    Destin Tours and Attractions

    This hotel overlooks Henderson Beach State Park and sits right on the main road through Destin. While you won't walk out your door onto the sand, you'll have easy access to beaches, restaurants, and all the top attractions in Destin and Fort Walton Beach.

    There is so much to do in the center of Destin that we suggest planning multiple days in the area.

    The hotel is located right next to the main road through Destin and Fort Walton Beach, Florida. The hotel has free parking, free breakfast, indoor and outdoor pools, and a fitness center.

    Our room was right at the front of the hotel overlooking the road. We were really nervous the road noise was going to keep us up all night. Thankfully after the busy rush around dinner time things quieted down and we had a great nights sleep.

    This hotel is in a great location for exploring Destin and Fort Walton Beach. We were able to easily drive to Destin Commons, Okaloosa Island, and great restaurants.
