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 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.

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.
