About us

Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, a top-rated Florida destination, is the premier resort for meetings, incentives, and corporate retreats in Northwest Florida. Renowned for its seamless service, flawless execution, and exceptional facilities, Sandestin consistently delivers extraordinary experiences that inspire and connect. Recognized among the Top 50 Resorts in the World and named the #3 Resort in Florida by Condé Nast Traveler’s 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards, Sandestin continues to set the standard for excellence along the Emerald Coast. Spanning 2,400 acres between the Gulf of Mexico and the Choctawhatchee Bay, the resort features stunning sugar-white beaches, emerald-green waters, and an unmatched variety of recreational amenities — including four championship golf courses, 15 world-class tennis courts, 4 swimming pools, a 123-slip marina, fitness center, and full-service spa. At the heart of it all lies The Village of Baytowne Wharf, a vibrant 26-acre pedestrian village filled with boutique shopping, local dining, and lively nightlife. With over 65,000 square feet of flexible meeting and event space, Sandestin can host everything from intimate executive gatherings to large-scale conferences of up to 1,600 guests. The resort’s diverse venues include more than 25 breakout rooms, a 13,500-square-foot ballroom, a 12,600-square-foot exhibit hall, and four sophisticated boardrooms. The Linkside Conference Center has recently undergone a multi-million-dollar transformation, while the Baytowne Conference Center continues to evolve to meet the needs of today’s planners. Adding to Sandestin’s versatility is the luxury Hotel Effie Sandestin, Autograph Collection — a 250-room full-service hotel located adjacent to the Baytowne Conference Center. Hotel Effie offers 20,000 square feet of additional meeting space, including a 13,000-square-foot grand ballroom, seamlessly connecting to the conference center for effortless event flow. Beyond the boardroom, Sandestin provides endless opportunities for group activities and team-building. From championship golf tournaments and private beach bonfires to charter fishing adventures and customized team challenges — including ropes courses, zip lines, and paddleboarding — every program can be designed to engage and inspire. Whether hosting a high-level executive retreat, national sales meeting, or leadership conference, Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort offers the ideal blend of business and leisure, ensuring every event is as productive as it is memorable
