What Our Guests Are Saying

What an amazing new offering!

"During our most recent visit to Sandestin we were able to stay at the new Osprey Pointe. We typically stay in the village area and although we’ve always enjoyed it, this time at Osprey Pointe we enjoyed a different stay. Amazing morning and sunsets views of the Bay from our own terrace, restful nights, and an implacably appointed unit. Can’t wait to go back to our new way of enjoying Sandestin!"

Millie O.

Great stay!

"Had a great weekend get-away with my girlfriend. Went to the beach club and enjoyed the beach front view. It was my girlfriend an I first time in Destin and would definitely go back. I will be going back."

Timothy R.

Excellent!

"We want to move to Florida now because of how great of a time we had! The Sandestin Resort was phenomenal! Go to the beach for a while, then the pool or kayaking and then enjoy the family friendly nightlife in the Baytowne Warf! It was all perfect! We cannot wait to get back to Destin for more fun!"

Family trip to Sandestin

"I recently had the pleasure to stay at the Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort. The amenities the resort offers are second to none. The amount of food options, activities for the kids and overall fun experiences for the whole family are plentiful. We stayed in a 4 bedroom unit at Villa Lago on property and the unit was amazing. I highly recommend this property if you’re looking for a family friendly place that has it all. Can’t say enough about the property, it’s staff and amenities!!"

TripAdvisor Guest

Amazing getaway!

"This place is amazing. The view from our balcony over the Bay was such a beautiful sight at night. The room was very spacious. We're got in late so we didn't get to take advantage of all that this place has to offer but we will definitely be back for a longer stay."

TripAdvisor Guest

Awesome Resort and Tennis

"The Sandestin Resort is awesome! There are plenty of housing options that are safe, clean, spacious, nicely appointed and very convenient to everything! The tennis facility and staff are great! The staff conducts excellent drills and round robins that are state of the art instruction and appropriate for any playing level. Absolutely awesome tennis experience on well maintained clay courts!"
