Bikini Beach Resort

Panama City Beach|1.14km from city center
The room itself was fine, and location was nice. However, I will never stay here again because of extreme unprofessionalism from the hotel “security,” and poor customer service of front desk staff after I was accused of lying and was threatened to have the cops called on me over a simple misunderstanding regarding the pool. During my stay, my cousin and her handicapped boyfriend were visiting and we decided to go to the pool around 11pm. The hotel confirmation email that I had received prior to my stay clearly stated 24 hr pool access, so I was confused when the side gate to the pool wouldn’t open. As I was trying to figure out how to open the gate so that we could enter the pool area, a girl outside the far end of the pool area showed us that that gate was open and that we could enter through it. So we went in, sat our things down, and were getting into the pool when 2 “security” men approached us and told us to get out immediately. According to them, the pool closed at 10 pm, and when I explained that I read that it was 24 hour pool access, they replied, “no you did not,” and would not listen to or believe me. They also wanted to know how we got access into the pool area because they had locked it. When we explained that some girl showed us that the gate was open, they did not believe us and instead accused us of breaking the lock to get in. They were very angry and would not hear us out and, as we were gathering up our things and my cousin’s handicapped boyfriend was getting into his wheelchair and my cousin was trying to get her shoes on, the men again told us that we needed to get out immediately or they would call the cops on us. I took the issue to the front desk and explained everything and showed where the email had stated 24 hr pool access. She explained that they have been having a lot of issues with third party bookings, which is how I booked. She said “sorry bout that,” as if it was the tiniest of mistakes, but we did not get a true apology for how poorly we were treated by the men at the pool. The next morning I went back out to the pool area and confirmed that there were no pool hours posted anywhere. There also were no times listed on the website. I went back to the front desk and again explained the previous night’s situation, and all I was told was that “all pools close at that time,” with a dead stare from the front desk staff, as if they could care less that I was upset and that it was my fault for not knowing that the pool closed at 10, regardless of there being no signs with pool hours anywhere around the pool area. I never did get a sincere apology for the poor treatment we received by those 2 men or for their threatening to call the cops on us. I’m sorry this is so long but if you are considering this resort, I advise against it. There is better customer service literally anywhere else.

Hampton Inn and Suites Panama City Beach/Beachfront

Panama City Beach|7.21km from city center
My wife and I had a great visit. We were going to stay 1 night as we were done with work in the area. Thought it'd be nice to have a balcony room looking over the beach. Well, it was better than great so we stayed another night. Beach was clean, safe and the water was warm. Softest sand. Parking garage was easy to find and secure. 2nd floor of parking garage is where you enter walk way above road and then take elevator to lobby. Easy and safe. I had called to make reservation and that was as friendly and smooth as can be. Lobby was clean and inviting, atmosphere was full of life. Checking in was so easy and friendly. Has a bar on site, serves food which I might add was delicious. We had the chicken parmesan. Highly recommend eating there. Beer was cold of course. We slept in both mornings and didn't experience the breakfast, which I was told by other couples we met there was great also. Location is close to stores and restaurants. We want to personally thank, Tony, Tiffany, Mel and Mandy for above and beyond customer service. Always helpful, smiling, full of life and professional. They certainly put the customer first and never did I hear ”no, can't, don't or won't.” Whatever it was they always came through. I did meet the cooks from the kitchen and they were so friendly and full of life as the above mentioned were. Room was clean and neat all around. We will be back of course but this time for a few days or more. Again Thank you for an outstanding visit to your location and the best hospitality I've experienced in a long time. Certainly a must stay when you're in the area.

Holiday Inn Club Vacations Panama City Beach Resort
4.6/543 Reviews
I think I would've been much happier with this resort if it wasn't falsely advertised. They have it rated as a 4.5 -5 star property which it absolutely is not. there's NO service to speak of. There's one person who sits behind a desk like a motel. you even light your own fire pits . theres a couple of games out for the kids , connect for, etc. I'm unclear why it's categorized as a vacation club. The amenities are minimal. There is a game room on the fifth floor but it's not worth going to. The room furnishings are very islander style. Definitely nothing luxurious, but it was comfortable enough. my bathtub didn't drain each night and the pillows were so high I got a neck ache. They definitely aren't Marriott heavenly beds. Panama City draws a clientele that is less desirable than Rosemary Beach or Santa Rosa Beach witch is driving distance. there were still plenty of families on the beach here . I will be positive and say that the views are absolutely amazing and every room is oceanfront. We stayed in room 203, which was down one flight of stairs to the sand. this property is only five floors high which I loved. there are high risers on either side. the front of the hotel does sit on a busy street, which is worth noting, and the area is nothing that I would feel safe walking around at night. so I am going to say if you expect a three star property, you will be happy. I feel like my review is fair. I did have a wonderful week. I came here with my 13-year-old daughter to kick off the summer. I was incredibly disappointed as I was told. It was a five star property but once I adjusted mentally I was OK. I stayed in a one bedroom. there was massive construction happening at the front of the resort, so check if that's complete if you're coming in June. if you get a good price on the room, it's definitely worth staying here. The hot tub was amazing and piping hot but my issue was there was no check system so anyone can walk in and use the facilities.

We stayed at this hotel in September 2021 and had a great experience. The room was clean and everything was in working order. I loved the balcony view from the 3rd floor and the swimming pool was the real highlight. There is also a small laundry area located near the office. The only thing negative was one of the elevators was slow but otherwise, we had a great stay and will be back!

This is my second stay at this hotel. I must say that this stay was even better then the last. The staff are amazing. We got to meet the general manager this time and he was so nice. The place is under construction but it doesn’t effect the stay at all. That its self is amazing. We come to Panama City beach every other month and this will be our new home away from home. Thank you Johnny and your staff for making us feel welcome.
