My boyfriend and I traveled to Destin, FL for a four day birthday trip this past Sept. 2011. We had an extremely pleasant stay at the SummerPlace Inn. One of the major pluses of this hotel is the location. We rented a car and drove from Atlanta, therefore we were able to drive to everything. Great outlet shopping was about a 15 minute car ride from the hotel. There's also a ton of restaurants and a huge Wal-Mart within a five minute drive. On the downside the beach is located across a huge, busy intersection. On to the hotel itself-because I brought my dog with us we had to stay on the first floor (a nominal pet fee of about $30). We didn't have a view because our room faced the street. The room was very clean, the bathroom floor was not. There was hair in the corners of the bathroom that didn't belong to us. The tub had been scrubbed and there was no odor in the room. Breakfast was available and we took advantage of it the first day. But it's nothing to write home about. A basic continental that they change daily. It's a good, free start to the day, but we opted to go out for breakfast after the first day. Overall I think we would stay here again if we couldn't afford better. It was a good value for the money.
