Windows on the Beach , Panama City Beach , Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

This is our first time staying here and we absolutely loved it! Amazing view from every room! We will definitely stay here again! Thank you Karl for sharing your place with us!

Karl Wiegand's reply:

Thanks Denise, enjoyed having you there for your vacation.

Stop spending countless hours searching for the best place to stay, because you found it! This was our 4th time staying here and it never disappoints! There are so many great things to say about Karl's condo, so I'll try to cover them all: Location - Located in a quieter area of Panama City Beach but incredibly close to everything! Go Karts, Wonderworks, Putt Putt Golf, Ripleys, the Marina, Restaurants....are just a short few minute drive, but the area of this condo just seems quieter without all of the chaos of a high rise condo. Access to the beach - Want to head to the beach? Grab your stuff, walk out the door, down a short (and I mean short hallway) and step outside to walk down the stairs to the beach. Your feet are in the sand in less than a minute! There are super convenient hoses to spray off sand on the way up, or jump in the pool before heading back to your place. Ocean - If you've never experienced the emerald green waters of the Gulf, this is the place to do it! The water is warm, clear and provides a massively gorgeous view while in the condo. Condo - It's the best, easy as that! 1st floor, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, laundry room, large living area and fabulous kitchen with everything you need! If you need it, it's there! And the view...oh, the view! You'll see! When you walk in, there is a gorgeous view of the beaches and ocean from every room in the condo! The pictures don't do it justice! There is also a large balcony with seating to enjoy the sounds of the ocean from the convenience of your condo. The owner - Karl is the best! His communication goes above and beyond what you would expect an owner to do. He really wants to make sure you enjoy your stay and does everything he can to ensure that you do! He checks in with you upon arrival, does a walkthrough of the condo with you on the phone, checks on you on your travel days and does his best to make sure you don't want or need anything! If you can't tell...we love this place! And we'll be back

Karl Wiegand's reply:

Thank you so much Jennifer

We had another wonderful vacation at Karl & Ginny's condo! The view is incredible all day and then the SUNSET!!! Words just can't do it justice! Not only is the view incredible, but the convenience to the beach is the best! Only steps to the beach and I am not kidding! Ginny and Karl are so easy to work with and they make sure that you have everything you need including recommendations for restaurants! They are easy to communicate with and are very attentive! Thank you Karl and Ginny for a fantastic week at Windows on the Beach! We will be back!!!

Karl Wiegand's reply:

Thanks Rhonda

We love staying at this beautiful condo right on the beautiful Emerald Coast. Karl and Ginny are wonderful hosts and have made our visits there comfortable and just wonderful. I recommend highly. The kitchen is well stocked and the view is SPECTACULAR!!!!

Karl Wiegand's reply:

Thank you Lynn

We have been coming here 4 years in a row and love it! Best view on the beach. Karl and Ginny are wonderful to rent from and always at the ready with answers to questions you might have. I highly recommend to anyone who loves the beach and a pool within steps from the condo.

Karl Wiegand's reply:

Thank you and hope to hear from you again

This is our second time to stay in this condo and I can only hope we can do it again soon! It is so convenient to the beach (only one floor up) and the views are simply perfect! My mother-in-law is 95 now and she loves it as much as I do! The only reason I would give this a 4 and not a 5 is we wish it would have a smart tv ! Lol! We weren't smart enough to operate the one there properly but managed just fine after reading directions.

Karl Wiegand's reply:

Sherry, you should have called me. I could have got the TV taken care of. Karl

We have been coming to Windows on the Beach for 7 or 8 years. It has been consistently wonderful. This was our first winter visit and we loved it. So nice to walk on the pristine beach and enjoy the sun and warmth! This condo is so comfortable and well equipped. What a fabulous view! My favorite spot is the big armchair in the bedroom with the beach view right there. Or morning coffee on the balcony, again with the view! Lots of wonderful seafood restaurants nearby. Or cook it yourself in the well appointed kitchen. We love this place!

