At the end of July, my husband and I spent a full week at Henderson Park Inn on the beach at…read moreDestin, FL. and it exceeded every single expectation. Traveling during peak summer can sometimes mean crowds or lagging service, but this resort delivered the exact opposite. From the moment we checked in, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel like VIPs. Our room was immaculate, cool, quiet, and serviced impeccably every day. The refreshment/ snack center lines the breezeway onto the expansive veranda and steps down to the beach. It's stocked with guests favorites to enjoy 24/7. A glass door refrigerator is kept stocked with variety of Coca Cola brand soft drinks & bottled water. Lower shelves are kept well stocked with all kinds of Mars and Hershey candies from Milky Ways to M&Ms. Pretzels, Sun Chips and more varieties of Miss Vicky's potato chips. Starbucks drink machine rounds it out with a variety of hot drinks and iced coffee, made to order in under two minutes! Chocolate chip cookies fresh from the kitchen always available in registration area. Meals from their five star award winning pinched and culinary team can't be over stated. And the beach area (my reason for choosing Henderson) is gorgeous and pristine! -- it's lovely and never overcrowded, with staff constantly checking in to offer fresh towels, cold drinks, lunch and shaded setups. The dining options offered incredible variety and top-tier quality every single meal. All meals are à la cart. I enjoy this freedom to purchase specifically what I want rather than carrying a degree of cost for courses I don't order. Our meals were absolutely perfection! What truly sets Henderson Park Inn apart is the genuine warmth of the entire team. They didn't just manage a busy July week; they made us feel completely relaxed, pampered, and at home. Now at home we've realized this one week revitalized us better than two weeks anywhere else could've. Destin is a convenient location for most of the southeast. We live 6 1/2 hours drive away- pretty typical distance for many people in the southeast. But to stay at this amazing 5 Star resort right on the beach so reasonably close to home is a kind gift from God. Home now, refreshed and stocked with happy new memories too. This July 30 was our 50th wedding anniversary. Just can't put into words how wonderful time, even an over night Henderson Inn always is. This was our fourth visit!

Beachside Inn was the only reasonably priced lodging in the area that could accommodate our two large dogs, and the front desk staff was very understanding and welcoming. Our room was immaculately clean and incredibly easy to check into. The room was also extremely spacious and had ample room for all four of us. There was even a freshly baked loaf of blueberry bread on the desk, which was such a sweet touch! We stayed for four days and not once did we experience a single disruption - the inn was quiet and peaceful. The beach is just a two minute walk across the street. The inn is tucked away in a walkable neighborhood with beautiful homes - we enjoyed walking around the area with our dogs. Camille's cafe and restaurant is right next door - we got breakfast there two of our four mornings, and it was absolutely delicious! They have fresh smoothies, breakfast sandwiches, etc. Check out was a breeze - all we had to do was lock the room and enter a check-out code on the keypad. We would absolutely stay at Beachside Inn again!

We were even allowed to check in a little earlier as our room was ready. We had room 207. Room: we had a two bedroom. The beds were comfortable. AC worked well. We had a partial view of the ocean. Our room was equipped with a microwave, a refrigerator, TV, a coffee maker with coffee. The refrigerator worked well. We also had an iron and an ironing board. The bathroom: clean and spacious. Water pressure was great. We always had hot water. The toiletries in the bathroom included shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion. The body wash was empty. I did ask for it to be replaced twice and it never happened The pool: plenty of lounge chairs, but not as much shade. If you want pool towels, you can get them from the front desk. You do need your key to go in and out. The pool was nice, but full of children. Breakfast: continental breakfast with hot and cold items. You can get waffles, oatmeal, scrambled eggs, and protein. Cold items included yogurt and cereal. They had fruits, toast and bagels. The beach is a five minute walk from the hotel. There's also a walkable restaurant nearby called the back porch. Housekeeping does not come every day unless you request it. Check out was easy. We did ask for a late check out and were able to stay till 1230. Everyone that we encountered was nice and friendly.

Also 2 queen beds. I'm 6 foot 3. I don't fit on the bed. Hotel is being renovated and was not told that when reservation was set. Noise through day and night. Yes night also. Hand lotion dispenser fell off the wall. The door to room wouldn't lock with being forced really hard. I had to man handle to lock. When we said something to concierge they said they would see what they could do to help. Never heard back. Breakfast wasn't up to par either. No eggs or bacon when we went to eat. Only waffles and sausage. Definitely not happy with stay. We stayed 5 days. Also they took the shampoo bottle off the wall the last night. Roof was leaking on us in the laundry room

We would be okay if they were full but just be upfront in the beginning. The room though was clean, on the first floor and the AC was running. The shower was clean and great water pressure. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, we slept well. The checkout process was easy and they had breakfast but we didn't partake.

However, the queen beds didn't feel like standard queen size. The hotel provides a complimentary breakfast buffet and offers made-to-order omelettes. The best part was the made-to-order option, where the chef prepared the omelettes exactly to the customer's specifications. The hotel also has a convenient private beach. You can easily access it using the gate code, and we all enjoyed spending time there. Embassy Suites was an excellent choice, offering good amenities including the private beach access.

The first room we were put in I sweat all night. The ladies at the front desk were so accommodating to get us a cool room. The night lady and early morning ( I should have gotten there names) went above and beyond to move us. They actually went to several rooms to find the coolest one. They gave us a voucher for $25 to use at the restaurant. We moved to a new room and it was much cooler. I was very pleased. The housekeeping does not clean your room. They exchange towels and give you new coffee bios and coffee. We had sand on us from the beach and it's very visible. They did not clean the floors nor the bathroom. The only reason we stayed here is because of the ladies at the front desk. Otherwise we would have found a different hotel. Breakfast is included, you get 2 free drinks per person a night and snacks. There's not very much to see at this location except the beach and a nice walking strip.

I stayed at this hotel during Easter weekend with my two adult daughters. I had my own suite, while…read moremy daughters shared another. We loved how close the hotel was to major attractions like HarborWalk Village, Henderson Beach State Park, and Silver Sands Premium Outlets--all less than ten miles away. The hotel's modern design and the layout of our suites were appealing, especially with the separate bedroom area from the living and kitchen space. Having a kitchen made it convenient so we didn't have to eat out for every meal, and we enjoyed using the jacuzzi as well. However, there were some significant downsides. My suite wasn't ready until around 6 PM, which was well past the designated check-in time. My daughters' suite was available by 4 PM, so at least we could refrigerate our groceries then. Cleanliness was also an issue: the sofa in my daughters' suite had visible dirt marks and a pet odor, and we found strands of hair in the towels and other places in both suites. Also, the "partial ocean view" advertised for our suites was so restricted that calling it a partial view seemed almost comical.
