Henderson Beach Resort - Destin, Florida

TheMatador E

Come da titolo. PREGO LEGGERE CON ATTENZIONE SINO IN FONDO.||Di sicuro la migliore location in zona ( poco turismo straniero a parte appassionati di golf ) Buono sia come posizione sia come confort.||Albergo di recente costruzione , buono lo stile , gli arredi ed i suppellettili , buone le dimensioni ( solo 4 piani di altezza ben integrato nel paesaggio ) in posizione leggermente arretrata rispetto al mare ( direi 200 metri circa dell'edificio principale ).||Si trova in una delle migliori posizioni a fianco dell'omonimo parco Henderson. ||Buona l'accoglienza alla reception anche se addebitano un bel $100 dollari su pre autorizzazione non concordati in fase di prenotazione ( per i danni camera ) per questo motivo tolgo un pallino dalla votazione finale per la poca chiarezza e trasparenza.||Arredi sobri , funzionali e perfettamente mantenuti. ||Valida la pulizia ed ordine generale. ||Premetto che in alberghi di queste dimensioni e con varie tipologie di camera , il voto ed il giudizio può variare ed anche di molto , nel nostro caso avevamo una camera con vista giardino. ||Mio voto vs confort camera : ||Insonorizzazione : voto 5 , buona verso esterno mentre pessima tra le camere ( si sente tutto sopratutto dei vicini al piano ) ||Letto/lenzuola/cuscini : voto 6 , buona qualità , cuscini e materasso un poco morbidi per i miei gusti. ||Climatizzazione d'avanguardia ( vedi termostato Nest ) ma alla fine si é rilevata poco efficace a causa della scarsa ripresa dell'aria della camera.||Qualità del sonno solo MEDIOCRE.||Bagno voto 7 : dimensioni buone , buono l'accesso. Disponibile classica vasca dei puffi ( leggermente più grande del solito ) Acqua : buono il flusso dell'acqua temperatura stabile. Prodotti da bagno di qualità buona ed in quantità corretta. ||Molto valida la qualità degli asciugamani ( anche piscina e beach ) ||TVC : Lcd 50” circa , recente e di ottima qualità , disponibile decoder interattivo , cambio canali discreto, nessun canale italiano 🙁 , voto 7||Internet & wireless : Wireless gratuito con password univoca consegnata alla reception , prestazioni però solo mediocri, voto 6 ||Disponibile in camera sia frigor ( vuoto ) e bollitore.||2 sono le piscine esterne ( una per soli adulti ed una più grande per le famiglie ) ||Plus :||- Posizione, ||- Albergo nuovo, ||- Arredi e rivestimenti di buon gusto, ||- Buon accesso e vicinanza a spiaggia. ||- Piscine ampie, ||- Spiaggia molto valida , ||Minus : ||- Climatizzazione non efficiente, ||- Insonorizzazione tra camere mediocre, ||- in fase di check in & out addebitano su pre autorizzazione $ 100 a notte non concordati in fase di prenotazione,||- Wireless poco performante,||- Parcheggio a pagamento ( $ 15 dollari all'aperto , dista 30 metri ingresso ) , ||- Assegnata camera per diversamente abili senza avvisare.||Rapporto qualità/prezzo INSUFFICIENTE calcolando il rating generale.||Fino a qui avevo giudicato 3 pallini ! ( quindi nella media ) ma al nostro ritorno a casa abbiamo verificato una cosa incredibile per un albergo del genere : alla nostra partenza abbiamo pagato cash il parcheggio ( meno di 20 dollari ) e loro cosa fanno ? addebitano lo stesso la spesa sulla pre autorizzazione della carta di credito che avevano chiesto ( cmq non concordata in fase di prenotazione ) sui danni camere. Sentite bene , gli ho scritto varie email ( mai risposto ) ho fatto pure claim e pur avendo inviato scan della fattura ( pagata cash ) ed anche la descrizione della persona alla reception ed orario cheCk out , UDITE UDITE , HANNO RIFIUTATO IL RIMBORSO DI 18 DOLLARI !||Pazzesco , mai accaduto in oltre 40 anni di viaggi in tutto il mondo !||Una cosa che Ti puoi aspettare forse nel terzo mondo ma di sicuro non negli States !||STATE ALLA LARGA , OPPURE ANDATE CON LE MUTANDE DI FERRO.

