8. Beachfront bungalow near Pier Park (from 225 USD)
Fall is when the crowds begin to dwindle, making Panama City Beach a quiet haven for rest and relaxation. This beach house in Panama City Beach is just a stone’s throw from a nearby shopping mall, Pier Park, which is one of the fun things to do besides visiting the beach. This single-story bungalow features an open-concept living space and a full kitchen, so bring some ingredients to cook meals. The cozy living room offers the place to lounge - recline on the L-shaped sofa or watch some cable TV. Allow the king-sized bed in one of the three bedrooms to lull you into sweet dreams during your stay. When you’re ready for the beach, head out the back door where a path through some shrubs leads to sugary sands, crystal waters, and, by sunset, magnificent views. Take note of weather conditions in the fall; while temperatures are still high enough for a dip in the ocean, hurricane season also peaks at this time. Nevertheless, you can expect less rain and more agreeable weather.

Guests can enjoy sweet dreams on the king-size bed. Since one of the best things to do in Lake Powell is fish, why not reel in your catch and prepare a home-cooked meal in the ebony-lined kitchen? After your meal, head out to the balcony to enjoy a view of the forest and lake. To get to the dock, descend the stairs and explore the area. If you wish to travel to other parts of Panama City Beach, drive three minutes to Camp Helen State Park, or six minutes to Rosemary Beach.
