Another drive to resort we've never been to---Destin. In fact, I hadn't been to Destin in about 45 years. Then I was camping. I find staying in a 3 bedroom unit in a resort to be more enjoyable.
Took us about 7 hours to drive there from NW Atlanta. Check in went easily. They took, "no" pretty well when I told them we weren't doing the owner update.
I tend to neglect the inside pictures when we have a place with great views. This resort even had a shopping mall below us.
Sunsets were fantastic.
right from our lanai
Maybe not the views like Panama City Beach, but still not bad.
And I kind of liked having the mall below us, even though we didn't do much but walk through it. With Covid running rampant, we weren't going out to eat or doing much shopping.
But the unit was large, clean and comfortable.
the 4th bedroom---bunkbeds with bathroom attached.
odd room, but nice to have if you have more kids with you.
the master bedroom
Layla's bathroom. Connected to her own room.
the resort from the mall
They even have their own beach.
but it was looking like a tea party was going on at the time.
But we sat there and enjoyed the sand and free loungers and umbrellas for awhile.
We also enjoyed the free resort shuttle to/from the beach.
heading back into the mall with the resort behind it.
we even hit the pool for awhile. Surprisingly it was a bit chilly, though. We were there in Sept, but we had some cool days.
Layla didn't seem to mind the water temp
they have an indoor pool, too, so we went to check it out. Much warmer, and noone was there but us.
We had a great time in Destin. Love all the white beaches. They even had some with handicap accessible boardwalks overlooking the beach. I believe we will be back.
