Sterling Reef Resort is one of the newest DIRECT GULF FRONT luxury resorts on the beach in Panama City. Completed in the summer of 2005, this unit has never been rented short term until the fall of 2006. Enjoy the sunrises and the sunsets from this brand new gorgeous condo with elegant upscale decorator furnishings. The views from the 11th floor are spectacular. From the spacious oversized balcony, look out over the emerald green water and white sandy beaches to watch the dolphins play! Or get up early to watch the stunning sunrise...a glimpse of heaven.

The unit boasts granite counter tops, 9 ft. ceilings, and tile in the living areas. There is a king in the master, queen in the guest, and a queen sleeper in the family room, for a total of 1076 sq. ft. of living space. Many extras and upgrades in the unit make it comfortable, relaxing, and fun. High speed internet will keep you connected, TV/DVD in both bedrooms and in the family room to entertain you. Access the balcony from the living area and master bedroom. Washer and dryer in the unit.

Sterling Reef amenities include a heated bi-level pool with connecting waterfall, fitness center overlooking the gulf, clubhouse with media room, video gameroom, movie rentals, sky BBQ terrace, and the convenience of covered parking in the same building. Located just west of M.B. Miller fishing pier (there is nothing in between Sterling Reef and the pier, and never will be), you enjoy 1700 feet of unspoiled and uncrowded beaches! Take your fishing pole right out to the pier to catch your dinner!! Directly across the street is Shipwreck Island Water Park, and must for kids of all ages. Alvin's Island gift shop is also right across the street, the first and best gift shop in the area. The location is great, in the heart of Panama City. Out to the beach and there are beach umbrella and chair rentals for you to enjoy, banana boat rides, parasailing, and jet ski rentals, all for a reasonable price.

If dining at home while on vacation is not your idea of fun, then get out and explore all the wonderful restaurants in Panama City and down 30-A. Some local favorites are 30 Degree Blue, Kingfish Plantation, Club 19, Lime's Bar and Grill, and the Saltwater Cafe and Martini Bar. Take a short ride to Rosemary Beach and try out the upscale restaurants Ona No and Blue by Night. Shades is in Inlet Beach, and a great casual restaurant for the entire family. Don't miss the spectacular architecture of Water Color, and while you are there have dinner at Fish Out Of Water, you won't be disappointed (very upscale, make this a romantic evening). Another favorite for breakfast and lunch is the Fonville Press at Alys Beach, where you will be in awe of the stunning all white, inspired from Greece, architecture. If you stop in Seagrove Beach, Cafe 30-A is one you don't want to miss, along with Bud and Alley's in Seaside. And don't forget the fun, The Red Door is where it is. Live jazz and great food will make this a night to remember.
