Photos and Description of the Celadon Beach Resort vacation condo rental
1BR Oceanfront Vacation Rental Panama City Beach, Florida USA

Ahhh... now it's time for a vacation! Come be among the first to enjoy Celadon Beach Resort -- right on the beach, in Panama City Beach (the west end).

We offer for your vacation pleasure 'Fins to the Left!' Luxurious fun for up to six guests. Many have heard of Panama City Beach, and some have not. For those who are unfamiliar, we have the whitest, nicest, softest sand in the US. Our crystal-clear gulf waters rival the Bahamas! Beach fun, tennis, watersports, fishing, golf, amusement parks, waterslide parks, arcades, goofy golf, Gulf World and more. It's either on site or minutes away! Enjoy the quiet luxury of our resort and beach, or venture out and party just minutes away! We have fun available not just for kids, but for the 'big kids' too! You work hard ... isn't it time to play a little? Glance at our amenities (below) and you'll see that our condo lacks nothing and is waiting for you to create memories of a lifetime. Come and enjoy!!

Almost two towns in one ...: Our crystal-clear gulf waters really do rival the Bahamas! Our sand is so white and clean that it actually squeaks when you walk in it (seriously)!! Our beaches are consistently rated the best in the United States, and for good reason. Absolutely gorgeous, so bring your sunscreen!

Panama City Beach is almost two towns in one. 5-10 miles to the east is the party hot spot -- with arcades, goofy golf, go-carts, nightclubs and more. On the western part of the beach (known as the 'west end'), life is quieter and much less hectic. It's more of a family environment -- with quieter beaches and upscale amenities of the new Pier Park.

While the east-end is known for crowds and traffic, the west-end is known for its natural beauty and sunsets (and you should see the stars at night . . . to die for!). To emphasize, we are on the west-end. We are close enough to visit the hot spots, but not so close that you can't hear the sound of the surf at night.

We think it's the best of both worlds!: You will want for nothing!

Celadon Beach Condos is a new resort condo complex, (completed May 2004); so you can enjoy all the features of the newest, nicest condo in the area -- with all the amenities and features you want, including two (yes, 2) swimming pools, jacuzzi, on site tennis and fitness center, private covered parking ... even a kid's arcade game room!

'Fins to the Left!' sleeps four to six persons, with a king bed in the master, twin bunks for the kids, and a queen-size sleeper sofa for extra guests.

Everything is new; this is no old, 'beat-up' beach house here. It's more like the lap of luxury!

And the views! Oh my goodness!! Be sure to bring your camera for views and sunsets that will be the highlight of your vacation photo album!

Decorated in a funky and fun, bright, Caribbean decor, you'll feel like you're on vacation as soon as you enter 'Fins to the Left!' The condo is fully appointed -- from the kitchen to the master bedroom.

Choices, Choices ...: Pier Park is now OPEN!! Fun for the whole family. Featuring Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville!! Enjoy a cool drink on the rooftop, while watching the waves roll in ... and enjoy a Cheeseburger in Paradise!! Also featuring the Back Porch Restaurant, an original Hofbrauhaus (from Munich, Germany!), Tootsie's Country Bar, Reggae J's Caribbean Restaurant (yummy!), art and souvenir shops, snacks, movies and much, MUCH more. Fun for all, with plenty of parking, and only a couple miles east of Celadon. Definitely worth a visit during your stay!

Or, simply relax and enjoy the beach. Beauty for as far as you can see. Our beaches are truly a treasure. Our clear-to-emerald-to-blue waters have to be seen to be believed!! Be sure to bring your camera. Calm, clear waters. Smooth, soft sand. Gently sloping, shallow beaches. And an abundance of wildlife ranging from dolphin to manatee to sea turtles can all be seen from our decks! Lots of fish, too!! Very fun for the kids!

Panama City Beach is almost two towns in one. 5-10 miles to the east is the party hot spot -- with arcades, goofy golf, go-carts, nightclubs and more. On the western part of the beach (known as the 'west end'), life is quieter and much less hectic. It's more of a family environment -- with quieter beaches and upscale amenities of new Pier Park. While the east-end is known for crowds and traffic, the west-end is known for its natural beauty and sunsets (and you should see the stars at night!!). To emphasize, we are on the west-end (specifically, 1.4 miles WEST of the intersection of Hwy 79 and Hwy 98, Front Beach Road). We are close enough to visit the hot spots, but not so close that you can't hear the sound of the surf at night. And we are right on the beach, so let the sound of the surf lull you to sleep each night.

Other Activities: Buy all the beach goodies you need at Alvin's Island right across the street!!

Golf: Golf at one of many beautiful local courses. Golf, Fishing, Water Parks, Shopping and many more activities are outlined in our Activities Guide in the condo. All just minutes away! Check out our Guide, or you can email us with questions.

Snorkel in crystal-clear waters right from our beach. Additional activities include on-site lighted tennis, beachfront watersports (parasail, jetskis, and more!), a workout room/gym. Fish right outside your door! Pompano, redfish, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, bonito, and more can be caught right in the surf. 'Fins to the Left' includes two VCR/TVs, DVD player and CD players, and a selection of videos, CDs, puzzles, books, and games. Buy all the beach goodies you need at Alvin's Island right across the street!!

