Destination Moon received a three out of five stars on the AllMusic website. Brad Chambers, host of “Martini In The Morning,"said of the album, “Deana singing Dean’s songs is a great way to get acquainted with Deana Martin. On “Destination Moon,"Deana is elevated into a new musical orbit. Out of this world performances on “Stuck In A Dream With Me"and “Where Did You Learn To Love Like That"show her ability to take a life well lived and interpret a song with the benefit of personal experience." [6] Lou Simon, program director for Siriusly Sinatra"on SiriusXM Satellite Radio, said, “Once again Deana Martin delivers a collection of performances that pay tribute to the songwriters and the gifts they gave us. Deana doesn’t just sing songs … she caresses the ballads, and has a ball with the up-tempo tunes, putting herself in the middle of it all like a true ‘girl singer.’ Her love affair with this music and her repertoire are testaments to a treasured past and a desire to never let these songs be forgotten." [7]
