Shores of Panama is a 23-story beachfront resort condominium in the heart of Panama City Beach, on Florida's Gulf-coast Panhandle. One of the tallest and best-known buildings on that stretch of the Emerald Coast, it combines residential condos with a full resort operation — many owners use units as vacation rentals when not in residence.
The amenities are resort-scale: a zero-entry lagoon pool, a resort-style pool, a lazy river, multiple hot tubs (including a star-shaped one), a heated indoor pool, a fitness center, sauna and steam room, poolside tiki bars, a coffee shop, a pizza parlor, a clubhouse, a game room, a business center, and 24-hour security, all steps from the sugar-white sand. Units range from compact studios to three-bedroom, three-bath Gulf-front condos, most with balconies and in-unit laundry.
Panama City Beach draws a different buyer than South Florida — Gulf beaches, a lower price point, and strong short-term-rental demand make buildings like this popular with investors as well as second-home owners. Check the association's rental rules if income is part of the plan.