We do not offer a sub-par, generic rental condo. Our standards are reflected by the high-thread count sheets we have on all our beds. Supplied for your use are full sets of linens, towels, beach towels, beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, beach toys for kids, an initial supply of paper and soap products, and much, much more! So all you need to bring is family, friends, food, drink, and a desire to enjoy the vacation of a lifetime.

We'll be glad to help plan your vacation of a lifetime!

Oh, and welcome to paradise!

Our Family Spring Break Vacation

Submitted: April 10, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
We absolutely loved this condo. The cost was very efficient. Accommidations were more/better than I had expected. The kitchen equipment is totally stocked; Even a mixer!! We baked a cake... hahaha. Roomy refrig & cabinets for items we brought. 2 moms loved the bedrm, with bath, comcast tv (on both tv's). The 4 teenagers, all girls, slept just great they said... even taller ones slept on bunk beds and had stretch room.
Condo not far from elevators... Resort staff also very nice.
If need call Locksmith on refrig door... he was helpful when we got locked out of our car. We had an excellent stay. Very recommended.

disappointing

1 of 5
Submitted: June 26, 2012 Stayed: May 2012
I have rented numerous condos and apartments through VRBO and have always had great experiences and have always given stellar reviews. Sadly, I cannot not with any honesty recommend this location. The condo and its cleanliness was fine. But the first thing you notice once you are in the kitchen and living area is that there is laminated signage (at least 20 of them) all over the place reminding you of the rules and regulations. It gives you the feeling you are in a kindergarten classroom as opposed to a lovely condo. They do not supply a hair dryer so you best bring your own. The beach towels and the outdoor furniture were very cheap and need upgrading. And the view, although pretty, is obstructed by two fishing poles set up at each end of the balcony with two fishing lines stretched across the entire patio. They say it is to prevent the birds however I noticed this condo and the one next door (also owned by the same owners) are the only ones in the building to do so.
But the biggest disappointment is that the owner wanted access twice during the visit: once to have an exterminator spray during our lunch time and the other was when they wanted to take 1 ½ hour to have their air conditioning unit upgraded by an outside electrician and his apprentice. Obviously, we were surprised that this work was not scheduled during a check-out/check-in period or when the unit was empty. Renters Beware!
Owner's Response: When you’re in this business, it’s only a matter of time before you run into (not to be disrespectful, but this is our opinion) a psycho-crazy guest. Luckily for us, it’s the first time it’s happened in 14 years – just look at our other reviews. This guest’s review is the result of them having been charged $45 for denying us access to our unit for a prescheduled visit to replace a thermostat we suspected was failing. It’s important to note that our Vacation Rental Agreement (that this guest signed) clearly states that we have a right to enter the unit for maintenance purposes. We always notify guests when this is required, and try to accommodate their schedules, and always provide at least 24 hrs notice (as per our Agreement). Despite 48 hrs notice and an additional courtesy call 30 minutes in advance of arrival, having spoken both times directly to her on the phone during which she shared no objections, upon arrival we were met at the door by him and told (quote) "I didn't read and don't care what the lease says, you're not coming in". We were then subjected to almost 30 minutes of verbal abuse, expletives and threats, costing us and our a/c vendor time and money. Finally, it was decided that it was not worth the effort to deal with this guest, and we left without replacing the thermostat. This guest was billed a small fraction of our cost and was very upset by this. The review they wrote contains some accuracies (we do not supply blow dryers; we do have approximately 12 postings – beach safety, TV channels, turtle nest alerts, check-out checklist, etc.) and contains some complete falsehoods (we did not schedule 2 maintenance visits; there was no “apprentice”).

In closing, we don’t know if this guest’s behavior was due to illicit activity in the unit or simple selfishness, but this guest was in clear violation of our Agreement and was informed of this fact at the time. We suggest that next time they rent someone’s home, they read and follow the Rental Agreement, respect owner’s rights and honor their commitments (as when they agreed to the scheduled maintenance visit).

P.S. If you have a question about the fishing poles, email us. They are very effective in keeping seagulls off the decks, which are unfortunately attracted by unknowing guests feeding them (a no-no). The seagulls then “adopt” your deck and make a big mess. Many Celadon owners utilize various means to repel birds (fake owls, etc.). We think ours is best and least visible.

Fantastic Vavation Rental!

5 of 5
Submitted: March 6, 2011 Stayed: October 2010
What a terrific place! The owners have done an incredible job creating an “all encompassing” beach experience. You have everything anyone staying at Celadon has: a well-kept building, a beautiful beach, a gorgeous view, close proximity to shopping, activities and restaurants. The difference at Fins to the Left is inside the unit itself.

The colorful, welcoming linens and décor. The games. The videos. The beach chairs and umbrella. The cooler. The beach toys. The kitchen appliances. The festive serving platters. It is so much easier to pack for the beach knowing all of these items are already at your vacation home. The fun, festive décor in this condo puts you in vacation mode instantly. Each time you step back in through the door you are transformed. The attention to detail is evident everywhere you look. It is just a bright, happy, fun place!

The owners are extremely helpful and they were easy to work with during the booking process. They made several good suggestions as to where to eat and shop. We have stayed at several other units in Celadon and none of the others compare to this one. We will definitely be back!
