Inn on Destin Harbor, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good
"This property has a long history and the brochure in the room that tells the story is a nice addition. We found this as a last minute place to stay when we arrived at the beach a day earlier than planned. Location on the harbor, outdoor pool, an in house bar, and great breakfast were all great amenities. The flooring in the hallways (other than the first floor) REALLY need to be replaced. Maybe Choice Hotels could invest in the property. After reading some of the reviews I was worried about what we would find, but we were pleasantly surprised. Give it a try!"
