excellent car wash & exceptional staff! Towels are always available & vacuums work extremely well Thanks Take 5! Going to miss you when we go north read more

This is not a very good car wash. In my opinion, it is poorly managed and poorly maintained. Equipment is constantly breaking down, leaving customers without working vacuums or compressed air. My car frequently exits the wash full of soap. They advertise armor all for tires, but what they don't tell you is that it doesn't get sprayed on in the car wash. You need to apply it yourself. I was just there today and at least one of the vacuums has been missing for well over a month and again they have an entire section closed off for no apparent reason. The attendants seem apathetic and disinterested in helping the customers. There is one bright exception, a young fellow with a crew cut who works his tail off. I don't feel that the membership is a good value only because the quality of the car wash is so poor. It's definitely an example of you get what you pay for. It's a shame because when this car wash first opened it was very well managed and very well maintained. We were glad to have it. Seems like over time the Take Five people have abandoned this car wash, which is surprising given the fact that it is situated along a well traveled highway close to several highly coveted resorts in the area. read more

Take 5 Car Wash - They keep closing off this entire section for no apparent reason. I'm assuming it's so that the lazy employees don't have to maintain it. - Car Wash Near Me - Panama City Beach, Florida

See all

I've had good experiences at this car wash. They do a good job pre-washing the bugs from my car and they provide complimentary cloths and spray for detail cleaning. read more

I wish I could rate a negative 5 stars!! Friday when my wife had her car in the wash tunnel a hydraulic line busted and covered her suv. They tried to wash it by hand ...(oil and water) made a real mess. I have tired 5 times to reach the location and their Customer service. Nobody has returned the call or email. Had to spend 5 hours on Sunday trying to clean it up. I would not recommend this place to anyone,,, they have no integrity and care nothing about their customers. To add to the review....their response was to call the number that I have already left 5 messages on. My email is obtainable ,,, if they were truly concerned they would reach out to me on the cell number in one of my 5 messages instead of telling me to call a number that I have already tried 5 times. I will be filing a BBB complaint on Tuesday. read more

We evacuated to Panama City Beach for Hurricane Milton. Prior to leaving we went to get a quick car wash. Upon hearing about our situation, Take 5 car wash employees wouldn't accept any payment for a car wash. Small acts of kindness in tough situations really help brighten your day. Thank you for making our day. read more

They don't stand behind their work. Bad experience. Poor service and machinery is destructive to your vehicle.

Deangelo is kind and fast to help! Upgrades at wash are great! Amazing staff! Highly recommend. read more

Take 5 Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Panama City Beach, Florida

The car washes are awful... It leaves a lot of dirt behind. I have a monthly membership and Take 5 has been double charging my card for 6 months. Their website "cancel subscription," function doesn't work. I've sent multiple emails to try and get it cancelled but they don't respond. Stay away. Take 5 is expensive and your car will still be dirty. read more

Long line expected for a sunny day, but it moves quickly. We had driven all the way down from Wisconsin so the SUV was pretty dirty. We got a mid level priced wash and we're super happy!! Even had entertainment while we were waiting woth one of the employees fighting and then back talking a manager. Eventually he stopped, and it was quite entertaining. Would come again for the wash and maybe the show too!! read more

Me and my mom come here all the time. Amazing service and my car has never been cleaner! Love james so much!!!

Second time now the wash and tire shine does NOT clean your tires and rims- Staff needs to focus on car wash customers instead of focusing on there own toys. read more

best car wash i've ever had! Friendly staff, great prices, great wash! So helpful as well. Will definitely be coming back to take 5 to get my next wash when i visit! They have everything you need to clean the inside yourself all for free! Throughly impressed and best experience ever! read more

Awesome customer service! Always take my car here it's quick and easy every time and the vacuums are way better than all the other car washes in the area. read more

Today I gave this place another chance. New ownership and new management means they're back on top!! Ken, the manager, made sure I had whatever I needed and asked if there was any ideas on any equipment I thought would be helpful in the future. All the equipment is working now and I will be back weekly now. There's plenty of towels and cleaner stacked nearly. yay!! read more

Staff is very laid back and accommodating. They have great vacuum setups and complimentary spray cleaner for your interior. I don't get car washes very often, but the quality of the wash seemed fine. The reason I am writing this review is because I was very impressed by the customer service. I will be back! read more

