Waterfront Condo with Stunning Gulf View, Shared Pool, Hot Tub
The balcony of this Panama City Beach vacation rental almost extends over the Gulf of Mexico, creating an ethereal environment and a backdrop of the sunset and waves. Panoramic views, paired with shared amenities that include a swimming pool and hot tub, make this beachfront condo the perfect sun-kissed getaway for family or friends!
The condo is ideally located on Front Beach Road, just half a mile from the heart of town. The city's three hottest attractions – Gulf World Marine Park, Miracle Strip Amusement Park, and Pier Park – are all within five miles of your door. The beach, an outdoor pool, and a wonderful hot tub are mere steps away as well.
Contemporary furnishings and subtle beach decor make the space stylish, while amenities like a washer/dryer and WiFi make guests feel right at home. The open-concept living room is practically an extension of the balcony, showcasing stellar Gulf views and cozy upholstered furniture. Cloudy days may spoil your view, but three flatscreen cable TVs throughout the home will always keep you entertained!
The two-bedroom, two-bath condo comfortably sleeps four guests (with a six-person maximum). Two lucky guests can share the master suite which boasts a king-size bed, private bath, media entertainment, and balcony access. The second room has another spacious king bed, and a queen-size sofa sleeper is available for two more guests.
At meal time, choose informal noshing at the breakfast bar with seating for four, or the formal dining table with space for six. Nothing shows your guests you care more than a home-cooked meal of fresh seafood! The kitchen is accommodating with modern appliances and plenty of counterspace for convenient meal prep.
You can even mix up your meals with a feast on the balcony! The space provides two chaise lounges and a bistro table for four. Pamper guests with mimosas in the morning and shrimp cocktails at sunset. You simply won't find better views of Florida's famed white sand beaches and emerald green waters!
Spend your days boogie boarding or digging moats around your sandcastle at the beach. Grab dinner and a fruity drink at Pineapple Willy's, then dance the night away at the famed Spinnaker Beach Club. Family attractions are within easy reach, so you can pet dolphins at Gulf World Marine Park or shop and ride roller coasters at the amusement rides near Pier Park.
Outdoor enthusiasts can dive around shipwrecks and 50 artificial reefs just off shore, or hike into fishing jetties and marshes at St. Andrews State Park. The city is host to countless dolphin watching tours, charter fishing vessels, and water sport equipment rentals. If you can dream it, you can do it at Panama City Beach!
You'll never tire of the view from this wonderful Florida vacation rental. Let your worries wash away with the waves on a special holiday today!

The view was awesome and the beach was great
Jennifer b.Jul 2021
Looks like the housekeeper sweeps all the trash under the beds, I tripped over the carpet because it had a flip on one end, there was blood stains on a pillow, markings on the wall and cheap particle board dressers in the rooms.
We are sorry to read you had some unpleasant experiences while staying with us. The walls are all repainted, the stove eyes are replaced, pillows cleaned, and new cookware is in place. Housekeeping has done a thorough cleaning under the furnishings as well. Thank you!
Elizabeth S.Jun 2021
This place is so nice and peaceful,had a perfect vacation even through a tropical storm. Most definitely will be back
Tabitha S.Jun 2021
Pros: Amazing View. Comfortable beds. Quick elevators. Great water pressure. Easy to get to the beach. Parking isn’t a pain. There’s a closet with quite a bit of extra beach gear. There’s a daiquiri shack across the street!
Cons: Couch desperately needs to be replaced. Rusted balcony furniture. Poorly built/falling apart furniture inside. Kitchen pots and pans is extremely limited. Kitchen light was great when it came on (sometimes we had to flip the switch multiple times for it to come on). My email told me to go to the HOA office for my complementary parking passes but guy told me that they should have been left in the condo and tried to charge me $20 each. When I contacted vacasa, all they said was that I needed to pick up passes from the HOA office. We ended up risking it and parked without them.
Overall, it wasn’t awful but could have been better.
Thank you for staying with us! We are so glad you had a great time! We take guest feedback seriously and have forwarded this information to the local staff so they can review and update the home as needed for future guests. We will be sure to follow up with the appropriate parties regarding your experience. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again soon!
Kyle T.Jun 2021
The beds were really comfortable, the view was great (AMAZING BALCONY), and the proximity to the beach was wonderful. The kitchen was lacking in working appliances (only 2 burners worked on the stove), and the kitchen chairs and coffee table were literally coming apart. We did a lot of cooking in the room, and the lack of mixing bowls, large skillets, etc. was frustrating, but nothing we couldn't work around. Not luxury, but definitely a great trip in a workable, clean space.
