We booked this hotel just for the indoor pool and spa and drove outta town for Christmas and we couldn’t enjoy our stay . Me and my family were very disappointed and the web site should have stated things were not in working order before people and families make reservations.

Young man at front desk was very polite. Perfect location for a one night stay. The restaurant “ the shack “ across the street was amazing and we were also able to watch the sunset from the dock. Very clean hotel!

Before making a reservation to this hotel,I called and asked was this hotel across from the beach. Well I get there and it is not there is a port there a marina I was taking my family on vacation to the beach not to a port Marina. Well with there being a beach there that's what I was told right across the street I booked the room when I got there I tried to get the booking off the clerk told me that I was the 7th person that had been lied to and he is not been able to fix anybody's bookings. I told them I wanted a refund and I could go somewhere else they told me they could not do that that I would have to pay the whole stay 576.88 if I left that day that I got there so I asked if I stay one night can you refund the other he said yes I paid $288 for one night & was charged 576.88. I had a brand new hat stolen by room service when I brought this up they acted like they couldn't find my hat. One of the worst staffs besides the Hampton Inn by Hilton on Okaloosa Island. I will not be staying at a Holiday Inn never again if I have to worry about my belongings being stolen. If I was not up under so much time I would have just called the police. Very unprofessional Hotel

Due to an unfortunate health issue I needed a room as soon as possible (check-in is 3:30). The gentleman on duty was very kind and accommodating getting a handicap room and getting it ready as soon as possible. Please commend him for his service.

The front desk was very helpful but the housekeeper was RUDE! I think her name was Nikki or Nakia she got upset because we called and asked why the room wasn’t clean and we were gone all day. We came back to room around 4 to get ready for a wedding we called fri t desk moments later she knocked and said she was there to clean I said we getting ready now that’s impossible so she got mad and just mumbled and I’m pretty sure I heard her cuss me out because she couldn’t do it then asking me why call then. Then 3 of the house keeping staff literally stared me and my wife down going and coming from car while they sat out front. My wife felt very uncomfortable.

We spent two nights at Holiday Inn Express Fort Walton Beach Central, and found it clean, quiet, comfortable. People there, were friendly and quick to support. In case we'll be back in the area, we will likely choose the same hotel again. The only minor complain was with the towels, small and thin, but not affecting at all the overall nice experience.

This hotel came through for us when we had to check out of the nasty Super 8 by Wyndham hotel near by early because it was just deplorable. This Holiday inn is very nice, however there was some stains on the blinds that were kinda gross. I wish the bathrooms had ventilators.

Checking out took forever because multiple staff members were doing other things, but couldn’t seem to figure out who was running the desk. Other then that it was great!

The hotel itself was clean staff was friendly. The problem We had was when I called the day before for confirmation We had asked if we arrived early would we be able to check in early because we drove 15hrs they said that would be ok. When we arrived they said no one should have told me that and unfortunately they didn't let us check in till 3 if they would have said that on the phone we never would have left early

We loved the "luggage bench" in our room. Just perfect for opening up your bags, grabbing whatever you needed without too much disruption to the other items and then an easy zip and out the door. Perfect for an overnight stay. Also, the beds were extremely comfortable. The breakfast was very satisfying with a large selection. Damian was very accommodating, replenishing breakfast items immediately when out. The front desk staff was courteous. We would stay there again, if needed. It was a most enjoyable experience.

I was hesitant to stay here with my family because of some of the reviews of bed sheets not being changed. I took the chance and glad we did. We took our family and don't have any complaints. Housekeeping was there to service our rooms and brought in clean sheets while we were walking out to go to the beach. It looked like the housekeeping supervisor was with them and they did an amazing job. Rooms looked great after a long day, beds were perfectly made and refreshed. I can't express how great their housekeeping staff was. Breakfast was great, lots of options, from cereal, pancakes, cinnamon rolls,bagels to eggs and sausage. That was a plus for us with traveling with little kids and not having to rush them around to go eat out. Pool was nice to visit. Also, needed more blankets and sheets for the pull out bed and the front desk brought these up for us. I'm not sure where the bad reviews are coming from because we obviously had a much different stay than some of y'all. Great location, easy access, 10 minutes away from Okaloosa beach. Will definitely stay again in the future.

All the staff was very friendly and welcoming! The rooms were very clean and comfy.... made me feel like I was at home! The free continental breakfast in the morning had plenty of delicious options, for adults and kids both. Will most definitely stay here again when Im in Destin!

I thought I requested handicap access for my wife. But, I got a room that was set up for hearing impaired. My wife didn't want to change rooms and stated the she could deal with it. A few extra hand hold in the bathroom area is all that would have been needed.