For what it is, this place gets your car pretty damn clean. And the vacuums are crazy strong, to pull every last grain of beach sand that's trying to mate with your carpet out of your car. We've been through here twice, once with our own car that was struggling under the weight of NW FL pollen, and once with a rental car that we accidentally ran down some orange-mud-covered back roads in Wausau. That car was so orange, you couldn't tell it used to be black, and the undercarriage was orange too. This place got it so clean, I wasn't ashamed to turn it back in to Enterprise. So why not 4 stars? Closing at 6pm is kinda nuts on weekdays when traffic is murder and many people get off at 5 or 5:30. Not everyone wants to do chores like this on a weekend. Can't have one weekday where you're open till 7 or 8pm? read more

We come here every year after out trip down to PCB. We always have bugs smashed everywhere. They prewash -with soap and real people. Our car always looks great. We recommend highly read more

I've been a member over two years. The original company I signed up with had excellent workers who brushed the front and rear of the car before it went through the car wash. They were always friendly, courteous and smiled usually. I always tip them because of the way they were. And you left there feeling like you had a good experience. Now this company take five is charging a couple dollars more a month that my original membership at 1999 and the employees if there's one at the beginning of the car wash when you drive up act like they really don't care and they barely brush your car if they do but most of the time they don't. I go through once or twice a week and have been but it's definitely changed since it became this company. When the new car wash opens down the street, I'll probably go there but I need to make sure that they're not affiliated with this one. After reading the other reviews, I know I'm not alone and I've called this place. No one answered the phone. I know it's gonna be a pain to discontinue this membership but I'll try and if they don't answer, I'll call credit card company and tell him to take it off my charge and do not let this company charge me again. I hate to complain, but I am the customer. I do pay my membership and they are not giving the service that we signed up for. read more

A month after I visited this location while on VACATION, I received a mystery $53.98 charge. When I called to inquire, the GENERAL MANAGER said he was unable to speak and that he would call me back in 30 minutes. I waited the 30 minutes that he said he would call back and he did not. I waited an hour before I began to call him back. Then 2 hours, then 3 hours, then 4 hours. I have now called over 20 times and it is obvious they are dodging my calls for fraudulent activity. I HAVE BEEN CALLING FOR TWO DAYS!!! I will be getting the police involved. Don't waste your time or money at this location. Vacuums weren't turned on, floor mat cleaners were disgusting and not maintained, towels were unavailable, the wash itself was subpar, and my $25 transaction turned into a $75+ headache. read more

I used to love coming to this location. After the last few times I'll be finding a new one. The old company had excellent customer service and they would wash the front and back of your vehicle as a courtesy. Tonight while I was there, the child that was working barley got me in the tire tracks, didn't even pre rinse and while I was detailing my car, one of his friends came by in a truck and revved his engine so loud and obnoxious that it popped and sounded like a gun went off and then proceeded to spin his tires and do a few spin-outs......all while his buddy who was on the clock yelled and took video. If I were a manager here I would have sent his butt home and told him not to come back ever read more

I've had my membership for a few months now, and each experience has been smooth. I haven't had any issues, and team member Deangelo stopped and helped me with shining the tires before moving on to check on other customers, which was really nice. Thanks again. Keep up the good work guys. read more

When this first opened it was awesome. I feel like there must be new ownership. There use to be 2 ppl when you came thru. One on each side of your vehicle with a brush. Now there's only one and they barely touch your car. The wash itself doesn't get a good rinse either. Disappointing read more

I used to really like this car wash but it has gone down hill. Today the attendants were on the phone instead of having the clean rags ready. Every single bin was empty. There are a lot of choices here for car wash I will be going elsewhere. read more

I'm not sure what happened to this place in the last year, but it has definitely changed. I had a membership here and it was what I once considered to be one of the best car washes I've ever been to. Fast forward a year. I moved and just happened to be in the area and needed a wash and vacuum, so decided to stop. Mistake! The two very young employees didn't even scrub the front of my car, and barely swept down the sides, despite the fact that no one was behind me and there was no rush. The wash didn't clean. There were still spots of dirt, bugs on the front, lots of dirt under despite paying for what I thought would wash that, and soap left all over the back. So I park, thinking I'll wipe some of it off. Nope. No towels, and was told they won't have any until FEBRUARY (today is January 10!) My advice, drive the few miles to the other place I recently reviewed. No, I'm not being compensated. But if you're going to have to bring your own supplies and do most of the work yourself, you might as well do it at home, or go someplace else. read more

Was really good at first but took a bad turn in the last year. No towels, vacuums only work sometimes and the air is sporadic. Car wash itself is hit or miss. Not very well managed at all. I canceled my membership and went to a different car wash at a better rate and service. read more