Tramayel J.Mar 2021
I absolutely enjoyed my stay at Ocean Villa! The location was perfect and the condo was nice and clean! I most def recommend and will book here in the future!!
SONIA W.Oct 2020
This was my first rental, I really enjoyed it, I had a wonderful experience.,,
Dawn K.Jun 2020
We loved the view, pool area was clean. The day we arrived checkin was 4pm the room wasnt clean, refrigerator didnt cool an room was 92 degrees. The lease company did give cleaning fee back
Dawn, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay. We apologize that your experience in our home was not the vacation for which you had planned, which we strive to provide our guests. We are working closely with our housekeeping team to ensure that they are paying close attention to detail while preparing for guests and following the current COVID-19 cleaning protocols. However, we would like to apologize for this experience and appreciate you allowing us to refund your cleaning fee due to our oversight. We hope to have another chance to impress you in the future!
Bonnie S.Jun 2020
The room was awesome but I rented a view..I was not disappointed at all...the room could use some slight upgrades toaster...tvs etc....but I didnt go for those things very minor inconvience for me
DUSTIN N.Jun 2020
Upon arrival several things needed to be fixed. Microwave face was broken, Fridge drawers cracked, iron busted, outdoor patio light broke, patio furniture rusted bad and broken in some areas, most of the indoor furniture outdated and peeling from Wear and tear and age, ceiling fans in both bedrooms was broke and taped together, couch broken in middle to drops down when sit on it, multiple repairs and updates needed. Was not worth what I paid for the stay, pictures made it look better.
Hi, Dustin! Your feedback is so valuable though we are sorry to read you were not happier. The property manager will be discussing your concerns with the owner. Thank you!
stacey a.Jul 2019
I loved staying here, the view of the ocean was beautiful and breathtaking. The balcony was my favorite. The room was clean and had everything we was looking for in a room. The only thing we didn’t like was the couches was dated and broke down and the air conditioner being controlled by WiFi. It was very hot in our room the first night. But after the maintenance man came and called it was fixed and we slept pretty comfortable. Loved the location of the place and the amenities it offered. It was in walking distance to a lot of shops and things to do. I would highly recommend checking out oceanvilla 1802 for your stay at Panama City beach. It was a beautiful clean place to stay!!!
Ashley B.Jul 2019
It was such an awesome trip. Amazing views.
Christy C.Jun 2019
I loved how the owner him self called me several times and how nice he was in accommodating my small children .he would be the reason why I would choose to rent from vacasa again .
Brenda A.Oct 2018
katona m.Sep 2018
Pictures are very deceiving! If your okay with mediocreness, and seeing a roach here and there then u will prob be okay considering the view. I slept on the balcony! However inside does not look like what you see in the pics EVERYTHING is raggedy and dirty. This condo has potential but it appears the owners are not willing to sacrifice the money for it!
Kimberly M.Sep 2018
My family and I stayed here for a weekend. The condo was nice. It was well kept and felt like home. It’s also close to the store which was very convenient. There were also beach chairs and beach toys that were in the closet. The owner also called to make sure we checked in ok and to see if we had any questions. One of the best things about my stay was the ability to have a late check in. The late check in was a life saver and it wasn’t too expensive. I would definitely stay here again.
Steven C.Aug 2018
great location, great price and great accommodations..... Would love to stay here again.....
samantha m t.Jul 2018
The condo was pretty clean-view was great.
Sheryl C.Jul 2018
The condo was very roomy and well stocked. Loved the water and beach
thomas b.Jul 2018
The condo was great. management was there ready to answer any questions or problems we might have.
Stephanie B.May 2018
The view of the ocean was beautiful but the condo def needs updated in the bathrooms. The rug in the kitchen is very bad stained owner should consider purchasing a new one. Fridge is leaking badly also and a lot of construction going on in the area. Staff at condo was very kind and helpful.
Linda F.Nov 2017
Awesome view but condo has not been maintained well. Shower rod was falling out of wall; there were large, unsightly carpet stains throughout. Sofas were very uncomfortable and need replacing; stove eye needs replacing. Nice place but needs TLC!
The owner has closed this home for the season in order to perform repairs and upgrades. This will include new floors and appliances.
Aimee S.Oct 2017
Carpets were very dirty, dishes in cabinets had dried crusty caked on food on them, side tables/tv stands/coffee tables were very dusty, mildew in the showers, long dark hairs in sink and showers when we 1st arrived, shower curtain rod coming out of the wall in the master bath, no dead bolt on front door or no safety latch. Minor things that in no way ruined any part of my vacation but would make me think twice about using this property again. Oh and the fridge had water standing in the bottom when we first arrived. I cleaned it out and didn't have an issue after that.
