Breathe in the fresh ocean air and watch the waves roll in at this gulf-front condo on the 15th floor of Tidewater Beach Resort. Begin each morning outside on your balcony, grab a swimsuit from the private washer/dryer, and spend your days lounging on 600 feet of private white sand beach (with free seasonal beach service), swimming in the resort's indoor and outdoor pools, and relaxing in the hot tubs, arcade, and Roman spa. With Pier Park only three-quarters of a mile east, you'll be able to walk to over 100 stores, a variety of restaurants, a Grand IMAX movie theater, and the Panama City Beach Skywheel, among other sources of entertainment. Catch the summer concert series at the Aaron Bessant Amphitheater, drop a fishing line from the Russell-Fields Pier, and treat your kids to a day at Gulf World. The stunning shores of St. Andrews State Park are only 11 miles east as well. THINGS TO KNOW Reservations from March through October include beach service (two chairs and one umbrella).
