Luke Brannon
Owner
About Me
Hi, I鈥檓 Luke Brannon, Owner and President of Grand Welcome Panama City Beach. After 15 successful years in the television and technology industries, I decided to leverage my business leadership experience and turn my passion for travel, hospitality, systems, and technology into a full-time venture.
As a Southern boy, the Gulf Coast was a frequent vacation destination for me and my family, and we created so many great memories here over the years. My wife, Laura, and I continued this tradition while dating, and I popped the question right here on the sands of the Emerald Coast.
We now call this area home, and I get to spend my days helping property owners maximize the potential of their vacation and investment homes.
Laura supports our community as a teacher and lends her eye for detail to creating a high-end guest experience.
What We聽Love About Panama City Beach
We love the simple pleasures like walking the beautiful coastline, taking in the sun, or swimming in the crystal clear emerald water. If you don鈥檛 find us at the beach, we are probably eating one of our favorite PCB meals like the classic Grouper Picatta at The Grand Marlin or a bit more laid back with a super-fresh grouper sandwich at Schooners.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does property management cost in Panama City Beach?
The typical fee for short term rental property management in Panama City Beach can range from 10-25% depending on partial or full-service management. As an example, larger national chains usually offer partial management at a reduced fee, which requires more effort on your part coordinating with cleaning crews, restocking supplies, changing linens, maintenance, etc. We are a local, full-service management company that takes care of EVERYTHING for you. We're happy to work with you and customize a management solution that aligns with your goals.
Are short term rentals allowed in Panama City Beach Florida?
Yes, however, there are a couple rules to be aware of. If you're planning to host guests for less than 181 nights in Panama City Beach, the city requires you to register your short-term rental. You then need to apply for a short-term rental license and have a business tax receipt (BTR). Lastly, you need to add your license number to your listing or Airbnb, Vrbo or any of the top booking sites. To take the headache out of managing your own vacation rental, you can partner with us and we will take care of everything for you.
What is the short-term rental tax in Panama City Beach?
In October 2022, Panama City commissioners approved an ordinance to lump short term rentals into the city's existing 1%聽business tax. However, there are other local and state taxes to be aware of. To simplify things, we can remit monthly tourism taxes on your behalf and issue you a 1099 at the end of the year. If you have any tax questions related to short term rentals in Panama City Beach, feel free to contact us. We'd be happy to help!
