Panama City
Beach, situated along the
beautiful Emerald Coast
of Florida with sparkling
white sand and gorgeous
azure waters, used to be
the destination of choice
for spring break for college students. It still is,
but after spending a week
there this summer with
my grown daughter and
seven-year old grandson,
I can assure you that it’s a
perfect family destination
as well.
We split our stay between the Bay
Point Wyndham, located a few
miles away from the beach on St.
Andrews Bay, and the Laketown
Wharf Resort, right on the beach.
Both destinations were perfect for
families. A two bedroom villa at the
Wyndham with a kitchenette made
it easy to keep snacks and drinks
available and offered the perfect
sleeping arrangements for our family. With five gorgeous pools, on-site
restaurants, an incomparable spa,
and a world-class golf course, this
resort is an idyllic location. One of
the amenities we enjoyed the most
was their free shuttle out to Shell
Island, an unspoiled and quite lovely National Park located just a few
miles away, where you will probably
see dolphins.
