The breakfast was decent for continental style. The bed was very comfortable, and we enjoyed the view very much. My husband became ill, and they staff was very accommodating to allow us to check out a day early and refund the last nights charge. We so enjoyed listening to the music Friday night by the pool. Disappointed they didn't have Saturday night as well.

We had some issues with the Toilet, but my husband got it fixed. One night it sounded like washers and dryers were going all night. Sink in bathroom was small but was acceptable.

The location is excellent, the view is outstanding, (get a harbor view room) the rooms are clean and comfortable. Easily walk-able to the Harbor View marina and several top notch restaurants and a very short drive to some of the best beaches.

Room 316 needs a few items taken care of. The tub does not drain properly, by the end of your shower you're standing in ankle deep water. The sink faucet also has problems being properly shut off. The hotel is built on a very small lot and is very "vertical", mobility is a must, there are lot of stairs involved in any/all activities.

Hotel is upbeat with beautiful colors. I had room over looking harbor which made for awesome view of boats, birds, dalphins even! Personel charming, helpful , wonderful. Oh, very clean also.

No indication where to go when you get off elevator to find room. You face options of stairs going down & stairs going up. Well there is also a door there. When you are tired it can be a bit confusing. Maybe a sign placed on these doors "TO ROOMS" may help some.

Perfect view of the harbor area! Everything was clean and the bed was super soft with four pillows!!! The property is also close to excellent restaurants with one being right next door (like walking distance, no roads to cross etc!)

The shower tub felt like a bit odd like stepping into an eggshell shape but other then that it was nice

Arrival was great! Having a bar in the lobby was also great! The location is fantastic and the being on the water is even better. We were supposed to be arriving by boat, but weather had other plans, but definitely will be back to stay by boat!

I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE! No complaints at all and everything was fantastic! LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!!! This place was PERFECT!

We had a group of 7. Breakfast was great. The decks overlooking the water, pool and the bar were great to hang before and after exploring the area. The bartendar was so much fun. Great Location!!!! Center for the local night entertainment. Able to walk to most nightclubs.

Can't think of anything. Airbnb host canceled on us the Saturday before we were to arrive in Destin on Thursday. The people at the Inn had rooms and were so accommadating to our needs. And a plus, it was Cheaper!!!!

Besides the fact that we couldn’t make our sunset cruise because of the check in line was super long and that we couldn’t get the tv to work until a staff member came in to fix it. Everything was good I highly recommend this resort to stay at!!

I liked the location overlooking the harbor. the rooms were nice and comfortable and clean. the staff was very helpful

the deck furniture was pretty hard and uncomfortable. other guests were yelling outside our room at 3 am, another one was banging loudly on their door right next to us at 7 am and woke us all up- I know that’s out of your control though.
