When you’re on vacation, keeping the whole family entertained can be a challenge, even at the beach. That’s what makes a spot like Panama City’s Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort unique.

“All year round, we focus in a big way on providing a family-friendly environment right here on the beach, with so many planned activities and amenities that you never have to leave during your vacation,” said a spokesperson for Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort. “Many other hotels are ‘just a place to stay,’ whereas the value you get by staying here lies in the fact that you have it all right at your doorstep. That is why we are known as the ‘Fun Place!’”

This pet-friendly beachfront resort offers guests a wide choice of accommodation options, including Panama City Beach condos and villas with views of the Gulf. Other lodging choices at the Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort include hotel rooms, with or without a kitchen, and two- and three-room suites. The three-room suites sleep up to ten people. All units can be customized to meet specific budgets.

Among the resort’s other amenities are seasonally heated indoor and outdoor pools, an indoor lazy river ride, mini-golf, beach volleyball courts, shuffleboard, barbecue grills and a children’s playground right on the beach. Sandpiper guests also enjoy access to a large beachside stage in the Tiki Bar, where you can see live bands play, watch the Polynesian fire dancing show, and take part in the fun beachside games and contests. Planned activities, which vary with the season, include karaoke, face painting, scavenger and treasure hunts, arts and crafts, water balloon tosses, hula lessons, bingo and more!

A deli, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and a Tiki Bar are also located on the resort’s beach, so you can eat or enjoy a cocktail without having to change out of your bathing suit and leave the property. There’s an onsite rental service for lounge chairs, umbrellas, Jet Skis, and other water sports equipment as well.

Guest services, including housekeeping and maintenance, are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Also on the premises for guests’ convenience is a coin-operated laundry facility.

Of course, all of Panama City Beach’s many attractions are just a short drive away. Shopping, dining, and entertainment at popular Pier Park are right down the road. And in the spring and fall, Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort is one of the official venues for the Thunder Beach Motorcycle Rally. The Sandpiper Beacon and Tiki Bar is also a popular destination for College and high School Spring Break in Panama City Beach.
