About this property

NewDirectly on Beach-Walk to Pier Park, Free WiFi

Tidewater Beach Resort includes THE BEST amenities on the beach. The all inclusive amenities include 2 outdoor pools, 1 indoor pool, 2 hot tubs, 2 Roman spas, saunas and steam rooms, 4300 sq ft fitness center, internet cafe, free WiFi, movie theater, game rooms, snack bar, on-site restaurant and bar, tiki bar, gift shop, beach toys, covered/gated parking, 7 elevators and 24/7 security.

Tidewater is located on 636 feet of beautiful white sugary sand and one of the most desirable beaches in the world. On site beach toys are available for additional fees including para sailing, kayaks, jet skis, paddle boards, banana boats and water bikes.

Our condo is gulf front with beautiful gulf views from the kitchen, living room and balcony. The many upgrades include granite counter tops, nine-foot ceilings, crown molding, all tile floors, smart TV's, free WiFi and 3 full bathrooms. The condo comfortably sleeps 8.

Did we mention LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION...what more could you ask for? We are literally 1/2 mile from Pier Park with 20+ restaurants and over 100 specialty stores, the 16 screen Grand Theater with an IMAX, and many more restaurants and shops opening daily. The all new Miracle Mile Amusement Park is next to Pier Park. The Russell Pier is directly across the street from Pier Park where you can fish off the pier and also where the fireworks go off on the 4th of July, New Year's, and many other times throughout the year. You literally can relax on the balcony and have a great view of the fireworks display.

Tidewater is only a 10 minute drive from the new International Airport and Frank Brown Park where many sporting events are held. If you are coming to Panama City Beach for sporting events, you can't stay much closer than this! With all of the amenities and the location, there is no other place to stay at the beach!

The condo was fabulous, the owners are great.

The condo was fully furnished and the decor fits the beach theme. The only downside with the resort was the elevators was slow. Overall our vacation was great, wish we could have stay longer.

Amazing Beach Condo

My family and i rented this condo for spring break, myself, husband and 2 teenage daughters and 1 of their friend. It was perfect!, The girls could walk to pier park, it wasn't to crazy or rowdy. The fact that there are beach chairs are a MAJOR PLUS!!! The condo was beautifully decorated. It had everything you needed in the kitchen, they view was awesome. All around I would recommend it! We will be staying here again.

Fantastic!

Beautiful condo, had everything we needed and more. Washer and dryer were so nice to have. Very clean. Carolyn is a pleasure to work with and always responds to texts / emails quickly. We had no trouble with elevators, never waited longer than 2-3 minutes for one. Beautiful views, clean condo, safe location for my kids. Thanks for such a wonderful stay! We will be back !

A perfect family vacation

The property was very impressive. Decorated beautifully, clean, fully stocked with everything we needed, convenient to the beach, shopping etc. The beds were very comfortable. We couldn't have wanted anything better. It was perfect!! We really enjoyed both of the pools at Tidewater and spent a lot of time there. They were big, clean and lots of seating. We also enjoyed the DJ that they supplied for a couple of hours in the afternoon. The elevators were a little aggravating from time to time but that's to be expected at such a large facility. We enjoyed the two free beach chair rentals however it would have been nice if the condo would have been stocked with a few more for other family members to enjoy. It was all around a wonderful vacation and if we ever visit Panama City Beach again we will definitely stay at this property again.

Beautiful condo overlooking a beautiful beach...what more could you ask for?

This was my family's first trip to Panama City Bach, or the Florida panhandle. We had heard about the beautiful beaches and couldn't wait to take this family vacation! The condo was perfect for us- we had 7 people in our group- 4 adults, 1 teenager and 2 kids, and the sleeping arrangement worked out exactly right. Our teenager snagged the fold out couch while the 2 boys used the bunk beds and everyone was happy. We never felt cramped or on top of each other, and more importantly we never turned on the T.V.! We played board games (courtesy of the room!), cards, made meals together, sat and talked on the patio overlooking the back, and spent many hours digging holes and building sand castles on the beach. t was a true vacation. We went a couple of times to Pier Park, and window shopped, which was a nice break in the evening before dinner. We tried to catch every single sunset we could! The weather wasn't completely cooperative, but during the few little rain spells, we adventured around the condo building (played in the arcade once, swam in the indoor pool once, and went up to the top floor to watch the rain). The condo is pristinely maintained. The appliances were all clean (this is a big one for me!), and the only cleaning we had to do was when we tracked in tons of sand! It was nice having the washer and dryer unit for keeping swimsuits and beach towels fresh. The beds were comfortable, clean and inviting for extra naps that we usually don't get to take. :) The one downfall is the elevators. I'm sure everyone who visits this property mentions the long wait for an elevator, and we were no exception. Sometimes we would get one right away, other times we would wait 5, 10, even 15 minutes. The good news is that the single elevator at the other end of the walkway is less used, so we started using that one more frequently towards the end of our stay with better luck. :) Carolyn and Richard were great hosts! We got all we wanted and more form this vacation, and can't wait to go back!

