Hilton Garden Inn Ft. Walton Beach

"We had such a wonderful stay! The staff was absolutely awesome, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. The pool was clean, there was plenty of seating and they had fun activities to keep the kids entertained, which was a bonus. Our room was clean and the beds were super comfortable which we appreciate so much, there is nothing worse than a crappy bed. The hotel also has direct access to the beach was a huge favorite for us! It’s super convenient having showers to rinse off with after going down to the beach. We loved hanging out by the pool area during the day and in the evening they had fire pits going with life sized games and music, It made for such a fun atmosphere! Everything about our stay was enjoyable, and we’ll definitely be coming back again. If you visit, make sure to walk the pier! It’s only $2 and 100% worth it! We saw massive sea turtles, tons of fish, and even a few dolphins. The sea turtles were definitely the highlight of our trip!"

"Just what we were looking for - not lost in the hubbub of Destin but still on the white sand and emerald coast! We had a beachfront room on the second floor, high enough to enjoy the view of the Gulf while still close to the lazy river and pool. We had dinner one night in the hotel restaurant which has a fun, sports bar vibe. A great place to stay if you like long walks on the beach and uncrowded sunrises and sunsets!"

"Great views! We had a balcony over looking the lazy river. The water fall was loud & couldn't hear the Gulf waves. But the view made up for it. The staff was always helpful. As in most hotels, not much storage for clothes or bathroom stuff. The food was ok. We preferred to go out."
