Nice property and great location. It was nice to have a full kitchen and to spend time relaxing on the huge balcony. Convenient for accessing everything in Baytowne Wharf. Also nice for exploring the surrounding area (Panama City, Grayton Beach Destin).

Great set up for families

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the perfect unit for our family of four. Everyone had their own space. The balcony is amazing in the morning and evening. The unit is well insulated and you can’t hear anything outside while the doors are closed. You are close to the nightlife activities and it’s easy to get down to the beach!

We really enjoyed our vacation at 552 Observation Point. Our host was very helpful and welcoming and the online check-in and checkout was great. Sunsets from this balcony are outstanding and the activities below kept us entertained. Not a quiet spot but a fun one!

We enjoyed the view and the room a lot. We did bring a lot of paper products of our own thankfully, but everything else was provided! The kitchen did lack a few things for cooking a large meal, but for a vacation spot was awesome!

Excellent Room

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! Our only complaint was that it is directly above Rum Runner which is open until 2am. You can hear the music and laughter below. If you need to sleep in silence, this might be a little disruptive. Otherwise, we loved it and highly recommend staying here.

Center of Action

It was just as advertised! We’ve been to Baytowne before so we had an idea of what we were in for. Close to all the shops and restaurants! Great views, including the bay. The one thing I would caution you about is the noise at night. If you are a light sleeper, this may not be the spot for you. The room is across from the bar and it is LOUD until 2:00 a.m. every night. Not just the music, but people screaming! Other than that, it was perfect!
