Five of us stayed in one of the 2 bedroom condos. When we weren't at the beach or pool, we were on our balcony over looking the water. We liked the location which is close to the airport, a grocery store and pharmacy. The condo was a little beat up, and the sleeper sofa looked so uncomfortable that one of... More

The sandpiper was a very fun, if I may, and enjoyable place to stay. Great room, okay view, the only thing that would have made it a more enjoyable stay is if it was closer to Thomas Drive. Definitely will return to this hotel. Only complaint about my stay, is that I had to clean up. I mean I know... More

My room was facing Front Beach road, it was loud and noisy. Room itself is not clean, kind of expected. Room service did not clean the room for one day, she said... More

Besides being the best hotel in Panama City Beach, Fl for Spring Break, it is also the favorite amoung families and young adults. While staying here in February of 2013, they treated me no different than any other time I... More

My wife's family has stayed at the Sandpiper Beacon for many years. However, this was our first family trip in the Condo rooms. We were very pleased with the onsite activities for our family. The staff works very hard to ensure the many pools are clean and safe. Additionally, the daily kid activities are wonderful. Unfortunately, this is where the... More

While starting to show some of it's age, this hotel is still one of the great values in the Panama City Beach area. We were there for 7 nights, in a beach front 2nd floor room with a balcony, mini fridg, microwave, at a rate of just over $100 per night. In searching online, we found this to be most... More

Just checked out with a family of five. Enjoyed our stay as always. A little dissappointed about the indoor pool and lazy river being closed for painting. Also dissappointed in the lack of activities going on in the tiki bar. We stayed two years ago at the same time of year and enjoyed the inflatable movies, slides, karaoke, Polynesian fire... More
