Great Place to consider when staying in Destin

We enjoyed our stay and the amenities supplied at the resort. The Lagoon pool was beautiful. Our only complaint would be the cleanliness of our Condo. For the amount we paid I feel the condo could have been cleaner and carpets could be cleaned even replaced.

Great little getaway spot!

We took a last-minute beach trip from Georgia, and this spot was perfect. From the location to all the amenities, we had the best time here. The lagoon pool was relaxing, as we sipped on "The Massive Mimosa" a must try. Our son made new friends, and didn't want to leave. We had a wonderful view, where we sipped coffee in the morning watching the sunrise. Definitely recommend "The Palms of Destin Resort" for you, and your family. We're already planning on coming back, and possibly become owners ourself.

Everything we expected!

Beautiful place and well taken care of. The large pool was too cold to swim in but enjoyed the heated pool and large hot tub. Would’ve liked the tennis courts to open before 9:00 ... awefully late! Nice large kitchen and plenty of living room space and 2 nice spacious bathrooms. Second bedroom a bit small but fine. The location was close to everything. We had a fantastic trip and will come back!!

Great property, terrible customer service

The property was clean, our room was great, and the location was great. Real joy was great as well. However the customer service at the actual resort was terrible. They could never help us with anything and if we asked for something (our key card wouldn’t work for the garage) it was like we completely inconvienced them. Then on check out day they shut our keys off an hour and a half before check out so one of us had to stay up in the room while the other took all the luggage down. They also do not provide trash bags, toilet paper, or dishwasher soap for more then 2 days and we were there for 7 so we had to provide all of that.

Surprised on how the room wasn't clean

The room wasn't in best shape. Dead bugs on floor the showers wasn't in best of shape. It was ok. Wasn't happy with the bed in master it was so hard and I had back surgery so it was uncomfortable. The condo had different furniture than advertised. Hard trying find carts to load your stuff. I just feel if your paying that much you should have clean condo. I left it better than I got it. Probably won't stay there again.

Nice place to stay

The condo was nice, clean and just as pictured. We would stay here again. Very quiet, which is nice. My Bill had like 7 different service fees and 3 different taxes. Be nice to have those explained more. I had $142 service fee, what’s the service? There were 2 different check in fees, ADW fee - not sure what that is. The cleaning fee I get. Why 3 different taxes? The Good Vibes bar had 2 different servers sell us drink cups for $12 and we were told free refills on drinks. When we got bill, we were charged for the drink in the cup and then when asked for a refill, was told that is only for tea and soda. They never said that. We were ordering daiquiris. Then later went down for some tea and they tried to charge us for the tea, when told ‘no, we get free refills” they didn’t seem to know that! So that was a little disappointing. Please be more specific and tell people what is allowed to for free! Have signs up with the info so all are on same page. We also ordered lunch by the pool, ordered grouper tacos, which was upcharged but when they arrived, barely any fish in the tacos! I had to take them up and get them to add fish so I could actually have some in each bite, not just one or two. Those who ordered sandwiches had nice big sandwiches that looked great. Not sure why they tried to be so skimpy with the fish? They did correct it thankfully. Also the TV in the living room was hard to figure out. Needs a sheet on how to operate it. Could not get it to connect to the wifi for things like Netflix and couldn’t get regular TV on it either. Bedroom TV we got regular TV. They were weird. In spite of these minor things, it was a nice place to stay. Many things within walking distance. We had a great time and would rent again here.

Enjoyed our stay. Food in the resort was not great, I tried the boneless wings and there was. The bed in the room was horrible. Everyone was very friendly and everything was pretty clean. Would stay again but maybe try a different room with a newer mattress.

Great Stay

We had a great stay the condo was exactly as pictured and everything was great. The Palms of Destin was nice we didn’t really expect there to be loud parties down at the bistro/bar every night but it wasn’t terrible. The only negative I can give is that the couches in the condo have seen better days and could stand to be updated. But over all had a great stay and would come back again!

Average place. Overall good experience. Room for improvement.

Overall we had a great stay. The place was clean and had a great location. The pool area was the highlight of the accommodation. The negatives were that the dryer ripped up a swimsuit and two pairs of underwear. I also noticed part of someone else’s swimsuit that had apparently stayed before us that had the same problem. Also, it would have been nice to have a beach umbrella and chairs.

Birthday vacation was a blast!

We loved this resort! Staff was super friendly and the room went above and beyond expectations!!! We came for our daughter’s 15 and 17 year old birthdays in October. Everything was super convenient and close by. Walmart was just down the road and beach access was within walking distance. Plenty of places to park if you choose to drive instead.We will definitely be staying here again!

Close to the beach

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean and close to the beach. The pool area was well maintained and we enjoyed using it. Our main problem was the second bedroom. Let’s be honest, it is a utility closet with a very uncomfortable bunk bed jammed into it. The washer and dryer are housed here, along with the smallest of closets. I realize that the closet technically allows this room to be called a bedroom, but this minuscule closet was filled with cleaning supplies and was unusable. Because there is no room for a dresser, I had to live out of my suitcase for the length of the stay, which I had to store in the bathroom. There are also no windows, which made it feel incredibly claustrophobic. I fully realize there is nothing you can do about this, and I’m not asking for an apology, but I guess a more accurate description and better photos would have been appreciated. I also realize that this condo is titled a 2 bedroom Jr. bedroom suite, but maybe a more appropriate title would be a 2 bedroom toddler suite to better reflect the size of the bedroom. However, the management company was very responsive when we had a maintenance issue, and as long as we weren’t in that room, everything was fine. I would wholeheartedly recommend this unit for parties of 2.
