Wyndham Garden Fort Walton Beach Destin
Positives: You can't beat the location and the view. The room was very clean upon arrival. The Manatee grill was good and staff were friendly. Negatives: Check in is still extremely slow, even with the online check in completed a day in advance. Only 1 person present at desk at any time, no backup. ...

Courtyard by Marriott Sandestin Grand Boulevard
Clean room and always a pleasant stay. We stay here at least 5 or 6 times a year. It’s the best place to stay for the price.

The staff was very friendly, the room was great. Only complaint was the quality of the breakfast food; not as good as it used to be. Other than that, a great place to stay and a very convenient location!
