"Panama city - Only problem we had was checking in. Code wouldn’t work for the door and no one would answer the phone to help us get the correct one.
If the security guard hadn’t known the owner and called them for us I don’t know how we would have gotten in."

"Exceptional - "
Stayed May 2023
"Beautiful property and the view was amazing. Exactly as pictured and easy to find/park/access. Would only suggest a later check-out time, at 11 or 12 pm, for those of us on vacation who like to have breakfast, and relax while packing up in the morning of check out instead of being on a tight schedule to get out the door by 10am. Highly recommend and very easy to work with."

Customer Relations Representative
Heather, Thank you for letting us know that everything was as you expected. Late check-out times are difficult as we rent these units back to back and need sufficient time between guests to get things cleaned. We are glad you enjoyed the view and we hope you had a safe trip home. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

"Relaxing Getaway! - My family and I enjoyed a much needed relaxing getaway at this condo. The property was very clean and the view was amazing! We spent so much time just sitting on the balcony, listening to the waves and enjoying the ocean air. The beach was instantly accessible whenever we wanted to spend time in the sand and water. We had a great time and would definitely consider visiting again!"

"Overall - an amazing place to stay! - We absolutely loved the big balcony with the most incredible view. The condo was great with comfortable beds, couches and chairs. The only inconvenience is with the elevator in the building. It is so slow and you have to get your stuff/kids on so quick before the door tries to close. You can’t hold it open or it will shutdown the elevator. Definitely makes it tricky with all the beach stuff and kiddos. Also, during peak times of the day you can wait up to 20 mins for the elevator, super frustrating."
Allison

Kyla, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're glad you were comfortable and enjoyed the view. We're sorry about the elevators. While that is beyond our control, we do understand how frustrating it can be this time of year. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Stayed June 2021
"Best vacation ever!! - This property is fantastic!! We couldn’t have asked for anything better! The property was just like in the pictures. The condo was very clean. We would definitely stay here again! The only thing to be aware of is that there is construction going on at the building, and they start working at 7 am. Also, the beach chair service is completely separate from the condo, and the 2 guys working the beach chair service were extremely rude! It said in our contract with the condo that we had free beach chair service and when I showed the 2 guys, they said that they don’t honor the free beach chair service! And told us it would be $40 a day to rent 2 beach chairs."