We have spoken with housekeeping about paying more attention to detail while dusting and cleaning the shower, and maintenance will be fixing the curtain rod and installing a second lock. Thank you!
Joni A.Oct 2017
Carpet was horribly filthy but the location was A+++++
We have had the carpet professionally cleaned. Thank you!
Stephanie B.Sep 2017
This place was clean and in a great location. View was outstanding. We had a great time!
Kristy W.Aug 2017
We were very happy overall with our stay. Beautiful brow from the balcony!! Nice pools and hot tub!!
Hemwattie S.Aug 2017
Place was clean and comfortable. Some updates in the bathroom would be nice, but family felt we had plenty of space and enjoyed our trip.
Marla F.Jul 2017
would stay here again but not in 1802 needed a lot of improvement
Tiniker B.Jul 2017
It was my birthday and wanted to wake up to the beach!! It was absolutely beautiful!!! My family really enjoyed our selves! This was my first time doing a condo and I fell in love with it. I will definitely be back at this location.
Brad R.May 2017
The perfect spot with spectacular views, has everything you need. Our group of 4 would definitely come back if we visit PCB again.
Shelia K.May 2017
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great location!
Angela S.May 2017
We came down for 5 days and I must say the view from this condo is amazing !!!! The beach was nice and location was great .....pretty much everything in walking distance! I will definitely be booking with Vacasa again.
Laurie P.Apr 2017
My friend an I brought 3 teenage girls (15 yrs old) down for spring the week of April 2nd. We all had a great time. I felt very comfortable with girls walking on the beach An crab hunting on the beach at night on their own. Lots of activities to keep the girls busy. The condo was perfect An the view was amazing. I would def. stay again. The beach was not over crowed like I thought it would. Condo location was perfect. Try dustys for a meal but get their early or you will have a wait. And lots of shopping at the pier
Dorothy W.Apr 2017
We loved that the location of the condo was surrounded with restaurants ( Pineapple Willy's was very nice and service was FANTASTIC!!) We were also extremely close to both Wonderworks, Ripley's Believe It or Not and tons of other recreational parks!
The beds were SSOOO comfortable! There was a stain on the carpet going into the living room area but aside from that the condo was very clean, well maintained, nice décor and had a large patio with breath taking views of the ocean!
There was some construction going on so it was not always easy getting in/out of the parking garage. Although the staff was polite an very helpful, my only suggestion would be to place signs indicating where the office is located. It took WAY too long to find it and made the check-in process VERY irritating.
Overall our stay was amazing! We would definitely book this condo again!
Porsha W.Mar 2017
This was my first time reserving a condo. I was vwey pleased
Dana B.Mar 2017
Rebecca M G.Mar 2017
The location was close to everything
contstruction in front a mess
but that's progress
Susan W.Mar 2017
We came down to attend The Gulf Coast Women's Conference and wanted a nice place to stay for the few days we were there. Ocean Villas was perfect! It was a very nice, clean, and spacious condo. When we come again next year we hope this same unit will be available for us to use again. Time on the balcony in the sun looking at the beautiful emerald color of the ocean and seeing the sea animals was so enjoyable. If we had been in a lower condo we would not have been able to see the things in the water as easily. It just let me know I forgot my binoculars! Great seafood restaurants are around the area too! Until next year!!!
John C.Jan 2017
The condo was great, the location was great, the view was amazing as well. Do not hesitate to stay here, or use VaCasa for any of your bookings. They are a top notch company. The condo was very clean, spacious, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in heading down to the beach.
Shirley L.Oct 2016
I would stay here again. Was on the 18th floor amazing ocean view. Miss that already. Could use some tlc but good place to stay
Toni B.Oct 2016
Property is in a good location, easy beach access and wonderful view. My family of 5 was comfortable here and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
Connie K.Oct 2016
Vince S.Sep 2016
We were happy with the condo. The location is great. Close to everything we needed. Beach was amazing. But the condo needed a good cleaning...especially the bathroom. It was disgusting. Looked like someone forgot to even check the toilet. We went about cleaning stuff to clean it ourselves.
We are sorry to see that cleanliness was lacking and would have sent over housekeeping had we been notified.
Don P.Sep 2016
the only place to stay
Lori C.Sep 2016

Michael S.Jul 2016
This was our first time to Florida and to stay using Vacasa. Was worried at first and had a lot of questions but the staff answered them quickly and professionally. View was great, condo was very clean and near many restaurants and grocery stores. Did not want to leave and would return for future vacations.
