Hilton Sandestin Expands Meeting Space
May 12, 2015
The Coastal Ballroom.
Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa — one of the South’s premier beachfront meeting destinations and the largest full-service beachfront resort hotel on Northwest Florida’s Gulf Coast — now offers a third, 7,500-sf ballroom, and has expanded and enhanced the award-winning Serenity by the sea Spa.
Completed in March, the Coastal Ballroom addition included expansion to prefunction space, restroom facilities and permanent registration areas. The additional space provides meeting planners with more than 23,000 sf of ballroom and event space on a single level, with approximately 10,000 sf of additional prefunction area to support the three ballrooms. With nearly 40,000 sf of indoor meeting space and 20,000 sf of outdoor event space, the resort can now accommodate larger conferences and events and provide additional flexibility for group activities and breakouts.
The award-winning Serenity by the sea Spa has completed a major overhaul. The spa was expanded by 3,000 sf, providing more space for guests in the women’s locker room, lounge facilities and new group relaxation area. The spa also now offers a separate and expanded salon for hair and makeup, as well as a separate nail salon. The new area totals 14,500 sf and includes an all-new fitness center offering 24-hour guest access, updated reception area, retail area and new tile/paint accents throughout the spa.
Over the last three years, Hilton Sandestin Beach has spent more than $30 million on transformations touching every aspect of the property, from award-winning meeting space and guest rooms to public areas and restaurants.
The resort accommodates groups from 10 to more than 2,000 persons.
