Panama City Beach is a very nice, white sand beach with clear, warm water. The seas are fairly calm so it's easy to enjoy the water. The area itself is pretty congested with hotels/restaurants/bars. We were there mid week in late September so it wasn't too bad. I would think that crowds would be an issue at busier times.

This is their offseason in January. There was still plenty to do. There were so many good restaurants that we went to. Neons had a roaring '20s party one night which was so much fun. We got dressed up and they had a live band and great food. They also had their Mardi Gras celebration at Pier Park. They had the street blocked off and had a parade and live bands. It was like a mini Mardi Gras. So much fun. They have a state park there on the Gulf or you can walk along the beach. The water is very tropical looking and plenty of beach to walk on. The town was hit by a tropical winter storm and you could see some of the damage but many places are open and in full swing. I will go back.

We loved the balcony overlooking the ocean and beach. Our Room was spacious, probably because it was handicap accessible. While well maintained, parts of this hotel are showing their age. The bathroom had an older plastic tub rather than walk-in shower. One of the mattresses (we had two queen beds) seemed to lean along the side near the nightstand, presumably because hundreds of people have sat on the edge of the bed there. The mattress was still pretty comfortable, but I had to roll up hill to get to the center. The first floor of the hotel is beautiful and the pool/patio area is very nice. Breakfast was terrific and Cheryl (staff) was friendly and efficient. There's a bar, which was a nice touch, but it closed very early so no nightcap after a long day. Parking in the garage is convenient, but costs $20 per night.

The beach was amazing! So clean! The water was great! We were in a high rise and could see so much! A shark swam by! Pretty big too! Manatees down the beach, stingrays! Amazing. Our friend went parasailing from our area! Could walk to bars and restaurants! The strip was on the other side of our resort. We didn’t have to drive at all! But we did!

This is the ultimate beach vacation experience!! The water was emerald green and the beaches were white sand and clean. The weather was perfect- even the cloudy days. My family loved it and we will be returning. Don't miss our on this spot!! Beautiful!!

Such a beautiful place to see. On the strip... Panama City Beach,Florida This place is a nice getaway even for a quick day trip. Plenty to see eat with all the main attractions. The best cleanest white sand, drinks and hotel lodging close to the pier right off the beach.

Stayed at Long Beach resort for 3 weeks. The resort was great, the beach and pool were amazing.,the perfect place. Not quite as busy as the other end by Pier Park. Lots of restaurants, bars activities near by. Walmart near by. State park was amazing.

Stayed at the Embassy Suites PCB and hotel and staff were awesome! Also would love to leave a review for Sue’s Thai Cafe a few miles down the road. Awesome little spot and food is delicious!
