Why the Owner Chose Tidewater Beach Resort
Nancy and Steve fell in love with the Florida Panhandle when a good friend recommended we visit shortly after we relocated to Atlanta from Toronto, Canada. We had previously enjoyed the beaches in many parts of Florida as well as the Caribbean - but nothing can match the beaches we found in the Panama City Beach area. The sand is sugar white and so fine it literally squeaks when you walk and the water is the deep aqua, teal blue usually only found in the Caribbean. We vacationed in the area for many years at rental properties and finally decided to permanently invest when we discovered Tidewater Beach Resort. We purchased preconstruction several years ago and selected it over other new resorts being built because of the amazing amenities - 3 pools (including an indoor pool), great fitness center with his/her roman tubs, steam rooms, sauna, workout facility, onsite stadium seating movie theater, onsite restaurant and great family atmosphere. We stayed at and looked at many resorts before deciding on Tidewater Beach Resort. Now that the building is completely finished - it has exceeded our expectations. The onsite staff does a great job keeping everything clean and managing the operations. The location is unbeatable - right in the heart of the new West Beach area in Panama City Beach which has new luxury resorts, Pier Park shopping and entertainment district and great restaurants.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Since this is truly our second home, we equipped the unit with high quality furnishings and linens. We wanted our guests to feel as if they were staying in a true beach home - so we had our unit professionally decorated in beach cottage decor with a clean, upscale 'Pottery Barn' look. We provide lots of little extras like cooking spices and a fully equipped kitchen, Sealy Posturepedic mattresses, Sharp 1080 LCD TV, Blueray player, DVD player and flat panel screen in each bedroom and lots of games and books for the kids. There is plenty of seating on the balcony - whether you choose to relax on a lounge chaise or enjoy morning coffee or a glass of wine at the table and chairs.
Our location is unbeatable! Walk to Pier Park shopping and entertainment district. You can see Frank Brown Park from our window. Amazing restaurants close by. Minutes to the upscale seaside villages of Water Color, Seaside, Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach that has unique shops, restaurants and entertainment. If golf is your game - there are several challenging courses in the area including the Nicklaus Course at Bay Point Resort, Bay Point's Meadow Course, Holiday Golf Club, Signal Hill Golf Course and Windswept Dunes. You are also a short drive from Sandestin. There are lot's of choices for beach activities including parasailing, wave runners, banana boats and of course don't miss Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum.
Location of Little League World Series and other sports events. Tidewater Beach is the closest luxury condo to the park. You can see it from our front door.
