10/10 Excellent

"Great location to state park. Relaxing and comfortable bed."

Hyatt House Destin

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first time to Destin and we now have our “go-to” location for sure. We decided to extend our stay and Shan & Sammy made the process so easy. They were so professional and friendly as were all the staff we interacted with. The room was clean, beds comfy and the restroom was clean and big. The place is beautiful, pool is amazing and has gorgeous view of the golf course."
