There are several budget hotels in Destin. Try to find one near the Home Depot or between it and your place.
I did a rate check for the Sleep Inn by the outlet mall, and got $71/night (internet rate) for this weekend. Holiday Inn Express by Barnes & Noble for same dates is about the same.
Hibiscus Coffee and Guest House, in Grayton Beach, is no hotel, but it does have very affordable rates, and it includes a delicious breakfast of your choice. The Magnolia Room is their least expensive, and is priced at $95 per night. You will truly love Hibiscus and Cheri Peoples, who operates it. 
I recommend the Sumatra Coffee and Blueberry Pancakes. YUMMY!

We don't need anything big or fancy-fancy, just a clean room to shower & sleep. We'll be spending most of our time between Home Depot & working on the house.
That's a fun weekend at the beach isn't it !
lol
I am as curious as a cat.....do you have tenants living in your house? That's the only reason I can think you are not staying in your place!

Yes we do. They're great.
One of the showers is leaking real bad, plus a few other things. It's easier just to drive down & make the repairs ourselves. I'm lucky to have married a man who not only knows everything about computers, but can build and fix just about anything. :clap_1:
(the only thing he lacks is the ability to find matching black socks)

Ah ha!!! Your man sounds great....a real keeper! Mr. K is very handy as well, and matching his socks is one of my greatest pleasures!

ATorretto, I am lucky enough to have a husband who's the same as yours (right down to the socks ;-) ). And you've just given me the BEST argument for a trip to SoWal. I'll just tell Merman that whenever our place has minor problems, HE is the only one who can attend to the repairs, and of course his wife-moi--will have to come down as well, to supervise. :clap_1:
Seriously, though. It speaks well of you that you want to make things right for your tenants. I hope you get some beach time in in between maintenance and repairs!
