Beware of room 144
Room 144 was a terrible place to stay. It was loud with conversations late into the night and early morning workers. Carts rolling morning and night and barking dogs. I loved the resort but this room should not be rented

The perfect family place to stay!
Great location. Close to pier park. Fantastic amenities. We visited in the winter and all the pools were nicely heated and so much fun for the kids. Rooms and grounds were clean. Room was well laid out with lots of space. Staff and even other guests were kind. Sunset views were picture perfect. Food at coconuts was pretty good too.

The floors of the room weren't cleaned between guests. When we got there the floor was greasy from spray sunblock and covered in sand. We wore our shoes inside the whole time.
Check in is at 5 and check out is at 10. A 5 o'clock check in is crazy.

Sandpiper Beacon Beach panama city beach
It was pretty clean, no issues there. Pretty quiet since it was off-season. Some of the rooms are kind of small with those big king beds. Right on the beach was definitely a plus! Coin laundry room on site. I would come back with a group in better weather but i image the traffic is horrendous during warmer months.
