There are both smoking and non-smoking rooms here
If you are a non-smoker, be sure to check out your room upon checking in, as Wingate Wyndham Destin has both smoking and non-smoking rooms. Sometimes the hotel will put you in a room where smokers have stayed and that stale smell of second-hand smoke is still prevalent. Of course, if this is bothersome, the front desk staff will be happy to move you to a real non-smoking room.
negative:
The Wi-Fi is spotty
The Internet connection can be iffy at Wingate by Wyndham Destin which could be problematic if you are travelling on business or need to get an email out in a hurry. The reception seems to be more consistent in the public spaces, so at least you do have an option.
negative:
Pets are not allowed here
Other than service animals, pets are not welcome here which is unfortunate for those who like to travel with their favorite canine companions.
