Why Should You Stay Here?

Our Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort map will help give you an idea of our proximity to the beach, the size of the Resort, and how many fun amenities we have here for you to enjoy.
Resort Map

Planned family games and contests and seasonal live shows means nobody will be getting bored here. Sunset s'mores, games and contests, and Polynesian Fire Dancing Shows are just the start...
Activities

Staying here also gives you lots of planned things to do here for kids and families. In addition to our amenities, we also plan games and contests and other fun ways to spend a few hours!
Entertainment

Between the on-site amenities and the additional planned family activities, you can be as active as you like, or relax and lay out all day. Most things are included in the price of your stay!
Kid's Entertainment

We have guest services, housekeeping and maintenance staff on-hand around the clock, 365 days per year to make sure you always have everything you need during your stay.

You don't have to put your vacation on hold and leave the Resort when you are hungry. That's because we have two great places to eat right here, as well as a very cool Ice Cream Shop!
On-Site Places To Eat

The Wild Rapids water slide offers even more splashing fun! Perfect for the smaller / younger family members in the group, this is a great water slide, and even has a little twist at the end!
Waterslides

Take a break from the heat of the sun and let the kids come and make a splash riding the indoor slide. Perfect for the smaller Sandpiper guests... Located right next to the indoor Lazy River ride.

Having WiFi is almost as important as a swimming pool! We don't think you should have to pay extra for it though. You have our permission to post selfies on the beach all day long, and make all your friends jealous!

A safe, enclosed area sat right on the beach for the little ones. Swings, slides, and beachside forts located right next to the Beachside Deli and the Tiki Bar.

Nothing is better at helping you cool off on a hot sunny day at the beach than one (better make that two) scoops of delicious hand-made ice cream! Or try one of our awesome milkshakes made by hand with your choice of ice cream flavors! Frozen Yogurt & Sorbet also available. Seasonal hours may vary.
Ice Cream Shop

Test your skill, and see who's the family champion with a fun game of shuffleboard on the back deck. Plus you get incredible views of the Beach as you play! You'll find everything you need to play for free in the Lobby.

Join us on the beach for lots of family-friendly games with fun prizes! From the Water Balloon Toss, to Hula Contests & beachside Corn hole, there's something for everyone!

There's no better way to enjoy your quality family time at the beach than roasting S'mores around a campfire. Whether you're 5 or 50 you'll LOVE our Sunset S'mores Family Packs! Gather around the beach fire pit at sunset, we've got your family pack which includes everything you need! Seasonal activity.

The older East-End of Panama City Beach is far more congested with traffic, and newer developments like Pier Park and the Airport are all taking place towards the West. The Sandpiper Beacon is the closest beachfront hotel to the Airport, and just over a mile west of Pier Park, making it a short-drive to all the action, but separate enough to be calm.
