I had a pretty nice stay overall at the Inn at Destin Harbor. The location is right on the harbor with stunning views, and we even spotted dolphins from our balcony! The rooms were clean and spacious, and the staff went out of their way to be accommodating. However, there were some downsides like noise from the lobby during the mornings and a need for better soundproofing. Additionally, it's clear that the hotel is still undergoing renovations, so things aren't perfect yet.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the staff, especially Tony and Shanell, were incredibly helpful and considerate, going out of their way to assist me during my tiring journey. However, the cleanliness and overall state of the hotel left much to be desired. The rooms were not cleaned thoroughly, with visible dirt and discomforting odors. While the location was decent, I wouldn't recommend this hotel based on my overall experience.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is fantastic, right by the harbor, and the staff were welcoming and attentive. However, the room left a lot to be desired, with many issues that detracted from our stay. Overall, the hotel could be a great spot for families, but it needs some serious upgrades in the room department.

I had a fantastic time at the hotel with a great location right on the harbor, allowing for stunning views and easy access to activities. The rooms were clean and quite spacious, but the sound insulation wasn't the best, which made for a few noise disturbances during my stay. The amenities offered like paddleboarding and kayaking were an awesome bonus. However, the breakfast could use a little more variety.

We enjoyed our stay with stunning harbor views and a comfortable room. The staff was pleasant and there were plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. However, the property does show signs of aging, and the pool wasn't in the best condition. The stairs to the pool can be quite challenging, especially for those with mobility issues.
