Watercrest 2026 was for sure one for the books

We loved the view the tiki bar the room. But I think our favorite part of being there was the security guard Mr Ron he was so friendly and super observant he was always there when we pulled into the parking lot making sure it was clean and safe and every time we got off the elevator he was not far away if we needed anything.

It wasn't really anyone's fault but there was only one elevator working that would take you above the 6th floor and we where on the 12 floor so some time we would just walk up to the 12 floor and it was really a big problem but we did have a 1 year old who could barely walk and it was a little tough getting her up 12 flights of stairs

Manager response:

Thank you, Colbie, for sharing your experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you loved the view, the tiki bar, and your room. It’s wonderful to know that Mr. Ron made such a positive impact on your stay. His dedication to ensuring a clean and safe environment truly reflects the care we strive to provide.

We completely understand how challenging it can be to navigate the stairs, especially with a little one in tow. That shouldn’t have been your experience, and we appreciate your patience during that time. We’re actively working to improve our facilities to ensure a smoother stay for all our guests.

We hope to welcome you back to Watercrest for another memorable visit, where we can provide you with an even better experience.

Overall a good experience but not the best as we travel to Panama multiple times a year.

It was a very easy process to check in and out. The actual unit was very spacious and clean. No complaints at all on the actual unit. It had an amazing patio and view of the beach. The pool was nice and we loved the easy access to the beach.

Downfalls: you cannot listen to music anywhere outside near there property. You cannot have a pet unless you are the owner. Parking was $60 which is insane! The bbq grills are located at the very front entrance of property which made things very inconvenient. The last and absolute worst part was there was only 1 elevator for 18 floors worth of people so many times you were waiting 15/20 minutes just to go up or down. Also security that works over night went into the hvac closet located in front of the unit we were staying in (still don't know why) but then he went and hit every floor level on the elevator to delay any of us coming up while he was there. That made us feel extremely uncomfortable and some of the other people staying there as well as we were all waiting for the elevator and saw what he did. Due to the cons outweighing the pros we will not be staying there in the future.

Manager response:

Thank you, Loni, for sharing your thoughts about your recent stay with us. We’re glad to hear that you found the check-in and check-out process easy, and that you enjoyed the spacious unit, beautiful patio, and beach access. It’s wonderful to know that you appreciated the cleanliness and the pool as well.

We genuinely regret that your experience was marred by some inconveniences. We understand how frustrating it can be to deal with limited elevator access, especially in a building with so many floors. That’s certainly not the level of comfort we aim to provide. We also hear your concerns about the BBQ grill location and the parking fees, and we appreciate you bringing these points to our attention.

Your comfort and peace of mind are important to us, and we’re sorry to hear that the actions of the security staff made you feel uncomfortable. We will address this with our team to ensure that all guests feel safe and respected during their stay.

While we’re disappointed to learn that you won’t be returning, we truly appreciate your feedback. It helps us improve and provide a better experience for future guests. If you ever decide to give us another chance, we’d love to welcome you back and show you the care and attention that Avari is known for.

It was very fun and relaxing!!!

It was in a great location, very clean and the staff was very friendly!!!

I didn’t like the fact that you had to pay to park after paying so much for the room that should be included like other places.

Manager response:

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you found our location great, enjoyed the cleanliness of the home, and felt welcomed by our friendly team. Your comfort and relaxation are our top priorities, and it’s wonderful to know we hit the mark in those areas.

We completely understand your frustration regarding the parking fees. It’s important for us to be transparent about all costs, and we appreciate your feedback on this. We’re always looking for ways to enhance our guests' experiences, and your insights help us do just that.

We’d love to welcome you back for another fun and relaxing stay in Panama City Beach!