View! View! View! That says it all. There is NOTHING that can compare to it. You see ocean from every window. You feel as though you are sitting on the beach without walking out a door. The sunrises and sunsets are absolutely beautiful. It was our first visit to Panama City Beach, and it will not be our last. And Karl & Ginny's condo is the ONLY place to be. The minute you walk through the front door you feel like you are home. Very welcoming, comfortable, and peaceful. Nothing was lacking. Not a thing. The kitchen was well stocked. And there was even ice available in the freezer. Karl was very attentive and made certain we enjoyed our stay. His recommendations were spot on. He knew were to go and when to go. Nothing was left for thought. He went over and above what we would have expected any owner to do. I enjoyed our chats and his help in getting some of our belongings back to us that we had accidentally left behind was beyond what we could have asked him to do. I will not hesitate to point my friends and family to this rental. We will be back. Thank you Karl and Ginny for a beautiful, relaxing week at your Windows on the Beach! Stayed December, 2018

My husband and I went to Panama City Beach for a quick trip. We ended up staying at Karl and Ginny’s condo, also known as “windows on the beach”. The description did not lie! You have a view of the beach from every window! Sunsets are amazing!!! Karl and Ginny were so easy to work with and the condo has everything you need for a great vacation! We can’t wait to come back!

Best family Vacation Ever

Family of 6 stayed in Karl's condo June 2017. Karl called to check on us when we arrived to make sure the condo was ok. Communication was really, really nice. The view was fantastic. We've been coming to PCB every summer for 12 years and have stayed in a LOT of condos but this was the BEST EVER. The ice maker was a big plus for us. Everything needed for cooking was there. The beds were comfortable and the view from the bedrooms was wonderful. Being on the floor just a few steps away from the walkway to the beach was convenient. No elevators required to get to the beach. Out the door a few steps to the ramp and you're on the beach. I can't say enough about the view! You get what you pay for and this was worth every penny. We hope to return in the very near future and we don't want to stay anywhere but THIS condo.

Amazing beach views from every room!

The condo was absolutely the best! My family has been coming to PCB for years and this was our first stay at Karl and Ginny's. We'll never stay anywhere else again! The view as you first walk into the living room is just breathtaking and every room has beach views. You can literally be on the beach within 50 steps from the condo. Two pools are close as well. Had an awesome vacation, can't wait to return to Karl and Ginny's!!

Fantastic views

My family from 3 states met there last week. This condo was everything I was told and more. The views from every room are just fantastic. Everything we needed was there. Very well equipped kitchen. This condo is definitely on our list to revisit in Panama City Beach. The owners Karl and Ginny are so great to work with. I have never been asked to call and give a report of how things were when I arrived. This shows they care about their condo and more importantly they want to make sure things are as they told you they would be.

WOW...WHAT A VIEW

We were there this past week and it was a wonderful stay!!!! The condo is situated in such a way that you have a panoramic view of the beach and ocean. The accommodations are well appointed and very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked so no need to bring anything as far as that is concerned. Karl and Ginny are wonderful to work with and we were able to take our little dog Max with us which is wonderful. I highly recommend this condo and have done so to my sister who is very interested in staying here as well. You won't be sorry to rent this condo as it is just wonderful!!!!

Our family really enjoyed the time we spent here. The ocean views from every room were fantastic. Being able to walk out of the condo directly onto the beach was wonderful. We sat on the balcony every night and watched the sunset. The condo itself was very comfortable and accommodating. We were happy that we were allowed to bring our small dog with us...she enjoyed the stay and fell in love with the beach. Karl was extremely helpful before leaving home, ensuring we had adequate with directions, recommendations for dining and other helpful hints, as well as his concern we had everything we needed upon arrival. Would highly recommend this condo for anyone who wants to totally relax and enjoy the ocean and beach.

Dunes of Panama

Let me say you're right! This place is magnificent! The views are amazing, and every hour is different with the tides, fog, sunrise and sunset, the colors in the water. It all adds up to amazing!

The condo is nice. The view was amazing. The large balcony and chairs were so relaxing. Coffee every morning and glass of wine every evening as the sunset over the Gulf. We had front row seats! The condo amenities were outstanding.

The furniture was comfortable and accommodating for all of us. Everyone had their own space and also great for family gatherings. The puzzles, books, games all were a nice distraction from cell phones and computers. Karl and Ginny along with guests that have left their mark have made this a home away from home.

