A Panama City Beach rental with a free 6-seater golf cart

Parking at the beach with a big group is nobody's idea of vacation. At Serenity Tides PCB, every stay comes with a 6-seater golf cart at no extra charge. Load it with the beach chairs, umbrella and cooler from the garage, and you're at Beach Access #12 in about three minutes. It's three blocks away, so you can also walk it in about six.

The house sits in a golf-cart-friendly neighborhood on the quiet East End of Panama City Beach, just off Thomas Drive. The cart is handy for more than the beach: ride over for seafood along Thomas Drive, or to the Grand Lagoon marinas for dolphin tours, jet skis and boat rentals. Drivers need a valid driver's license.

The garage is set up like a beach-gear shop. You'll find beach chairs, an umbrella, beach towels, beach bags, a cooler, a beach wagon and sand toys, all organized and ready. When you get back, there's an outdoor rinse station for sandy feet, a washer and dryer for towels, and a fenced backyard with glow mini golf and two fire pits for the evening.

Guests love it. One Vrbo guest wrote that "having a golf cart, beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels and wagon were perfect for our trip and was a selling point for choosing the location."
