Would not stay again
Pros:

Location

Cons:

In need of investment and renovation
Breakfast was dire, should not be included as an option as you have to microwave everything, no fruit and water jar only filled once a day.
The pool needs to be sorted, does not look like been cleaned thoroughly for a long time.
Seems to be understaffed and they did not seem to have much knowledge of the local area.

Please do better before yall get shut down.
Pros:

I really like the view the area by the pool and the pool, but was nasty as well.

Cons:

When I entered the room I noticed the floors wasn't clean, the sheets wasn't changed they smelled bad so they moved us to another room we settled in but then got ready to nap there were stains on the sheets hair, chairs nasty, house keeping didn't dust and later that day we saw roaches, the hall floor filthy,pool was extremely nasty tub stopped up and so is the sink. I have never seen nothing like this in my entire life and on top of that the prices high.

Pros:

We loved the balcony view of the harbor and watching the boats come and go. Also super close and walking distance to our crab island boat excursion and our dolphin/snorkle cruise so that saved us money and a headache trying to find parking!

Cons:

Everything was wonderful, we will be back!

HORRIBLE
Pros:

Nothing it was horrible!!!!

Cons:

No handicap accessible!!! elevators was broke the whole time!! Wouldn't put us on the floor level so my dad as a war veteran who served our military who has an amputated leg had to climb the steps to even get to our floor the whole 2 day stay was horrible!! No extra towels didnt even come clean the room or give fresh towels!! Worst stay ever in Destin!!! I paid almost $750 for the 2 nights for this crap!!! I would never recommend this place to no one!!!!!