Verlyn B.Jul 2016

Jacquetta B.Jun 2016
Ocean Villa 1802 provided me and my family with the same comforts of home. We were on the 18th floor and the view was very overwhelming. We enjoyed every minute of it. The condo was very clean and pleasant. The beds were so comfortable, I did not want to leave. I will be back to PCB before the summer ends and will be reserving another spot there.
John C.Jun 2016
Maintenance was great! Furniture and bed not very comfortable. The building office only deals with people who rent they them. Exercise room not available unless office is open. Was not happy that the beach chairs cost $35.00 s day to rent in addition to villa rental. Other than that we had a great time.
Coressa A.May 2016
Everything was awesome
Tika T.Apr 2016
Having stayed in time shares in the past I had some idea of what to expect as it relates to the basics of this condo (furnishing, rooms etc). The condo was nicely furnished and up to date. .As it relates to the area, we couldn't have been in a better spot. The condo sits on the a very beautiful section of the beach...the best in fact. The view from the balcony, which goes the entire length of the condo, is amazing. Also, you can walk down the beach to Pineapple Willie's, one of the bigger eating/bar attractions. It's far enough from everything to be peaceful, yet close enough that you don't feel inconvenienced with a long drive. I'd certainly return to these condos and since I can vouch for this particular unit, I'd recommend it to everyone I know. Oh yeah, I'm a bit of a hotel snob, so I am quit critical. The only issue I could find here is the sheets on the beds were cheap. But the sounds of the waves quickly wiped that issue away!
Diamond A.Apr 2016
This was my very first time using Vacasa. I was really nervous about booking with them since I had never heard of them. So I was waiting for something to go wrong when I got there. I was absolutely amazed on how easy it was to check in and the unit was amazing! I loved everything about it. The beds are so comfortable and the view was astonishing. Very clean and it had everything you could think of. This unit can be used as a romantic getaway or for a family. I will definitely be back and will be using Vacasa in the near future.
Amanda G.Apr 2016
Clean and comfy!!
Sherry S.Apr 2016
It stormed on us the entire trip, but that was okay. We had a wonderful view and a beautiful condo to relax in. The condo was clean, beds are so comfortable. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.
Todd S.Feb 2016
We were very pleased with our stay in Unit 1802 -- this was our first stay in Ocean Reef, although we've staying in similar buildings (Tropic Winds, Twin Palms) on the PCB beach in the past. The building seems well-managed and nicely appointed; there's less under-building parking, so we parked across the street most nights. Walkway was unassuming and easy to get across.
The condo itself seems like it was furnished specifically for rentals; a little sparse but we were comfortable. King beds are very comfortable. Kitchen was outfitted for cooking and missing only a few items that we were able to work around. Vacasa's area manager was responsive -- called and texted to check on us when a storm cut power to the building.
Also appreciated Vacasa's later checkout (11am) and the option to extend to 7pm if no one is checking in the next day. (We didn't take them up on it, but it's a perk I haven't encountered before.)
This unit has a few quirks that might just be because we rented in the off season (some sort of primer paint on the balcony... didn't affect out stay) but overall it was a solid 8 on a 1-10 scale. We were concerned renting a place with no reviews, but the price was great and we enjoyed the time off.

The lunch specials come with salad, soup, dumplings and one of about 8 noodle or curry dishes. Everything was delicious and served very quickly. For lunch at $12, or $16 for premium meats, it's a nice splurge.

SeaWorld San Diego was the first of the now world-renowned SeaWorld parks. In its first year of operation, this park welcomed over 400,000 visitors, whereas today, the park sees over four million visitors a year. With continued expansion, including new thrill rides and attractions, a visit to SeaWorld might seem a bit overwhelming. However, some helpful insider tips can make a huge difference in planning a successful trip to this vacation destination.
11 Must-Have Tips for SeaWorld San Diego
1. Ride Big Attractions First
It used to be that the biggest thrill at SeaWorld was getting splashed by Shamu. Today, SeaWorld San Diego has several big-thrill attractions that can lead to some hefty hour-plus lines as the day goes on. TravelMamas.com recommends you get in line for the popular rides when you first arrive.
Since these attractions are not necessarily right next to each other, prioritize and hit your top pick as soon as the park opens. Rides that can have hour-plus waits include:
- Journey to Atlantis: This unique, five-minute water coaster takes riders on a mystical journey through heavily-themed areas with multiple special effects. The ride culminates in a dramatic drop and resounding splash. The best times to ride are early morning and around the One Ocean and Blue Horizons show times.
- Shipwreck Rapids: This white water rafting ride incorporates a unique underground cavern and a range of waterfalls to cool off riders.
