Pros (+) Visually pleasant with night life and shops on site.
Cons (-) After driving thirteen hours with three children, it was disappointing to arrive and be surprised by additional fees of $92 at the check-in counter.

Pros (+) I'd go back in a heartbeat. The room had a gorgeous view of the Gulf and was very clean. The pool and hot tub are right outside with island music playing. We went at the end of the season so it wasn't crowded. 2 minute walk to the very clean well maitanted beach. It's also about a 5-19 minute drive to all the action in destin like water sports. The resorts has gorgeous golf courses, ship, restaura...
Cons (-) We stayed at the luau tower and they didn't have room service. Only a pizza delivery service. But that's ok
