anna, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property, excellent customer service, clean rooms! I could go on and on about this hotel. We had a wonderful time. If I return to Destin I will definitely be staying at this hotel. My only complaint is having to pay for every single thing at this hotel. For the amount you pay, you should be able to get more things for free during your stay, especially at the beach (ex.beach chairs).
