Loved the fact that the patio to our room walked right onto the beach!! The room was okay, atleast it was clean and had the wonderful beach access. I did NOT like the fact that they do not have an elevator and we had two flights of stairs to get to our room. The staff was great and very helpful. I would recommend as long as you don't mind stairs!

Honestly the room we stayed at was great for the price! We paid around $500 for 3 nights. The room was clean and it was right on the beach. However, it was definitely dated. The bathroom could use updating, and the parking is not ideal. It’s free but it gets full on the weekends and you have to park across the street. Overall it’s worth the price.

The views and the proximity of the rooms to the beach are simply incomparable. Everything else was fine, but I would recommend that—if they aren't going to install an elevator—they at least build a ramp so that guests can comfortably transport their suitcases and belongings to and from their rooms. The number of guests complaining about this very issue is countless; they should have done something already.

Walked right out to the beach! Although we didn't use the pool, we walked by it and it was clean. Beds were comfortable and rooms were spacious. Staff was helpful in recommending places to eat. Would definitely recommend this place.
Steps from our door right onto the beach!

The hotel initial looked older but we were pleasantly surprised at the updated rooms, comfortable beds, access out your door to the beach, and a great sunning and kids area. It has the outer feel of the older hotels but the comfort of new rooms. We would stay here again. Great staff.

Views from balcony was gorgeous, pool was nice! Easy beach access. Front desk staff were not helpful and sometimes rude. Our room was mostly clean, however we had no towels, no soap, coffee pot was broken. Asked for a new one and never got it. If you just need a place to crash and shower, this is it. If you want soap or towels or coffee, might not be the place for you. Bed was pretty stiff, we had lots of pillows though!

The view was beautiful, of course. We stayed in a walk out patio room. The best one available! Probably my favorite place so far, super close , walkout beach access. The hotel is old, but very clean. The beds are hard. But, I’d definitely stay again.

The balcony, view and easy accessibility to the beach far make up for anything else. If you have any physical limitations I suggest you make sure you are on the ground level. The staff were great. We arrived off the road several hours before check-in and they allowed us to check-in early. I wish we could have stayed longer.

We stayed for 2 nights at this location. It is a very dated location with few upgrades. Beach access is easy Pool is spacious Cleanliness is needed for sure No amenities (not even pools towels) There are much better options out there.. we found it once we arrived and checked in. Will definitely explore other hotels if we come back to panama beach again.

The view from your room was incredible. Your private balcony overlooked the Gulf of America and was amazing. They had a tiki bar where you could get a cocktail by the pool. Those are the positives. The rooms were terrible the places run down and it's a throwback to the 1950s. If they would retro with paint and such the place could be spectacular like something out of old Hollywood but as it is it's terribly run down and not someplace I would stay again. But that view!