BEWARE: We were visiting the area and drove through this car wash. Somehow I was enrolled in a monthly plan, unbeknownst to me. After a few months I noticed the charge on my account. They only refunded 1 month (they had charged 5 months). This is despite the monthly subscription never having been used and me offering to prove that I live out of state. I believe I was placed on a monthly plan intentionally and this is a way for them to generate revenue. read more

Good car wash. They have a guy there who gives the front and back of your vehicle a light scrub before entering the wash. The wash uses foam brushes to clean your vehicle. Wash prices range from ($6?) up to $16. I purchased the $12 wash. My Ford F250 came out looking pretty good. Not sure if it was worth $12 though. The dryer did not do a very good job at getting the water off, however, that seems to be the case with all drive through car washes. After you exit the wash you can vacuum your vehicle for free. I'd probably go back again if I am near there and need my vehicle washed, but I'd likely just go for the $9 wash next time. Not sure I got $12 worth of clean. read more

Absolutely the best!!! It will be the only place I get my car washed... Staff member Madusta polite and professional!!! I totally recommend

I would give this car wash a 5 star for it's cleaning but was disappointed that it broke my Rear tail gate window wiper arm. When I came out of the car wash the arm was down below the window. In the past when I use this they always tape me the wiper arm to the back of the window, this time they did not. I know that the sign says they are not responsible for damage but I was disappointed that they stopped taping to prevent such things from happening. This was an expensive car wash read more

Got stuck in the car wash. Which in itself wouldn't warrant a two-star. It was the lack of action or concern from the employee that earned this review. I honked and waited a few times over the span of a few minutes. When nobody came and nothing was happening, I put my car in drive and came through. When I parked, I told one of the attendants what happened and that I had honked several times. I asked him if the system notifies them of a car being stuck since they couldn't hear my horn. I also asked if it would be possible to go back through since it stopped with all the suds on my car. The employee started off not by apologizing for my experience, but by telling me I had an attitude. Then went on to say "what you meant to say was..." and corrected how I should have reported the issue. He mistook my anxiety for anger and completely mishandled the situation. Incredibly rude and very poor customer service. They did let me go through again, I'd like to add. No issue with the actual service. Just the one guy working. read more

They have been drafting fees out of my account fraudulently! I did not sign up for a membership and my card has been used 3 times! Why would I get a membership there when I live 14 hours away?!?! Do not do business with these people! read more

Stopped by the other day. Selected the $15 option. The car had a lot of road grime and salt from the trip down to Florida. Car came out looking great. I was very pleased. read more

I have been going here for about a year now, great service every time!! Vacuums never jammed, wash is always great! Only thing I don't like is the tape they put on your rear windshield wiper if you drive a SUV. read more

Chose $10 automatic wash. Attendant scrubbed the Alabama bug guts off our front bumper and windshield and even taped the wiper down in the back. Car looks nice and clean now. read more

I am a snowbird arriving every January and this car wash is my first destination. I have tried others but this one is the best bang for the buck. They have 2 guys at the entrance presoaking the vehicle and removing bugs etc... from the front. I love the air line and strong vacuum.nobody rushes you out of the drying bay so I drive away squeaky clean. Won't go anywhere else during my visit. read more

Always happy with this car wash! Friendly service, great pricing and a pleasant experience every time.

The car wash is overpriced, but worth it if you get the monthly pass. Though, the dryers don't normally dry the car fully.

My husband and I have been going to this car wash exclusively for 4-5 years. It is the best I've ever seen! It is very inexpensive, attendants gives a brush to the front and back of the vehicle, windshield and back window, side mirrors. When we travel and get smeared with love bugs, its the only car wash we've found that gets them completely off with one wash. Attendant has a tip jar out there and we always make sure we tip him because he doesn't "have" to give that extra touch, but he does. It has NEVER scratched or damaged our large vehicles, ever! My husband has a full-size pick up truck and I have a large SUV. We travel a good distance just to go to this car wash! I don't know why this says I live in San francisco, but I live in PC Beach. read more

Took my truck thru. Did a nice job. Left a few places on the grill , otherwise a 5 star experience. Cleaned wheels and shined up tires. I would for sure recommend this for anyone. read more

Stopped here to clean off my 2014 dodge ram 1500 truck. Soft brush wash right? Too bad when I screwed in my Antena after the wash I noticed my whole hood was scratched up. Pulled around to the vacuum and the same make and model truck who was cleaning the inside of his ride had the same scratches on his hood in the SAME spots. Spoke to jason and he tried to argue with me saying his machines did not do it. There is no way it could of happened. Neglected to admit the scratches on the other guys vehicle. I've documented throughly both of our trucks. Corporate will be hearing from me. Buyer beware read more
