Great location and we liked that you were next to the water. You can use free kayaks and paddle boards. Property is very dated and allow pets in rooms. One dog was swimming in the pool and being aggressive towards my grandchildren. Another was on the beach area where it did its business and was left by the owner.

Clean room with a nice beach aesthetic. Very convenient for people with boats—dock your boat right in front of the hotel. I really wish the grab and go breakfast area had been expanded. It can get quite crowded. But the breakfast options were great, good quality, and with variety. Elevator may or may not be working when you come. Be prepared to possibly walk up/down 3 flights of stairs!

We had an amazing stay at this hotel! The ocean view was absolutely breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. One of the best parts was being able to see fishes swimming clearly from our room and even dolphins playing in the ocean. It was such a beautiful and relaxing experience. The atmosphere was peaceful, the staff were friendly, and the overall stay exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend this place for anyone who loves the ocean and nature!

Our stay at the Inn on Destin Harbor was wonderful. The harbor view from our room was absolutely amazing, and one of the highlights was being able to see dolphins and other marine life right from the room. It made the stay feel peaceful, relaxing, and memorable. The location was also very convenient and close to many amenities, including restaurants, shops, entertainment, and local attractions. Everything we needed was nearby, which made it easy to enjoy Destin without having to travel far. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend the Inn on Destin Harbor to anyone looking for a beautiful view, a great location, and a relaxing getaway.

There was blood under the toilet bowl when I checked in. I was offered to move me to another room, but the sheets were extremely stained in the 2nd room, so I kept the 1st room and cleaned it myself. The room was handicapped accessible. The water did not go completely down the drains when we showered, it would come in the room and we had to use a lot of towels to dry the floor. The plumbing was horrible. The toilet clogged on the last night and water started to come up in the sink. Also, the paint is peeling on the ceiling. However, the view was beautiful and the location was convenient.
