Overview

SummerPlace Inn Destin provides a good base for families visiting the area. While some guests have noted issues with check-in and room maintenance, many families highlight the positive aspects such as the pools (both indoor and outdoor), which are popular with children. The convenient location, close to the beach and local amenities, is another plus point, as is the rotating breakfast. Families should be aware that noise levels can vary due to the proximity of a nearby go-kart track and that the pool can get busy.

Our problem's started with check-in. They tell you right off the bat to make sure you keep the keys away from your phone but if you have any problems to let them know. I did, went straight to our room and couldn't get in...after 3 visits down stairs (while my family and all of our belongings waited in the hallway) someone finally came to check the lock which was broke. While waiting for them to repair the lock we found out the toilet was broken as well. All of this in the first 30 minutes. The blackout curtains were to small the be effective. However, we had a balcony...it faced the road so even though it was a little loud at times (go-cart track next door) you could see the beautiful ocean! 🌊 Price was very reasonable. Breakfast was good each morning was a little different. Pools were nice as well.

The rooms were clean and well appointed and the beds quite confortable and thw instant hot water was a nice surprise as most hotels take forever to run hot. The outside abient lighting was a huge issue as the blinds were not suffocoent and the traffic noise at times was unfortunate. Also the door allow water from the balcony to soak the carpet nearby. We (6 adults had hoped to enjoy the pool and hottin but is was completely overrun by soccer teams, their parents and siblings. Ridiculously loud, kids and soccer balls bouncing like a war zone. Not at all the relaxing time we had hoped. Common room at breakfast and dinner also consumed by same crowds making it mostly unusable. Staff was realy quite nice! Parking is tight but assuming that was due to the large groups associated with soccer tourny. Stay should have been discounted to make up for said inconveniences.

Stayed 3 nights. Check-in was a breeze with Tamika. She was Super friendly. Room was clean and stocked with all amenities. Had an indoor pool and outdoor pool to entertain the kids and wife. Hotel supplied a rotating breakfast every morning, which was awesome.The nights got a little loud with the party folks. But, I would overall stay again.

Overall an okay stay. We read a lot of reviews so we weren't very surprised, but did want to point out a few things. Front desk staff is generally awful. However there was one man and lady who checked us in on Thursday that were very kind. The rest were rude and unhelpful. There is some sort of issue with keys where you have to get it reset. When we were checking in a couple had to wait 30 min to get their keys reset. Then we had to two nights in a row with no explanation, both mind and my husbands didn't work. This could be a huge pain. It clearly wasn't because of cleaning staff entering, because they didn't enter once during the 4 nights we were there. There is no option or DND door sign, as they won't come in anyway. Had to ask for more soap due to them leaving one small thing of shampoo for our family. The pool area needs an update, it gets wet upon use and there are hugely slippery spots. At one time I fell and cracked my knee, the staff would not help my husband find an ice maker to get ice or offer towels as I was sopping wet due to the standing water outside the pool. The indoor/outdoor pool was the reason we selected this hotel. We were on the side of the hotel with a family fun park next door. It is loud, really loud. I would suggest earplugs or getting a room elsewhere. The hotel was totally full and we had no option. It runs every night. Breakfast was fine. About what you would expect. Coffee also fine. Beds were fun, rooms were clean.
