Panama City Beach Resorts

Pros: Everything about to apartment except the location

Cons: The location

Pros: Was close to Beach and shops

Cons: Staff was not knowledgeable about anything! I asked about a coke machine said didn’t know if any on property?? Also I went to front Desk for an extra roll of toilet paper, you would have thought I asked for the Hope Diamond!! I was told I had received 2 rolls per toilet and to “go buy more myself”!! I was planning too but, the truth is we had a half roll than another, not 2 full rolls! Wouldn’t hurt to have a few extras up at front Desk for emergencies! Staff was rude would not stay at this location again!

Cons: The parking is extremely tight. Especially when you are in a full size 4 door truck.

Pros: I liked everything with the room, pool, beach, parking garage and location

Cons: There was hardly any staff in the lobby. I am glad that there was when I arrived but during my stay they never issued a parking pass and when I would get a notice and go to the lobby, no one was there to help.

Pros: Location

Cons: Parking a little tight.

Pros: We liked that we received an umbrella and 2 chairs everyday at no additional charge.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Everything

Pros: Location was great and Facility over all was nice.

Cons: Condo wasn't quiet as clean as it could have been. Parking spaces were much too narrow and parking deck was really tight for a larger vehicle.

Cons: The guy where we booked our beach chairs was extremely rude.

Pros: Perfect location and amazing view

Pros: Amenities were nice.

Cons: Shower overflowed

Pros: Location and convenient store pcb

Cons: Need a new maintenance guy I'am a builder and there were some half a@# things done in the bathroom I am just saying for a 4 star everything is important

Pros: The rooms were nice & clean.

Cons: I do understand that the hotel was under construction but for the rate it's not worth it. We were on the 4th floor,there are no signs telling you where the rooms are,most of the rooms were open & having work done.This did not feel like a resort.

Pros: The hotel is luxe compared to what most hotels was offering nearby. It was clean and comfy.

Cons: I requested a double bed and recieved an email saying that my request is approved and that the hotel and accommodate it. But when I came to the room it was just one king bed. I was only staying for one night and didn’t want to make it a big deal.

Pros: Great views, comfortable bed.

Cons: Crowded bathroom. Door almost bumps toilet and makes entry awkward. Change to a barn door? Or pocket door?

Pros: Location of hotel, private beach.

Cons: Bartender inside the hotel was very unfriendly. Hotel lost power for hours. Morning of 10/7/18

Pros: On the final day of our stay there was no power in the building. Was told you are checking out anyway as though i hadnt paid for electricity the entire timr

Cons: Not being able to reach front desk

Pros: Excellent stay! Me and my girlfriend enjoyed every part of it!

Cons: The bathroom floor was chipped, in the restroom, but that’s it

Pros: We enjoyed the hotel as a whole

Cons: The resort view wasn’t as expected but still neck

Cons: Inconsistent or non-existent housekeeping. Ordered and confirmed our early morning airport transportation. Discovered at hotel departure time that desk attendant never placed request. Patio and stair lights not working thus unsafe.

Pros: The location was quiet and away from the main hustle and bustle. The staff was helpfull and friendly. Free bike rentals to get a look at things around the resort.

Cons: They opened without all the ametities being available including the private beach, 2nd pool, and pier. The balconies on the 1st building are small, couldnt fit a chair to sit.

Pros: Location, layout, pools, beach

Cons: Apartment not stocked well...cups, bowls, can opener etc. Torn rugs, uncomfortable couch.

Pros: Absolutely beautiful! Landscaping, walkways, lighting, it was so quaint and romantic!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: I liked the accessibility to everything. I really felt like a resort !

Cons: I believe the rooms could be a little more updated .. the room had a closed in (old house) smell.

Pros: The location is close to Rosemary Beach and other fun places to visit.

Cons: The couch has dark stains on it and honestly needs to be replaced. We didn’t even sit down. My friend and I stayed the first night and then booked another hotel for the next 4 nights, even though we had already paid for our hotel there.

Pros: Everything here is a wonderful experience. You have the access to many pools, a walk to the beach and restaurant close by.

Pros: The hotel is a very nice place with 4 pools and nice big clean apartment rooms however ..

