When travelling to the Florida Panhandle city of Destin, many people are unsure whether to choose a beach hotel or resort. Both have their own unique set of benefits, so how do you know which one is right for you?
Here are four reasons why beach hotels are the better choice for your Destin trip:
1. Location, Location, Location: One of the main benefits of beach hotels is their location on the beach. This allows guests to take advantage of the incredible views and sounds of the Gulf of Mexico. Many beach hotels also offer easy access to the beach boardwalk, which makes it easy to get around town.
2. Amenities: Beach hotels typically have more on-site amenities than resorts, such as pools, hot tubs, and restaurants. This makes it easy to find everything you need without having to leave the property.
3. Value: Beach hotels usually offer better value than resorts. This is because they typically have smaller room sizes and fewer on-site amenities.
4. Variety: Beach hotels come in all shapes and sizes, with a variety of room types and prices to choose from. This makes it easy to find the perfect one for your needs.
