Vacations Close To Port Panama City

I was glad that I had clarified that I was on the beach side of the resort. Several times when I was in the lobby, there were upset guests checking in who thought they were beachside but were really across the street. Overall, the location is great. It is not a modern or well-kept resort but is practical (plastic upholstery on couches) and spacious. The closet was huge and there was a full kitchen. I did not expect daily housekeeping but we got it, which was great. The balcony was a plus. Bathroom is tiny and felt dated, but sufficed. Did not use the pool because the beach was why we were there.

It started out we got there early and was unable to check in which is OK but was told they would call us and never did. When I returned after 4 there were 3 other people there that was told the exact same thing but did not happen. When we got into the room it was very hot and had a foul odor. There was black mode noted on the ceilings. We were on the 1st floor and could walk directly outside and when we did there was broken glass just outside our room. We never saw staff to be able to tell them and did not have confidence in the front staff. We had to ensure we were shoes as there was glass everywhere. There were 4 of us in the room and we had to request towels at the front desk each time we had or needed to take a shower. I could go on and on with similar situations but the final straw was when I received a text to tell me I could not stay beyond my scheduled departure but I didn't even request to stay I had every intention to leave on time. I would not recommend this place to anyone nor will I ever utilize their facility again.

We would have left upon arrival if we had not already paid and had nowhere else to go. The closer we got to the building, the worse the property looked. You could not see into the office, the windows were so dirty. I understand it is Florida weather, but still. The interior of the office did not look clean. We made our way toward the elevators. The exterior hallways did not look as though they had been swept or blown off in ages. The interior of the elevators were nasty. Now, all of that being said, the rooms were great...at especially in comparison. They were clean. The beds had wonderful white sheets and the bathroom was clean. The floors were clean and furniture dusted. The maids were very nice and accommodating. The view was stunning. The drinks were good and the bartender was very friendly. The pool looked clean and nice. I gave the rating I did because we did thoroughly enjoy our stay. I would just suggest that the hotel turn more attention to the hallways, stairs and elevator. It's mostly a matter of cleanliness and not major fixes. Would I stay there again? I am not sure...
