Parking pass is on the 8th floor as well as the condo. The only time you have to fight the elevators is to go to the beach. All and all everything was great the week of the 4th when we stayed!

The condo was a nice size and clean and a cool space to cool off after a long day at the beach. We had multiple little families that occupied the space and it didn't feel like we were packed on top of each other. It is quite a ways from the elevator, bringing a wagon would be super helpful. The condo could use a little TLC and the furniture indoors and out is a little dated.

I enjoyed the property, we had a water outage during our stay that didn't have any thing to do with the resort. That lead to no air conditioning as well. That was for a day and a half. Those days were rough. The room is nice but I feel like for the problems we had to face we should have had a small refund. I had family staying in the same resort and the got 30% back. The parking garage is very tight as well. It does the job but is extremely aggravating. Host was nice.

Shores of Panama

I think one of the most awesome things was the view from the balcony and master bedroom. We had plenty of seating and beds, and everything was quite comfortable. Watching the sunsetting from our balcony was an ethereal experience.

Family vacation

The host responds and is helpful. Check-in was great. No waiting in lines. Enter your code and you’re off to make memories. The room was clean and nicely decorated. Kitchen was stocked with everything you need if you choose to cook. The view from the balcony is breathtaking with plenty of seating. Close to food, shopping and adventures. The parking garage is very tight. Be careful and take it slow. Plenty of staff around to make you feel safe and for any questions you may have. The elevators or slow but you have to remind yourself of how many people are there and using them. Take a deep breath and enjoy. You’re on vacation!!!

Birthday Get Away

We enjoyed our stay! The condo was great. It had plenty of space and clean. Nicholle was great to work with and very responsive to any questions I had about the condo. The elevators at time were a little slow, but that's to be expected. I'm sure that due to being spring break there was an abundance of language and music that I didn't appreciate around my grandkids so I'd definitely come at a different time next time. That's no fault of the condo though. The condo was great and I'd stay here again.

Shores of Panama

The room was great. The host explained everything we needed to do and she was easy to get in contact with. The only bad thing about the shores of panama is the parking. The parking garage is crammed and people drive so fast through there. If you drive anything other than a car or small.suv it can be hard to manover around the parking structure. Another thing is it takes forever to get on an elevator especially going down. We had to take the stairs most of the time because we had already waited 30 minutes or.more for the elevator and we were only on the 8th floor. Other than the the room and the view was amazing.

Could be better

Arrived with only two parking passes in the condo and we had 4 vehicles. A condo that sleeps over 12 people should have more than two parking passes. The manager wasn’t helpful in getting any more and told us to park at Walmart 1 mile away. Not very happy about that. We were able to get one more parking pass from the office ourselves but still had to park one vehicle at Walmart. The appliances were old and it took the fridge two days to get cold and the freezer never froze our food we had. The renovations looked subpar. I expected better conditions for what we paid for this condo. The complex was nice and was a great place to vacation but the condo and management could have been way better. Also there was not much provided for cooking and everything seemed dollar store cheap. We will find a different condo next time.

Nicholle great; Elevators,Wrist Bands & Property Staff not great

Nicholle made the check-in & check-out easy. She was great to work with. Reserved parking spot convenient. Support beam made parking large vehicle difficult. Food access easy. Property next door to a restaurant/bar. Walmart close. Ice cream, coconut drinks, bar, etc on property. REQUIRED to wear non-removable plastic bracelets for entire stay. The woman was SNARKY about replacing them when break. Pool large. Water clean & warm. Difficult to find a chair because people "reserve" all the chairs with towels at 6am, so others can't use them. Chairs sit empty for hours with towels & no one using them. Occasionally the staff tried to manage this, but not consistent & not monitored, so wasn't effective. Photo of spaces not current. Room needs a few decor & couch cover updates. Room on 8th floor with great view of pool & nice side views of ocean. Stairs close. Patio had a tall table with 4 comfortably-padded chairs. Plastic lounge chair, side table & 2 lawn chairs. Shade in morning, sun in evening. Rooms good. Mattresses comfortable & bedding nice. Bunk beds not private, but comfortable & safe for young children. A fan was provided. Used to create ambient noise so children could sleep while adults still using shared spaces. Bathrooms adequate & accessible from bedrooms. Kitchen had all needed. Dead Bolt lock very difficult to unlock. Needs replaced. Elevators were busy & slow. At least 1 was broken 5 of 7 days. Wash Dryer & beach toys nice extras! Property on VERY crowded Beach site.

Beautiful Grounds

Great place - sometimes the elevators were a wait and crowded but that is typical of most resorts in the peak season....wasn't a huge fan of not being able to drink near the pool but other than that it was wonderful. Love the convenience of onsite bar, grill, coffee, & ice cream shop....also liked that there was a restaurant literally next door.
