By the time the resort is complete, there will be three condominium towers, six pools and hot tubs, three fitness centers, four tiki bars, game rooms, grilling areas, a playground, jogging and bicycle paths and even a concert park. Upon completion,the resort will be home, not only to the condominium towers, but also to The Village of Grand Panama which is partially complete at this time. The Village will contain an eclectic mix of retail stores, business space and restaurants. The 55,000 square foot retail center will host upscale gift shops, a jewelry shop with one-of-a-kind pieces, book stores, boutiques, art galleries and more. For those looking for quality accommodations and an all-inclusive resort, Grand Panama Beach Resort in Panama City Beach, FL is just the place.
The idea behind this resort with 240 feet of private beach front is to provide a new era in beach living. They render an upscale luxury community with the reality of permanent or vacation beach residences. Condominium owners that buy into the life style offered by the resort often rent out their units year round, allowing visitors to Panama City Beach to share in the experience.
Grand Panama Beach condos offer one, two and three-bedroom residences. The first tower, The Grand (Tower 1), has 22 gulf front stories and is located right on the beautiful beach of the Gulf of Mexico. Grand Vista (Tower 2) has gulf views with beautiful scenery that can be seen from the balconies. Though not located directly on the beach, the Grand Vista houses the parking garage and has a convenient walkover at level five for guests to reach the sea shores. The third tower that is not yet complete, will be named, Oasis. Each tower is fairly self sufficient with its own fitness center, two pools, two hot tubs and a tiki bar.
With each condominium being individually owned, the furnishings, décor and accommodations may differ. We’re not able to tell you exactly what each condo provides, but in general, you may expect fully furnished kitchens with modern appliances and quality amenities such as granite countertops and multiple televisions with DVD players. The floor plans vary in design and space so be sure to choose one that suits your needs and accommodates your party size.
As a nice touch, the resort provides complimentary DVD’s for guests to enjoy when they need some down time or if the weather is uncooperative. Don’t expect Wi-Fi access in the rooms, though it is available in a few select locations like the business center and pool area.

The building, facilities, friendly service and lush landscape all work together to create the perfect accommodations for your next beach vacation. Convenient onsite parking is provided.

We do have a few tips that may come in handy during your stay.
- If possible, use Hutchison Road or other back roads to reach your destination in order to avoid the bumper-to-bumper traffic of Front Beach Road.
- Traffic gets pretty hairy at night, so if you’re going out, be prepared with lots of patience and allow extra time.
- The luggage carts can be hard to find. If one is not readily available in the lobby or by the elevators, look in the alcove at the concrete pillar over to the left of the elevator doors in the lobby. They tend to hide out there. If all else fails, ask at the front desk.
- The pool in the gulf front The Grand (Tower 1) does get more sun than the other pool, but if it’s really crowded, you might try the the Grand Vista gulf view (Tower #2) pool that is just as nice.
- For groceries and other necessities, there’s a Walmart located near Front Beach and Hutchison.
- Also, look out for the local coupon books for attraction and restaurant discounts. Our list of printable Panama City Beach coupons is a great place to look.
