Our stay was exceptional, exactly as listed online.
Pros:

Everything was very nice, loved the activities for the small children and easy access to the beach. The lady that cleaned the rooms on the second floor was exceptional. She was very nice, smiled and a great asset to the hotel. I really like the armbands that we purchased that would also open our room, made things so easy not having to keep up with a room key.

Cons:

Construction, I know that it is necessary but it was a huge inconvenience getting out of the hotel to the main road. Parking - due to construction equipment and vehicles it was challenging at times finding parking for a large suv.

They did move us to a room with balcony city view it a big disappointment as we like to sit on the balcony and look at the ocean I will not ever book a stay there again or go through booking.com.

Relaxing and perfect
Pros:

I love that it’s right in the beach, great location from the airport and close enough to all the great food in Destin without being in the middle of Destin

Cons:

Due to road construction it’s a pain to make a left a left out of the property but that is not their fault. Otherwise nothing that I don’t like about the property!

Necesitan mejorar el personal del restaurante
Pros:

Excelente habitaciones e instalaciones. Piscina grande y la playa súper cerca, justo saliendo del hotel

Cons:

Muy poco personal para atender el restaurante, esperas demasiado largas solo para sentarte a ordenar la comida y luego esperar mil horas por la comida

Amazing
Pros:

This hotel is wonderful, it's clean, well appointed, and the food is good. The thing that takes it over the top is the staff. They are wonderful and have amazing customer service!

Cons:

I don't like booking.com. I didn't realize they aren't transparent with information. I needed to change this reservation and I understand that it was not refundable, but Booking sent me to the hotel, they explained to me that they are not able to change ANYTHING about reservations made through booking.com. It bothers me that booking.com wasn't transparent with the information.