Cons: The hotel is unattended at night me and my wife and 2 young children got stuck in there small HOT!! Lift for some time pressing the alarm on the lift and calling the emergency button inside the lift and no body came out or answered the phone it was lucky another guest at the hotel walked passed and helped pull the doors open witch allowed me to pass my small children through before getting my self through the small gap when my wife woke up in the morning and told the front desk the lady just replied “yeah I heard about that did it take them long to get you out?” My Two young kids was scared to death they didn’t no what was going on they refuse to go inside a lift now and for them to just say that seems to me they do not care about there guest!

Pros: Lots of privacy, beautiful beaches and pools, great value

Cons: Location was a little bit of a drive from the main part of pcb but it comes with privacy and isn't crowded, pets allowed on property but not on the beaches, one guest kept putting her dog in the pool which was gross

Pros: Pools, beaches

Cons: was to have a hot tub and gas fireplace. Gas turner off for fireplace , no hot tub. Vero disappionting.

Pros: Location is Great

Pros: Location was very close to family, eating establishments, and within a short walk to the gulf.

Cons: We had very low water pressure in shower. Bathroom door was in the way of the one sink. It had to be closed to use the sink.

Pros: Close to the beach. It's like a studio apt.

Pros: Everything

Cons: It was great

Pros: I liked the cleanliness, the atmosphere and the ease of access to the beach. The pools were absolutely wonderful as well.

Cons: There was only one thing I didn't like. I did not like constantly being approached by sales people trying to talk me into spending a day of my honeymoon / vacation in some kind of sales presentation. Once was enough and completely understandable. I was approached several times while I was out shopping though. We were noticed by the hotel band we had to wear. It was like a beacon for those sales guys to approach us.

Pros: Great location. Large room. Great views. Friendly staff. Nice that theres a Starbucks on site.

Cons: No hair dryer. And with the large cleaning fee, we still have to take out the trash and clean. The beach chairs were nice but people would just sit wherever they wanted without getting an assignment.

Pros: The location is perfect. The property provided beach chairs.

Cons: The elevators were so slow.

Pros: Our condo was very nice and clean and had everything you needed.

Cons: My only thing I would complain about is the elevator sometime you would wait 45 minites but we planned around the crazy check in time.

Pros: The view was awesome. Was on the 16th floor. The kitchen was nice, it had everything I needed to cook meals if we wanted. Free DVD rentals, one at a time, they had new releases and ones I haven't seen. Indoor pool was nice which we used when it rained.

Cons: When you go plan on bring or buying everything you need like for a camping trip, hand soap, toilet paper, salt, pepper, Dish soap, 13 gallon trash bags, coffee and filters, laundry soap if you use the washing machine, plus tissues. They don't give you anything but one roll toilet paper and NO soap at all. TV sets were very old, NO flat screens in our room. So had to go buy 3 prong cable to hook up my sons Xbox. PLEASE update the TVs. Everyone has flat screens now a days. Real eye sore was the drain down by the beach, brown water was running all over the shore in front of the hotel. They should cover it up or have it drain further out into the ocean. And don't forget the cleaning fee. Don't know why they charge this since you are the one taking out your own trash and washing dishes.

Pros: The property was convenient to shopping, food, and family activities! It had a beautiful view and was very clean!

Cons: I didn’t have any dislikes!!!

Pros: There isn't anything that deserves a recognition at this resort. I won't be recommending it

Cons: Roaches in the kitchen sink everytime you went to use it, which is very disgusting and the elevators were horrible. I felt like we spent most of our vacation waiting to get on or off of them. The price you pay to stay here you would think more elevators could be installed.

Pros: The staff was nice and helped when asked.

Cons: The wait for the elevator's were horrible. Also the furniture was not comfortable in my room.

Pros: We enjoyed the ocean view and the location of the condo.

Cons: The elevators are absolutely terrible. It’s a lot of walking and waiting. The beach is extremely crowded since the condominium is so large. I wouldn’t say the condo is dirty but it has so many people through it that it looks very worn. Needs new paint and more attention. The real kicker of disappointment for us— we had another family walk in on us. When we called the front desk, the staff member was very rude to us and did not even apologize. She said that a security member gave our entry code to this family checking in. By the time management called (she was nice), another story was told. We were blamed, saying our door was ajar. Be sure to lock your doors!

