Emerald Coast Vacation Rentals Manager Panhandle Getaways Lands Spot on Rentals United's 2026 Top 50
Panama City Beach, United States - August 13, 2026 / Panhandle Getaways /
PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla., July 23, 2026. Panhandle Getaways has been named to Rentals United's 2026 World's Top 50 Property Managers list, placing the Emerald Coast-based company among the largest and most influential vacation rental operators worldwide. The annual ranking, compiled by channel management platform Rentals United, recognizes property managers based primarily on the scale and standard of the portfolios they oversee across global markets.
Panhandle Getaways secured its position on the list with a portfolio of more than 900 Emerald Coast vacation rentals and over 30 years of experience managing properties along Florida's Gulf Coast - a combination of large-scale inventory and established regional presence that distinguishes the company within the broader vacation rental industry.
"Being named to the Rentals United Top 50 is a meaningful recognition of what our team has built over more than three decades on the Emerald Coast," said Ashley Marcum of Panhandle Getaways. "We manage over 900 properties with local offices and local people, and we help every guest find the right stretch of coast for the vacation they have in mind, backed by pricing and booking tools that work for homeowners and guests alike."
A Regional Property Manager on a Global List
Rentals United's Top 50 identifies property managers that demonstrate consistent performance, portfolio scale, and operational standards across their respective markets. The 2026 list places Panhandle Getaways alongside operators managing tens of thousands of properties across dozens of countries and major tourism destinations.
The inclusion is notable for a company whose foundation is firmly regional. Through more than 30 years of Florida property management along the Emerald Coast, Panhandle Getaways has developed a detailed familiarity with the local market - one that shapes how the company approaches pricing, guest services, and homeowner relationships. That regional depth, combined with a portfolio exceeding 900 properties, forms the basis for the ranking.
Tools and Services for Guests and Homeowners
For property owners, Panhandle Getaways applies dynamic pricing that adjusts rates in response to market conditions, seasonal demand, and comparable inventory, supported by professional marketing across major booking platforms and direct channels. The company maintains local offices along the Emerald Coast, providing on-site oversight rather than remote-only management - a distinction that carries practical weight in a coastal market where response times and on-the-ground knowledge directly affect guest experience.
Guests can search Panhandle Getaways' inventory across the region's distinct destinations. The company manages homes along 30A's upscale beach communities, in Destin with its white-sand beaches and boating access, across the family- and group-oriented options in Panama City Beach, and throughout the quieter stretches of the Forgotten Coast. That geographic range allows travelers to match a property to a specific type of trip - whether a walkable luxury enclave, an active family week, or a slower coastal stay.
The company's Pay Your Way program gives travelers the option to secure a property with as little as 20 percent down and pay the remaining balance closer to the arrival date, providing added flexibility for families and groups during the planning process.
Continued Growth Across the Emerald Coast
The recognition comes as Panhandle Getaways continues to expand its footprint. Its portfolio of 900+ properties spans homes, condominiums, and beachfront units across the Florida Panhandle - one of the Gulf Coast's most active vacation corridors - ranging from gulf-front condos to larger multi-bedroom homes suited for extended family travel.
