You will then take the elevator to the 8th floor to our luxury unit. If you have a second vehicle, it will be parked across the street in the Calypso North garage. Entry to garage is by pre-printed pass with barcode. The crossover from the garage to the resort is on the third floor. You will proceed directly to our unit, by-passing all the lines for the elevators and condo offices. You will then enter a private key code to unlock the door and enter. You DO NOT have to go to a lobby to "check in" or to a different location to "get your keys".

You do not have to pay any additional fee for use of our private parking space in the Calypso Owners Garage (beach side).

Family Spring Break

Family has stayed at Calypso Resort several times and this unit was the best! Very beautiful & comfortable unit for entire family! Beds were amazing to sleep on! Bath towels large and very plush! Private parking spot was a real treat! Easy in & out of the resort. Would have liked a few more dish towels. Only had one in unit. Our family liked to cook a lot so maybe only a slight issue with us. Penny was extremely easy to work with! Will definitely be renting this space again!

Great place!

The condo was very nice. Rooms were large and it was great to have 3 full bathrooms. It was nicely decorated and furnished with newer appliances and furniture. (Best outdoor furniture on the balcony i've had yet)My daughter loved the window seats! Penny was great and very much made herself available for questions if they arose. I would stay again 💯. You get what you pay for with this one.

Watching sunsets in the Sunset Condo ...

The condo was beautifully decorated, super clean and was a perfect fit for our group. We have stayed at Calypso several times and by far this is one of our favorite units. The propery itself is an idea location to so many restaurants and activites. The grounds are immaculate and the large, comfy corner units offer the best views of the beach, pools, pier and of course those gorgeous PCB sunsets. Penny, the unit owner, was so pleasant to work with so I highly recommend staying here. We made some great memories on this family vacation thanks to her and the beautiful Calypso Resort.

Best Condo

This condo is what anyone should be looking for. Penny made everything super easy and everything was known 2 days before we left for our trip. The condo has a beautiful view and is close to anything you need. We had no issues at all and it was also super clean. We will definitely stay here again in the future!!

Great choice close to Pier Park

Stayed in this unit for a week in July. Loved how easy it is to walk to Pier Park for dinner. Didn't have to load up everyone to drive 30 minutes (traffic) and then back to the condo. Walmart is 2 minutes away so it made for quick trips to restock on groceries. Finding a unit with 3 master suits can be difficult! Beautiful views as it's a corner unit. Needed to call Mrs. Penny a couple of times and she was quick to answer even late at night. Very enjoyable week and would 1000% recommend

We really enjoyed our stay at the Calypso. Penny was absolutely fantastic and communicated along the way and answered any questions we had. Knowing we had her to work with versus a company made our vacation that much better. Her condo was absolutely gorgeous inside, views of the beach and strip were breathtaking and the ease to shops and restaurants was unmatched. This is definitely a place we would stay at again.

Best of the Best

West end corner units at Calypso are already hard to beat but after our 10th trip to Calypso, we thought this one was the best. Very clean and you can tell how much the owners want you to be satisfied and enjoy your experience.

Excellent unit with great location!

The unit was perfect! Great for our family. We could all enjoy family time and have personal space as well. The kitchen had everything we needed. Having the parking right under the building was fantastic and the daily beach chairs is a must! We loved he location and walked to Pier Park daily. Thank you for a great graduation vacation!

Perfection

We have been coming to PCB several times a year for years now. We always stay at Calyspo but this was the first time to stay in this unit. We absolutely loved this condo. It was so clean and equipped with everything we needed. We loved the tv’s and the simplicity of using them. We loved the 3 King size beds since we had our 2 adult children with us and they each had their own bathroom. The private parking space under the condo was so convenient! The beach chairs that came with the unit was a big plus, also. We will definitely be staying in this unit again. It was perfect in every way. Penny was great to work with and very responsive to any questions I had.

Condo is wonderful & owners are very sweet!

We loved this condo & the owner was very sweet and responsive. This is an end unit, so we had fantastic views of the beach & ocean from 2 sides. Very clean and nicely furnished. Plenty of games for the kids to keep them entertained (Legos, cards, Connect4, Skipbo). There are 2 pools at the resort, but there are security patrols that will absolutely not let you have any drinks in the pool (even just water in a plastic bottle), and they don't allow any balls. We observed one of the security employees who was extremely rude to the guests. We thought the rule was silly, especially given that they have a tiki hut selling drinks not 25 feet away. For families with little kids, just be aware that we could smell weed almost every time we stepped out on the beach or balcony. This is not a reflection of the condo owners as their property was wonderful, spacious, and clean. But I'm not sure we'll return only because of the resort itself. We appreciate the owners & their hospitality!

About the host

Hosted by Penny Lancaster

Host profile image
"The Sunset at Calypso" is owned by Timeout PCB, LLC and was purchased in April of 2020 and remodeled in December of 2020. Timeout PCB also owns two other trophy condos at Calypso: "The Shoreline at Calypso" (3rd floor corner) and "The Sandcastle at Calypso" (2nd floor center). If the Sunset (three king suites) is not large enough for you, check out these other two units.

Timeout PCB is a family owned and operated entity. We manage our properties personally and we do not manage properties for others. My name is Penny Lancaster and I'm a retired school teacher and real estate broker. My husband is a community banker. We vacation in our own units and take pride in their quality and appearance. We want you to have a great experience in one of our condos!

Why they chose this property

Why Calypso? That's easy. Calypso is the closest resort to Pier Park and the famous Russell Fields City Pier (only 300 steps on the sidewalk). They are across the street from each other and are a quick 4 minute walk from Calypso. Leave your car in the garage and avoid the traffic. Pier Park is the heartbeat of PCB and houses the area's best restaurants and shopping - there is even a huge 16 screen movie theater. Many guests spend their entire trip between the beach, the pier and Pier Park. Time is precious - don't spend it in traffic!

If you're flying to PCB, it's also worth noting that Calypso is about 15 miles from the airport (ECP) making an Uber ride very convenient and inexpensive.

Why "The Sunset at Calypso?" First, it is very hard to find a unit with 3 king suites - anywhere. Secondly, the western facing corner unit at mid level height. Simply put, if you ever stay in this unit - you will be back! The sensational sunsets, the unobstructed long beach views. It's simply more than can be described.

What makes this property unique

No structures to the west of this unit as it is the public beach! Views for miles! Proximity to the pier and Pier Park and Russell Fields Pier - lots to do! Free Beach Service and VIP Parking. King beds and dedicated baths in each suite - no tiny bunk rooms or single beds in this place!
