Their attention to detail is second to none. They treat all their subcontractors with great respect which makes it a pleasure to work with. > Prestige Pavers of Bay County **Comment from Grand Floridian Builders, Inc.:** > Thanks for the review we enjoy working with you as well and hope to continue our great working relationship! **★★★★★ — darvogt, June 2016** > Grand Floridian built a cottage for us at Carillon Beach, they made the entire experience enjoyable and hassle free. We couldn't be happier with the process, and were thrilled with the final result. They are very knowledgable in all aspects of construction, and we highly recommend them. **Comment from Grand Floridian Builders, Inc.:** > Thank you so much Darvogt! We enjoyed working with you and your wife and we hope that you will have many years of beach memories in this house. Lisa and Shane Adams **★★★★★ — Zack Linn, June 2016** > Grand Floridian are true professionals! They are easy to work with and pay attention to the smaller details. The design elements they incorporate into their homes are unique and always come out looking great. The finished home looks like a HOME, not just another typical beach house. **★★★★★ — desertfoothills, May 2016** > We built a two story home in Carillon Beach using Grand Floridian Builders. They worked very hard with us to get a good price for the construction and still provide a high quality product. They let us use personal sources for some finishes and worked well with the providers. Shane's attention to detail makes his firm one of best to work with. He spotted issues that I never saw, and had them corrected quickly. I am very happy with the house they built and would recommend Grand Floridian Builders Inc. to anyone interested in building a house in Panama City Beach. **★★★★★ — Michael Bailey, May 2016** > Meticulous in detail and knowledgeable about all aspects of the building process. Easy to work with and great communication. Highly recommend for new construction or renovation. **★★★★★ — kandpmartin, April 2016** > Grand Floridian Builders built our house in Carillon Beach 20 years ago, and it still looks great. The house not only stood the test of time for design and style, but has also stood up against the harsh elements of the coastal environment. Shane and Lisa have always been available if we needed assistance with anything, and it's unusual for a builder to be around 20 years later to help the home owner. Shane builds a very solid house and was ahead of the times when using superior products to make the house last. > Mr. and Mrs. Martin **★★★★★ — fbright22, April 2016** > Grand Floridian Builders, Inc. receives the highest ranking of builders in my 20 years of real estate experience. They have built over 55 homes in the luxury resort community where I sell property as well as many other high end communities in the 30-A locale of South Walton County, FL.. Their homes retain their value and their excellence in craftsmanship is evident even in homes approaching 20 years of age. They are efficient, courteous, have the highest integrity, and their attention to detail is unmatched. I would recommend them without question. **★★★★★ — rebowers55, March 2016** > I highly recommend Shane Adams and his firm Grand Floridian for your residential construction needs. Shane managed our home construction in Carillon Beach from start to finish,... Coordinating the architectural drawings, making finish recommendations, and considering issues which my wife and I never anticipated. He required top quality work from all the subcontractors, provided complete and accurate cost estimates in advance of the service, delivered monthly cost to budget reports and only deliver pleasant surprises. We have built five homes in the past and this by far was the most professionally done. If you want the best service and, most importantly, the best ending result, my wife and I heartily recommend the Grand Floridian. > R & C Bowers ## Selected projects - [Shingle Oasis- Watersound Beach](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shingle-oasis-watersound-beach-pj-vj~1621511) - Location: Panama City, FL - Photos: 26 - Description: SQUARE FEET INTERIOR 4826 BEDROOMS 4 BATHROOMS 4 HOUSE TYPE Main House CONSTRUCTION METHOD Wood Frame EXTERIOR FEATURES Cedar Shake/Cedar Wood Siding SPECIAL FEATURES Fireplace, wrap around porch This three story wood frame cedar and shake sided, Martha Vineyards style home, fits perfectly in the community of WaterSound Beach.
