Shores of Panama 1506, Perfect for a Great Couples Getaway! Free Fun! Reserved Parking

Notice: Shores of Panama is undergoing exterior construction, it may be loud and disruptive. Construction noise begins at 8:00am and ends at 5:00pm.

Make your escape to paradise! Shores of Panama 1506 is a comfortable studio condo located on the 15th floor at the highly sought-after Shores of Panama Resort. Sophisticated decorations compliment sparkling floor to ceiling windows and tiled floors.

As soon as you walk into the beautiful and immaculately furnished studio, you will notice the size of the space. Typically, studios are crammed and offer little walking room. However, our studio is designed with you in mind. We have a studio that can fit a couch, TV, bed, kitchen appliances, table, and other amenities that make it feel like you are in a huge apartment!

Walking into the studio, guests immediately notice the cozy interior decor, tiled flooring that makes it easy to get the sand off of your sandals, and the massive size of the bed. After a long day of being outside on the beach and getting sun on your face, there is no better way to destress and relax than to jump into bed and turn on the smart TV to watch your favorite show.

If you bring friends over to watch a movie, play a board game, or have a few drinks, they can sit on the spacious couch as you sit at one of the high-top chairs or lay in the bed. The spacious floor plan and ample seating area of this studio makes it feel more like a one-bedroom apartment than a one-room studio. This is THE ideal space for guests if they enjoy spending time in the apartment, having a friend over for dinner, or need to remotely work from the comfort of their own apartment.

The open floor plan includes a fully equipped kitchen.

Plus, the kitchen is immediately when you walk into the studio, you can sit at the high-top counter space, with three chairs for your two friends who are visiting and have a few drinks while chatting about your day. Open the modern refrigerator to get out some cold beers and finger foods to enjoy with your pals.

If you want to make something fresh for dinner, don't worry — our studio has a spacious kitchen that makes it easy, and fun, for you to cook. Unlike other studios that just have a burner or microwave, our kitchen is fully equipped with a modern microwave, coffee pot, toaster, blender, oven, and stove, making it easy for you to make anything you want when you spend a night inside.

And we saved the best for last. Not only do you have ample interior space to spread out and relax, but there is outside space to read outside, watch the sunset, or get a glimpse of the bright blue waters in the distance.

A large private balcony is furnished with seating and offers a breathtaking view of the Emerald Coast. This condo will comfortably accommodate 4 guests and is perfect for romantic getaways. Enjoy hassle-free parking with a reserved parking spot located on the 11th floor of the parking garage.

If you are interested in getting out of the apartment on a bright sunny day, we don't blame you! One of the main perks of the Shores of Panama apartment is that it is close to all of the nearby attractions, restaurants, cafes, bars, shops, and outdoor activities. You are just steps away from the beach and the downtown area, making it easy for you to get around on foot with ease.

Not sure what to do during your free time? Well, one of the main draws of people coming to PCB for holiday is obviously the beach and the weather! Head to one of the nearby beaches during your free time, get a table, read a book, and play in the water. If you want to see the natural wildlife and go for a walk to burn off some of those vacation calories, head to the nearby St. Andrews State Park to enjoy swimming in the pristine water, boating with your friends, or camping for a night!

Another fun activity to do during your time in Panama City Beach is to head to the Gulf World Marine Park to view the natural wildlife, check out penguins in their natural habitat, and walk around the tropical garden. There is no better way to spend your day than to educate yourself on the sea life in Florida!

If you would rather eat a nice meal at a restaurant during your holiday, we recommend making a reservation at the Saltwater Grill, Firefly, or Craft 850.

Saltwater Grill is a steak and seafood restaurant that is known for its massive aquarium in the middle of the restaurant. As you eat your steak or perfectly cooked seafood, you can gaze through the glass at the marine wildlife. We recommend getting the Firecracker Shrimp with a sweet and spicy sauce as an appetizer to split with the table. For a main course, try the Snapper Pontchartrain with soft-shelled crab, Grouper Imperial with jumbo lump crab, or the Caribbean Jerk Mahi with pineapple salsa.

If you head to Firefly, you can't go wrong with ordering seafood. This romantic spot is ideal for date night, offering an outdoor vibe and dimly lit exterior that is perfect for setting the mood. We recommend getting the Escargot as an appetizer if you are brave! If not, we guarantee that you will love the flash-fried brussels sprouts, boudin-stuffed quail, or shrimp cocktail with zesty sauce.

