The breakfast option was horrible! It is all packaged and processed items, rubbery boiled eggs, sour coffee. This non-service will prevent me from staying at this property in the future unfortunately. The harbor view is nice.

I recently stayed t tge Inn with my family and we had booked tge ocean view room which was my best part. However when I took a shower tge said day upon arrival, the bath tub water wasn't going down. I went and reported it to the front desk and they sent maintenance and it was fixed. Another problem that we encountered was ge AC wasn't working properly so we had to play with it until it came on. Overal this hotel is a really nice and relaxing place but the rooms need to be upgraded and cleaned properly.

Absolutely loved they had a service where you could use an app to call for a shuttle to take you to Harborwalk, nearby restaurants, etc.. Super convenient, just make sure you tip your sweet driver! Yes, the building is older, as it's an older hotel.. but the view of the bay from your room and balcony is wonderful! Tons of businesses within walking distance, just be careful crossing the street, it definitely gets busy during peak times. The walls are thin, as I could hear everything in the rooms next to us, but if no one's next to you, there is silence lol The hotel is in a good location, with wonderful views of the busy bay. They had live music by the pool, which I enjoyed sitting on the balcony to listen to.. I would definitely recommend this hotel, especially if you want to be close to Harborwalk and want to stay on that end of Destin! Plus it's pet friendly, so we were able to take the pup!

We haven’t stayed here in over 15 years. It’s in a great location, but for $334/night I guess I expected it to be more clean and less noisy. The loud lobby music played all night- we were close to the lobby so maybe it was easier to hear? The staff was very friendly and hospitable. The beds were comfortable.

This place was amazing for what we needed. Me my wife and 2 daughters (7 and 3) had an amazing time. The rooms are newly renovated and the beds were great. Room was very clean. Its in a convenient area in the middle of pretty much everything you want to do. Dont let the older/high class people reviews. This place is perfect for the budget friendly small family vacation. Staff is amazing also. If youre a drinker, mini bar open in lobby till 4 AM!
