"You Will LOVE This Destin Gem!"
Overall Score3.5/ 5
The Summerplace Inn is a unique property: bigger than your average inn, more intimate than a big box hotel; close to everything, but far from the tourist traps. This hotel has a vibrant young staff ready to assist you with your stay. Every morning they serve a deluxe continental breakfast to get your day started. You can walk to the beach, or sit by their outdoor pool. Rainy weather can't stop the fun...they also have an indoor pool! Sports families will appreciate that the hotel is adjacent to the Track Family Recreation Center. The rooms are well decorated and maintained. You will love the Summerplace Inn and will understand why year after year, families make this their DESTIN-ation! The ONLY reason this hotel was not awarded 4 points was because it is limited service.

"Very Nice!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
I would say we had a very great experience all together! Room was clean, pools were nice and the service we received was excellent! I will say breakfast in the mornings are a little rushed. There were so many people trying to get breakfast at once so it was super hard to fall in "line". but other than that, great experience!