- Manta: Dive, soar, and twist like a ray on SeaWorld San Diego's first multi-media, double-launch coaster. You can also stay on the ground and check out the rays in the interactive grotto.
- Wild Arctic: Guests become researchers on this simulated helicopter flight to the Arctic, where they come face to face with polar bears, beluga whales, foxes, and other Arctic species.
- SeaWorld Skytower: For great views, the Skytower rises 265 feet above the park. On a clear day, guests can see the entire San Diego area up to 100 miles away. Lines on the Skytower can be significantly shorter than the other attractions, but the best time to ride is around noon.
If you want to know which SeaWorld San Diego attractions and rides are the most popular, readers of Theme Park Insider rank exhibits, attractions, and rides.
2. Purchase Quick Queue Tickets
If you want to ride several of the most popular rides, it may be worth spending some extra money to skip the long lines. This is possible with the park's Quick Queue and Quick Queue Premier tickets, which can be purchased as an add-on to regular admission.
- Starting around $30, you can purchase Quick Queue tickets that allow you unlimited, single-day access to the express entrance at Journey to Atlantis, Shipwreck Rapids, Wild Arctic, Manta, and Bayside Sky Ride.
- Available in very limited quantities, Quick Queue Premier tickets start around $40 and include access to all the attractions and reserved seating at many of the popular shows.
3. Schedule Your Day
Aside from riding the star thrill rides, it's crucial to schedule your day so you don't miss the best shows, such as the One Ocean show starring Shamu and friends.
- If your kids want to feed the animals, verify feeding times in the morning so you can plan your route through the park accordingly.
- If there are certain shows you absolutely don't want to miss, check the show schedule before you go. Create a game plan so you aren't scrambling at the last minute only to realize you missed a chunk of your 'must do' list.
4. Consider Behind-the-Scenes Tours
SeaWorld San Diego offers options for behind-the-scenes tours and premium experiences. These tours vary in length based on which tour you choose, and they come at an additional cost. Premium and VIP experiences include:
- Animal Spotlight Tour - Priced around $50, consider this tour if you want to learn more about the residents at SeaWorld San Diego. At the Animal Care Center, you will interact with bottlenose dolphins and their trainers, as well as feed moray eels and sea turtles, all while learning conservation techniques.
- Penguin Up-Close Tour - At a cost of about $60, this tour gives visitors an up-close and personal look at Penguin Encounter. Learn how SeaWorld cares for the penguins and how they adapt to their Arctic climate. At the end, you get to meet a penguin face to face.
- Beluga Interaction Program - Priced around $215 and one of the most expensive tours, guests get to touch and feed beautiful beluga whales. This is a very limited tour that is only open to a few guests each day. Expect chilly water temperatures and, although there is no swimming, you should be sure you're comfortable in chest-deep water. You'll need a swimsuit, but SeaWorld will provide the rest of the equipment. Photographers will also be on hand.
These VIP and premier experiences represent the best in behind-the-scenes opportunities. They are pricey add-on options, but if you have a strong desire to learn more about the animal care facilities and how SeaWorld cares for its residents, they are definitely worth the money.
5. Have a Meal With Shamu
Enjoy one of the unique dining options that let you get up close to SeaWorld's star, Shamu.
Breakfast With Shamu
Breakfast with Shamu is available on weekends and certain weekdays. There is only one seating per day around 10:30 a.m., so it's vital to make advance reservations if this is a top priority.
You can purchase reservations online starting around $26, or you can make reservations at ticket booths or at the Dine with Shamu facility on the day of your visit.
Dine With Shamu
Dine with Shamu is a real VIP experience that is typically available every day. There are several seating times per day for the hour-long experience. Enjoy sustainable seafood and the ability to get up close and personal with Shamu, along with talking to trainers about SeaWorld and Shamu.
Dine with Shamu runs about $40, but you can save $5 by booking in advance on SeaWorld's website. When you go to book, the site will offer you time choices based on availability and park operating hours.
6. Make the Most of Your Food Budget
Pack a Picnic
SeaWorld does not allow guests to bring food into the park. However, if you are driving and have somewhere to store a cooler, pack a lunch and head out for a tailgate picnic, or use one of the picnic tables just near the park's entrance.
All-Day Dining Pass
If you aren't going to bring a picnic, consider purchasing all-day dining. For just under $35, you get all-day access to restaurants like Shipwreck Reef Cafe, Calypso Bay Smokehouse, Mama Stella's Pizza Kitchen, and Café 64. This can add up to significant savings if you plan to eat all your meals in the park each day, and you can save an additional $5 if you book directly on SeaWorld's website. Note that the All-Day Dining option is not valid for premium experiences like Dine with Shamu or Breakfast with Shamu.