The bedrooms were spacious and plenty of storage. Bed linens were accommodating but if not enough, there were spares in the closets. The views here were so amazing as well. You did not go anywhere in the condo, other than the privacy of bath time, that you could not see the full view of the ocean and beach.

The amenities in the kitchen are accommodating. We brought extras due to most condo stays are limited, but we have found nothing lacking down to the crockpot. Every time I thought I had discovered something to be lacking in the kitchen, it was found. I love to cook on vacation due to I don't most of the time due to work hours. This was a great find and pleasurable for me to have the nice accommodations of this kitchen.

We are very happy and talking about our next booking. The fact that we can bring our pets and extended family has been a huge plus! The spaciousness of the condo has given everyone pleasure and needed space. Not to mention the views and quiet walks on the beach or dips in the heated pool. There is even a dog walk at the condo for our little four pawed friends.

Dunes of Panama



We also visited some of Panama's sites and attractions. Pier Park and Wonderworks along with the mom and pop shops. I know this rental is income for Karl and Ginny, but it is like a home away from home for us! It was well worth the 15 hour trip, including stops, lol. Thank you. I must say the communication prior, upon arrival, during and departure of trip made it nice too. I work for a small company, and I know how important customer relations and satisfaction are for business. The communication between these owners and us has made us feel like family. Looking forward to another great week!

Wonderful Pre-Holiday Vacation

Our family returned to Panama City Beach for a quick pre-holiday getaway. My parents stayed at Karl's condo back in March 2012 and had a wonderful time so there was no doubt where we should go. The accommodations are wonderful only topped by the spectacular views and with mother nature pitching in it was well worth the trip. Karl is a great host, there if you need anything and we will be sure to head back there in the future.

Windows on the Beach. Great stay!

This was our 5th stay at the condo. Great as always! Karl and Ginnie continue to improve the place, but no one can improve the awesome beach view from every window! Perfect weather-gorgeous sunsets.

Good Condo & Location

Fantastic location with great views of the beach and ocean. Enjoyed this particular condo very much. The complex is aged but located down away from the commercialized area of PCB which makes it quieter.

Property clean. Condo amazing. Was probably the nicest there... Did not even have our vacation ruined by the rain because of our awesome views and condo amenities. Highly recommend.

My Home Away From Home!

Just had our fourth stay at this amazing condo! We have never stayed at a condo in Panama City Beach that we've loved as much as this one. It is very spacious, has panoramic views, and meets all of our needs. Very easy and short walk to the beach, which is nice considering we have our young grandchildren, and lots of "stuff" to carry. Our grandchildren really enjoyed the 2 pools at Dunes of Panama. I highly recommend this condo! As a matter of fact, we are going for our fifth time this Oct. and can't wait to get back there! Karl, the owner, is very helpful, and a pleasure to work with. He answers all your questions before you even have to ask. He is genuinely concerned that your stay at his condo is exceptional!

Perfect location if you go to the beach to enjoy the beach

This unit is located on the less crowded end of PCB and was perfect for us. There is a larger pool with refreshments located at the opposite end of Dunes of Panama, but we loved our little end of the complex so much, we never ventured down that way. We were lucky to have excellent weather our entire stay, so pitched our tent early each morning and left it there until the sun began to set. If you are familiar with PCB, you know there is a tendency for seaweed to accumulate along the shore in warm weather. Although there were large seaweed patches nearby, except for one morning, we had beautiful, clear water in front of Buildings A&B. There are many wonderful things about this unit, but the view and the first level location are priceless. The living area is large enough to accommodate a large group for dinner and the under-counter icemaker came in very handy. Karl and Ginny are wonderful to work with and we appreciated all of the tips and recommendations. PCB has many good restaurants to choose from when you don't feel like cooking. Our most memorable will be walking across the street to eat tacos at Finns Island Style Grub for lunch. Being from SC, there are many other beaches we can travel to in less than half the time. We won't make it back every year, but we will definitely make it back.

