Comfort Inn & Suites Destin near Henderson Beach

8/10 Good

"The property was closed to everything"

Beachside Resort Panama City Beach

8/10 Good

"It was a bit loud, maintenance banged on the door next to us and we jumped out of bed it sounded like someone was coming through the wall! The girl on the front desk was very knowable and helpful. The bartender at the pool bar was awesome and the food was very good and prices reasonable. We will go back. The decor was dated and the tub drained slow but everything was clean. The kitchen was not well equipped but we had a full size frig that was a plus. Our room did not have a private balcony which I thought we were getting so next time I will clarify our request. But all snd all it was a great weekend and we will be back."
