Top WaterSound Beach Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Destin Miramar Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean. Just a 3 minute walk from Miramar Beach. My wife and I came here for our honeymoon. It was great! The breakfast was amazing as well. There is a Surf Style across the street for any beach amenities you may need and it is not far from popular restaurants in Destin. For example, my wife and I went to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and Commelfo Restaurant (both wonderful), and really enjoyed our time there. We aim to come back to Destin every few years to honor our honeymoon and nuptials!"

Chateau Beachfront Hotel, A By The Sea Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff were super friendly and helpful. Check-in and out were very easy. I also appreciated how well communication was handled. The location was great and the view from our room was spectacular. Sadly the place was a bit rundown. We enjoyed our stay nonetheless."

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Panama City Beach Beachfront

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the big pool, the lazy river and the convenience of having the beach just steps away! The hotel was beautiful and clean. The staff were helpful and nice everywhere ant the hotel except in the little gift shop by the pool. I would not order food or buy things in that poolside shop again. The pizza was actually decent but the women working there act like you are invisible. I waited for like 15 minutes by myself first in line yet they kept working in front of me like I wasn’t there. I didn’t know I had to fill out an order form first. No one said anything to me. It was a very strange encounter and vibe."
