I noticed there is a second location in Regatta Bay.
It seems like Regions is a good bank... I don't have any complaints.

We use Trustmark, location in Seagrove, Destin and PCB. Small, local bank.
Stay away from Regions...... they are getting a very bad reputation throughout the southest. I don't bank there anymore and can't vouch for the local branches in SoWal. The corporate policies are why they are getting a bad rep.
See; www.badregions.com; many past employees have posted their stories. Have a look and make your own determination.

I used to use a smaller local bank, still do, for smaller accounts. A few years back a family member was very happy with account structures, int. earnings, etc...and encouraged me to go to Regions and speak to the manager. Which I did. Regions used to be Amsouth and I didn't like the big corp. mentality and I wanted home town kind of service. I was skeptical...but opened an account and have been very happy. I get personal service, corporate type services, LOC's for business as well as personal, mortgage. I'm glad I gave them a try and now Regions is my primary bank. Service is great and friendly.
I read some of the link above, not much, but what I did read seems like a bunch of disgruntled people who have to blame someone for their money problems. It didn't prove anything to me.
All of my accounts are small, and I primarily use BankTrust and Eglin Federal Credit Union. We also have an account with FNBT to keep my insurance drafts and Paypal transactions out of my main checking account and to give me and Denise, the branch manager, an excuse to chat about our beloved Seminoles. 
Technically we also have an account with Tyndall FCU, but that's only because they draft my vehicle payment biweekly.
I'm not real fond of Regions - just has a "corporate" feel to it. Of course, if it is corporate services you need, they might be fine.

I loved Regions until the merger, now...not so much. I will say that the staff at the Watercolor branch is really great though....it's not their fault.
I havent had any problem with Wachovia, see Sally at The Village of Bayetowne Wharf, shes very helpful,
all my accounts are small too
,I like Trustmart because it hasn't been bought out in 40 plus years.
