I've found that to be able to trust a traveler's review, you must know the standard accommodation that the traveler is accustomed to. I "grade" based on amenities in the room and at the hotel. I have high expectations for both. For tidewater, I will say that it depends on what you're looking for and the particular unit that you... More

Two couples stayed in Tidewater 1413 from 4/7 thru 4/13. Although the Resort was nice overall and we will return to the propery, we will never return to this particular unit based on its condition and the lack of response to our concerns by Panhandle Getaways, the property manager. Where do I begin? What a disappointment! In the guestroom attached... More

Just returned home from a week stay at Tidewater. Our unit was on the 6th floor and was very clean. A tote bag filled with goodies was waiting for us when we arrived. It was filled with toothpaste, paper towels, 3 rolls of toilet paper, laundry detergent, a sponge etc. When we ran out of trash bags, more were provided... More

This is a very nice resort, but be prepared to buy your own toilet paper,(we had 8 person unit, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and one roll of TP!) Kleenex, trash bags..... and there is no towel exchange, you must launder your own. For the quality of resort this is these small things are disappointing.

We stayed at Tidewater Beach unit 1208 July 2012. We did not have to worry about checking in as we rented from a property manager who gave us the pass code for the unit. Yes welcome to Tidewater, looking for parking, luggage carts and then elevators. It is mayhem in its fineness. We have overlooked the wait for the luggage... More

We visited October 5-12, 2012, and this marked the third time in as many years that we had stayed at Tidewater. We still love it just the same, and still plan to stay there every time we visit Panama City Beach. It's easy to find, close to the pier, Pier Park, restaurants, and shopping, but still far enough away from... More

The location makes this a great place. Most condos are individually owned, so you don't always know what you're going to get. The front desk was gracious enough to get us a different condo when the one we had reserved was not to our liking. The pool is beach side, but nothing beats the Gulf. The resort has a hot... More

This condo is a great place for families. It has great condos, great location on the beach, and is very close to Winn Dixie which means you don't have to fight the crowd at Walmart, and, is only a short walk to Pier Park. There are lots of activities during the day by the pool..face painting, hoola hoop contests..lots of... More

Check the dates on these reviews because if you stay at Tidewater during the summer, you will spend ALL of your time waiting for elevators along with hundreds of angry, tired, sweaty vacationers. Our unit was okay and the pools were nice, but I cannot say enough about how terrible check-in, check-out, dinner, lunch, mid-day elevator traffic was. As long... More
