About this property

Blue Cove Retreat - 3 Bedroom w/Private Pool. Sleeps 6. Quiet Community, Close to Fishing Marinas.

Blue Cove Retreat is a cozy private home in the heart of downtown Panama City, FL. It has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 6 people. There is a large private pool for your enjoyment. This home is located close to 2 boat ramps with access to the bay, Shell Island, and the Gulf of Mexico if you wish to bring a boat and go fishing.

The home has a fully equipped kitchen with stainless appliances. There is an oven/stove, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, toaster, blender, and coffee maker. There is dining area seating for 6 to enjoy a homemade meal.

The cozy living room has seating for 6 with a Smart TV. There are some board games available in the living area and some books in the bookshelf. We welcome you to relax or play a family game to share some laughs and make some memories. We also provide an Alexa which is paired with our software to provide you area recommendations, information about the home, and the ability to play music and answer questions. This device can have the microphone disabled by pressing a mute button on the device.

The master bedroom has a new cozy queen size mattress with closet. There is a private bathroom with tub/shower.

The guest bedroom has a new cozy queen size mattress and a closet. There are 2 chairs should you choose to sit in peace and read a book or catch up on social media.

The 3rd room has 2 new twin size mattresses and a closet.

There is a 2nd bathroom in the hallway which has a tub/shower combo.

Out back you'll enjoy the private pool with jet tub (NOT hot tub). There are some chairs out back to sit back and watch the kids or just catch some sunshine. The pool has a light for swimming at night. There is a chest with random pool toys for your use.

There is parking for 2-3 vehicles in the driveway and the gravel parking area beside the driveway. The gravel parking area is large enough to park a large center console boat for those that wish to bring a boat to go fishing or visiting our beautiful resource, Shell Island.

Downtown Panama City is different from Panama City Beach because the area is much quieter, family friendly, the restaurants aren't as busy, and are more unique. There is a wonderful brewery 2 miles away, as well as several bay front dining options within 4 miles.

Pretty decent stay

Property was clean and comfortable. It was well stocked with what we needed. We felt safe for most part. It was a very quiet quaint neighborhood. It could use some updates on pool but otherwise nice. Cons: I didnt like the big sign in yard at all advertising that home was a vacation home. Made me feel a little uneasy. Also the owner or property manager showed up on a Saturday without prior notice in the middle of day. We was in pool and said he had to add water. He fumbled around a bit and made us uncomfortable and left. He never added water. Also it is soooooo far from panama beach. So book with 30 plus minute drive to main attractions. Its very close to mariana.

Cove cottage

Property was fine. There is no dressers to put your shorts, underwear or bars. There is shelves in the closet but no lights to see in there. The bed blocks the closet door from opening all the way. The pool is dangerous. No hand rails steps invisible. Too much concrete and rocks in the back yard. No way to get shade during the day either. Won't re rent

Family Fishing Trip

We all had a great time and the property was as stated in the VRBO property description. The only thing that we wish was better was the mattress in the master bedroom... it was not comfortable at all, way to soft but if you like soft mattress then you will be fine.

My Inlaws came into town and we were able to find them a place close to us and they loved the fact they were just around the corner. Definitely will try to get this place when they come back.

Good location for our particular needs. Too cold to make use of pool. Not real close to restaurants though.
