Wonderful location, great area, perfect amenities, super pleasant staff and a perfectly clean room. I had to move to this property after the other Marriott I was staying at near Eglin had sold out. I was not too happy about the move since it'd now be a 45 minute drive instead of 5 minutes to the base. Upon check in I was greeted by a super pleasant front desk team, Maria was one who stood out. She helped me whenever I needed it although I tried to not worry her too much for my random requests.

The breakfast staff was very attentive, never letting anything run out, making sure the guests were happy and had everything they needed. I felt like I was being waited on hand and foot, honestly. I was not even "needy", but the staff wanted to make sure EVERYONE was satisfied before they even needed to say a word or ask for anything. Excellent customer service, this is very hard to come by, even at Marriotts.

The convenient location was a major plus. After checkout at 11am, I went down to the side shops and walked along the outlets (which are fabulous by the way if you love to shop) and I even went to the beach. I had to kill time until about 4pm, so there was PLENTY to do. This hotel is definitely worth the drive, money, or whatever it takes! I have to say it's one of the best Residence Inns I've ever stayed at. I would love to come back and visit if I am in the area again. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!

It started with a welcome at the front desk, then i was given a luggage cart as soon as i asked. The new carpet makes the entire hotel feel so fresh and new. There was easy access to both ends of the hotel, elevator worked well, no long waits.
The morning breakfast offered has something for everyone, it was a very nice free breakfast, again the staff working the breakfast could not have been more helpful.
There is a pool right next to hotel, with a small basketball court, all of which are kept up very nicely.
The location was great for eating at San Destin or the Grand Blvd, and a quick trip to Seaside is so close when you stay here in San Destin.
I think this Marriott is a very good deal for your money.

Easily one of the best Residence Inns I have ever stayed at in my numerous business and personal trips.

The rooms are very nice and recently renovated.

The entire staff was friendly and genuinely seemed to care about the guest comfort.

Was glad to see that most of the channels on the 37" LG HDTVs were actually in hi-def. In addition since Destin is a family destination, they have wisely made sure children's channels like Cartoon Network, Disney and Nickelodeon are included.

My husband and I went to get a little sun and relaxation. This place was just what the doctor ordered. Staff was very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. Our room was very modern warm and inviting.Complimentary breakfast had a great selection. We wil be returning.