Healthy Dining Choices
Unlike some theme parks, there are options for healthier cuisine at SeaWorld San Diego. Restaurants like Shipwreck Reef Cafe have a lot of options and can cater to special culinary needs with their low-fat, low-carb, and meatless menus. Additionally, spots like Cafe 64 let you build your own burger, and they also offer turkey and vegetarian options.
7. Choose the Best Time to Visit
San Diego is blessed with decent weather year round, but here's definitely an increase in SeaWorld visitors during summer, so that is when the park is most crowded. According to USA Today's Travel Tips Section, the best time of year to visit is anytime but summer.
There are typically fewer visitors during the spring and fall seasons, and you'll likely encounter the smallest crowds during winter. However, winter is also the time of year that hours and staff are likely to be scaled back.
8. Get the Best Ticket Deals
Buy Advance Tickets Online
Save time by purchasing SeaWorld tickets prior to your visit, thereby eliminating the need to stand in line. Look for discount tickets on SeaWorld's website, including special weekday discount tickets.
Consider Season Passports
If you plan to visit SeaWorld more than one day, compare pricing for single day tickets versus season passports, which come with a variety of discounts and benefits.
Multi-Park Combination Tickets
SeaWorld San Diego sells Southern California combination tickets, which are also a good value. These allow guests to take advantage of savings at other area attractions as well, including the San Diego Zoo, Universal Studios Hollywood, Disneyland, and Disney's California Adventure.
For example, a 2014 Southern California CityPASS typically costs around $330 for adults and $290 for children. It's valid for 14 days and gives you access to:
- One day at SeaWorld and a second day free
- A 3-day park hopper for Disneyland Resort
- One day at Universal Studios Hollywood
- Additional perks like Magic Morning entry at Disneyland
Free Admission for Military Personnel
If you are active military or in the National Guard (member or reserve), the Waves of Honor program gives you one day free admission for you and up to three dependents.
AAA members can save up to 15% off tickets purchased online, $5 off multi-park tickets and passes at the ticket booth, and up to 10% on up close dining, which requires you to visit the Guest Relations booth.
9. Plan for the Heat
Despite its temperate Southern California location, don't underestimate the heat. SeaWorld San Diego definitely experiences some hot temperatures, especially during the summer.
- Bring hats, sunglasses, cool clothing, and waterproof sunblock.
- If you're wearing sandals, don't forget to put sunblock on your feet. They are one of the most commonly missed areas that can result in a painful sunburn.
- As the temperature rises in the afternoon, consider scheduling indoor and cool weather exhibits like Wild Arctic or Penguin Encounter.
10. Stay Near the Park
Start your day off right by choosing a hotel near SeaWorld that is within walking distance or offers a shuttle to the park. This will allow you to avoid the traffic often encountered when trying to park your car at SeaWorld, as well as the approximately $16 parking fee. If you plan to park at SeaWorld, you can save a little money if you book your parking in advance on the SeaWorld website.
11. Protect Your Electronic Gear
SeaWorld San Diego can be devastating to electronic equipment. With the risk of cameras and smartphones getting soaked during shows, it is important to either purchase a disposable waterproof camera or bring waterproof cases for your existing equipment. If you plan to use your camera phone, use a rugged waterproof case so you can protect your phone from the moisture, as well as damage if it slips out of your hand and hits the ground.
Make the Most of Your Visit

oops, the title should have said The garden Hotel. I'm can't decide on whether to stay at Ocean Key and be right there for the water sports we plan to do and all that goes with that area or to try a B&B for the first time. The Gardens Hotel looks great and includes breakfast, on th other hand, the Ocean Key looks great. At Ocean key we would have the basic room with a balcony and at the Gardens a garden courtyard room.
Has anybody actually stayed at both that can provide some feedback? I understand the differences and locations. I just haven;t been able to make the final choice so i can get booked.
It is an anniversary trip. Thanks for your help.Edited: 4:36 pm, June 27, 2013

Large apartment with stunning views of the Amalfi coast
Firstly the photographs do not show the true size of the apartment, which is huge. We stayed recently and were really impressed. Stunning views from every room. We didn't hire a car, which was advised but used buses and ferries. Our children are older, so on a couple of occasions we walked to Amalfi and Conca do Marini. There were a lot of steps but stunning views. We mastered the bus timetables, each trip was exciting 😂. We enjoyed using public transport (we like 🍷 at mealtimes) but can understand why some people including the host would recommend a car. We visited Amalfi, Sorrento, Capri,Ravello, Furore, Positano, Pompei, all amazing. Sabatino, was our support in Amalfi. He explained the transport and checked up on us. He recommended a restaurant to us, which sent a courtesy car to pick us up and drop us off. The restaurant was in a fantastic position, with amazing views. It had an extensive menu where you could get a huge steak for 11€ and pizzas from 5€ cheaper than any restaurant in Amalfi and our best meals of the holiday and dropped off at your door. What can I say sunshine, amazing apartment, fantastic support and the best views you could ask for. Hence 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.