Amazing beach views

Our family spent a week in this lovely condo, and it was one of the best vacations we've ever had. This is by far the closest we've ever been to the ocean! Our family spent more time in the ocean, since it was so close to the condo. The kids loved that you could access the beach from the pools. It was a great bonus to have Sud Weezers on site for snacks and cold drinks. On our second day there, two turtle nests were flagged right outside the condo. We wish we could stay and watch them hatch. Karl was a joy to work with. We will definitely rent this condo again!

Best place to stay in Panama City Beach!!

This was our SECOND time back and it was even better than the first! I can't say enough great things about this condo....to start, the owners, Karl & Ginny, are fabulous to work with. Karl makes sure that all information is sent out way in advance and any and all questions answered before you even arrive. He provides tips on driving directions, things to do, places to eat and is helpful with questions in regards to things to do while in PCB. I can't even begin to tell you how breath taking the view is when you walk in....there is a massive, panoramic view of the ocean and beach the moment you walk in the door. It is a corner unit on the first level with incredible views from the kitchen, living room, and both bedrooms! There are TV's in both bedrooms and one in the living room as well. There is also a huge laundry room with washer, dryer, rack for drying clothes, and plenty of room to get suitcases, extra beach stuff, etc, out of the way. The kitchen is stocked to the point that anything you want to cook....it's there! Plus, there's an ice maker with never ending ice to keep you cool and pack coolers for the beach. Plenty of blankets, extra pillows, pool and beach toys, movies, books, decks of cards, dominos, hands on menus of many of the local restaurants, and much more. The condo is located in building A and is monitored by security at the front entrance to the Dunes of Panama to ensure that parking is never a problem. There are two elevators in the building which is plenty. Beach access is literally out your door, around the corner and straight down the stairs....and your toes are in the sand!! There is a huge pool on the grounds, however, the beach is so beautiful, we never even used it! There are showers and hoses for spraying off right at the stairs that lead back to the condo which makes it great for cleaning off chairs and beach toys before heading back in. Myself, my husband, my 15 year old son, 11 year daughter, and my parents went for a week and all of us loved it! The view from the balcony that looks right out over the beach and ocean is one of the best spots to relax in the early morning hours or in the evening after dinner. The condo is not in the busy part of PCB, however, it's incredibly close to all of your favorite restaurants and attractions. We were able to get to go kart tracks, Gulf World, great restaurants, grocery stores, Pier Park, and so much more within 10-15 minutes. Definitely booking with Karl & Ginny again!

Excellent hospitality

The view, oh the view!!! The condo has the most amazing views from every angle of the beach!! And the convenience of how close it was to step right out and onto the beach was awesome! It was the best condo we have ever stayed in. Everything you need and beautiful! Having the parking so close to the condo was a big help too. I would recommend it to family and friends and we will be back!!!!! Karl is so nice and helpful!!

My husband and I spent 2 months in this condo. It was an end unit with beautiful views of the gulf. It was so nice to be able to bring our dog with us.

I know you will be very happy with this condo, don't pass this one up!

Condo very comfortable and perfectly stocked kitchen. You can see the Ocean everywhere you are in condo. View takes your breath away when you first walk in. We saw 100's of Monarch Butterflies while we were there. They were nested just outside the balcony. Karl could not have been more helpful with the rental from beginning to end. I would highly recommend this condo for rental. Pier Park was great and we had dinner at Saltwater Grille 3 times. Just a great vacation!

A great place in Panama City Beach

The owner, Karl, was very helpful and accommodating throughout the process. We decided on very short notice to take a trip, and he made the process very easy. We were very pleased when we walked through the doors to the condominium. Windows span the entire family and eating area offering a spectacular view of the Gulf. It was great to sit on the balcony and watch the sunset. Access to the beach is extremely easy. We enjoyed taking long walks on the beautiful white sand. The condominium is very well equipped to provide a nice, relaxing stay. The kitchen has everything needed to make meals. All of the rooms are very spacious. The condominium is located far enough away from the center of activity, but yet close enough to walk to what is needed. It's a very short car ride to a nice shopping center or large grocery store. We would highly recommend Karl's place to anyone.

