When you stay at Laketown Wharf 1808, you have access to a private walkway to the sugary-white sands of Panama City Beach and the turquoise Gulf of Mexico—and to a host of other amenities.

The sprawling resort includes not one but 5 pools, including a wading pool for little ones. Surrounding the pools are spacious sundecks outfitted with chaises. After your swim, you can dry off in the sun or laze beneath the shade of a palm tree. The resort has a freshwater lake as well, surrounded by a 52,000-square-foot boardwalk where you can admire the sunrise or marvel at the sunset as you stroll. The resort’s putting green can help you prepare for a day at one of the nearby golf courses or a trip to mini golf with the kids. If a day spent swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, or parasailing on the gulf isn’t enough exercise for you, work out in the resort’s fitness center, which includes a cardio room. Afterward, treat yourself to a soak in the outdoor hot tub. Laketown Wharf even has 2 restaurants on the premises—Wharf, a seafood buffet, and Sunshine Bar & Grill—along with a bar and a convenience store. Between the beach, the on-site amenities, and the numerous restaurants, bars, shops, and attractions within walking distance, you could easily park your car in the covered lot and forget about during your stay.

Unit 1808 has amenities of its own. For starters, there’s the spacious covered balcony that looks out over the beach and the gulf. Furnished with tables, chaises, and chairs, the balcony will likely be a favorite place to kick back with friends and family. Nothing beats dining on the balcony amid the salt-kissed breezes as seabirds soar across the sky. At least once while you’re here, time dinner or drinks to coincide with the sunset, which bathes the gulf in fiery reds, oranges, and golds. It’s a sight you’ll long remember.

The sliding glass doors that connect the balcony to the living/dining area also allow you to relish the view even when you’re indoors stretched out on the sofa or nestled in an armchair. Laketown Wharf 1808’s living area is large enough for the whole gang to kick back and watch a movie on the flat-screen TV with cable or to play Pictionary. The condo has free WiFi too, so you can catch up on email, reserve tee times, and post photos of your adventures on Instagram and Facebook.

When you’re not dining on the balcony—or at one of the resort restaurants or the numerous nearby eateries—you can do so in Laketown Wharf 1808’s dining area. The table seats 4, and 3 more people can settle in at the adjacent breakfast bar. When not being used for eating, the breakfast bar provides additional kitchen counter space. Equipped with a full gamut of appliances, gadgets, cookware, and tableware, the kitchen can handle a Thanksgiving feast and daiquiris to sip on the balcony with equal aplomb.

Like the living area, Laketown Wharf 1808’s master suite opens onto the balcony. From the king-size bed, you can wake up to the sight of sunlight sparkling on the gulf. This spacious room also features a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with both a soaking tub and a shower.

The 2nd bedroom includes a queen-size bed and its own flat-screen TV. There’s a 2nd full bathroom too, with a combination shower/tub. If you’re vacationing with little ones, they’ll love the sleeping nook, furnished with bunk beds. Extra guests can sleep in the living area, as the sofa opens into another queen-size bed.

Chances are, though, you probably won’t be spending that much time sleeping. After all, there’s the beach just across the street, multiple swimming pools, and attractions including mini golf and WonderWorks within walking distance.