Thank you Michelle,
It was great to host you and your family.
Beautiful home with spectacular views.
We enjoyed the coast and returning to this quiet lovely home
The apartment was perfect! It was roomy; well located to visit many towns along the coast.
We were met along the road and escorted by Sabastino to the apartment; extremely helpful. We felt we were in good hands and if we required any assistance Sabastino was accessible.
This was a very comfortable and large apartment. It had every item that was needed. Beautiful views of the sea and very nice neighbors. Amalfi as a whole is a very friendly place. The walk into town was very nice with gorgeous views at every turn. Be sure to research the walking trails prior to going and make sure that you have the bus stops researched if you are not driving yourself. I would recommend this apartment.
We had an amazing holiday, the appartment was great!
Our family of 4 stayed in the appartment for a week. It was great! The service provided by the owners was superb starting from booking request until the very end of our vacation. Owner Paola replied to our emails very fast and gave us all the information needed. We were welcomed by owners cousin Sabatino and it was a great pleasure to communicate with him. Sabatino helped us plan our vacation and adviced us on what to visit, where to park a car, shop and etc. Grazie, Sabatino, e stato bello conoscerti, e grazie per il tuo aiuto! Salluti della nostra familia!:)
The appartment itself was very confortable, well equiped, views are spectacular. Appartment is in a very calm and quiet area. It is very close to Amalfi town, so it took just around 15 minutes to get there by car, which is very fast considering local roads:). Additionally appartment was really safe for children, which was a huge advantage for us, and has a free parking available close to it - this is gold worth in amalfi cost:). I would highly recommend this appartment to anyone considering vacation in Amalfi cost.
Kind regards from our family for Paola and Sabatino!
du balcon vous cotoyez les dieux..superbe
très bel appartement , avec un balcon de presque 20 mètres avec une vue sur la mer sur toute la longueur.. très bien équipé , d'une propreté parfaite, au calme.
En revanche il faut une voiture car les bus sont rares à TOVERE...il faut faire 2 kms pour rejoindre l'arrêt sur la route d'AGEROLA ..ça se fait sans problème quand on aime marcher.
Mais le plus appréciable est encore la gentillesse de Sabatino qui vous appelle la navette du restaurant et est à votre disposition si vous avez un problème.
vraiment très belle adresse.

Hotel staff were flexibile when we were driving rally at Klatovy. Thats why we must arrive early in mornings and we have catch breakfast packets. It was very good service. Thanks!
The hotel itself was great; modern rooms with excellent facilities. The check-in/check-out personnel were friendly and efficient. However, I eat dinner in the downstairs restaurant and it was a distressing experience.

Comments on article: InfopediaTalk
Raffles Hotel is a Singapore landmark located at 1 Beach Road. Established in 1887, the colonial-era hotel with a rich history is well known for its period architecture and décor, luxurious accommodation and fine cuisine, and has won numerous accolades over the years. The hotel is known in particular for its popular Tiffin Room buffet, and for the Singapore Sling cocktail created in 1915. Raffles Hotel was first gazetted as a national monument in 1987 and later re-gazetted in 1995.
Raffles Hotel began as Beach House, a private home built in the early 1830s by Robert Scott, a descendant of Sir Walter Scott. In 1878, Dr Charles Emmerson leased the building and opened Emmerson's Hotel. After his sudden death in 1883, the hotel closed and the Raffles Boarding School took up tenancy until its expiry in September 1887.
The Armenian Sarkies brothers, Tigran, Aviet and Arshak, already established hoteliers at the time, then leased Beach House from its owner, the wealthy Arab merchant Syed Mohamed Alsagoff, and announced their intention to turn it into a hotel offering fine accommodation and cuisine. Thus on 1 December 1887, Raffles Hotel commenced operations as a 10-room hotel. While the facilities in its early years were still under development, its prime sea-front location near town made it very popular with European residents and travellers.
Building and development
Under the Sarkies brothers, Raffles Hotel grew as a commercial enterprise. Their commitment to the highest standards in service, accommodation and cuisine was responsible for making Raffles Hotel known as a first-class establishment that attracted guests of stature.
