the swimming pools were to this condo. The beach access was about a 5 minute walk. It was a very quiet neighborhood. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for allowing us to bring our dog along.

About the host

Host profile image
I am from Bowling Green, KY, where I am a retired nurse and full time real estate investor. I love to play bridge and spend time with my 3 daughters and their families, who live nearby.. We have a lake within 30 miles of us, but travel to PCB for sandy beaches and spectacular sunsets over the ocean.

We enjoy great times in PCB at Portside and we hope that you will take the opportunity to share our little piece of paradise.

Why they chose this property

Our family has been vacationing on the Emerald Coast for years and purchased this unit when SouthWest Airlines made flights very affordable and easy to get here. I love having the pools and hot tub within walking distance, and the easy access to beautiful white beaches. I loved hearing the locals call this resort the best maintained area in Panama City Beach. Makes me proud to be an owner of one of it's 167 condos.

Pier Park Mall is just minutes away. It has incredible shopping and dining opportunities. The Frank Brown Ball Park is only 2 miles down Back Beach Road, and is used frequently for ball tournaments.

There is a wonderful homemade doughnut shop just down the road that is too, too good, but you have to get there early (8?) to avoid long lines!

Definitely a 'family' place to stay! Try us out!

What makes this property unique

We love that the unit is in walking distance to the beach...no need to start the car. Also love to sit on the couch, or be at the dining table and look out at the lagoon and the luscious landscaping through the sliding glass doors. Or better, to have meals on that patio in the shaded beauty of Florida palms.

There are wonderful consignment shops, a huge shopping mall, lots of restaurants and specialty shops close by. We are about 5 miles away from the heavily trafficked areas of the college youth and bikers. close enough to get to if you wish, but far enough away to enjoy privacy and peace, with the beauty of the beach.

The airport is only 15 minutes away. We have all the comforts of home right here waiting! There are lots of things to do and to discover while you are here...or you can truly relax and just enjoy the sun, sparkling waters of the Gulf and the white sandy beaches.
