Excellent stay! We were able to check in an hour early. Had a gulf front balcony room. Everything was beautiful. Staff was friendly and very helpful when needed. The only downfall was the wedding at the hotel next door. Their music shook our room as we were on the end. But, it was Saturday night and it ended at 10:30. Staff from the Hilton came to check to ensure the noise was in fact from the hotel next door and not an upstairs neighbor. Would definitely return.

Nice price for economy stay

A quick spring break trip for the family, the room was spacious and the view was nice. beds were comfortable. However the room needed some TLC. The carpet was torn, only half the lights worked, the tile surround around bottom of shower had some sort of adhesive where it appeared to have repaired tile yet didn’t clean up the work. Now it’s dried and stained. I had to call for a bath mat as there was not one for in front of the shower. The breakfast buffet that you paid for was nothing more than a basic hotel breakfast. Cereal, powdered eggs, microwave sausage, toast and fruit. There was a lazy river yet only one tube…. So much potential of being a nice place to stay but needs better attention paid to detail to make guest stay feel more comfortable. We could’ve stayed at the Days inn for the same accommodations for half the price.

LOVE this location! Highly recommend. Super clean and staff is SUPER friendly. They go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. Clean rooms with soft beds, drawers and hangers in closet, full sized mirror, microwave and fridge, desk area, reading chair, side table. Safe and well lit parking lot, onsite cafe, breakfast buffet, indoor and outdoor bars, heated outdoor & indoor pools, private beach access. Fireplace, outdoor games, mini onsite store. Mix of families, business, military guests. Holiday Inn next door is their sister hotel with access to their pool. Bring your inflatables they provide free air to fill them. Outdoor pool is heated, yet in March the wind was still strong so it was not warm but not icy like the beach! The indoor pool area was nice and warm. They provide free beach towels and you exchange them for fresh ones at anytime. Happy hour available in indoor bar and outdoor Tiki bar makes great drinks and non-alcoholic ones for kids too. Lazy river provides tubes but your floats are welcomed. Its so close to everything and yet Fort Walton has a small town feel. Hotel is located right after bridge and has lots of restaurants and entertainment nearby. Easy drive to Destin and to major grocery stores. Lots of outdoor lounging chairs and tables onsite. HIGHLY recommend. Their customer service left the best impression on me and my family. Great job to their team and management for this! Every team member was friendly and made great small talk.

Everything was good with the exception of us getting a slight smell of gas every now and then in our room. We called the front desk twice about it and they said that they'll check in to it, but nothing came about it and the next morning, we still were getting the slight smell of gas every now and then. Upon checking out, I asked them and was told that it's from their laundry room and that it happens from time to time. If it wasn't for that issue, everything would've been 5 stars.
