Parking !!!!!!

Hello

Just wondering how hard is it to find parking out there.......we are staying in a hotel not to close to the action......I'm assuming parking on the beach is going to be a B***

Thanks for any input

i think in most places in panama city driving on the beach is limited to just lifeguard vehicles and such. but parking shouldnt be too much of a problem if your going down to the action just might have to walk a bit.

plus if you realize parking is a ***** then you can always call a taxi or better yet a limo.

I don't know about the other hotels, but I know that parking at Days Inn is HORRIBLE. They don't have enough parking spots to cover the two hotels (ramada and days inn). THey share the same parking lot. So, most of the time, you'll have to park across the street from the hotel when you're coming home at 4:30 in the morning.

Parking

No private vehicles are allowed on the beach (the actual sand). Most hotels will require you to put a mirror sign in your car to show you are a registered guest (like an armband for your car). If you park in the lot and don't have it, they may tow your car.

Same goes for most places. If you are not staying at the hotel, shopping at the store, partying at the club, your car could be towed. The towing companies make big money on towing cars and there is no amount of complaining, threatening or anything else other than hard cash that will get your car back once they have it.

If you hook up and go to someone else's hotle, check with the desk to see if you can get a visitors parking pass.

They are supposed to post signs at the property to tell you the area is for guests/visitors only, but the bottom line is it is thier property and if they don't want your car thier, it's gone.
