I agree 110%, caribe is the nicest thing going, it'll impress the mrs. for sure. Only problem is the price tag, that place will deflate yo wallet in a heartbeat. I think they have the coolest pools for the kids and one even has a lazy river.

The hot soccer moms are there in full force also........take dark glasses for ogleing!

Headed out to our condo in Panama City in the a.m. for 10 days. It's located at Bay Point and the marina is within a 200 yard walk. The annual billfish tournament started on Wednesday and runs through tomorrow and final weigh-ins will be shown live on CSS tomorrow (Sat.) night.

Our condo's are called Reflections and we are in the rental program. Can rent direct at 40% off rates to other MS Duckers. http://www.reflectionsatsterling.com
Spa, two Nicklaus golf courses, tennis,restaurants, bars, fishing...no reason to leave the property.

As I've stated many times lately, if you haven't seen PCB lately, you wouldn't believe it. All those run-down motels from the 60's are gone. It's condo's, homes, new restaurants and a new International Airport will be completed in 2011.

That's the best part! I'd rather be on the bay, the fishing is much better. You can take a spinning reel and some artificials and have a great time. Last summer, on the docks behind caribe, we wore the spanish mackeral out and caught a couple of reds too. At certain times the sheepshead are thick in there also.

I agree about rather being on the bay vs the beach. We've got the view of all views overlooking the Bay and the Gulf with the beach just a mile away. Additionally, we've got a 10,000 sq. foot pool without June Grass and jellyfish. Sure, love the beach and the roar of the waves, but don't need it everyday. Would rather have this with Specks and Reds out the back door.

I am lucky because I get to work down there every day and most of that is along the Gulf at the Condos. Tourism industry despite the gas prices has been very strong this year. I never get tred of it but love the Winter days when the sun is bright and high pressure has set in after the front. The water is flat and it sparkles for miles.

Carbie is very nice...been there several times...paying the bill is not for the faint at heart though.
