Sandestin is an all-inclusive resort in Destin, Florida.

We’ve lived in Sandestin for several years and we’re constantly having fun. Sandestin is about 2,400 acres, but has a small time feel.

The resort straddles Highway 98 and hugs up against Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The resort truly has everything.

Got a boat? They have a marina.

Want to golf? Four courses await.

Hungry? About a dozen eateries – ranging from high-end, sosphiticated meals to a 50s hamburger joint – inhabit the Village of Baytowne Wharf. Along with several bars and a lagoon that kids can zip line across.

Shopping and more places to eat are right next door in Grand Boulevard. Restaurants like Tommy Bahama, Cantina Laredo, Flemming’s and Mitchell’s Fish Market are ready for your reservation. There are also numerous shops, and a Publix Supermarket to provide you with what ever you need.

But the best feature of the resort is the wide, white stretches of sugary sandy beaches. Grab a beach chair and lounge under the umbrella with a book, or spread out a beach towel and soak up the Florida sun. And the warm emerald waters sooth the urban weary soul.

Owners can scoot around on their Golf Cart, and Christina and I take full advantage. Living in Sandestin has be an incredible opportunity for us both and we love to call the resort home. There are plenty of homes, condos and lots available to choose from. The market is ready for first-time buyers. So call Christina today at 850.974.9704.
