We perform checks on reviews.
Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This hotel is clean, nicely decorated with bright colors, and has friendly staff. TV remote is sanitized and sealed in plastic for new guests. Bottles of sanitizer in each room, sanitizing wipe with each room key card, breakfast buffet is served by pleasant hostess and front desk staff full of restaurant and activity information in the area. Would definitely stay here again.

This hotel experience is saved by its outstanding friendly industrious helpful and kind staff making the stay pleasant. Everyone from the front desk, information, housekeeping, cooks and breakfast servers are wonderful.
The management responsible for long term maintenance, upkeep (not cleanliness), and repairs, not so much. It is a shame that Wyndham would let such a nice property be neglected and not believe it reflects poorly on their brand. Just clean the windows, repair or replace stained carpets, repair nicks in furniture, fix the hot tub (broken for months as mentioned by many reviewers on many websites), fix the elevator and shim doors so they close latch and lock properly and safely.
While in Destin, I took a tour of Wyndham Club and declined their vacation offer, with prime reason being trust. How can I expect Wyndham to maintain the club properties when I have such a screaming example of Wyndham maintenance neglect in front of me?

We came down for a weekend to visit family and get away. We felt this hotel was the least risk in our price range and were pleasantly surprised and happy with the amenities and features. My GF doesn't like buffets but the server and other safety practices in place for the hot breakfast set her mind at ease. The room was starting to show a little wear in the bathroom but overall the room was nice and clean.

Horrible hotel. If I could give it zero stars I would. Wyndham should be embarrassed. So you know, I am NOT a complainer and do typically leave negative reviews.

First of all, it’s not near the airport. It does not have a shuttle. They do not offer coffee in the morning although you would think they would since there is a coffee machine in the lobby.

You have to leave a $100 cash deposit and when you check out, they actually go to your room to make sure it isn’t trashed.

Rooms are clean-ish. Wyndham…what is going on? Your brand is losing it if you think this place is ok.

The door handles, my goodness, fix them! It took us almost 5 minutes to get into our room and thereafter it was a pain anytime we wanted to open the door. Bottom of door has about 1 inch gap so all noise from outside comes in and I can only guess that any noise from inside the room also goes out. Tub had a vinyl mat/patch that didn't fully cover the scratches and wear in the tub. Construction noise at 6:20am just outside the hotel with the construction crew blocking off access within the hotel parking lot. Carpet in hallways looked relatively new but the carpet inside the rooms is way past the time for replacement with bare spots and dark patches everywhere. While the night staff was quite pleasant the daytime staff seemed indifferent. This is not a hotel I'd return to unless there was at least a full renovation and construction around it is complete.

Very well cared for property. They took some time to pay attention to the little things, for instance, when was the last time the liner for the ice bucket was actually large enough and thick enough to do its intended job? Given the pandemic and rooms not being serviced daily, how often do hotels provide extra coffee in the room? This hotel did both and although you should expect the room to be clean and have everything work as part of the contract, this is after all a Wyndham property and not something you can take for granted. This hotel really delivered and Wyndham should take notice and insist that properties under the Wyndham name maintain some standards.

If for some reason you’re between this hotel and club Destin, please read on. If this is TLDR, then look no further and stay at the Wingate in Destin. Let me give you a little story. I booked a get away for a week for my fiancé and I originally at Club Destin. I won’t go into details here(you could look for my review there if you want) but their rooms are horrendous and not as advertised. We stayed for one night and I had to have Amex carcierge help handle the situation with them. We stayed one night and left to go find a new hotel. We went to Wingate based on price and having a room available immediately. Shaneka at the front desk was beyond amazing. If you’re looking at this shaneka just know that my fiancé and I truly appreciate all that you’ve done. We were Frustrated and fed up our vacation felt like it was being ruined but she helped us get on track and find a room. She went above and beyond to look everywhere for the lowest rate to ensure that she gave us the best price. When she presented the amount to us it was LESS than club destin. We were thrilled to at least have a place to rest and sleep in the next few days that didn’t look and feel like a motel. Our room was excellent. Everything was clean and felt new. No sticky floor, no broken furniture, and the bathroom looked like it belonged in a resort room. Breakfast included is a huge plus, the pool and hot tub were also great too and very clean. Very good location and easy to get to everywhere walking or driving. Beach is a five minute walk, just cross the road and follow the paths. Housekeeping treated us right and got us anything we needed. At club destin we didn’t want to leave our stuff in the room unattended, but at the Wingate we felt like everything was secure and could be left there.

I’ve stayed everywhere, high end, low end, hotels, motels, everywhere. Is it like staying at a full on high end resort? No. but is it advertised correctly and has a staff that treats you like an actual person and not trying to bombard you with timeshare opportunities and are friendly? Yes. Even if the staff was okay, I’d still give this hotel a good rating based on price and their accommodations, but the staff is really the cherry on top and made this experience a memorable and enjoyable one.

The room was clean. Check in was quick and friendly. We even got an extra cot for $10 a night which I thought was reasonable. Showers were hot. Pool and hot tub clean. Basically on the strip so five minutes from attractions. Drag yourself out of bed for the breakfast. Bacon, sausage, eggs, make your own waffles with lots of toppings, bagels, muffins, fruit, juice and much more I can’t remember.

I had paid $60 for exact same room not $300 per night they charge. Bathrooms were dirty. Rude staff when I told them they didn’t clean the room two days and one day came at 3pm, The bathrooms need update, dirty and old.

I really like this property and have stayed 3 times in the last three years. The only problem is that in the winter, this place is affordable (January). In June-forget about it. The price went up $200/night and it’s not even on the beach. Also, the mattress was so old and soft-it made my back hurt. For the money this place charges, get new beds-come on! I will not recommend this hotel.

I enjoyed my stay at this property. If you are going for the beach this will be a good low cost option for you. It is not a luxury hotel but it is clean. Beach access is behind the pool with wooden steps up. So you will need to be able to climb steps to get to beach. There may be a ramp I don't remember. My point is you are not just going to walk out on to the beach on level ground. I was very happy with the place and I am a senior traveler at 63 years old.
