Staff was great. Rooms ok. Good location. Had trouble with people above us tossing their cigarette butts in our patio area (we were on the ground floor). That is not a resort issue, just a rudeness one.

As soon as I walked in to give my name for check in I felt welcomed. The staff was very friendly. The rooms were clean and very well maintained. The only thing that happened while we were there was the elevator got stuck and stayed out of order both days but we managed with the stairs. I hated that for everyone. Overall a great place to stay great views and I would definitely recommend.

We are Panama City Beach locals and stayed for the week during spring break. We really enjoyed our stay and all of the things that were offered to us. My only complaint is the Wi-Fi would not reach the third floor and it was advertised. They did try to accommodate and offer us a room on the first floor so that we can reach the Wi-Fi signal, but we refused because we wanted the good view of the gulf other than that other than that, everything was perfect
