4 Reasons You'll Want To Stay At Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa

Counting down the days until I can make my way back to Miramar Beach again! Cindy and I had such a fun weekend last month filled with great food, drinks, a spa day and a lot of relaxation. I mean what more could you ask for?! Whether you are planning a girls weekend, family trip or a romantic getaway, I’m giving you all the deets about why you’ll want to stay at Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa.

1. LOcation-

Hilton Sandestin is a beautiful beachfront destination that gives you front row seats to the sugar white sands of the Emerald Coast. The photo above was taken from our hotel room balcony. In the words of Chandler Bing, “could it be more beautiful?” 🙂 Not only are you on the beachfront but this resort is just a short drive away from shopping, dining, entertainment centers and state parks!

With the hotels amazing location, it also keeps you close to many local happenings. We were there during the 30A Songwriters Music Festival so we took the shuttle bus for a less than 3 minute drive to the venue.

2. Rooms

Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa has approximately 590 rooms that are a mix of traditional hotel rooms, deluxe junior suites, family parlor suites, ambassador suites and 2 extra special suites, The Presidential Suites. There are two towers on property and we stayed in the Spa Tower. The other tower is the one that had the family parlor suites which look amazing for a family vacation. I mean what kid doesn’t like bunk beds right?! And there is a separate living area in these rooms with sleeping sofa so it’s spacious with privacy.

I can’t wait to experience this stay with the kids!

3. Dining Options

From gourmet to room service, Hilton Sandestin has got you covered. We had the pleasure of dining at 4 of their signature restaurants in addition to taking advantage of in-room dining after dancing in the rain at 30A Songwriter’s Music Festival.

I can tell you firsthand that you don’t want to miss the delicious and creative creations at Hadashi Sushi Bar or the Tuna Tartare and Key Lime Martini at Seagar’s. Everyone we spoke to during the trip told us we had to eat at Seagar’s and I am so glad we decided to pop in on the last night. I was kind of mad at myself for not coming in sooner but honestly I may not have eaten anywhere else if I had dined at Seagar’s first lol. The ambiance was so swanky. There was a pianist to set the mood. It would be a great spot for a date night but Cindy and I also enjoyed our girls night there!

Barefoot’s Beachside Bar & Grill is closed during this time of year but is the properties most popular dining spot as it sits overlooking the beautiful oceanside view alongside the 2 outdoor hotel pools. So bummed we didn’t get to experience it but yet another reason I need to make my way back to Hilton Sandestin this summer!

4. Amenities

In addition to the breathtaking beachfront, Hilton Sandestin Beach Resort has several sought after amenities. Guest have full access to the four, award-winning, championship golf courses – Raven Golf Club, Burnt Pine Golf Club, Baytowne Golf Club and The Links Golf Club and if you aren’t pro just yet you also have access to The Dunes putting course at Sandestin.

If golf isn’t your thing, you can take indulge in the offerings at Serenity by the Sea Spa. Cindy and I got amazing massages and spent a few hours relaxing at the full day with spa mimosas in hand. You could also book a facial, mani/pedi, or get your hair done at the salon!

We took advantage of all of the time we could on the beautiful, soft white sands. All guests are provided chairs, umbrellas and towels when reserved. There is also a designated area for Hilton Sandestin guests on the beach so it never feels too crowded. If you wanted a break from the sand, you have the option of enjoying 2 outdoor pools or the indoor pool.

I also spent one early morning in the 24 hour fitness area to burn off some of that yummy food but there are tennis courts, bike rentals and a yoga room if those are more of your thing.

Because we went at the end of January we did not partake in any of the water activites like snorkeling, paddle boarding or kayaking but Hilton Sandestin can help you get those activities set up too.

The Kids Krew and Kids Night Out program is another Hilton Sandestin offering that they are working hard at to bring back. It’s a program where kids get to meet other kids, partake in fun activities all while Mom and Dad get to enjoy some one on one time and all us mama’s know we need that!
