We had an amazing stay at the Grand Castle in Panama City Beach during the 4th of July week! The property was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach and close to plenty of great restaurants, shopping, and attractions.
The accommodations were comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the third floor lookout was the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee and unwind after a day at the beach. Even with the holiday crowds, the property was well maintained and we always felt safe and welcomed.
One of the highlights of our trip was being so close to all of the Independence Day festivities. Watching the fireworks over the beach made for an unforgettable experience.
Overall, we had a fantastic vacation and wouldn’t hesitate to stay at the Grand Castle again. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, convenient, and enjoyable place to stay in Panama City Beach. We can’t wait to come back!- Reviewed On: 7/9/2026

We loved our stay here! The house is even better in person than in the pictures!The home was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. We especially loved the screened porch for relaxing and the upstairs viewing area was a nice bonus. The extra-tall doors and windows are a great touch - we thought they were just a design feature at first, but the shower really made it clear this is a tall person’s dream! If you’re tall, you’ll love it. If not, we still absolutely loved our stay!Great location - easy walk to the beach, Thomas Donuts, and Carousel Supermarket. Quiet, safe, and a really well-kept street.The only small change we would make would be switching to king beds in the larger master rooms for a bit more space and comfort.We’d happily stay again!- Reviewed On: 6/11/2026
