Panama City sits on the shore of St. Andrew Bay in the Florida Panhandle, a working waterfront town just inland from the sugar-white sand and emerald water that draw crowds to the coast. The Best Western Plus Panama City Hotel makes a comfortable base in Panama City, Florida, a short drive from downtown, the Marina Civic Center, and the beaches of the Gulf. Clean, comfortable rooms give you a restful place to land after a day at the beach, each with a flat-screen TV, microwave, and refrigerator. A free breakfast opens the morning, free parking sits right outside, and a dip in the pool cools off a warm Panhandle afternoon. Sugar-white sand, the bay, and the state park's trails all sit within easy reach. Book a room and let the Gulf coast set the pace. St. Andrews State Park, on the point nearby, pairs calm-water beaches with jetty fishing and dunes.
