SunDestin Beach Resort by Panhandle Getaways

Huge construction project going on that wasn’t disclosed in information. Entire facility noise and racket from construction first thing in the am until 5-6 pm. Elevator totally sketchy and outside very dirty. Outside pools closed and kids splash pad closed. Told construction would continue for at least another 6 months

The property is in a great location. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. There is easy access to the beach. The gym is small but clean. It has a cute little gift shop where you can find snacks. Our room in particular was a little dated but very clean. Our porch had very cheap tiles laid down that were a little sketchy. Unfortunately the property was under renovation while we were here which we were not aware of until after booking. We did deal with some noice from that and seeing the place looking like a construction zone. I would recommend though for the price.

Very run down and dumpy, major construction made it look like a war zone and very noisy, outdoor pool and hot tub closed. Beach towels not provided. Bedding was very thin and minimal. Would not recommend or stay here again.

My room was dirty, smelled like smoke. It was under construction and i was not told prior that the floor was under construction. I booked it so I could sit on the balcony , read and enjoy the gulf sound and view. The balcony door was baracaded from the outside. There were construction materials and buckets and spare mirrors in my rooms. Construction noises which included loud drilling and banging started EARLY in the morning! I reached out to the front desk, hotels.com and Vacasa (because their name and number was on the refrigerator as the contact) All I got from them was, "I'm sorry." That was of no benefit to me! It was our 25th anniversary which made it worse! I was offered no compensation and we were booked for 3 nights. We left after the first night stay. The lady from Vacasa instructed me to "just let the front desk know if you decide to leave." I have nothing good to say about my stay or Sundestin Resort.

We have enjoyed our stay at

Our specific room was fine, there is stains on the king bed and the pull out couch bed. Other than that it’s as described during booking and clean. There was a man that said he needed to inspect “access” to our room at 9am and knocked on the door Monday. There was also a huge group of boxes for decoration right outside of our door. Linda weird but the beach is great and makes it worth it.

Shouldn't be open during construction.. was a horrible experience

We were told after we booked that the pool was under construction. Called and they said our area shouldn't be affected, but there was construction on our floor two doors down from us. Called for some sort of compensation for the noise and inconvenience. They gave us $157 back on a 5 day stay. Not enough in my mind for all the mess and their dishonesty. Will never rent from Vacasa company again and Hotels.com should take this property off their site until construction is done.

There was construction through the entire building. Only 2 elevators were working in the building with 18 floors. The actual unit was cleaned nor sanitized. Two of my kids sinus and asthma were triggered from the dirt, dust and debris on the out of the room entrance and balcony area. Also there were no accommodations.

The hotel's location and the staff's service are excellent. However, This hotel situation is not at all conducive to rest, so I checked out one day early. Since I only stayed for one of the two days. This morning, after taking a shower and coming out, I made eye contact with construction workers going up in a gondola outside the window, which was shocking for me. This vacation was completely ruined because of this hotel. I returned home today because I felt it would be more comfortable to rest at home.
