Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesHouse keeping is not so great . I requested towels on day 2 , never received them after calling twice finally they came more than a hour later . Requested toilet paper on the day of checkout never received it. Never had the room cleaned either after staying 3 nights and 4 days.
This property is always our go to when coming to Fort Walton Beach, with Destin a few minutes a away it’s a great place to be. We enjoy this hotel being right on the beach and close to restaurants and shopping . The lazy river and kid area is a plus for little kids and the Tiki bar with live music is always a vibe , my favorite part about our stay was also the double queen room with the balcony and gulf view . Weather was perfect even with one rainy day to leave our balcony door open our entire stay .

United StatesI loved the property. The only thing I would change was how far the dog area was. I had to carry my dog way to the back of the parking lot for her to pee. If I didn’t carry her she would’ve peed how long the walk was. The hotel was wonderful and the staff was amazing. There is a lot of construction in front of the hotel so turning left back towards town can take 20 minutes due to the volume of traffic but it’s not the hotels fault. Hopefully after construction is complete it will be more smoother. It was very dangerous at night when I was trying to go to Alvin’s and an event was going on at the convention center.

United StatesSadly, the property is in need of repairs. A broken restroom (for six days), several broken doors, a broken washer, and the water was shut off one day. Our room was s mildew colony with water weeping from the restroom wall. Money needs to be put into repairing the place before it falls apart!

United StatesOnly semi negative was the view from the room. I thought i had chosen ocean view while booking. They said sometimes it doesn't get relayed correctly on the booking website ( through any third party) i messaged booking and never got a reply. Our view was of the parking lot and toad construction. I would have never chose that our first time go the gulf shore, intentionally at least. We stayed put of the room most of the trip so it really wasn't that big of a deal. Just verify your room before arrival.
We really loved the resort and breakfast. The facility was clean and plenty of restaurants in walking distance down the beach. We didn't move our car once we got there.

United StatesThe property is showing some wear. Seating in the dining area and lobby are worn out and should be replaced soon. Maintenance issue was not addressed, although we told several people regarding the toilet in our bathroom. Service was lacking. Staff It’s not as attentive and friendly, as they have been in the past.
The property is right on the beach. We enjoy the beach, pool area and the Tiki bar. We have been coming to this location for many years. Fort Walton Beach is as beautiful as always.

United StatesThe hotel allowed pets . I had no idea. My allergies were the worse during my stay . $400 per night and the guest in on my floor were very noisy. There were at least 3 rooms at a minimum that were loud . My room smelled like animals. The front desk clerk said that the rooms were sold out so I wasn’t able to move to a different floor . I was called / texted several times before my arrival to confirm my stay and they threatened to cancel my room if I didn’t make it in my noon . Luckily I arrived right at 12:31 so I was able to check into my room, but had I known that my stay wouldn’t have been comfortable i would have just allowed them to sell my reservation. We checked out the next day and stayed at a different hotel about 3 miles away from this one . I’m very pleased with my 2nd hotel choice. The resort itself is very family / pet friendly so if that’s your preference then I would recommend the Hilton garden inn
The hotel was clean and on the beach which was very convenient
