Summerhouse Beach Condo 307B

Room 307 B unbeatable for view of the Gulf from the living room and the master bedroom. The elevator for my Canadian guest and I was a serious issue. Except for initial arrival and final departure, the elevator was non-working. I took pictures of the signs posted each day. Elevator man said he was headed up to see problem and would let us know in 15 minutes and desk staff advised just waiting in car till we knew. We did not hear. Next time I saw elevator man, he said he had to get parts and it would take two to four days. I am 82 and guest, Faye, is 70 and has serious mobility with Parkingsons. She uses a rolling walker and a cane depending on where she is. Each time we went out to Pier Park or to eat, we had to negotiate about 30 steps down then back. In addition, Faye is a smoker and we had to completely leave the building each time she needed a smoke. We were offered a room in Building A with two nights to go at the end of the third day. We were tired and to pack up everything and unpack was just not an appetizing thought. Then I decided to go look at the room with a lesser view but on the way was called by staff that the elevator was fixed. Next morning, it had signs again that it was being serviced. Panama City Beach, its white sands, blues in the sky and all hues of emerald water is its own gift. We simply think that this should not happen when we have paid a smidge over one thousand for four nights.

We enjoyed the Summerhouse condos. The heated pool is an added attraction for the fall trips.

We will stay in this room again ❗️The room is facing the sunset front and center! Our stay was the first week in October the weather was perfect! We have stayed at Summerhouse many times over the years this was one of the best stays yet❗️

Loved everything they have to offer. A peaceful place that me and my kids truly enjoyed!

The property staff was friendly and helpful. The location is perfect.

As usual, Summerhouse and condo 307B was worth the money spent for a stress free weekend. Relaxing on the beach in the provided chairs allowed us to unwind and forget about working. The water was cold and the waves were a little rough but none of that really mattered.

The front desk staff and housekeeping was very friendly and got us into our condo early. Everything worked and was mostly clean. We found a half eaten cookie in the bedroom just under the dresser and the hot water wasn’t enough for more than one shower at a time. Other than that we enjoyed our stay and would return. This was our second time at Summerhouse but in a different condo.

a beautiful apartment with a great view

We have been staying at the Summerhouse for 20 years now. It I had been our favorite, by far. Some of the units could us a little updating, but this can be overlooked due to the beautiful grounds, pool area, and proximity to the beach. We love the large parking lot that does not include a walkover or parking garage. We also love that the property is wide...giving guests more beach area that prevents over crowding during busy seasons.

I will say, the new policy of arm bands is an irritant that is very disappointing. As a paying guest, I should not be required to wear such a band if I don’t choose to. I know this is a petty thing to complain about, but I hate it. I don’t intend to wear this new required bracelet, so I hope this policy is reevaluated.