I would like to add to my review yesterday. I believe first impressions are very important and our first impression of the condo was awesome the window curtains all across the living room were open and the view was breathtaking!

Love, Love, Love

This was the first-week long family vacation my family has ever had and we were so excited. First, the owner Karl was extremely helpful and gracious! I am in a wheelchair and Karl measured all doorways and personally checked access to the beach. I rented a power beach wheelchair for the week and was able to park and charge it under a covered area right outside the doorway going to the beach. The condo was clean, spacious, updated and the view was priceless! I had no trouble getting around the condo in my wheelchair. The pool area, grills and grounds were clean and loved the easy access to the beautiful beach. We had so much fun at night looking for sand crabs! The people were friendly and helpful. I can see why people keep coming back to this condo and owners! I highly recommend this condo and Dunes of Panama. I looked and looked for something like this condo and so thankful to have found something I can hopefully come back to soon. Thank you, Karl and Ginny, for a little piece of your paradise! God Bless!

We loved this condo! Beautiful views.

Karl's family have a wonderful condo. Each room has large window walls. Even rainy days are beautiful with those views. The open kitchen/living area is bordered on 2 walls of windows. Kitchen is small, but I wasn't planning on cooking a lot. There is a separate ice machine in the well equipped kitchen so no worries of running out of ice. The master bdrm was large and comfy. Plenty of drawer and closet space. The large bedroom window looks over the beach, but also walkway to water areas. So you have to be careful with mirrors and views. The 2nd bedroom has 2 lg beds and also has window wall. This beautifully furnished condo is on the 1st floor. That makes it just steps from the pool and beach areas. Step out the condo, make a right turn and you are going out to the walkway to water areas. We were occasionally briefly stunned when this walkway door slammed by the wind. The balcony has a gorgeous view and comfy furniture. You are on the front - end corner - so 2 directions of views over the beach and beautiful water. Everything was clean and maintained.

Karl is extremely helpful and attentive. He was quick to communicate via internet and phone. Always making sure everything was perfect. He had menus and recommendations for local restaurants and other helpful areas.

Plus, we were able to take our fur baby on vacation too. They had designated "doggie" areas which were maintained and convenient. We were in the area for our 40th anniversary and didn't realize it was Spring Break week when we booked. Our concerns were quickly put to rest by management. We saw only 2 instances of young men getting a little loud. It was handled extremely quick. We were on the quieter end of PCB.

This condo is perfect for a couple or a family. Everything is so convenient and easy.

Lovely Condo Close to Water

This condo is lovely and very roomy! Never stayed so close to the water - beautiful and relaxing! The condo was very clean and has been well maintained. The pool area is especially inviting.

We really enjoyed Pier Park, which is nearby, and loved both Schooners and Captain Anderson's restaurants, which are close.

We thoroughly enjoyed our month at Karl and Ginny's condo. In fact, we think it's even nicer and roomier than the pictures on the website. Karl went above and beyond our expectations of a condo owner. He genuinely cared that we were happy with every facet of our stay.

Great Beach Escape

We have stayed at Carl and Ginnie’s condo several times; always love it. The condo is clean and well maintained, very spacious and comfortable, with new furniture in the living area. Beach views in every room, awesome view from the living room, kitchen, and dining areas. We love the easy access to the beach; no elevator needed, just a quick walk out the door and down a few steps. The owners are very responsive, easy to reach with questions if needed. Full laundry, large rooms, well-equipped kitchen, and convenient location to dining and shopping make this a great place to stay. We were able to bring our small dog with us; he knows the place and loves it too. Sure makes everything easier for us. We will stay here any chance we have!

We have been coming to PCB for 25+ years and this was the BEST condo for us. Convenient location to the beach, parking, and pools.

The perfect weather, pet-friendly environment and courteous owner and building staff made this a memorable and stress-free vacation.

Happiness, beauty, and relaxation in one place!

This was our third year staying at Karl and Ginny's condo and I hope we have many more years of staying here! It was a special time for us this year, our 10 year anniversary, and we wanted to spend it in this beautiful place. We love this condo and long for it all the other weeks of the year that we can't be down there. The views are absolutely spectacular and the condo itself is spacious and very comfortable. It takes no time to make it a home away from home. We are homebodies, so the fact that we can just relax in the front room and have a panoramic view of the beach is wonderful. Thank you again Karl, for sharing this special place with us! We probably won't be able to make it next year, but we are already trying to figure out how to make it out in 2015!

