We just had the absolute BEST car wash experience at Otto's Express Car Wash in Destin, and I can't…read morestop raving about it! Pulled up to their spotless 34709 Emerald Coast Parkway location on a sunny Florida afternoon, and from the second I arrived, the friendly staff greeted us with genuine smiles and made us feel like royalty. The whole process was a breeze--drove right through their state-of-the-art 130-foot tunnel, and my dusty SUV emerged looking like it just rolled off the showroom floor. That Tsunami Foam Bath and Carnauba Wax in the Ultimate Wash? Pure magic! Every speck of sand from the beach was gone, and the shine lasted through a full day of Destin adventures. What sets Otto's apart is the cost and little extras that make it feel luxurious: the free vacuums that actually vacuumed everything (no weak ones there!), plush microfiber towels, spotless window cleaners, and even a fabulous floor mat station to tackle those sandy messes that vacuum, shampoo and dry those mats! If you're in Destin, skip the old-school washes and head straight to Otto's. It's not just a clean car; it's a sparkling mood booster every time. You Otto try it--you won't regret it! Highly recommend to locals and beach-goers alike.

So sorry that modern cars have cameras and sensors in the bumper! The attendant was working alone at the time, and told me so afterward and said he rushed me through because he was frazzled. Do NOT take your car through Otto's. If it is damaged, they'll give you a hard time, even though we all know they carry business insurance for this very reason. You'll be hearing from my attorney.

I had heard bad things before but hadn't personally had a problem, but I went through last week and their wash damaged my car. I couldn't get an answer from management for three days, and when I finally got a return call, they refused to take any accountability even when it was their employees who said the wash would be fine. Poor, poor business. With all the new car washes popping up, no reason to go to this one and risk it.

I'm a local, and I have a membership with another car wash for my personal vehicle. Today, I wanted…read moreto do something nice for a girlfriend of mine and surprise her by washing her vehicle. I decided to stop here. I added my credit card and hit the "tire cleaner" -- it took almost 40 seconds for anything to start. Then, when I chose the "soap" button, it continued with extremely low pressure. As we all know, you need high-pressure soap to knock off any dirt before using the brush, so you don't scratch the paint finish. I kindly spoke to the owner and explained the situation. He told me that his pump was broken and that low-pressure soap was all there was -- no high-pressure soap available. I politely asked if he could give me a credit so I could at least use the high-pressure rinse to knock off the dirt, but he ignored me and walked away. After washing her vehicle, I approached him again and explained that I like to support local businesses by leaving reviews when they provide good customer service. I reminded him that all I asked for was a simple credit -- nothing more -- and I was genuinely shocked by his response. He began cursing and told me he didn't care for my business, that I didn't have to come back ever again. Just absolutely horrible customer service. I stayed polite and left.

This is not a very good car wash. In my opinion, it is poorly managed and poorly maintained…read more Equipment is constantly breaking down, leaving customers without working vacuums or compressed air. My car frequently exits the wash full of soap. They advertise armor all for tires, but what they don't tell you is that it doesn't get sprayed on in the car wash. You need to apply it yourself. I was just there today and at least one of the vacuums has been missing for well over a month and again they have an entire section closed off for no apparent reason. The attendants seem apathetic and disinterested in helping the customers. There is one bright exception, a young fellow with a crew cut who works his tail off. I don't feel that the membership is a good value only because the quality of the car wash is so poor. It's definitely an example of you get what you pay for. It's a shame because when this car wash first opened it was very well managed and very well maintained. We were glad to have it. Seems like over time the Take Five people have abandoned this car wash, which is surprising given the fact that it is situated along a well traveled highway close to several highly coveted resorts in the area.

There were still water marks from the pre-scrub on the front of the hood because the wash didn't touch the grill or hood. Attendant let me run car through a second time but the grill, hood and mirrors are still dirty. Carpet mat washing machine does nothing, sucks floor mat through in about 5 seconds or less and just blows air on it.
