Getaways at Destin Holiday Beach Resort

I like this place. I’ve been coming here for 35 years. you need quality control after the rooms are cleaned up. You need someone to go around inspect them. I mean, they know when the lightbulbs out when they’re missing pillows toasters I can remember when it was a lot better than this. But still, I like the place I come down every year sometimes twice I know you’re trying, but after a year you should have a handle on it. It’s the same thing every year I’m not complaining you asked me a question. I’m giving you the answer.

We were told that they were in the middle of construction but literally right in front of my door there were barriers, dirt, etc. that we could not even have easy access into our front door. If you are going to continue to rent this particular unit wait until your construction is done. I will never revisit this place even though the beaches are incredible. I will just have to find a nicer cleaner resort next time. Just a shame!!!

At check in on Friday we were told that we would have to move to the room next to us on sat. for some odd reason. the room next to us was vacant all day, so we could of just checked in to that room on Friday instead of moving all of our stuff Saturday. The rooms were very spacious but the bed was hard as a rock. I would not use this resort again.

Checked In not only was the pool under construction but they’re renovating the hotel. And I was told that we were moving rooms in the middle of our stay. Prior to moving rooms and check out; I informed front Desk that I would be checking out the following day verse staying. Two different front desk(night before check out and morning of checking out) personnel stated I would be checked out and refunded for the night I didn’t stay. I then called to inform ******* they stated they had to call hotel to confirm that I checked out early in order to process refund; they were having issues with reaching hotel. so I provided check out receipt with clerks information and hotels’ accurate phone number. After 3days I got notification saying I wouldn’t get a refund. I will be contacting my legal team on this matter.

The property had a major renovation project going on since January. There was no notice of this. The men drilled, banged & welded from 8-6 everyday. Definitely not relaxing. It’s a shame too because the property is very nice & the staff are wonderful

This resort is one that caters to vacationing families and middle aged to older folks. In the month of March, it is a very big deal knowing that there is a great resort is better suited for people like myself. Therefore, that means that people like myself can rest easier knowing that we can stay at the resort and enjoy our vacations without having to deal with college spring breakers. I do want to note that when reading previous reviews, I saw some talk about the age of the resort. Me personally, I knew that this is one of the older resorts in the area but they have done a very good job maintaining it and have clearly remodeled it over the years. Yes much of the furniture is not brand new but it has been maintained very well over the years which to me is more important than how new the furniture is. Therefore, the resort has ensured that it is still a great place to stay at regardless of how long it has been since it opened. Overall, it would be nice if the resort could do something in a future remodel to ensure that units are better insulated from the noise from heavy winds. I also wish it would be possible for them to increase the size of the shower in the main bathroom in the units but due to the nature of the unit, it is likely not possible. That being said, neither of those things are deal breakers and if I decide to go back to Destin at some point, this resort would be up towards the top of my list in terms of places where I would want to stay at.
