Grand Panama Beach Resort - PET Friendly by Panhandle Getaways

Room 706, tower 1, had a small room and the parking garage wasn't to my liking. The front bedroom's bed was the worst I've slept on, and I woke up with back pain every morning. The AC was awful too, the room stayed hot.

The balcony views of the beach and pool were beautiful from both the 17th and 10th floors, and we've loved our rooms on two trips with family and friends. One thing to consider: if you're bringing lots of beach chairs and toys, a lower floor may be easier. Carrying all that down to the beach every day can be a hassle.

Housekeeping and maintenance kept things in good shape, with the pools and facilities cleaned every day. We booked through blue swell vacation rentals, and it was our first visit. The space worked really well for our family of six, including our teenagers. It's a great spot close to everything, and we had a great week. We'll be back.

We stayed in 1101 in tower 1, and I'd come back. The grounds were well maintained and the location was great. The pool and hot tub heaters both went down during our stay, but they had everything working again within 24 hours, which impressed me. The elevator situation was frustrating: there are only three for 22 floors, and one had been broken all month. I also wish staff had enforced the pool chair rules more. Nearly every chair had a towel on it whenever we went, but hardly anyone was actually there using them. Some units aren't as nice, so be careful about who you book through.
