“Overall Good experience for our wedding”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Overall this hotel was a good choice for our small beach wedding ceremony and reception. We had our wedding on the beach access across the street from the Inn and our reception at Camille's. The food was amazing! All our guests were pleased with their meals. The manager Chris was very accommodating and helpful too.

My only real complaint was the room location they gave us. It was between the office and a loud group of teenagers staying in the room next to us. You would think they would have thought ahead since we reserved our room and wedding there months in advance and given us the best room they had. Also, when I called the front office to ask to have our room cleaned the receptionist said OK but then no one ever came so I had to go get fresh towels myself from the office. We only stayed two nights but upon leaving we realized on the card hanging on the door you have to flip it to let the maid know you want your room cleaned. Out of all the many hotels I have stayed in this is the only one where you have to ask for cleaning service. The floors were really dirty too, even on the first day we arrived, I think that it would be best if they get area rugs for the rooms to trap some of the dirt. The bed was really comfy.

Overall the location is amazing, the kayak/bike rental shop is a great feature, the staff is nice and food at the restaurant and cafe is great. I would recommend the Beachside Inn. They just need to work a little on their "polish."

Room Tip: Request a room far from the office.

“Quaint Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

I hesitate to share how special this Inn is for fear it will be discovered by the masses....all I can say is Beachside Inn is quaint, a rare find for the price. It is a small inn, conveniently located within walking distance to the beach. The housekeeping is outstanding as is the staff. We will be returning soon!

Room Tip: While the rooms are comfortable for sleeping, there is no ocean view and there are no sofas or comfo...

“LOVELY/CHARMING ROOM”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 August 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We just had a quick nights stay here. The room was lovely and charming, very large with nice decor and furniture. It's a small motel, older, but with lots of charm. The pool area was a little dirty around the steps and pool (cigarette butts, sand, etc), but really neat because it had 2 tiers. The room was really super clean except the edges of things. The only real problems we had with the room were: they need to clean better around the edges of things-bathroom sink in the corners had a lot of small hair and dust, the window seal and edge of curtain had lots of dust bunnies, the bed pillows are super stuffed and uncomfortable for the neck and the bed squeeked when you moved. The bed was very soft though and comfortable. The lady who checked us in was very nice and helpful. She was fun to talk to. The beach is across the street with public access. You can just walk over. There's a really cute little restaurant under the pool area where you get a free muffin and drink for breakfast. REALLY GOOD! We didn't try the open evening only restaurant upstairs. We went to the Crab Trap Restaurant down the road (really good). Anyway, we would stay in this hotel again in a heartbeat! (Just wipe the sink down) lol.

Room Tip: If you stay in the lower level rooms, you can park right outside your door! Hooray!

“Nice hotel in a great location with poor cleaning service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011 via mobile

My husband I stayed at this inn for a weekend getaway. The hotel is in one of the best locations to be in destin. It is quite and calming. They have a wonderful outdoor pool with a spa offering a great view. The ocean is a minute walk. U can see the ocean from accords the street. The restaurant camilles on the property is fantastic. I definitely recommend eating there while staying at the inn. There is also a lot of shopping and other restaurants nearby. There were a few things during the stay that did annoy me. We arrived at the hotel on a friday and the hotel office was closed. They did have a number to call, which the people at that number had no clue. I then walked upstairs and the restaurant manager got us the code for the room. We were in a handicap room right next to the office which is not as nice as the other rooms and tends to be noisier due to the location. They only provided one bar of soap and shampoo. The cleaning ladies didn't make it to our room until after 5pm both days and they didn't provide more soap or clean the floors or clean the shower when clearly it needed to be cleaned. I recommend bringing socks or slippers to wear since the floors always feel sticky and sandy and they don't clean them for u. They did change our sheets when we asked. Overall the good outweighed the bad and we would maybe stay again. Oh and no free breakfast. It's a great place to stay. Just request that u do not want the handicap room...

“Pleasant property. Super nice people and the coffee shop breakfast a very nice touch.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2011 via mobile

My daughter got a new kitten 2 weeks ago. Threw a bit of a curve into our vacation plans. Researched pet friendly places on beach. Selected Beachside Inn. Staff was awesome! We walked across the road to beach each day and and did not worry about the kitten back in the room. Close to everything in Destin we wanted to do
( shopping , restaurants, beach ). Will go back for sure.
