Gulf Highlands escape - pool and beach access

Welcome to Gulf Highlands #236 - your beachside townhouse in Panama City Beach, steps from the Gulf with a golf cart included and resort amenities at your doorstep!

- Sleeps 7 | 2 bedrooms | 4 beds | 2 baths
- Beach access steps away in Gulf Highlands community
- Golf cart included - explore the neighborhood and reach the shore with ease
- Resort-style pool and gym access on-site
- Full kitchen w/ dishwasher, BBQ grill and private backyard
- Free parking, washer/dryer, self check-in via keypad

Salt air, warm sand, and the Gulf just steps from your door - Gulf Highlands #236 puts you right in the heart of Panama City Beach's most sought-after beachside community. Pack light and settle in fast; the beach is practically in your backyard, and everything else rolls in on four wheels.
‍
The space
This two-bedroom townhouse was made for groups who want room to breathe. With four beds and two full bathrooms, up to 7 guests can spread out comfortably without anyone waiting on the bathroom or the couch. Natural light works through the space all day, keeping things bright and easy from morning coffee to late-night board games. A private entrance means you come and go on your own schedule.
‍
Sleeping arrangements
Two bedrooms sleep the group across four beds, each dressed with fresh linens and built-in storage so suitcases don't take over the room. Two bathrooms handle the morning rush without drama - plenty of hot water, shampoo, and towels provided.
‍
Kitchen and dining
Everything you need to cook is already here: refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, cooking basics, and a full set of dishes and silverware. Pull together a beach-day breakfast or a proper dinner for the group, then let the dishwasher do the rest. Children's dinnerware is on hand for little ones at the table.
‍
Outdoor living
The backyard gives you a private outdoor spot to decompress - fire up the BBQ grill for an evening cookout or just sit back and let the Gulf breeze do its thing. When you're ready to roam, the included golf cart makes it easy to cruise the Gulf Highlands community and reach the beach without breaking a sweat.
‍
Resort amenities
Gulf Highlands delivers more than just a place to sleep. Pool access and a gym are included, giving you somewhere to swim and stay active without leaving the community. Beach access is right there when the pull of the Gulf becomes too strong to resist.
‍
Everyday comforts
Air conditioning and heating keep things comfortable regardless of the weather outside. High-speed wifi, a TV, washer, dryer, iron, and hangers cover the practical side of a longer stay - long-term stays are welcome here. Self check-in via keypad and free on-premises parking mean arrival is completely on your terms. Smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm, and a fire extinguisher are all in place for peace of mind.

We loved our stay. The property was clean and just as advertised. The pool is right out side the back patio which is convenient. We would stay here again.

Advertised pool outside back door. When we got there we found out it was closed. Shouldn't advertise the pool if it's not open. Golf cart also was dead upon arrival. Shower was lukewarm even when set to full hot. Sectional couch smelled funny. Washer makes loud knocking sound during spin cycle on every load. Did have golf and tennis items for guest use.

There were a lot of pros and cons to this place. Pros: the resort has a lot to offer - it’s close to the beach, close to restaurants, close to grocery, secured property. The condo itself is at the back of the resort so leaving is super convenient as there is a gate very close by. You cannot enter through that gate though. The resort has a cafe/restaurant that is nice. Private beach access with bathrooms. Cons: the living room area rug was severely stained, the living room furniture was stained, the pool that is pictured to be right outside the sliding glass door is out of order (I get that resort upgrades are out of the owner’s hands, but this was very misleading as many of the pools were under construction when we stayed), we were given 3 k-cups for a week stay, the washing machine leaked water onto the floor, the golf cart was dead upon arrival (had to be charged).
