***Please note: As part of an exciting resort enhancement project, some amenities at SunDestin Beach Resort remain under construction, including the restaurant, outdoor pools, steam room, and spa. Please note that the splash pad is currently not operable and will remain closed until further notice while ownership determines future plans for the area. The fitness center remains open for guest use during this time.



Guests may continue to enjoy beach access via the ADA-accessible pathway located around the side of the building. Please also note that there is currently a temporary detour in place for lobby access as enhancement work continues in select areas of the resort.



While construction activity is still present on-site, it is now far less invasive than it has been previously as the project enters its final stages and crews continue winding down operations. We are thoughtfully welcoming reservations while setting clear expectations in advance to help ensure a comfortable and positive stay during this improvement phase.



These enhancements are designed to elevate the guest experience for years to come, and we look forward to welcoming guests to a beautifully refreshed SunDestin Beach Resort—one that reflects the level of care, comfort, and coastal hospitality our owners and guests expect.

Great Spot

The location was central to a lot of great spots! The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The room was clean but a bit out dated. For visitors who are in the room more than not it was very pricey for the overall condition.

Wonderful

The location is perfect. Only thing I would of liked better is to be able to bring my own umbrella and set it anywhere on the beach I’d like instead of renting theirs. It still was a great place to stay and got to see turtles come close, a shark and huge sting rays swim near the shoreline. Awesome place to stay.

Kinda Outdated

The Location and View of the Gulf is gorgeous but the Condo is very Outdated for the Price we paid for 4 nights stay. The indoor pool was filthy we would not get in it. There were not enough chairs by the outdoor pool to accommodate a facility of your size.

Outdated

We enjoyed our stay and loved the location. The unit was outdated and needs updating but I knew that before I rented it. The beachfront is very close and beautiful. The only issue I had was the coffee pot did not function correctly so we had to buy coffee each morning. The coffee downstairs was very good but... Also needs a blackout curtain in bedroom for sleeping.