Are you a beer lover? If so, head to Craft 850! This craft beer spot is ideal for vacationers who want to experience happy hour, sip on a strong IPA, and get special drink deals. We recommend trying the Destin Ale, Dead Guy Ale from Rogue Ales, Flamingo Party from Proof Brewing Company, or Guava Cider from The California Cider Company. Soak up the beer with shareable pickle fries, a crabcake, Bavarian pretzel, chicken wings, or coconut shrimp.

As you can see, there are dozens of activities to do during your free time in PCB!

As a guest of Vacations Perfected, you receive 1 free daily activity provided by our 3rd party activity partner! Your choice of:

Dave & Buster's ($20 free gameplay), SkyWheel at Pier Park (one ticket), WonderWorks, or Island Time Sailing Dolphin Cruise (seasonal). **not included for guests staying over 27 days.

Great communication with owner- however there was mold issue

The owner of this unit was so kind and allowed us to check in early as we had to evacuate unexpectedly from Orlando. We were so grateful for this and she never hesitated to let us come many hours earlier than check in time and was so friendly the entire experience. The room is as described, it’s a studio, so of course it’s small. It was a perfect size for my family and the view to the beach was beautiful. The biggest issue we had was the AC unit and the mold. When we arrived, there was very noticeable mold on the ceiling and the smell was nearly unbearable. As soon as I messaged the owner she had it taken care of immediately by maintenance and apologized, who said it was from the AC circulation. This did fix the issue for half a day, but then the smell came back. My daughter got sick (I don’t think from the mold) but this didn’t help the issue. It was hard to breathe in the room from the strong odor of mold and since this is a studio there was no getting away from it.thankfully we had friends there too so we just stayed in their rooms all day and only slept there because they also didn’t want us breathing in that room. I know the AC unit is an okay size for the size of the condo, however I would strongly recommend looking into a new way to cool the room that provides better circulation. There would have been no way we could have stayed much longer with the strong smell.

Do not recommend

I do not recommend this property. No central air - window unit that might cool the room to 75 at night, during the day it is miserably hot in the room. The refrigerator did not get cold enough - the milk and meat that I brought went bad bc of the refrigerator not working correctly. Freezer didn’t freeze - all our ice and popsicles melted. The dishwasher didn’t work and I pretty sure is from 1950. The elevators are ridiculous - first day I had to carry my luggage up to the 15th floor but I thought maybe it was so busy bc everyone was checking in but no, every day we had to use the stairs multiple times and with kids and mutiple trips to the room, that was miserable. The staff at the pool were not nice and were belittling when speaking to us. The food at the poolside bar/grill took hours to get. Not a good experience for us. And definitely not worth the crazy price I paid.

A couple of days vacation for my birthday

The condo was very clean and everything was very good. The one complaint I have is this is studio condo and luckily it was only me and my son. The first night we open the sleeper sofa it looked like a WWE match had taken place. All the springs were broken and was good for my son to sleep on so he had to sleep with me. The sleeper sofa has to be replaced. Otherwise I was able to relax and rest for a couple of days.

On the Shore

The condo itself was not bad. The floor was not swept so I eventually I swept it. The elevators are a problem. There are 6, but only five worked and 2 days there only 4 worked. They are full most of the time and people get sick of waiting so they over fill them. Needless to say we used the stairs quite a bit which is not ideal on the 15th floor. Staff/Security very rude when we pulled in and asked where to go. The only person who had any sort of customer service was the lady who checked us in.

NYE trip

It’s a cute condo, reasonably priced in a nice area. A few things to point out, we were only supplied with one roll of toilet paper and one paper towel. Needless to say there was only 2 of us but we used it all and then had to get more. If you’re traveling from out of town it makes it hard to bring paper products of the sort. We overall enjoyed our stay and the views were amazing!

Elevators and parking nightmare

Elevators are a disaster and parking is a nightmare! If you have a small car then great. If you get stuck on the elevators you probably have a heat stroke! KEEP TRACK OF YOUR EMAILS THEY TRY TO CHARGE ME FOR A EXTRA DAY THAT I DIDNT ASK FOR! They change the code on the door before our stay was up and had to call and ask what happen and get the new code in 98 degree weather!

Only request I'd say have for the next people would be switch out the TV or get a firestick for those stuck in during the rain. Having to redbox dvds to use with an older dvd player in 2022 is sooooo old school. Other then that, everything was great. Noticed a view comestics issues when I first got there and took pictures but everything worked fine and I enjoyed the stay!
