Miramar Beach Beckons: Check Out Hilton Sandestin’s Stunning Overhaul!
Located in Miramar Beach, nestled on the gorgeous Emerald Coast of Northwest Florida, the Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort and Spa has undergone an astonishing $35 million renovation just in time for its 40th anniversary. Guests are now treated to a brand-new experience filled with luxury, comfort, and breathtaking scenery.
The Hilton Sandestin, larger than life with 590 guest rooms and suites, effortlessly combines sophistication with a casual beach vibe. This upscale property is sandwiched between the shimmering waters of Choctawhatchee Bay on one side and the sparkling Gulf of Mexico on the other, making it the perfect spot to unwind.
Take a Walk in Style
The resort’s layout is much like a work of art with two stunning towers, the Spa Tower and the Emerald Tower. Each area is connected by a lovely lobby filled with inviting spaces and enticing dining options. The heart of the resort is undoubtedly the sundeck, where palm trees sway alongside cobalt blue umbrellas and multiple swimming pools. Talk about a tropical paradise!
When it comes to fun in the sun, guests can indulge in everything from lounging by the pool to exploring the beach. The team at the resort’s Beach Hut will set you up with your own comfy lounge chairs and an umbrella while you sip on your favorite drink and breathe in the salty air.
Rooms That Wow
My stay featured a spacious junior suite with a balcony that boasted stunning views of both the shimmering beach and the inviting swimming pools. The room itself was packed with conveniences like a sofa sleeper, a bunk bed niche complete with its own TV, and even a mini fridge for those late-night snacks.
A Seaside Spa Experience
No beach getaway is complete without some pampering, right? The newly renovated Serenity by the Sea Spa is a must-visit! Offering a wide range of treatments, including some amazing touchless wellness options, this spa is a sanctuary of relaxation. I tried the Swedish-style massage paired with a unique hydrojet massage that felt as soothing as the gentle waves outside.
Delicious Dining Awaits!
Food lovers rejoice! Hilton Sandestin offers an impressive array of six dining options, so you’re bound to find something that tickles your taste buds. Start your day with a hearty breakfast at Sandcastles Restaurant and transition later to fine dining at Seagar’s, where prime beef and fresh seafood reign supreme. You must try the mouthwatering bananas Foster – it’s a treat you won’t forget!
And if you’re hankering for something more casual, head over to Barefoot’s Beachside Bar & Grill for some tasty burgers and refreshing tropical cocktails. You can kick back and soak up the sun with a cold drink in hand!
Time for Some Fun!
Ready for some adventure? Take a complimentary tram to the Village of Baytowne Wharf. It’s like stepping into a charming fishing village filled with boutique shops, eateries, and live entertainment. Want a taste of real adventure? Try a cruise around Choctawhatchee Bay on the Solaris yacht and keep an eye out for playful dolphins!
I can’t forget mentioning our delightful encounter with Mary Ann, the bar’s ambassador blue-and-gold macaw at the Marina Bar & Grill. With a vocabulary that ranges from “Hello” to adorable kissing sounds, she was the cherry on top of our lovely day.
Wrapping It Up!
The revamped Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort and Spa is ready to welcome guests who are looking for the perfect mix of relaxation, luxury, and adventure on the Emerald Coast. So pack your bags and plan your escape—you won’t want to miss out on this beachfront paradise!
