Relax & Play – Spacious Beach Home w/ Arcade + Huge Rooftop Deck
The Salty Blue is a spacious three-story beach villa on Thomas Drive in Panama City Beach, just an easy three-minute walk (800 ft) to the sugar-white sand. With room to sleep 16 guests and four full baths, it’s designed for families and groups who want comfort, fun, and convenience. Highlights include a rooftop deck with Gulf views, an arcade, and a bunk room the kids will love, along with open living spaces for gathering. The villa is perfectly located near St. Andrews State Park, marinas, dining, and popular PCB attractions, yet tucked into a quieter stretch of beach for a more relaxed stay. The Salty Blue is designed for groups who want comfort, fun, and convenience.
Guests love The Salty Blue for its space, comfort, and fun extras that make every stay easy. The rooftop deck is a true retreat, offering Gulf views, a firepit, Blackstone grill, loungers, and dining space under the stars. Inside, you’ll find plenty of entertainment from an arcade machine and foosball/pool table to puzzles, board games, cornhole, and giant Jenga. Families appreciate the kid-friendly bunk room for eight, plus a highchair, two Pack ’n Plays, and a collection of books and games. Beach days are simple with a three-minute walk to the sand, two outdoor showers, and sand toys provided. Modern comforts include high-speed WiFi, Smart TVs in every room, and a no-chores checkout so you can relax until the very last minute, with free parking for up to three vehicles right in front.
The villa is designed to shine in every season. In fall and winter, enjoy cooler breezes, golden sunsets, and local festivals with fewer crowds. It is perfect for holiday hosting, long weekends, or escaping the chill back home. Guests love grilling on the rooftop deck or gathering around the firepit at night. Spring and summer bring beach vacations, spring breaks, and group getaways where you can walk to the beach in minutes and spread out across three levels built for fun and comfort.
The layout makes it easy for everyone to have their own space. The first floor features a cozy living room with Smart TV and queen sofa bed, a well equipped kitchen with bar seating and a dining table for ten, plus a private king suite with Smart TV and en suite bath. A laundry room with washer and dryer is also on this level. Upstairs, the second floor offers two king suites, each with private bathrooms - one with a walk-in shower and balcony, the other with a desk and workspace. The third floor is all about fun, with a bunk and game room that sleeps eight, an arcade, foosball/pool table, Smart TV, books, and puzzles, along with a kitchenette and full bath. From here, step out onto the rooftop deck with Gulf views, outdoor dining, loungers, a firepit, and games.
The Salty Blue’s location on Thomas Drive is one of its best features. It is close to everything yet tucked into a quieter stretch of beach. Guests can easily reach St. Andrews State Park for hiking, fishing, dolphin tours, and Shell Island, while nearby marinas, mini golf, go-karts, and boat rentals add more options for fun. Local dining is just minutes away with seafood favorites, casual beach bars, and waterfront restaurants, and grocery stores and shops are within a five-minute drive for convenience.
