South Bayou Hotels, Fort Walton Beach

"Great stay at the Hyatt!!! started with a friendly staff. The room was super clean. We loved loved the breakfast every morning! Fresh! Pool was heated and clean! Great area to veg! 10 minutes to the beaches and tons of restaurants surrounding the Hyatt! Certainly recommend!!"

"The property is starting to show its age but still very comfortable. The staff is so friendly and helpful. The biggest complaint is the noise. All day long every plane, jet and helicopter flying overhead. All. Day. Long. "

"Clean "

"There weren't too many choices for breakfast, but I still got my fill. "

"Could’ve had a complementary breakfast of some sort but it was a beautiful place. It had a wonderful view. A wonderful pool always had clean towels delivered was for sure. A five star experience for me and my family."

"We loved our stay at the Island Resort! The pools and grounds are beautifully kept and are very fun for the guests. Its walkable by beach or parking lot to several restaurants and stores. We will be back!"

"There was mold in the bathroom walls and shower curtain. Bathroom floor not swept. Bath tub did not drain while showering. 3 bath towels for 4 people. No extra toilet paper. "

"While this hotel was remodeled a few years ago, the bones a rough. I was here for 16 days and was able to really settle in. The elevators need to be replaced; there are issues. On multiple occasions the elevators attempted to descend with the doors open and other times the control panel doesn’t recognize the floor that was selected. Ventilation was rough; smelled all sorts of meals being cooked in surrounding rooms. If you want to listen to dogs bark; this is the place to go; pet friendly for sure! Avoid spring break weeks here; large crowds/parties booked 3 rooms conveniently placed all around me and it was party central in the rooms and hallways. No respect for other guests. My particular room location; the window a wouldn’t close 100% so the weed being smoked in the courtyard came right in! Hotel addressed with the guests and it stopped but at 11:00pm and airing my room out until 1am wasn’t ideal. Rooms are nice/decorated well and spacious. Laundry is new! Breakfast was robust; a lot of options and staff is very friendly and helpful! Parking was good as well, no issues. If your looking for a 1-3 night stay; should be good, if longer, don’t recommend."

"Breakfast was very good but cold each day. Furniture was worn out and looked really bad, not what we’re used to at Embassy. One day we were notified the water in the entire hotel would be turned off from 11:00 pm-6:00 am because of testing the pipes.?? Embassy Suites is one of our favorite hotels but this experience was a little disappointing."
