Situated on the white-sand beach in a nine-acre resort, the Four Points by Sheraton Destin-Fort Walton Beach provides access to many water sports as well as wonderful views of the Gulf of Mexico. Many attractions, such as the Gulfarium and Pleasure Island Waterpark, are within walking distance. Other area attractions include the Air Force Armament Museum eight miles away and the Big Kahuna's Water Amusement Park five miles away. The nearest airport, Destin Airport, is only five miles from the hotel. The 216 guest rooms in this six-story hotel feature basic amenities such as cable television, coffeemakers, and hair dryers. Dial-up Internet access and complimentary newspapers are also offered. There are no safes in the rooms to keep valuables but guests can use the safe-deposit boxes at the front desk. The room could use a refurnishing, as most of the furniture is old and worn. The hotel also features two swimming pools, a poolside bar, and two spa tubs. Guests can also take advantage of the new fitness room and kids will appreciate the children's playground. Overall, this hotel is a pleasant stay with an appealing beachside location.
