Experience the charm of historic Panama City in our cozy cottage

Welcome to the Gwaltney Historical House Cottage, a quaint and comfortable guest house located in the heart of Panama City’s historic district. Our cottage is just 300 feet from the serene and beautiful Saint Andrew’s Bay, where you can enjoy the sound of the waves, the sight of the birds, and the feel of the sand. You can also stroll over to Beck Street or St Andrew's Bay Park at the OAKS, where you can findcharming shops, cafes, and restaurants.

We are located next to the bay and our cozy little town of St Andrews Bay, where locals walk along the pier, shop and window shop in our little town, a peaceful experience after coming back from the busy Gulf side. There is a park to walk your dogs or take the kids. Just a short drive to the Beaches and excitement.

Three massive 100-year-old OAKS adorn the property covered in Spanish Moss with Norman Rockwell vibes. Enjoy while you sit on the porch, the Beauty of our very own historic 9th Street and the most famous tropical gardens in Panama City right across the street. You won't find this beauty on any other street in Panama City,

Cozy, quaint, bay access just 50 yards away, claw foot tub, King bed, Queen fold-out, a comfy sofa, and recliners with full kitchen very welcoming. We have an outdoor shower in the summer and a pool. Lounge around in the front yard for people watching in our little town of St Andrew's where the locals ride their bikes, walk their dogs. Head to the farmers market at the end of 9th st for some good 'ol local flavor. We have fast WiFi, an assortment of channels Netflix, Prime, Paramount, Peacock, Discovery +, and more. Don't miss this one-of-a-kind historic district cottage.

Our cottage is fully equipped with everything you need for a relaxing and memorable stay. You’ll have your own private cottage seperate and away from the main home, parking space, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living area. You’ll also have access to our lovely garden, where you can relax and enjoy the fresh air. We are pet-friendly as well.

    This little blue cottage was so clean and cozy. The bed was amazingly comfortable and soft with the softest sheets and pillows. We had planned to get up early each day and stay out late but that bed had us in a choke hold. So much we looked up the sheets online. The area was beautiful and great location. We always felt safe. The neighbors yard across the street was so beautiful. The owners were so nice and accommodating. I cant recommend this place enough and plan on coming back soon.

    Cozy cottage in a great neighborhood. We were worried about that, but we were far enough away from the party area of Panama Beach. Historic Panama City is far better for families or people who don't want to be around rowdy college kids or young adults. The home across the street had this amazing garden, that you can walk on sidewalk, to see every detail. The home we rented was right next to kind and respectful owners. They had the pool in their back yard, which is available anytime you text, call or plan ahead. They have cute pups that just want to be part of your family, so they need to stay inside. We were still early in the season, to truly enjoy it. But my teen daughter didn't complain about the cold water. This place was so convenient of location. St. Andrews bay was literally a few homes away. We rented a boat close by as well. Shell Island was only 10 minute boat ride. Restaurants and gift shops were close by. Inside had everything you needed for when you were ready to get ready for bed. Huge comfy bed, lots of recliners, large TV, and lots of room in kitchen. We never ran out of hot water from the shower, that felt great with the pressure. The owners were available when we had questions, and suggestions. But they also were respectful if you wanted privacy. You choose. Also glad we got to help fellow military veteran small business. Hope to visit again. You won't regret renting and visiting.

    Finding the location was difficult as we typed in the address versus going to Vrbo and Clicking on directions.
