Room was ok- furniture was old, some electrical outlets didn't work, ironing board was broken, bath tub had a slow drain and we woke up with a back ache every morning from the bed. This was our fifth year vacationing here and each year the quality of stay has declined. I asked for a room higher up this time because... More

The room itself was okay, king bed, full kitchen, living room. it was outdated, the bathroom ceiling "popcorn" was falling off, the phone didn't even have buttons! seriously! we were not pleased to find out the hotel was under construction and our "coastline view" was covered with plastic!! let alone the creepy construction worker smiling as he stared in our...

Sundestin was a nice resort. Beach was great. View from room was awesome. Resort was clean and staff were great. Heated pool and hot tub were small for a resort that size. But we made do. Only real negative was the dryer on our floor sucked. After paying 2 times our clothes were still not dry. Overall a nice stay.

Nice resort, nice staff and nice beach area. Family had a good time and location is good for the Destin area. It is an older complex, but was clean and served the purpose of a nice place to go for spring break. Easy beach access and convenient walk to The Back Porch" restaurant and bar.

Room very small and very dark....absolutely nothin supplied except first trash bags dish soap one roll paper towels two rolls toilet paper two small soap bars... That makes Walmart very happy

I rated this place just average only because its an older complex. Its in a great location and has pretty much everything you need on site. After reading the many complaints about the beach chair situation I was very concerned, luckily the resort was not booked to capacity and it was not so bad. I called ResortQuest & the resort... More

My family and I stayed there recently and it was beautiful. We watched the dolphins in the morning and went swimming in the heated pool at night. My niece is 6 and she loved the arcade and bunk beds. There was plenty of space for the 6 of us plus visitors. The restaurant downstairs was not too bad either.

This year we took a vacation with my mom, sister, my husband, and two small children. We called ahead to make sure we could get a room key late at night for my husband and myself because we worked late. My mom and sister and my kids left ahead of us and got there on time...no problem.

We were a family of 8 and rented #1508. It was clean, well appointed and very spacious, with three bedrooms and 31/2 bathrooms. It was off season (December/January) so the elevators were never busy, which was a blessing seeing we were on the 15th floor. We often had the heated pool or hot tub to ourselves. We did manage to...

We spent a week at Sundestin Beach Resort starting Nov. 10th. It was off season, very view cars in the parking lot, and we didn't see many people at the resort. The weather was very windy and chilly. Two places down at the old Holiday Inn, destruction was happening every day. Didn't really bother us that much. The resort was... More
