This hotel is incredible! The rooms are large, well-decorated, and clean. The front lobby staff are friendly. You have access to Baytowne Wharf and the private beach. A shuttle is available for both or you can drive. Everything was first-class. We stayed here after staying at JW Marriott Grande Lakes and the room was much better here; cleaner, too! GREAT... more

I travel to the Sandestin area a couple of times a year on business, and tried this hotel the last couple of times. It's an OK business hotel. Good things: Adjacent to the Sandestin resort, where there are good running and walking paths. Free internet. Clean, basic rooms. Free parking. Small workout room. Doesn't feel like a over-used vacation hotel,... more

Booked through Priceline for ~$100 after taxes on Labor Day weekend. Hotel is very nice, clean, and the staff were helpful. We were allowed to check in at 11am! Luckily, rooms were available at that time. Beach is about 1-2mi away. I thought based on the map that it would be very very close to the water, like a block... more

I actually booked this room through Priceline - maybe that's why i didn't receive any requests such as a balcony or pool view room. I was told there were none available. However, there were rooms with no lights on - i feel like they were open. Anyway - my first time in Sandestin was enjoyable. This hotel is very easy... more

We went to Destin for a little R&R for a 2 night stay. I was very disappointed with this hotel, not up to Marriott standards. The rooms carpet was filthy, after the maid came in next day (around 4 pm!) we found sand in both of the beds that night! Really weird since we sure didnt get it there!! We... more

We stayed at this hotel twice on our way to and from Orlando. Both times the staff were helpful and friendly. That was all the staff...front desk, waitresses, bartender and cleaning staff. I had dealings with them all and they were professional and helpful. The decor is very nice and clean. There are blackout curtains...the towels are not dirty and... more

There must be new management at this hotel, but as of right now, I would rate as maybe a 2 star hotel just because it is part of Sandestin. I have stayed at this hotel many times over the years, and it is definitely going down hill. -Upon arriving, I was very polite with front desk manager, and he was... more

Usually the tripadvisor ratings are spot on, but you guys missed this one by a mile. I have no idea how this hotel is ranked number 2 in Destin, especially at $200 per night.. I would never go back to Destin if all the "other" hotels are ranked lower than this one. 1. The breakfast staff was a joke. We... more

Okay, I hate to post a negative review. But I just have to set the record strait here, seeing how this hotel comes in at the top of the list. ????? First thing I noticed is that the 'attractiveness' factor of our room was NON existant. NO thought to interior design, at all. I am talking an awful camel/orangey carpet...... more
