8/10 Very good

It was a nice homey environment. While the room we stayed in definitely could have used some work, the mom and daughter ( I think ) that run the place are so very kind. The pool area was nice, and overall I would love to go back and would love to see some improvements on the rooms.

10/10 Exceptional

Banana Peel lodge was the perfect getaway stay. The staff was friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the beer pong table and pool area. Staying at BPL was relaxing. We didnt have to worry about a crowded hotel full of your average PCB seasonal beach goers. The house mom was sweet and sassy like an auntie we all have. Loved our stay would be awesome if they had food.

Great location, excellent staff , low noise levels near local attractions needed upgrades on room amenities but I would definitely stay at the property again

8/10 Very good

Staff was friendly. Bed was comfy. Generally fairly quiet. Floors were sticky. AC was inconsistent, temp/fan fluctuated even though it was set to ON, so I kept getting warm and cold.
Wesley, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not worth it.

They offered no room service. Had to go and get amenities for yourself in the front office. No dressers or hangers for clothing items, had to live out of our suitcases. And had a huge ant problem in our bathroom. In the middle of a remodel. The staff was nice on a positive note.

During my stay I enjoyed the short walk to the beach and my walks to and from waffle house was the highlight of vacation

Good but limited parking

Everything was okay except the parking. We checked in on a Saturday and although they advertise free parking, parking was very limited. There are more rooms than there are parking spaces. We had to park in a tow zone the first day there but eventually got to move our car to the hotels parking lot.

Roaches

I checked into Banana Beach Resort in Panama City Beach, FL yesterday, and unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. While the room resembled a small apartment and had potential, it was infested with roaches. This made the stay extremely uncomfortable and unacceptable. I am requesting a refund and, based on this experience, I do not recommend staying here

2/10 Poor

Very misleading nothing I could picture showed had to walk more than 500 ft each way to get to the beach cool was never cleaned out the whole time we was there hair other things floating on top of the water bathroom door half torn off he had to tiptoe to get to the bathroom sink has a homemade basing no microwave no coffee maker $100 deposit extra that was not mentioned when I got there but like I said if you go by the pictures they show very misleading shouldn't be allowed to be a law against it
Scotty, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very simple room for a terrific price. Across the street from large hotel, so short walk to public beach access and maybe 6-7 minutes to the pier. Next door to Pour, an amazing coffee shop. Weak WiFi signal from inside room.
John, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Hotel is extremely run down. Room was covered in sand including the bed. TV had wires hanging out of it and the whole outlet for the TV was ripped out of the wall. The shower was stained and also filled with sand. When I requested a refund the staff dismissed the idea and then continued to try to sell how great the hotel was. After working with Hotels.com I was able to get a refund for 1 night but as of writing this the hotel has not given me my security deposit back. I would not stay here unless it is absolutely necessary. STAY AWAY.

Not the best

The hotel is making a lot of improvements, however it is still kinda ran down. It’s not what I expected, the only plus is it’s across the street from the beach. I would not stay here again.

Definitely is not what it looks to be ! No microwaves in rooms like motel 6

2/10 Poor

It was terrible , it had roaches and it smelled like piss.
shemontis, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

This is the cheapest room we could find so close to the beach. I wasn’t expecting much. The front desk employee was very accommodating. We were missing towel and blankets. There had a mishap with the maids. A couple other rooms were missing towels as well but the manager came later and restocked them. Our room was not swept but everything else seemed clean. There is no microwave but there’s a community one by the office. The outdoor space is nice, it had a lot of action going on on the front street but the community area felt safe. I’ve definitely experienced worse. But of course, better as well. For the price compared to the others is was what we needed, a safe place to sleep and shower.

Disappointing misled stay - would not recommend

Our experience at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The room looked nothing like the pictures advertised online — it felt like we had walked into a completely different place. When we arrived, we discovered there were no blankets, no soap, and not even a toilet paper holder in the bathroom. We asked the front desk for blankets and were told they would bring them, but no one ever followed through, which made our stay even more uncomfortable. The floors looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in ages, and there was only one usable outlet near the bed— very inconvenient for charging devices or using any electronics. We expected at least the basic necessities and a clean, functional space, but unfortunately, those expectations were not met. Overall, we were very dissatisfied with our visit and would not recommend this hotel to others.

The lady that checked me in was great & as I was traveling on a motor-scooter allowed my to bring my bike close to the room. This is an amazing hotel for an even better price. Near the ocean, area is a bit sketchy but didn’t have any issues as a single woman. I love that it has the old-Florida vacation vibe (high-end hotels have their perks, but I’d rather have a laid back- simple Florida hotel any day.

We had a wonderful experience. They upgraded is to their best room which has lots of space and a beautiful view. The staff was incredibly helpful.We liked it so well, we stayed 4 nights instead of 1. They are set to do some remodeling in the near future.