What a wonderful way to enjoy the beach and all the area has to offer. This is our second stay at Ginny and Karl's condo, and we loved it just as much as before. Clean, well equipped, pet friendly and so convenient. The first floor location is high enough to be above the parking and street, but only steps from the beach, no elevator ride required to hit the surf or the pools. The huge windows provide an awesome view of the beach throughout the condo. Even on a rainy day, it's fun to watch the surf, which is only a short walk away. The corner location gives you views out the kitchen as well. Nice balcony, too. This place is larger and more comfortable than most, and has all the amenities. We loved all the great restaurants nearby, especially the seafood! Highly recommend!

Vacation get away May 2015

When we arrived at the condo everything was ready for us to enjoy our week. The condo was clean. Karl was very helpful and kind. We would highly rent this condo again. The view is the best view of the beach that you could ask for. Every room you can see the beach. Love this condo

We loved this condo! Beautiful views.

Karl's family have a wonderful condo. Each room has large window walls. Even rainy days are beautiful with those views. The open kitchen/living area is bordered on 2 walls of windows. Kitchen is small, but I wasn't planning on cooking a lot. There is a separate ice machine in the well equipped kitchen so no worries of running out of ice. The master bdrm was large and comfy. Plenty of drawer and closet space. The large bedroom window looks over the beach, but also walkway to water areas. So you have to be careful with mirrors and views. The 2nd bedroom has 2 lg beds and also has window wall. This beautifully furnished condo is on the 1st floor. That makes it just steps from the pool and beach areas. Step out the condo, make a right turn and you are going out to the walkway to water areas. We were occasionally briefly stunned when this walkway door slammed by the wind. The balcony has a gorgeous view and comfy furniture. You are on the front - end corner - so 2 directions of views over the beach and beautiful water. Everything was clean and maintained.

Karl is extremely helpful and attentive. He was quick to communicate via internet and phone. Always making sure everything was perfect. He had menus and recommendations for local restaurants and other helpful areas.

Plus, we were able to take our fur baby on vacation too. They had designated "doggie" areas which were maintained and convenient. We were in the area for our 40th anniversary and didn't realize it was Spring Break week when we booked. Our concerns were quickly put to rest by management. We saw only 2 instances of young men getting a little loud. It was handled extremely quick. We were on the quieter end of PCB.

This condo is perfect for a couple or a family. Everything is so convenient and easy.

Lovely Condo Close to Water

This condo is lovely and very roomy! Never stayed so close to the water - beautiful and relaxing! The condo was very clean and has been well maintained. The pool area is especially inviting. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a great beachfront stay! We really enjoyed Pier Park, which is nearby, and loved both Schooners and Captain Anderson's restaurants, which are close.

5 Star Condo

We thoroughly enjoyed our month at Karl and Ginny's condo. In fact, we think it's even nicer and roomier than the pictures on the website. Karl went above and beyond our expectations of a condo owner. He genuinely cared that we were happy with every facet of our stay. We also found The Dunes community to be very friendly with condo guests. We especially enjoyed Dusty's Oyster Bar!!! We would not hesitate to recommend this condo to family and friends!!!!!

Ginny & Karl Condo

I highly recommend this condo it was clean and well maintained. The view of the beach was perfect. We really enjoyed the seafood at Dirty Dicks. Also the cafe across the street from the condo and the Wicked Wheel. Karl was very helpful and friendly. Looking forward to going again next year. Karl said that we were going to love the condo and he was right. Thank you, Karl and Ginny, for letting us stay at your condo.

Great Beach Escape

We have stayed at Carl and Ginnie’s condo several times; always love it. The condo is clean and well maintained, very spacious and comfortable, with new furniture in the living area. Beach views in every room, awesome view from the living room, kitchen, and dining areas. We love the easy access to the beach; no elevator needed, just a quick walk out the door and down a few steps. The owners are very responsive, easy to reach with questions if needed. Full laundry, large rooms, well-equipped kitchen, and convenient location to dining and shopping make this a great place to stay. We were able to bring our small dog with us; he knows the place and loves it too. Sure makes everything easier for us. We will stay here any chance we have!

