• View was GREAT, pool well maintained. Beach nice and clean.
• Way over priced for poor quality in the room, back problems from the worn out bed, shower drain clogged, balcony door rotting.

“This Hotel needs work. View was great but not for the price, same price and you get a hotel closer to the entertainment and have a restaurant in the lobby. We had a great time however I had to see my chiropractor as soon as we returned to fix my back from the worn out mattress. The staff didn't even try to help us find restaurants or entertainment, we stumbled across the local flayers when we had to use the ATM machine in the back corner of the lobby. I will be spending my hard earned money at other hotels on my next trip.”

• The beachfront balcony was great. Interior room would be a waste of money.
• No eating places within walking distance.

“The hotel staff was friendly, the hotel was very clean. Beach location was great. We upgraded to a gulf view room at higher cost, and were glad we did. Without the balcony view the rooms would be overpriced. The only drawback is the lack of places to eat close enough to walk. You have to load up the kids in the car to go eat. Not real convenient when you're on the beach. My suggestion is to bring sandwich stuff and eat lunch on the patio by the pool. Overall a great stay.”

• The location of the hotel was perfect, it was right on the beach.
• NA

“Best western beachfront hotel is very nice. If you are looking for a place to go that is located right on the beach, meaning you can walk out the hotels back gate and step on the beautiful white sand. The staff is overall friendly, but if you want an available up-grade don't expect to get it without a heavy price. ”

• Lounge, rooms, balconies.
• General manager's handling of a problem.

“This is a nice hotel, but we will never be back because of the General Manager. A used bar of soap left in the shower gave my husband a nasty fungal disease. (He assumed I unwrapped it.) We were there 3 nights, he got it the day we left, I didn't use the soap: clearly that's how it happened. The GM basically denied that was possible, refused to return phone calls for over a month, never apologized or offered a refund or a free stay, and pretty much called me a liar before hanging up on me. She spoiled what had been a nice, 3-year relationship with an otherwise cool hotel. The conference we went there for won't be back!”

• Complimentary upgrade to beautiful gulf view.
• Color scheme was not pretty.

“Very friendly staff, great location. You will fall in love with the beautiful gulf view. Conveniently located between fort Walton beach and destine. Very clean, needs updated decor but otherwise a great place to stay.”

• Great view of ocean. Clean Beach. Very helpful staff.
• Too pricey No place to get lunch while on beach. should have a sandwich shop so don't have to leave beach and waste sunlight.

“The staff were very helpful and friendly. Had a wonderful view of ocean and clean beach. However, it was a bit pricey considering we had to pay for drinks and there hotel offered nothing to eat at dinner/lunch. During day we would have to pack up all of our things and go eat lunch and then come back. It was inconvenient and a waste of sunlight- especially for the price we were paying. However, it was very clean. Our toilet did stop up the first day there, but the staff quickly came to fix it. While in the lobby the next day, we overheard other visitors requesting that they get their toilets unclogged.”

“This hotel is clean, and the staff are friendly. It is located right on the beach and is priced affordably. The continental breakfast foods were fresh. A convenient walkway bridge connects the pool area to the beach.”
