The suite
Mornings on the balcony at Tropical Tides. Light through the slider by 7:30, sea oats in the breeze, the pool gate opening below. The sliders open to a private balcony that runs the back length of the suite. It’s the only second-story suite at 318 Sundial, which means quieter mornings and a little more privacy than the ground floor. Three minutes to the public beach access on foot. Two off-street parking spaces.
This one’s our pick for couples, couples plus a kid or two, or two friends sharing.

Pool and parking
The pool is shared between Tropical Tides, Paradise Palms, and Sunset Shores. We heat it as needed when the units are occupied, set comfortable based on the temperature in the suites that week. It’s fenced, with an outdoor shower at the gate, and the deck is large enough that you won’t feel on top of other guests even when all suites are full.
You get two parking spots per suite, both off the street. The trash bins are at the curb on the standard Bay County schedule.