This year we are celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary! We had the most special wedding here last year with our closest family and friends. We love everything about The Henderson from the beautiful emerald waters and white sands to the delicious food and fantastic staff. Everyone is so friendly here. Egzon always greets us with a smile and provides excellent service at Primrose and Horizons. He even remembered that we got married here last year. Edit is wonderful too at The Beach Walk Cafe and both helped to make our anniversary trip special. Mary and Sergen were also great! The Henderson is our special place and we plan to return for many more memories together.

3rd time staying here. Always excellent. Unfortunately we had a sick kid and needed bedding and towels changed… no one actually came to clean unless I called down or flagged down a Spanish speaking housekeeper. So that was frustrating. Room service was fast and hot. Great pool but the older pool was freezing and so had to go to the newer pool bc it was heated….. The staff at the main pool was excellent on drinks and food…. We also had a miscommunication- arrived late and the night desk guy told me we had 4 free drinks per day. On checkout I found it was four for the stay! They did give me an extra $100 credit so I appreciate them trying to make it better. Overall would stay again

Update: coming back a year later for our anniversary has been just as wonderful as the previous year. We have loved seeing some of the same staff (Robert, Valerie, Luis, Srdge) and meeting new staff like Rachel and Dexter! This place is a stellar vacation and I really think what makes it is the hospitality. The staff makes an effort to remember you and ask how you’re doing and I think that that’s why we plan to keep coming back here! -ash and Linton, October 2024||We love this place! Will probably leave multiple good reviews for this experience. Loved Egzon as our server at the Henderson Resort Horizons Bar/Restaurant. Classy and down to earth all at the same time. Enjoyed the views, ambience, food, and drink. -ash, October 2023

Second stay at the resort, we love it however this stay we self parked and our freshly detailed truck was covered in cement and brick dust from construction. We were still charged for self park and they didn’t seem to care the construction workers were cutting stone right next to the parking lot. The response was unbelievable for a resort of this caliber. Front desk acted as if they didn’t care and noted that they couldn’t tell them where they could cut and saw on brick for the new additions.

Had a wonderful stay at this beach resort. It is very family-friendly and walking distance from the beautiful beaches of Destin. It’s not right on the beach, but I think there’s another portion that is right on the beach. They had a very large pool area with a restaurant and bar outside located by the pool. Is also surrounded by a lazy river. The service was very good while we were here. We had a plated at steak and lobster dinner and it was absolutely delicious food. The rooms are not really my style because it is more of an old-fashioned look and I prefer the modern look. They had live entertainment at the upstairs bar. The property was well maintained and clean. They have an on site spa and multiple restaurants. Also they had crafts and lots of family friendly activities.I recommend and would definitely return.

This my first time visiting destin and Henderson Beach Resort made it amazing . It’s so close to crystal clear emerald coast beach access. The room had amazing view of the beach.
Staff were so friendly.
The Room they signed for us was just stunning with such a nice surprise gift cookies for our special day.
I would say the overall experience in Henderson Beach Resort have been excellent.

We will return again! Fantastic!

We came here for our baby moon for labor day weekend 2024. First time experiencing the Gulf beaches, and it did not disappoint!
1. The beach: private access for resort guests, not crowded at all, water is warm, waves are minimal, sand is white and overall it's super clean! There's a cabana with towels for guests and you can rent beach chairs and umbrella. Probably worth bringing your own, if you can.
2. The hotel facilities: extremely clean and very well maintained. We had a king size bed with Gulf overlook, and having breakfast in the balcony overlooking the ocean was ?. There are 2 pools, one is adult only which was nice to relax.
3. Activities: maybe it was because we came on a holiday weekend, but there was stuff going on all the time. Mostly family-oriented, and it was fun to participate! We won to ice cream coupons at family trivia 🙂
4. The spa: awesome experience. We had massages and they were both mostly covered in the price of our spa getaway package. You can also use the facilities that include a spa pool, special showers and a sauna.

Overall, I would definitely come back, especially with children!
