Fabulous Condo

We absolutely loved our stay in this condo. We loved being on the 1st floor and not having to use the elevators daily. The views from the living room windows and the upstairs balcony are wonderful. Everything was perfect. We will definitely try to rent this again next year for our family vacation.

Spring Break

We visited during Spring Break. It was very busy and construction was going on but we had the easy access to the skywalk and walking distance to and from Pier Park so it was excellent. Earnest called prior to our booking and gave lots of wonderful suggestions. He also checked in a few times during our stay to make sure we were comfortable and asked if we needed anything. We loved being in the first floor and not having to wait for elevators! We would definitely book this room again!

Ernest & Ella

The condo and the location were perfect for our stay in PCB! The hosts were absolutely amazing; the communication was second to none; they were available anytime we had a question and gave great recommendations for restaurants and activities around the area. The condo was on the beach, it was nice and clean, very welcoming and loved the security of the area. I felt very safe. Honestly I have nothing bad to say about this condo or the hosts; it was an absolute blast for myself, husband and 3 teenagers who fit in this condo comfortably and had the best vacation over Christmas break! Walking distance to Pier Park, great restaurants and a short drive to the baseball complex. 10/10 would recommend this place!

Location of the unit was great!! No need for elevators!!! The wait can be long at times if needed. The unit had everything you need especially if you want to cook. Great communication with Ernest and Ella. We were late checking in and Ernest checked on us to make sure we were ok. Access to the beach was very easy. The front door is positioned away from foot traffic. Over all everything was perfect we even added a extra day!!!

The Best stay in My Happy Place

My husband and I visit PCB every year for the Seabreeze Jazz Festival. Where we stay is very very important. Again Tidewater was our lodging resort of choice. This year we were blessed to reserved this unit. The unique 2 story floor plan was awesome. Mr. Ernest was very communicative from the time I made my reservation. He even required a phone conversation to introduce himself and to answer any questions oppose to electronic communication. I loved the unit. It was equipped with essentials in the kitchen that made it easy to make some quick meals. I loved cooking and viewing the oceanfront beach from the unit’s picturesque window. Up the winding stairs was the balcony. It means everything to me to be able to sit from a balcony to listen to the ocean. I appreciated the unit came with beach chairs and umbrella that we used to visit the beach before our festival started. The decor of unit was a beachy feel that I loved. Modern appliances and space to stretch out for all of us were great. One of the major assets to this unit is it’s on the 1st floor of Tidewater. Trying to catch the elevators at certain times of day is a nightmare. I had very little use of elevator in this unit. Being in walking distance to Pier Park also is perk. Thank you for allowing us to reserve your unit.

This was the perfect property for our family to stay during a weeklong softball tournament. The property was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for the week. The views of the beach are amazing. This is a two-story condo and the bedrooms are up a spiral staircase, so you would need to be able to get up and down the stairs. Obviously that was not an issue for us. I don’t think they advertise it heavily, but there are bunkbeds on the lower level, which could easily hold a couple of kids or small adults. It’s nice that the condo is on the first floor (not ground floor) so that it’s elevated above the beach a little bit for the views, but we could easily walk up and down a flight of stairs to get to Parking or the ground level as opposed to waiting for the elevators. The hosts were first class and were very thorough in their communication and checked on us to make sure everything was going well. We didn’t have any issues, but I got the sense they would be extremely responsive if we did. We spent so much time at the softball fields that we didn’t get to enjoy a lot of the amenities, but everything looked nice and well kept. Overall, a fantastic place to stay for a Panama City Beach trip!

We had a great stay here! The view is beautiful and the rooms were perfect for our party’s trip. Anything that you need can be found in this condo. It is perfect for being close to the restaurant and walking down one flight of stairs to go to the beach. The communication with the owners was a 10/10!!! I can’t say enough good things about this place. Loved it!
