We were told by the hotel staff when we booked the hotel that it was only a "3 minute" walk to the beach. Maybe if you are in great shape, have nothing to carry and no small children. It was more like an 8 - 10 minute walk and through a very narrow boardwalk - where at times you were... More

My husband and I along with another couple decided to go to Destin, FL for the weekend. We took our children and had a great time. The hotel was in a great location. It was in walking distance of many attractions such as the beach, the outlet mall (located directly across the street), Hard Rock Cafe and surrounding shopping stores,... More

Rooms were of ok size, but did in fact stink, comparable to wet carpet. Had MAJOR ant problem and had to buy OWN ant baits/sprays.- was given small room discount, however because of it. Continental breakfast was nice, but eating space was small and overcrowded. Price reasonable, but for Destin, Florida, this hotel was under par.

We just returned from four nights at the Ramada Limited. I have to disagree with the other reviews posted here. Our room was large, with a small sitting area separated from the beds by a half-wall. It was very comfortable and clean (the most important thing to me!). It is about a seven minute walk to the beach, but it... More

Room was large, we asked for nonsmoking, room was posted nonsmoking, but it reeked of smoke. Carpet was sticky, we wore shoes the whole time. Pool was VERY small, deepest end was about 4 1/2 feet, so kids were disappointed. It doesn't really sit directly on the beach, you must walk on a boardwalk to get to the beach, but... More

Paid for 3 nights but stayed only two of those. Had NO view from the window and the door to our "balcony?" (app. 2ft. wide) wouldn't open without working really hard on it for awhile. The carpet felt so damp we had to wear shoes while in the room. The staff was friendly but that was the only plus that... More