Even BETTER than what the pictures show!

By far, the best place we have ever stayed in PCB! We were expecting a lot from the description and the pictures, and boy did it deliver!! The views were awesome and beach access was super convenient and literally steps away from the condo door. Check in and check out was super easy. The management staff was very easy to deal with and the owners were fantastic. Karl was very helpful when booking the condo and continued to provide us with information about PCB as well as tips and tricks to make our stay even better. He even texted to make sure we arrived ok and that everything was as expected. He followed up on Tuesday to make sure things were still going well. And then again on the day we left to thank us for using his condo. Truly a great experience overall! The condo was spacious and comfortable. You can tell it has been remodeled and very well taken care of. There is even newer furniture than what some of the pictures show. The location of the condo was on the quieter end of PCB, but within easy driving distance of anything you would want to do. It's just a few minutes away from Captain Anderson's Marina or Ripley's/Wonderworks the other direction and only a short drive to Pier Park. The beach was beautiful and not crowded at all because this complex is not one of the huge high rise complexes that cause crowding at the beach. Your parking is in a gated area and made us feel very secure. My parents even came along and had a wonderful time. They are in their 60's (one just a few months outside of surgery for a broken leg) and loved the convenience to the beach! We also were able to bring our dog with us which made our stay even easier on us. My kids are 13 and 9 and loved every minute of our stay! Karl and Ginny definitely make sure you are taken care of...plenty of kitchen utensils, a wonderful ice maker, puzzles, books, dishes, games, and very comfortable furniture. Again..the best place in PCB we have ever stayed....couldn't have asked for more! Thank you Karl and GInny for sharing your wonderful condo with us!

Lots of windows and so close to the beach

We had our family of five stay a week at this condo. It was close to the beach and the pool. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would most likely be back. It was a little frustrating to have to continually ask the office for trash bags and dishwasher detergent.

The pictures don't do it justice--a real beauty.

We have been coming to PCB for 25+ years and this was the BEST condo for us. Convenient location to the beach, parking, and pools. Generous rooms, fresh and clean, everything in good working order and recently decorated. The perfect weather, pet-friendly environment and courteous owner and building staff made this a memorable and stress-free vacation.

Awesome condo!

The condo was awesome! Loved having coffee every morning on the balcony enjoying the gulf view and the sunsets from the balcony were breathtaking. Everything was comfortable. We ate at Capt. Anderson's, Sweet Basil's, Bayou on the Beach and all were fantastic. Thanks for all your suggestions for places to eat. We had a great time, check in was easy and the staff was very pleasant. We would definitely recommend your condo

Utterly amazing, peace and tranquility

The views from every single room are breathtaking! Cleanliness is superb! Beach access is the best we have ever encountered. Local restaurants are fabulous if you care to dine out or cooking in the condo has all the immunities you could ask for. It was a fabulous experience that created memories for a lifetime with our family!!!!!

Happiness, beauty, and relaxation in one place!

This was our third year staying at Karl and Ginny's condo and I hope we have many more years of staying here! It was a special time for us this year, our 10 year anniversary, and we wanted to spend it in this beautiful place. We love this condo and long for it all the other weeks of the year that we can't be down there. The views are absolutely spectacular and the condo itself is spacious and very comfortable. It takes no time to make it a home away from home. We are homebodies, so the fact that we can just relax in the front room and have a panoramic view of the beach is wonderful. Thank you again Karl, for sharing this special place with us! We probably won't be able to make it next year, but we are already trying to figure out how to make it out in 2015!

THE PERFECT VACATION SPOT!

I found this condo on the internet. I was so lucky in my selection. It could not get any better than this place. How many times have you had trouble deciding whether to stay inside a condo or to go sit on the beach. When walking on the beach looking up at the other condominiums I knew I had made the best decision. I cannot imagine staying anywhere else in the future. Karl and Ginny had everything you could need on hand to make our stay pleasant. The Dunes of Panama staff were also very helpful and friendly. We are already looking forward to coming back next year.

