Tidewater Beach Resort

Panama City, Florida

The hotel

If you’re heading for Florida’s fabulous Panhandle, it’s probably for the beaches — so a spot right on the sands of Panama City Beach is pretty hard to rival. Along one of the biggest private beaches (said to cover more than two football fields of sand), this high-rise shoots up from the shoreline to give you the best in beachfront apartment living. Each of the private condos inside is unique, but they all share a collection of handy holiday extras — including two beachfront lagoon pools, an indoor pool, a fitness centre, a games room, and a handful of hot tubs. There’s space in your condo to cook, dine, and lounge about, but you’re also a stroll from Pier Park’s shops and restaurants if you fancy forgoing the washing up and dining out.

We first vacationed at Tidewater in 2015 and then again in 2016, each time in unit 2217. Late summer is a great time to visit PCB - no crowds and beautiful weather!

We first vacationed at Tidewater in 2015 and then again in 2016, each time in unit 2217. Late summer is a great time to visit PCB - no crowds and beautiful weather! This is our third year here and it is absolutely the best condo we’ve ever rented! #2817 is also an end unit, beautifully decorated with breathtaking views of the Gulf. The end units have these large wraparound decks which offers commanding views of the beach. The condo amenities are very nice - two large pools; onsite bar and grill, and many activities for kids. The property is very well-maintained. We simply enjoy relaxing and gazing at the emerald green and turquoise water. Pier Park is nearby which offers many dining and shopping options. This is the only place I’d ever stay at PCB. How can you not fall in love with this beautiful place? Read less

Booked through Air bnb initially I didn’t want a high rise bc I was worried about he kids in the balcony but this place provided a comfortable stay for 7 days. A little under stocked in the kitchen, could do with pizza tray and cutter , can opener , and and pepper. It was a little dated and there were cosmetic areas that needed seeing to and master bed was very squeaky. Just turning over was annoying let alone anything else!! The bed tended to dip in the middle. Kids bunk beds with tv was great however could only get net flix there and no where else in the condo. DVD didn’t work in living room and we were banking on stuff like that being a large family of 7 . The space was beautiful and views from the balcony breathtaking. The elevators can take little while. I recommend in check out day packing up the car the day before. We had a great stay here. Read less

This was our second stay here. The condo we stayed in this year was comfortable and roomy. Very clean and the view was amazing.

The elevator was very fast but during busy times you had to wait but that’s expected in a building of this size. The Spa wasn’t working but the pools are very nice. The Waves restaurant service was extremely slow the day we ate there but the food was ok, but $10.00 for a salad was pricey. Overall it’s a great place to stay and close to Pier Park Read less

This place has a fantastic location and is very well maintained. We live in Miami and this is our “home away from home” We will be back for sure. We could not believe how good the price was, can’t wait for next trip
