A small minded, racist town with unreliable service infrastructure and underhanded business practices. The hotel we booked lied about being beachfront. Getting a taxi/Uber/Lift takes up to 30 minutes…Full review by Anna Z

This was a nice beach and it wasn't very packed either. The people were friendly and the waters were pretty. I would recommend taking your family here.Full review by ashleeey_hall

BEST Beach in the United States, Highly recommend for anyone wanting lots of Sun and Fun ! The Water is A beautiful Emerald Green and a Must See.Full review by donaldrJ4853GB
Thinking of going in March with our young kids for spring break. Is this a total party place for college kids or can we find some enjoyment still without party goers?
A:
I have been there many times, and I have seen more families than partying young people. Maybe the cost keeps the party animals away .
Soo I have a question! I’m leaving for the beach soon and I’m conflicted. I just turned 21 and I have found it extremely difficult to make an appointment with any dmv due to them being so busy. Meaning, I still have my vertical ID. I was told that if I do get it changed they will give me a temporary paper ID with my old ID attached to it, someone told me they had issues with the paper ID in Florida. So I guess my question is would anyone know if I would have troubles with my vertical ID in Florida? Of course I’m a worry wart and want to make sure I have everything together before traveling. Thanks.
A:
I am sorry, but I don't have an answer for that. It has nothing to do with the motel. Sorry!
I have never gone to Panama city beach I am visiting for 4th of july I would like to know if there is a spot where there ppl going wild like for us young adults for beaches I want to party party what would be the best spot for this
A:
Tiki Bar at the Sandpiper is hot spot during spring break. I'm sure it will be on the weekend of the 4th. I have been told that Sharky’s Beach Bar is good one. Be careful and have fun!
