Overview ↑↓

This freshly remodeled 2 bedroom, 2 bath penthouse with million-dollar views of the Gulf is an incredible option for guests, families, and friends to book an unforgettable getaway to the famed area of Panama City Beach.
The living room is spacious and inviting, with large glass patio doors that let in an abundance of natural light, bathing the room in a warm and bright glow. Perfect for entertaining or simply lounging with a good book after a day of exploring the Panama City Beach area.

The kitchen and dining space in a spacious open-concept design is a chef's dream come true, equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a large refrigerator, stove, and dishwasher. The granite countertops gleam in the sunlight as it streams through the large glass sliding doors, which offer an unobstructed view of the startlingly blue ocean stretching out before you as far as the eye can see. The double sink faces the glass balcony doors, so while you're washing dishes or preparing meals, you can still take in the breathtaking view. This floor plan flows seamlessly from the kitchen into the dining area, anchored by a coastal-style white dining table with seating for four and four stools for additional seating at the kitchen island.

A stay in the Primary Suite is a luxurious and private retreat in its own right, nestled within the penthouse - furnished with solid dark furniture that creates a sense of sophistication and calm. The king-sized bed is comfortable, with plush pillows and a soft, inviting comforter to cuddle up with at night or for a midday nap. A flat-screen TV is perfectly placed above the dresser, providing entertainment for when you want to relax in bed while listening to the peaceful sounds of the ocean right outside the glass balcony doors. This suite also has its own 4-piece en-suite bathroom and plenty of counter space.

The Guest Bedroom is a bright and inviting space perfect for another couple or children you may be traveling with.
The queen-sized bed is the centerpiece of the room, with a comfortable mattress, a fresh comforter, and plush pillows to sink into and relax after a long day out at the attractions, swimming in the pool, or enjoying the beach.

A private balcony with an unforgettable view of the Gulf from both the living room and primary suite is just the beginning of the outdoor amenities at this premiere beach accommodation. Staying here, you’ll have immediate beach access as well as the use of the sparkling resort community pool, ideal for swimming laps or simply soaking up the sun. The pool area is also surrounded by plenty of lounge chairs, so you can sit back and relax to enjoy the beach read you’ve brought along.

Sterling Reef PH invites you to PCB for the perfect sun & sand getaway. So, pack that sunscreen & book that flight - we can't wait to host you!

A Wonderful Stay

Review Date: September 2, 2025

Vacation Date: August 29, 2025

"We had a wonderful vacation at this unit PH02. It is clean, well-maintained and seems newer like more recently remodeled. The view from the Balcony is the best!! Amazing view. The only complaints I have are the curtains are pretty sheer in the living room & master bedroom.. so expect sunlight to come in pretty early. Also the sleeper sofa mattress is too worn out to sleep on, so my daughter just slept on the sofa with the sheets provided. Everything else there was absolutely perfect and we all really enjoyed it! The elevators are quick.. not much wait times. Really nice place & I would definitely stay there again & I do recommend this place. The king size bed in the master is comfy. Both bathrooms have plenty of room as well.

Really nice condo

Review Date: May 28, 2025

"We were here over Memorial day weekend. This area was sleas congested than the areas farther west and Destin (we visited other family). My only complaint is that the rules and codes need to be updated before sending the email to renters. The email started that parking pass was in the condo (something I'm accustomed to), but they have gone digital and parking was $50. The QR code didn't work so had to call for a link. Beach gate code did not work. We spent over an hour trying to get in the gate as we had carried all of our things up the stairs from the beach. None of the codes worked that the host had. Security nevr came. My fiance walked around to security who gave us the wrong code. He went back to security and while waiting for him to come I lifted ALL of our things, including a cooler over the gate. Also checkout was at 10, but housekeeping was knocking on the door at 8am.

