I will say it was very windy and cool in march for spring break it was advertised that the pool was heated but it was not turned on and the pool was like ice. If you need the wheelchair or handicap assistance find out how to use it before going if not you have about 13 steps not bad but that just depends on if you can do steps or not. I asked for my mom the 1st day and got a txt back from vacsa we will get back to you - that was tuesday morning it is now saturday night and i have yet to get a msg back about it. If the pool had been heated like it said i would have pushed and called but it was cold so she just stayed in the condo and hung out on the balcony with the beautiful gulf view front and center. The city of mexico beach are working on beach nourishment (replenishing sand) and dune restoration so to get to the beach can be a little hard as the dune is huge. You have to climb up and over and to come back from the beach it's easier if you go down just a little bit and come up at an angle but as we head home the workers are planting vegetation to help the dunes so you will not be able to do that for long. The view of mexico beach was beautiful! I love that it is a mom and pop kind of town with not a crazy about of college spring breakers. It was crazy it's in the central time zone and 4 minutes down the road you are in eastern. So keep that in mind when you are looking for a place to eat. The forgotten coast brewery was a fun little place to try different local beers. Mago marley's was very yummy we just did appetizers and had a bucket ( it truly is huge) it is like 5 drinks in 1 for $40. It would be great to share. If you head over to port st. Joe you should hit up krazyfish food was very good and a cute little ice cream shop down the street within walking distance. As you drive around go dow 30a and hit up hunt's on st.Joe bay staff was friendly, food was yummy but the best part was eating on the water. We stayed at the Vue condo complex and rented via Vacasa. We originally for the condo on VRBO and tried to rent from them but had to pay an extra 121$ for fees from VRBO. So look at Vacasa and compare before you book it could possibly save a little money.

Incredible historical hilltop fort. Plan on walking and…read moreclimbing a bunch of old stairs, hills and hallways! This place is a hidden historic hideout. Per site: Fort Barrancas sits on a bluff overlooking the entrance to Pensacola Bay. The natural advantages of this location have inspired engineers of three nations to build forts. The British built the Royal Navy Redoubt here in 1763 of earth and logs. The Spanish built two forts here around 1797. Bateria de San Antonio was a masonry water battery at the foot of the bluff. Above it was earth and log Fort San Carlos de Barrancas. American engineers remodeled the Water Battery in 1840 and built a masonry fort on the bluff between 1839 and 1844, connected by a tunnel to the Water Battery. This is the current Fort Barrancas. A $1.2 million, eighteen-month restoration project led to its reopening in 1980. My son and I had a great time and were amazed by all the hidden caves and scenery. A must see for the historians in the family. (not a good place for wheel chairs)

Imagine my disappointment when I discovered all the trash the CC and their families left behind. Beer bottles, beer cans, water bottles and trash from food packages and plates, plus cigarettes butts. These were all left by the volleyball area where they were holding competitive (friendly) tournaments. As a first time visitor, and an advocate for our environment and beaches, I could not turn a blind eye and ignore the debris. I went to work to clean up their mess. Where I am from, Santa Cruz, Ca, we have a local motto "Pack your Trash"!! We, the locals, try to teach this concept to our numerous tourist and guests, as we too, live in a "seaside" resort. I would love to see the Panama City Beach Chamber of Commerce show respect and appreciation to their lovely coastline that it deserves, and lead by example. Mind you, multiple trash containers where within 10 - 15 feet of most of the garbage. =/ Save our Shores!! =)

"We will not waver; we will not tire; we will not falter, and we will not fail. Peace and Freedom will prevail." Located right at the end of Harrison Ave on the water.

To drive up and around North and West Bay to get here would more than double the time. But now there's this great piece of engineering that you can just zip along and over on US Route 98 and there you are. The current Hathaway Bridge was constructed in 2003 and replaced the St. Andrews Bay Bridge that had been built in 1959. Amazingly, the Hathaway Bridge only cost $80 million. That seems low, given the usual Florida contracting. Five stars for being a great ride and with parking for fishing on both sides plus a pedestrian path along the side of the bridge that's protected from the vehicles? Awesome! Thanks, Hathaway Bridge!
