Area Attractions:
Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate-themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters, and Bass Pro Shops.Â
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Â Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach Access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

We were not aware of the change in TV streaming, nor any info how to operate the new tv system. We also like the sofa on the other wall. There were 3 roaches in the bathroom ( at different times) but the condo was very clean ( that’s why I have 4 stars). We do LOVE this condo and will stay there again!

A great week, great weather, and great lodging experience. Capri Motel is indeed the best kept secret along old 98. A retro, throwback-style motor lodge from back in the day, but all units upgraded and current. Especially newly renovated Room 122 made our stay even that much better and comfortable. Quiet, comfortable, and room enough for your evening after a long day at the beach or shopping.Just steps to the beach from any front door of the Capri Motel, plus beach service provided. No shlepping luggage or beach gear up and down stairs, across busy streets, or long hauls in from the car.And only steps or short drive to lots of great restaurants and shopping!!We certainly picked a very good week to come to Destin, as the water was the clearest we have ever seen in coming to Destin for nearly 30 years; chilly on first plunge, but quite do-able after that. And daily dolphin pod sightings each afternoon within yards of the beach.Highly recommend the Capri Motel.- Reviewed On: 5/3/2019

The cutest little condo with everything you could possibly need. It’s located in a great community and only steps away from the beach.
