The Long Beach Resort is a favorite of so many vacationers to Panama City Beach for several reasons:
- We have THE BEST FLOOR PLAN on the beach. All bedrooms, living and dining areas in all our floor plans have floor to ceiling windows that capture the incredible Gulf view. No guest feels cheated because they didn’t get the “good” room. So make everyone happy and Long Beach to your list of resorts to check out.
