Top Fort Walton Beach Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Fort Walton Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed our stay it was one week. Really loved the breakfast options only upgrades needed is the bed and the small tv. Otherwise we had a lovely stay. Bathrooms large and accommodating."

Beal House Fort Walton Beach, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The stay was wonderful! Hotel was clean and staff was friendly. Breakfast at the hotel restaurant Remedy was very convenient. One thing I’d recommend is looking at the menu ahead of time if you choose to add breakfast to your package. I have an egg yolk allergy and the menu is limited so I asked for egg whites. They hesitated to even say yes they could do it every morning and up-charged me for it every time. As a former Chef, I didn’t appreciate that! It is not hard to separate an egg. They made me feel like I was being a pain."