Awesome vacation!!

We enjoyed our wonderful vacation in this beautiful beach condo! We loved the beach feel and how clean it was and the view is amazing! The elevators weren’t as bad as what everyone says and the property was very clean! The restaurant at the condo was great and everyone was very friendly. We were close to everything and could even walk to pier park. We watched dolphins, manitees, turtles, fish from the balcony. The owners were super awesome and the condo had absolutely everything!

Great time!!!

A lot of first for us on this trip.....mandatory hurricane evacuation, red tide, dolphin encounters, first place metals in a 5k, sunsets on the beach.....the list goes on. Even though nature didn't cooperate for the whole trip, our family and friends had a great time. Carolyn was great to work with. She kept us informed about the red tide situation and the hurricane. Thank you!

Great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay in room 1621!! The only thing that we didn't like was how long the elevator took to get to our floor. I know that's just part of staying in a big condo but it was just hard when you have kids anxiously waiting. Once the workers got on the elevator to help regulate it, it was a lot better. The condo room was super clean, and accommodated two families with children VERY well. They LOVED the bunk beds & all of us having our own shower was SO nice!! It took no time to get ready to go out to eat! The owners gave very detailed instructions on how to the check in, how to park, etc. They communicated with us & that was a huge help. They were so pleasant to deal with! I am thankful our first visit was so lovely!!!

A Fabulous experience. Highly recommend these folks.

We had an odd schedule as compared with the normal duration of most stays. The Frashers worked with us and helped make our trip possible. The condo was immaculate and the property as a whole was just what/where we needed it. The onsite beach toys were very beneficial for our grand kids, Thank you, Richard and Carolyn. I am glad that we stumbled across this listing. I believe that you will be too. David And Linda Whitson.

Loved our room and the people we rented from was fabulous! The resort was way to large

Did not like waiting on the elevators for ever and the beach chair situation is horrible. Needs to come up with a better solution for that.

Love this condo! Home away from home.

We loved staying in this condo. Everything you need is here. We had a great time making memories with family and friends. Perfect getaway place for eight people. Plenty of space for all. We would definitely rent this condo again and I would highly recommend it to friends. Richard and Carolyn are great to work with and they want it to be just as perfect for guest as they do for themselves. Thanks for sharing your little piece of heaven with us!

Wonderful experience.

Mr. & Mrs. Frasher are wonderful people to lease a condo from. They made our overall experience so easy and accommodating that we could not ask for more. Thank you both for all the extras you did to make our overall trip a success. The condo was more than we could have asked for. The views were just wonderful as well. Once again thank you for making our trip relaxing and successful. Blessings on you both.

Great location

Had a great week here. Positives great location beautiful view and never ran out of hot water! Cons the place was dirty animal hair in bathmats etc and were visibly dirty. Way too many nick knacks taking over too much counter space. Also be prepared to wait for the elevators. It seemed like people had all kinds of ways to get the elevators to bypass floors. Wait times as long as 30 mins. Also internet was spotty. We rented this place to be on the beach and to be able to cook our meals. The kitchen was fine except very few storage containers with lids. We were here as an extended family and had a blast.

The condo was "Exception" and view was awesome !!!

The look & feel of the condo was a real "beach theme" with ALL the comforts of home. We enjoyed the view from the 16th floor every morning with the spacious deck. Beds were comfortable and the rooms were perfect in size. Love the pools & of course the beach was beautiful !! Café in condo was an added convenience and the shop/restaurants closer than we thought. A+ on everything that Carol could do, D on the fact the elevators were ALWAYS SLOW...