Pros: Location was great!

Cons: Top complaint is having to wait 30+ min for an elevator. Our condo needed some TLC. Ice maker was turned off with no ice in it. When packed with families attending a softball tournament probably a good idea to turn it on prior to arrival. Service at onsite restaurant was horrendous. Appeared they only had two staff members to wait on tables, seat guests, and bus tables. Our waitress never returned to our table after delivery of food and was found bar tending when we went to figure out how to pay our bill.

Pros: The location is close to all the great food but far enough that your not caught up in traffic, and the view was beautiful.

Cons: The only drawback to the stay would be the wait time on the elevators.

Cons: I received confirmation number for reservation. When I got to resort I was told that I didn't have a room. And of course everybody blamed someone else for problem. No email, no notification, nothing. Just no room.

Pros: grand daughter liked the water park

Cons: terrible sofa-bed nasty and worn out . leaking sink, toilet and shower door would not shut. chair old and worn out. microwave broke. ice maker doesn't work. overpriced. beach chairs not included.

Pros: Beautiful room and view, excellent amenities

Cons: The food out couch was terrible! No one could sleep on it. It could probably be considered dangerous.

Cons: Not enough supplies for a family of 6 for 4 nights. Unit not very clean and needed work. Check in was annoying.

Pros: Pools

Cons: As soon as we got there it was like a mad house . The elevator situation was awful. Truly underestimated the need for more elevators. The room was not clean . Floors were sandy . The decorations were very dusty the TVs were dirty . Speaking on the TVs they were very old and picture of the TVs were awful . Bar chairs and furniture was very rough looking . Couch bed was very very uncomfortable. And no extra blankets for couch bed . Food stains on the curtain to patio . Refrigerator freezer kept freezing up. Not to mention the small appliances look like they came from goodwill 10 yrs ago . Both bathrooms had leaking toilets and moldy grout. There was mold on vent in ceiling as u first come in . Overall that unit needs help !! I will never stay at a resort again this was first time and last .

Pros: Bed was good.

Cons: Construction. Very cheap kitchenware.

Pros: Our stay was perfect The pool and water park was awesome Easy access to parking deck and walkway

Cons: The back up beeper on a truck that kept me up from 1:00-5:30 in the morning

Pros: On beach. Gas grills to cook while at pool. Great place for kids

Cons: Our hotel room was not as updated as some. But best view! Elevator quit working. Had to take stairs but thankfully on 3rd floor

Pros: I liked that it was a private beach access. However, the beach and water were nasty. Lots of trash cans in from water/ocean. Pools had to be closed on different days due to kids having accidents and not wearing proper diapers. Our room was gorgeous and so was our view.

Cons: Tons and tons of kids! Pool and hot tub were always overloaded with kids!!

Pros: Convenient to the beach

Cons: I kept having problem with one tv other than that everything was great

Pros: When we arrived there was our original room at had a smell we didn't Identify other than mildew. we called they sent maintenance Supervisor named John showed up an he was amazing. only took him minute to identify problem call office and they agree to move us. Because our inlaws were to stay in same place they agree to move us all to Grand Panama in a 2 room and it was beautiful loved the resort. They even followed up call with us the next day to make sure we were doing good. When you go on vacation you want the time to be valuable and this team made sure it was. highly recommend Emerald View Resorts that team was awesome!! We rent from them again!!!

Cons: Orgin room was small dirty but the team fixed every thing and was great.

Pros: Location was great! Right across from Sharkys. Bed was super comfy!

Cons: Our unit had VERY old living room and dining room furniture that was NOT comfortable and even the chairs were ripped. Like someone’s old thrift store find (and I’m not against thrift store bargains) but this was real bad. The curtain in the bedroom was hanging off the curtain rod and pieces of the clips were in the floor. Had to use the nightstand to hold it close to the wall so it would be closed.

