Nice property and great location. It was nice to have a full kitchen and to spend time relaxing on the huge balcony. Convenient for accessing everything in Baytowne Wharf. Also nice for exploring the surrounding area (Panama City, Grayton Beach Destin).

Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed the view and the room a lot. We did bring a lot of paper products of our own thankfully, but everything else was provided! The kitchen did lack a few things for cooking a large meal, but for a vacation spot was awesome!

Excellent Room

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! Our only complaint was that it is directly above Rum Runner which is open until 2am. You can hear the music and laughter below. If you need to sleep in silence, this might be a little disruptive. Otherwise, we loved it and highly recommend staying here.