Beautiful Condo!

This is the second time we've stayed at this condo and it's just beautiful! The master bedroom is so big and you just never want to get out of the bed cause it's so comfy. The condo is big with lots of room and a beautiful view off the deck looking at the gulf and then down the beach. The best thing about waking up in the morning is going out on the deck and drinking coffee, the view is awesome, I miss it already!

The owner is so nice and sends you a list of all the good places to eat and visit. He then makes a call after a few days to see if everything is good and you are happy with the condo. You couldn't ask for a better owner to rent from. I highly recommend this place and you will not be disappointed!

Indiana Visitor

The condo was just as described, spacious, bright, and with fantastic views from every room. Grounds were well kept and management staff very friendly. You have to see the view of the beach to believe it. The unit is conveniently located to everything you might need or want. Information provided by owner on restaurants was accurate. The meals we had at the suggested places were outstanding. I have already recommended this condo to relatives and friends and am planning a return trip.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful condo. The views of the beach are to die for!! Really loved the property and would definitely recommend your place and stay again. Karl was extremely helpful prior to and during our stay. He provided some great insider information on places to eat, shopping, and things to do around the beach. He was extremely responsive and made sure we had a seamless experience both preparing for and during our stay. I can't say enough about the pristine beach and this gorgeous condo. The laid back and friendly staff at this property were a pleasant surprise. From the beaches, pools and to the great restaurants, this condo Is a hidden gem and we will definitely be back.

This was our 6 th stay at the condo. Great as always! Karl and Ginnie continue to improve the place, but no one can improve the awesome beach view from every window! Perfect weather-gorgeous sunsets

   
You can stop spending countless hours searching for the best place to stay, because this is it! This was our 3rd time staying here and it never disappoints! There are so many great things to say about Karl's condo, so I'll try to hit them all: Location - Located in a quieter area of Panama City Beach but incredibly close to everything! Go Karts, Wonderworks, Putt Putt Golf, Ripleys, the Marina, Restaurants....are just a short few minute drive, but the area of this condo just seems quieter without all of the chaos of a high rise condo. Access to the beach - Want to head to the beach? Grab your stuff, walk out the door, down a short (and I mean short hallway) and step outside to walk down the stairs to the beach. Your feet are in the sand in less than a minute! There are super convenient hoses to spray off sand on the way up, or jump in the pool before heading back to your place. Ocean - If you've never experience the emerald green waters of the Gulf, this is the place to do it! The water is warm, clear and provides a massively gorgeous view while in the condo. Condo - It's the best, easy as that! 1st floor, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, laundry room, large living area and fabulous kitchen with everything you need! If you need it, it's there! And the view...oh, the view! You'll see! When you walk in, there is a gorgeous view of the beaches and ocean from every room in the condo! The pictures don't do it justice! There is also a large balcony with seating to enjoy the sounds of the ocean from the convenience of your condo. The owner - Karl is the best! His communication goes above and beyond what you would expect an owner to do. He really wants to make sure you enjoy your stay and does everything he can to ensure that you do! He checks in with you upon arrival, does a walkthrough of the condo with you on the phone, checks on you on your travel days and does his best to make sure you don't want or need anything! If you can't tell...we love this place! And we'll be back! And like I said, you can stop looking...go ahead and book, because I promise you, this place is a hidden gem and fills up fast! Thanks Karl for yet another great week in PCB!

Family of 6 stayed in Karl's condo June 2017. Karl called to check on us when we arrived to make sure the condo was ok. Communication was really, really nice. The view was fantastic. We've been coming to PCB every summer for 12 years and have stayed in a LOT of condos but this was the BEST EVER. The ice maker was a big plus for us. Everything needed for cooking was there. The beds were comfortable and the view from the bedrooms was wonderful. Being on the floor just a few steps away from the walkway to the beach was convenient. No elevators required to get to the beach. Out the door a few steps to the ramp and you're on the beach. I can't say enough about the view! You get what you pay for and this was worth every penny. We hope to return in the very near future and we don't want to stay anywhere but THIS condo.