Tigran Sarkies, in particular, was closely involved in the hotel’s development. He established the popular Raffles Tiffin Rooms at Commercial Square and undertook major building projects, adding three buildings to the original Beach House in the hotel’s first decade. A pair of two-storey wings containing 22 new suites was completed in 1890, followed by a new Billiard Room located at the junction of Beach Road and Bras Basah Road. In 1892, the brothers leased the site at No. 3 Beach Road and built the Palm Court Wing, which was completed in 1894.
The Main Building of the hotel was designed by R. A. J. Bidwell of the architecture firm Swan & Maclaren and built on the site of the original Beach House. Completed in 1899, it was considered state-of-the-art at the time. Designed with tropical architectural features such as high ceilings and extensive verandahs, the Main Building also included modern conveniences like powered ceiling fans and electric lights, a first for any hotel in the region. The Dining Room, featuring pillars and a white Carrara marble floor, could seat up to 500 people. In 1904, the Bras Basah Wing, also designed by Bidwell, was added. The Palm Court was extended in 1910 and the Ballroom opened in 1920.
Unfortunately, with the onset of the Great Depression, the Sarkies brothers accumulated debts of S$3.5 million and by 1931 were declared bankrupt. However, the hotel survived and was incorporated in 1933 as Raffles Hotel Limited.
The war and post-war years
The 1942 Japanese invasion prompted Raffles staff to bury the hotel silverware, including the silver beef trolley, in the Palm Court. The Japanese renamed the hotel Syonan Ryokan or Light of the South Hotel, and its main entrance was moved to face east to catch the morning sun. The hotel was appointed the quarters for senior Japanese military officers.
After the Japanese surrender, M. S. Arathoon, whom the Japanese had retained as assistant manager, re-opened the hotel in September 1945. Many of the local staff had remained with the hotel during the war years, and other displaced staff returned. The silverware was duly retrieved from its hiding place. The hotel became a temporary transit camp for prisoners of war who were to be repatriated.
After the war, Raffles Hotel regained some of its former fame, remaining a colonial landmark that drew expatriates and foreign visitors. During the 1950s and 1960s, the hotel faced new challenges due to changing political, economic and social circumstances. With the withdrawal of the British colonial administration, the Singapore government actively promoted tourism to earn revenue. Raffles Hotel became a tourist attraction because of its reputation as a historic hotel and encountered competition from more modern hotels that had sprung up along Orchard Road. By the 1970s, some of the hotel’s former glory had faded and its buildings were in need of refurbishment.
Raffles Hotel was gazetted as a national monument on 4 March 1987. In 1989, the hotel closed for large-scale restoration that lasted two years and reopened on 16 September 1991. The S$160 million restoration was undertaken by Architects 61, with interiors by Bent Severin and Associates, based on the original building plans and old photographs. Taking 1915 as the benchmark year, the restoration process involved replacing the 1920s ballroom with the original cast-iron portico; repairing decorative plasterwork; and reinstating the large timber staircase. A new block was also added that housed an in-house museum, a shopping arcade, and the Jubilee Theatre, a reproduction of a nineteenth-century playhouse. The hotel was re-gazetted as a national monument on 3 June 1995.
Ownership and accolades
In 2003, Jennie Chua was appointed general manager of the hotel, the first Singaporean and woman to manage the hotel. Two years later, the hotel was sold to US investment fund Colony Capital. A subsequent merger with Fairmont Hotels and Resorts led to the creation of Fairmont Raffles Hotels International.
In April 2010, Raffles Hotel was acquired by Qatar Diar, the sovereign wealth fund of Qatar. The following month, Raffles Hotel received Ultratravel magazine’s prestigious Ultimate Luxury Travel Related Award for Best Hotel In Asia/Australia for the fourth consecutive year.
Guests and visitors
Over the years, Raffles Hotel has developed a long list of distinguished guests that includes members of royalty, political figures and celebrities such as King Faisal of Saudi Arabia, Indonesian President Suharto and entertainer Michael Jackson. The Writers Bar is named for the numerous literary figures that have visited the hotel, among others Joseph Conrad, Rudyard Kipling and Noel Coward. There are suites named after early hotel guests such as Charlie Chaplin and Somerset Maugham, who is reputed to have spent his days writing at the Palm Court.
In addition, the hotel has seen some more unusual visitors, including a python and a wild boar. In a well-known incident in 1902, early one morning an escaped circus tiger found its way under the hotel’s Billiard Room, which stood on stilts at the time. Charles Phillips, then principal of Raffles Institution and a member of Singapore’s rifle team, was summoned to the hotel, where, still dressed in his pyjamas, he shot and killed the tiger.