Response from Blue Swell :
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad you enjoyed the location and that it felt a bit less congested over the busy Memorial Day weekend — that’s definitely one of the advantages of this area. That said, we sincerely apologize for the frustrating issues you encountered with gate access, parking, and early housekeeping. These are not the kinds of first (or last) impressions we want guests to have. Your feedback about the outdated instructions and non-working codes is incredibly helpful, and we’re actively reviewing and updating our pre-arrival communications to ensure everything reflects the current procedures, especially with digital passes and access codes. We also completely understand how stressful it must have been to deal with the gate situation — especially after carrying everything up from the beach. That should have been a smooth process, and we're truly sorry it wasn’t. Thank you again for your honest feedback, and we hope we’ll have the opportunity to provide a much better and more seamless experience in the future.

"We found the Condo as advertised. Stunning views of the Gulf and a fabulous location. It was clean, and spacious for the four of us. Only minor complaints are, both mattresses on the beds would probably be better if replaced. Also, the lack of less opaque, or blackout curtains in the main bedroom meant at dawn the guests in that room were up. The lack of included beach chairs was something I had inquired about before hand, so a quick Wal Mart trip later 4 chairs at $16 a piece solved that problem.

The location seemed to be centralized and we found it easy to get to the places we wanted to go.

Beach was awesome. Spacious, clean, and powder sand.

We are already talking on making a return trip next year!

"This condo was absolutely beautiful. Awesome view. Loved being able to wake up and look at the ocean. Some of the best nights sleep I’ve ever had away from home. Very clean and plenty of towels (which in some places you don’t get a lot of towels). Giant master bathtub. Perfect location for walking to do shopping and eating. The only issue I had was we didn’t get to stay long enough. I would rent this condo again and again if I could. 100% recommend.

"Staying at Sterling Reef was awesome! My wife and I, along with another couple, had an amazing vacation. The room was clean, the view from PH02 was spectacular, and the staff was very helpful. When we arrived, we did have issues with our door code. Nothing in our instructions said to hit the check mark button after putting in the code. We had to call Blue Swell and get a new code. That was somewhat annoying after driving 15 hours. Also, please let future tenants know to lock the door on the way out, they need to press any button. We were not aware of that. I have one suggestion for the unit. Please put blackout curtains/shades in both bedrooms. The master bedroom gets light early, and the window in the smaller bedroom shows a lot of the hallway light. Overall, it was a great get a way for everyone involved. I can't wait for our next trip to PCB. We will be staying at Sterling Reef.

"We loved our stay here at this location for our vacation & hope to be back another time, the view was so beautiful & we were near everything we needed & wanted to do ! The beach was so private we loved how it wasn’t so crowded. The condo was so pretty also loved the setup ! The few things that stood out was the rusted chairs were in bad condition on the balcony, the coffee maker buttons were stuck, the lamp wouldn’t properly work in the front beach bedroom & the tv lagged & wouldn’t work at times in the back bedroom. But Thank you for everything, we will be back ! ��

"Great stay. My family really enjoyed it. The view was spectacular and we'd definitely stay here again. I gave it 4 stars out of five. I've listed a few items of concern of why I didn't give it five stars, but believe me we had a wonderful stay and again would definitely come back.
1. The master bedroom really needs a sun blocking curtain. Sometimes it's nice to sleep in and the thin see through curtain blocks no sun and provides no privacy from anyone out on the deck.
2. The master bed is pretty old and could use replacement. It's not too sturdy.
3. Receptacle on deck doesn't work and needs replaced. At times we'd want to charge our phone while sitting outside.
4. The dryer vent screen needs replaced. Definitely a fire hazard. The metal screen is broken and a lot of lint passes through. I would HIGHLY recommend the dryer and exhaust hose be inspected and cleaned.
5. The metal iron chairs on the deck need replaced. They are rusting badly and more importantly broken in several spots causing sharp points that can cut you bad.
Overall a wonderful stay and we are grateful we found this place. Thanks again!
