Family trip

Room was as described and nice but I will never stay at the Tidewater again. The elevators are awful, we waited almost and hour for an elevator several times during our week long stay and several of the elevators were out of service.

Kitchen and elevators

I had to buy pans in order to even fix scrambled eggs and biscuits for breakfast. Plenty of plates, but nothing to cook with. And spent half of my time on vacation waiting for elevators.

We had a great time!

Overall the property was clean in the sense of housekeeping. You could tell the floors were just replaced in the unit, which were great, however, the baseboards and trim were heavily scraped and unfinished. The refrigerator had multiple broken shelves in both the fridge and freezer. When we arrived to the unit the freezer had been left open which caused to wait almost 12-14 hours for it to reach freezing temperatures again. The kitchen was also poorly equipped in regardless to cooking pans. We ended up having to buy a couple pans that would be needed to make meals for 10 people that the unit advertises as the max. Overall the condo is in a great location, and this won't be another review complaining about the elevators. When you consider the size of the building and how busy the summer months are we were not too shocked. The problem with the elevators we found were people would hit the button to go up/down on multiple floors and then leave. This left the elevators making multiple unneeded stops which caused them to be slower. Ultimately we enjoyed our time here, I just wouldn't say it was worth the price we incurred for the unit.

Great for large group but needs updating.

The space was perfect- but the furniture needs to be updated. The brackets holding the kitchen counter were taped over. Lots of scratches and scuffs throughout. Our bunch didn’t mind much because there was ample space for our group of 9. The ladies at the check in counter were awesome. The rest of the resort was a bit of a let down. Starbucks was not your usual Starbucks, the bar and grill closed at 9, and the food was kind of gross (although our bartender was great). Never did figure out the “free amenities,” offered by Panhandle Getaways. I was given a phone number to call but they don’t open until 9am - so that was a disappointment.

Family vacation

The condo was in worn down condition. The refrigerator was really bad with broken shelves and a broken icemaker. When we got there the couch bed would not fold into the couch, and I had to call the management company because we would not have had a comfortable place to sit. There were nicks in most of the baseboards, and it looks like they had not done any work to the place in a while. The beds were comfortable. The linens and towels were nice. I’m sure if you read any reviews of Tidewater you will see that the elevators are a source of contention as people have waited up to an hour for an elevator. The pools were boring and the outside hot tub was disgusting as it looks like the little kids were in there and used it as a toilet. The beach access was convenient and the beach was nice. In my opinion, we over paid for this property and could have stayed at a nicer place. it was very inconvenient that there was road construction taking place because we like to walk to different places rather than having to move our vehicle and pier park is within walking distance. obviously not the condo owners responsibility or fault.

The stay was amazing. We love Tidewater Resort. The only complaint I have is 10 days before our stay Panhandle Getaways contacted me stating our original condo that we booked had to have some tile work done so they needed to switch us condos. We confirmed that was ok and didn’t hear anything back from them and also never received our confirmation email with all the codes needed. I had to contact them and was told that we didn’t confirm our stay. Eventually after speaking with 4 different people they finally got things in order and sent us the info we needed. The condo itself isn’t bad but the lack of communication between renters and Panhandle employees could be better along with communication between employees. Had I not got back in touch with them myself we would have showed up and possibly had nowhere to stay and would have been out all our money. Other than that our stay was great!

Great off-season location

We had an extended stay from Christmas Day through January 28th. The Tidewater complex is very large. Unlike other reviewers we did not have issues with elevator waits. I can see how it would be an issue during busy seasons. Complex has lots of security presence and access is tightly controlled. #1801 has a great layout. End unit has side views as well as full ocean views from the wrap around balcony. Worked well for us. Unit is definitely ready for an update. No major issues that were not resolved quickly by Panhandle Gettaways Mgt co. Just needs some work. i.e. some floor tile was loose and cracked (covered with a carpet.) Couches were tired- we covered with sheets and they were fine. I would go back for sure, but hopefully after a little work is done on the place. Pretty much what you would expect for a place directly on the beach in a spring break destination. Panhandle Gettaways was EXCELLENT! We deal with a lot of mgt companies. They were very responsive and quick to resolve any issues we had. Things come up during a 5 week stay and they nailed it!

Excellent Condo! Only have a few recommendations

The condo was beautiful, clean and had an excellent view with wrap around balcony. My only suggestion would be to add more drinking glasses and silverware, which weren't enough for 10 people to stay. We only had 7 stay, and there were only 4-5 spoons and 4-5 forks. Also, only 8 glasses total (all sizes included). I would highly recommend adding more basic kitchen items. Aside from these needs, the stay was excellent.

DONT STAY HERE

This condo is the worst condo I’ve ever stayed in. It has so much potential but the owner doesn’t want to keep up with the upkeep. The air filter covers were disgusting, there was throw up on the walls, there were roaches, the bedding wasn’t changed, none of the TVs worked, none of the bathroom sinks drained, and it was just an overall DISGUSTING CONDO. I’m thankful panhandle getaways was able to get us switched to a different condo.

