Thank you for choosing Tropic Winds Beach Resort 502 and for the kind review. We're glad everything was exactly as described and that our team communicated well. We appreciate the recommendation for a family getaway and would love to host you again.
The room was mostly perfect. Only cons were the washing machine would only wash in hot water so it ruined some of our clothes and the parking deck is not designed for large SUVs. The room was decorated perfectly and the view was amazing.

Thank you for your wonderful review, Debra! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the condo and its amenities. We look forward to welcoming you back for another stay!
Our first time in Panama City went there on advice from my neighbors who have rented a condo at Tropic Winds 9 or 10 years in a row. We intentionally picked off season so beaches were not so crowded. Very happy with Tropic Winds and suspect we will be back.

Thank you for your awesome review! We endeavor to go above and beyond to ensure our guests have a memorable experience and it's so encouraging to receive this kind of feedback. We look forward to hosting you again soon!
This was a great spot for our family vacation. We were all together but everyone still had their privacy, really loved that all the bedrooms had their own bathroom. Balcony was huge and it was so nice for all of us to be able to sit out there together. Completely what I was expecting. Thank you so much!

Thank you for the FAB 5 Star Review! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return :). Cheers!
We had an extended stay here. The condo was very nice and comfortable. There were a couple of maintenance issues that were quickly cleared up. The balcony and outdoor furniture were much appreciated. One downside: the property management company should not schedule non-emergency maintenance while the unit is occupied.

Pleasant place!
The unit is well equipped and maintained. We were 9 adults and never ran out of hot water. AC is also well distributed. Building has 3 fast elevators. Easy beach access. Pool, sauna and spa were also clean and well maintained.

The layout worked perfectly for our group and the balcony set up was a definite 5 Star. The only downfall was having carpeting, especially the living room rug that felt sticky. The parking garage was the strangest layout I have ever seen. All in all we really enjoyed our stay!!

Great place to stay for large families
Mermaid Haven was absolutely lovely! The owners really care about their condo because it is very well cared for. Clean spaces, great beds, beautiful decor; a wonderful place to call home away from home. This will definitely be a return spot for my family. All nine of us (5 adults, 4 kids) we're comfortably accommodated. It's a short drive to Pier Park but close enough to Thomas Donuts to walk. Charter fishing with Captain Anderson's didn't disappoint and the kids loved Gulf World - I got a great deal on tickets from Groupon😄. Looking forward to returning again in the summer.

Everything is great about this condo except the parking situation. If you have a big vehicle, it will be harder to get in and out their parking lot. We love the location of the condo, easy to get around especially easy to go to the beach. I’d recommend it.

Not worth the money. Glass on balcony kids almost stepped in, slow draining sinks, constant maintenance noise, broken items in the facility (no cable box), tried to charge for an additional parking pass, and the amenities are terrible. Outdated building that isn't worth the money.

Our condo had easy access to and from the parking lot and beach. We were give two parking passes but only one reserved spot with the intentions to park in one of the three over flow parking garages. The one across the street had only 5 free spaces. The other garages were over 5 miles away. This was the worst process of the stay. It was very inconvenient and hard to find parking for our second vehicle in our group. When booking it was stated there were designated smoking areas. Turns out it was the sidewalk. The pool was nice. We did not grill or use the hot tub but from our balcony we could see the area for them both with others enjoying them. We utilized only one of our bonus rewards. The free shell island cruise. That was a wonderful day trip but the tickets can be found cheaper on the internet rather than paying for the rest of your party when redeeming the free ticket. For the price of our condo I wish we had a day or two more nights. It was beautiful though and clean. All in all we did have a wonderful vacation and definitely would go back.

We really enjoyed the view and the time at beach. It was hard to enjoy movie night due to the tv continuously over heating, but the balcony view and game nights were perfect.
