I'm a wordsmith, Miami native, mom of two boys and a die-hard Floridian with one pair of closed-toed shoes. We hit the road when the school bell rings to explore everything from citrus tours and sandy shores to toddler-friendly fun and teen-approved thrills. If you're looking for the perfect Florida for your family, you'll find hundreds of ideas right here - from a mom who knows.

Panama City Beach Rated #5 Best Family Beach In America

June 10, 2009

Panama City Beach has been rated the #5 Best Family Beach In America by the Travel Channel. And it’s no surprise to those of us who have had the pleasure of enjoying its 27 miles of white sand.
 
Learn more about this paradise along Florida’s Emerald Coast by reading the entire article about Panama City Beach at Travel Channel.com. And here's the link to the top ten family beaches.
 
While on Panama City Beach, your family can do more than sun on the sand and play in the water. There is much to do in this beach town like Gulf World Marine Park and the Coconut Creek Family Fun Park.
 
For the ideal accommodations, check out Holiday Inn Sun Spree Resort. Here’s what the Travel Channel had to say about it: “It may not be as elaborate as the Sun Spree Resort near Disney World (which features Sesame Street suites), but the Holiday Inn Sun Spree is just as kid-friendly. During summer, children are invited to a 'Kids Night Out,' where the Sun Spree activities crew entertains them with pizza and a Disney movie. It costs only $10 and gives parents the chance to enjoy their own night out. The hotel mascot, Splash the Dolphin, offers a special kids turn-down service. Splash will tuck the little ones in at bedtime and bring them milk and cookies for a late-night treat. Kids can also enjoy beach games and supervised activities. All 340 oceanfront rooms have two queen-size beds, refrigerators and microwaves. Children under 12 stay free and eat free in the hotel restaurant when accompanied by an adult.”
 
How can you go wrong with glorious beaches, family friendly entertainment and a resort that entertains kids and pleases parents, too? Sounds like the perfect summer getaway. See you on Panama City Beach!