Family vacation

Condo was not clean. Floors were absolutely disgusting. Spent most of our days waiting on elevators, not due to capacity of tidewater but because the elevators were so slow. We were drenched in sweat due to waiting at least an hour each time on elevator. No internet access at all, so none of the kids could use iPads to pass time. Dishwasher leaked so couldn’t use it the whole time until we checked out per instructions to do so, placed towels on floor to soak up water when it would leak again after leaving. Couldn’t turn AC down past 70 due to it “freezing up and then we’d have to pay service charge and fees” even though it was high 90s outside. AC in the building was also tore up so no cool places to rest. Will not stay at tidewater ever again or this condo.

Tidewater review

We had a great time on our short stay. The condo was spacious and located in a great location near Pier Park. My only complaints is the congestion is builds up to use the elevators, especially during check in time! We waited close to 30 minutes for an elevator after we checked in…we were on the 18th floor so, no, the stairs were not an option. It made is think twice about having to make the long trip to the car since the parking deck is across the street from the building. The cleaning staff could have done a better job, sorry but for the amount of money that is charged for cleaning, I expected the place to be spotless. The floors and sofas were still sandy. Also, the drains in one of the bathroom showers was clogged so it took forever for the water to drain. We ended up having a good time despite all the small annoyances. Panhandle was very quick to respond to all my texts and emails so I appreciated that! Lastly, FYI the resort charges a fee that is not included in your payment for those who use Vrbo.

Would not stay again

I travel quite frequently and use VRBO often, this property did not live up to my other travel on this site and I was not going to post a poor review but after emailing the property management 3 times with no response, I decided to go ahead and post here. The problems that I reported to them were: 1. There were numerous items from other guests left in the room. There were stuffed animals, clothes, a skim board and random small items laying around. In addition there was sand at the bottom of the bath tub and sand on the floor when we got there so I am curious as to why I paid so much money for cleaning when clearly this was not done. With COVID still present, I felt this was a very poor indication of sanitation. 2. The kitchen had no trash can! Not even a bag for garbage! I am not sure what you do with garbage from a large party, when there is no can provided? 3. The flooring of the condo is cracked and tiles are actually loose and falling out causing quite a fall hazard. 4. The elevators are a complete nightmare! It took at least 30 minutes at a time to catch one and if you just needed something from the car, it was an hour round trip! 5. The most upsetting situation was that a couple had come to our room and demanded to be let in because they said that they left their things inside. They said their keys and their swimsuits were inside and they needed to come inside to get them. They were pushy and rude, and quite scary with the way the world is today. My kids were very upset and felt very unsafe. I reported it to the desk who just said they were sorry this happened. I would not recommend staying here, The view is beautiful and you cannot get closer to the beach, but with the things that happened to use, it was not nearly worth the large price tag!

The condo at tidewater room 1801 was a great place to stay! It had plenty of room!

Just be prepared for congestion of elevators during peak season especially around check in / out time! We stayed on 18th floor that had a wrap around balcony so gave us plenty of space to sit and enjoy the views! Has plenty of space for at least 10 people without using pull out beds! Would recommend this condo!

Location is perfect

You pay for what you get! We traveled to PCB for fall break. We normally stay somewhere on 30A (Rosemary, Seaside, Alys Beach Etc) we stayed in PCB for 2 reasons... 1. Because it was close to my nephews college 2. My parents traveled with us and have health issues that make getting down to the beach hard and I knew with a condo it would be easy beach access. As it was! The beach was wonderful. As for the condo... the check in process was SLOW and a bit confusing. You need to check in on the second level and that wasn’t told to us. The elevators are a MAJOR NIGHTMARE. If you‘s like to waste your trip waiting for an elevator to get anywhere, the. This condo is PERFECT. We waited on average 20-30mins to catch an elevator every time we left the room. We didn’t even stay during peak season!! As for the layout of the condo it was great. Beds were comfortable. Linens/towels clean. The cleanliness of the condo was actually descent. The cleaning crew did what they are hired to do, but the condo defiantly was a product of over use. The deep cleanliness was gross! Walls needed to be painted, deep cleaning of kitchen was needed, toilet seats broken, kitchen cabinets falling apart, towel bars in bathroom off the wall. In general, just someone to take the time to DEEP clean and fix things in a condo that is rented hard would go along way. The furnishings were nice, you could tell they’ve tried to update and make modern with furnishings. I myself, am a VRBO owner and I know what can happen with a place if you don’t give it the attention it needs when it is rented heavy. A good cleaning crew only masks the issues. I will NEVER stay in a condo again of that size. The elevator situation is messed up and quiet frankly a health hazzard should there every be anytime of emergency.
