This hotel was the most bang for our buck! Beautiful balcony facing ocean. Love small kitchen. The room is Plain room but clean. We Like separate sink from bath and toilet so two can get ready at once.

This hotel is Very Clean, family friendly, beautiful view on the beach with friendly staff. Snack/ drink bar is great. Nice full kitchens in all rooms. Movie nights w free popcorn. Nice heated pool and hot tub. We stayed during the end of spring break but this hotel seemed to not have any spring breakers. Quiet at night.

Maybe it was due to it being springbreak but the staff was not nearly as friendly as years past. They threw away a box of ours that had misc.supplies in it. When we asked the maid about this, she was very short about it and basically blew my wife off. At the end of our stay we inquired about a... More

Thank you for taking the time to tell us of your experience. We take pride in our friendly and helpful staff, I am sorry we disappointed you. We did offer a coupon which could be redeemed for a T-shirt. Unfortunately, the clerk you spoke to would have needed to see the coupon on your phone, laptop, or printed copy to... More

The Osprey is a very family friendly and safe feeling hotel. We stayed during Spring Break week and it was not loud. It is a beautiful home owned hotel. The staff is friendly and they are easy on the pocket book as well.... great deals and very good to repeat customers. The Osprey is a winner in my book.

Osprey Motel is currently the #2 rated hotel in Panama City Beach on Trip Advisor. Trip Advisor is normally great to find top rated hotels but we were totally steered wrong with this motel. We checked in, went to the room, walked back down to the lobby, and checked out. We were willing to lose our non refundable deposit. Yes,... More

Well, I am back and a bit late in writing my reviews. We had our wedding in October and drove from Texas to PCB. I booked us into the Osprey based on reviews and one of my customers that recently stayed there too. Wow, we were trying to budget our money and still have a nice honeymoon. The Osprey really...

I stayed here for only one night not knowing it had extended stay amenities. I found the room to be very clean and very well maintained and updated for an older place. The staff was super helpful and friendly. The view was amazing and access to the beach was right out the back door. Walking distance to pier park and... More

We've been coming to PCB for many years and would NOT consider staying anywhere but here with the Gilmore Family. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. We have met friends here and look forward to coming every Spring and Fall. The 'chowder' on Wednesday is fantastic.
