Best Things About the Resort:


Resort Experience:
Prior to our visit I tried to contact the resort a few times and my initial contact experiences were not very pleasant. Check-in was similarly unpleasant, but the rest of our stay was wonderful.

The unit was beautiful, but I would have liked prior occupants’ finger/handprints to have been cleaned away from the doors and trim prior to our arrival.

Another guest let us know about the standard resort breakfast meeting which was to be held the morning after our arrival. I was surprised we weren't invited to come to this meeting when we checked in. The host and hostess of this meeting were very friendly and the meeting was warm, inviting and informative.

Overall, we had a wonderful stay at the Ocean Towers, but there were certain amenities which we've come to expect which were sadly missing.

The week we stayed there was the last week in February and the weather was mostly stormy and cold. The season starts the first week of March so many places weren't open. The resort advertises that it provides beach chairs, but this wasn't true. The chairs do not arrive until March.

Panama City and its beaches seem like a wonderful place to visit after the tourist season starts.

This course is laid out beautifully and was a fun golfing experience. Their website has a great description: "Discover sparkling waterfalls and mysterious hideouts of pirates as ye putt around historical markers of pirates in a lush tropical setting with a cool sea fog."
