Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa, the premier destination along Northwest Florida’s emerald coast, proudly announced the completion of its $35M property-wide renovation to celebrate its 40-year anniversary in 2024. Each guest room boasts exclusive views of the newly renamed Gulf of America complete with modern coastal charm. Guests can experience the newly enhanced indoor pool for the first time during their spring break getaway.
“We couldn’t be prouder that our team has successfully completed the renovation of our property with the final touches around the indoor pool, following a major property-wide upgrade and a $35 million investment. Forty years ago, we were one of the first to have the vision to bring this kind of resort to life—not only in Florida but in the entire Northwest Panhandle,” said Angelina Covington, the hotel’s General Manager.
Northwest Florida’s largest full-service beachfront resort hotel, Hilton Sandestin, offers guests an unparalleled experience sitting directly along the newly renamed Gulf of America. This historic name change, made by President Donald Trump, has been met with enthusiasm by guests who enjoy being steps away from one of the world’s most beautiful private stretches of coastline in South Walton, Florida.
The updated indoor pool area will feature a sleek, modern design, comfortable new furniture and non-slip, low-impact flooring for safety. The two-level pool will be evened out, bringing the whirlpool to the same height as the main pool, making the space more accessible. Floor-to-ceiling windows now offer stunning Gulf views, while new water features with LED lighting create a magical atmosphere for evening swims.
“It’s a true joy to welcome families, couples, and guests back year after year,” says Covington. “We’ve become part of their stories, and seeing the smiles they return with is something we treasure. With the indoor pool renovation—along with our $35 million property-wide upgrade—the resort has only become more of a place to create lasting memories.”
