The Summit Condominiums, a 3-star family-oriented complex, offers beachfront vacation rentals with Gulf views on Panama City Beach's sugar-white Emerald Coast.
Spacious Beachfront Units
The Summit's one-bedroom condominiums feature 1.5 baths, bunk beds in the hallway alcove, a king bed in the bedroom, and a queen sofa sleeper accommodating up to six guests. Two-bedroom units sleep eight people, while three-bedroom penthouses accommodate up to twelve guests.
On-Site Dining Options
Bikini Bob's Restaurant serves on-site meals, while the poolside Tiki Bar offers drinks seasonally. The Summit Market Shop provides sundries, hamburgers, salads, wraps, gourmet coffee, and ice cream.
Resort Amenities
A sauna and hot tub allow guests to relax throughout their stay at the Summit Condominiums. Facilities include two large main pools, two children's pools, three hot tubs, lighted tennis courts, shuffleboard, a fitness center, and a beach playground.
Beach Location
Located 21.5 miles from Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport, The Summit Condominiums sits on Thomas Drive with direct beach access. The property is 0.3 miles from Club La Vela, the largest nightclub in the U.S.
“In my opinion, this Panama City Beach condominium complex primarily appeals to families seeking a budget-friendly beachfront getaway. The multiple pools and proximity to local attractions are definite assets. However, I think potential guests should be aware that elevator waits can be lengthy, especially during peak seasons.”
