About the neighborhood
Panama City Beach
Located in Lower Grand Lagoon, this vacation home is a leisurely stroll from sights such as Panama City Beaches and St. Andrews Bay. The vacation home includes a balcony, a refrigerator, and a microwave.
Perched on the 13th floor with wide Gulf views, Gull Watch brings the best of Panama City Beach right to your balcony. This bright beachfront condo is made for slow mornings, salty breezes, and easy days on PCB’s East End, where the shoreline feels a little calmer and St. Andrews State Park is just next door.
Inside, the space is light, coastal, and comfortable, with an open living area that looks straight out to the water. Slide open the balcony doors and let the Gulf set the mood, whether you’re sipping coffee at sunrise, relaxing after the beach, or winding down with sunset views over the water. The kitchen includes the essentials for simple meals and beach-day snacks, while the dining area gives you a casual spot to gather between outings.
The bedroom offers a peaceful place to recharge after a day in the sun, while the living area provides extra room to lounge, watch TV, or simply take in the view. Added conveniences like in-home laundry make longer beach stays easy, especially after sandy days along the shore.
The resort-style amenities make it easy to enjoy the beach without overplanning. Guests have access to a seasonally heated Gulf-front pool, hot tub, shuffleboard, picnic areas, and tennis courts, plus beach chair service available to rent right in front of the property. You can also walk straight into St. Andrews State Park from the area, making it easy to explore one of PCB’s most loved coastal spots without the hassle of driving.
Set near Patches Pub and the natural beauty of St. Andrews State Park, Gull Watch is a relaxed home base for beach days, sunset balcony hangs, casual dining, and classic Panama City Beach fun. Guests will check in at the security gate for passes and property details. The condo is located on the 13th floor, with elevators available on the ground level at the center of the building.

Very nice beach front condo. The Commodore is a calm and relaxing condominium.
Property location and size met our needs perfectly.
The location and size of the property was just what we needed for this trip. Overall the property was in good condition and was well stocked and clean. There was a hole cut in the wall between the bedroom and bathroom in one of the rooms...not sure what that was about; the entry door was difficult to lock and the rug in the living area definitely needed to be cleaned or replaced.
