Top Santa Rosa Island Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Resort Fort Walton Beach by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this hotel! It was so great to be right on the beach and made beach days so much easier. The tiki bar area by the pool was a great perk, as was the access to the pool at the hotel next door. The room was a pretty standard hotel room, nothing special but was clean and enough space for our family of four. I highly recommend upgrading to the ocean view room. Watching the sunsets off our balcony was amazing! The only thing that would have been nice to have was having breakfast included. We didn’t eat breakfast at the hotel, mainly because the $18.95 per person cost seemed overpriced, especially for kids."

Hilton Pensacola Beach

8/10 Good

"It’s Pensacola so you can’t beat the beach but unfortunately we visited the week after Hurricane Isaias."