Cons: The faculty was very rude and kept saying you didn’t book from us and since you didn’t book from us you will have to park in overflow tonite and the carpet in our room was the dirtiest place we have ever stayed at I let the lady at grand Panama know she said she would tell them this was in our second day of stay plus the elevator went out and we were down to one will never stay at this place again or recommend it to anyone else complete waste of hard earned money

Pros: that its right across from the beach.

Cons: no

Pros: The location

Cons: The appliances were broke.

Pros: The proximity to the event i was attending

Cons: The room was not maintained. There were stains in the carpet. There were spots on the walls that had been painted. The furnishings were cheap and outdated.

Pros: I liked the location, the cleanliness & the pool was awesome, everything on the strip was walking distance!!!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location was perfect, it’s not right on the water but one street behind, still having a partial view of the beach, there’s a small shop downstairs for beaxh related things and then a small coffee shop for drinks and ice. The security people are super nice.

Cons: I booked with booking.com to the Origin resort which was reserved through Emerald view resorts which is 2 miles down and I had to go there to get my papers/ check in and key code and even if I needed extra towels I had to go there. The first unit was dirty with garbage under the sofa bed- the musky smell was terrible, I never complain but I was not gonna have a headache for 3 days, I called and they moved me to unit 1108 which was cleaner & didn’t smell but was missing the winning room chairs which they brought in after they called me to see if this unit was OK. Kitchen had ONE glass ONE wine glass- 2 plates.. I didn’t cook but again it would’ve been annoying to go to the other location for basic stuff.. Bring earplugs because things get loud in the pool and the street is always busy. ALSO the TVs are very old and if u have kids u cannot connect their Xbox!!

Pros: Nothing! I stayed last year but booked straight through the hotel, so our room was clean and we had pretty good service. This year was the opposite!! Never coming back here!!

Cons: Everything, I come to check in and the lady in the front seemed annoyed by me. Telling me you didn’t book through us, so I can’t give you a key. Later gives me a number to call, I message the number and they give me a room number and a code to enter. The room smelled like cigarettes, was dirty and the bed was not done. The pillows literally looked like someone slept on them and just left the room. I message the number again, they switch our room, but it was honestly no better. The bathroom had mold, the bath faucet handle was broken and wobbly so it was hard to turn on and off water. It would turn to the left and one would have to move it up and down to find an okay temperature with a wobbly handle. There was hair all over shower walls when we came in our room. The furniture was super old and dirty. The bar stools had the faux leather ripped off!! The outdoor furniture was just falling apart!! Photos will show how bad everything was! We had to go and purchase blankets to sleep on and put over the furniture. It was gross! And there were yellow spots all over the curtains, as if someone urinated on them. Also, there is no light in the living room nor the bedroom. We had to open the bathroom door to get light into the room at night! You can’t ask anything at the front desk because they just tell you, you didn’t book through us, call the number. No towels and toilet paper are given if needed more. And when calling or messaging the number the hotel gave me, the number gives me another number to call, which is weird and rude. Nothing is explained about the hotel if this would’ve been your first time, you would be lost. Also, when we came into the second room they gave us, a sales lady came in to show our unit because it’s “for sale.” Not sure how many times they came back after, because we would leave early morning and would come back late evening. If a unit is for sale and is doing showings why are they giving it out as a vacation rental?!

Pros: Security was present, but I felt like even though I wasn't doing anything wrong that I was going too get in trouble.

Cons: -The elevator situation, yes there are 4 of them, but you had to wait majority of the time. - Not that we had kids with us, but no one 12 or under could be in the hot tub. - Lighting in our condo was not the best, there was one lamp in the bedroom.

Pros: The room was nice, the view was pretty good. I would have rather had a beach front view. But it was good.

Cons: I didn’t like that when I got in the room the drain in the shower was clogged with some nasty stuff and wouldn’t drain. Was told the drain would get cleaned a day later. Wasn’t impressed with that and demanded it get resolved sooner, renting a room I couldn’t shower is wasn’t gonna work. One of the towels in the bathroom was stained with some brown stuff. So we didn’t use that one. The elevators stink really bad. But other then that the stay was good.

Pros: It was really nice and comfortable no problems at all we had everything we needed in our room!!!

Cons: Nothing it was great!
