Cons (-) Everything was perfectly fine. Our only issue (and I never quite got over it) was the view. We were on the first floor. The patio (not balcony that I preferred) had a clear view of the vehicles coming to park. Children would randomly come and peek through our sliding door. There should be a way to choose what floor you’d like to be on. All in all, we made the best of our honeymoon.

Pros (+) Visually pleasant with night life and shops on site.
Cons (-) After driving thirteen hours with three children, it was disappointing to arrive and be surprised by additional fees of $92 at the check-in counter. From there we drove to our room (Bayside), unloaded the car, schlepped up to our room to find it uncleaned. Towels soaked in red juice, trash on the floor, no bedding, and the a/c off. The room phone did not work to call the front desk. I used my cell...

Pros (+) I'd go back in a heartbeat. The room had a gorgeous view of the Gulf and was very clean. The pool and hot tub are right outside with island music playing. We went at the end of the season so it wasn't crowded. 2 minute walk to the very clean well maitanted beach. It's also about a 5-19 minute drive to all the action in destin like water sports. The resorts has gorgeous golf courses, ship, restaura...
Cons (-) We stayed at the luau tower and they didn't have room service. Only a pizza delivery service. But that's ok

Pros (+) The location was ok had a nice beach and downtown sandestin was a nice atmosphere.
Cons (-) Have stayed at Sandestin 3 times now I liked the resort until this stay. The pool was filthy with all kinds of cups floating or sunk in pool a diaper had come apart on the side and it stayed there all day. We asked about getting someone to clean the pool and there was no one to do it (supposedly it was there day off). We stayed 3 days and the pools were dirty the whole time. No coolers were allowe...
