Hotel Effie Sandestin Resort, Autograph Collection - A luxury beachfront resort with rooftop pool, four championship golf courses, and French-inspired dining

A 250-room Miramar Beach hotel featuring the only rooftop pool on Florida's Emerald Coast overlooks the Choctawhatchee Bay and Gulf of Mexico. Hotel Effie Sandestin Resort offers four dining venues, including Ovide restaurant with French-influenced cuisine by Chef Hugh Acheson, Ara rooftop lounge, TLB lobby bar, and Sweetbay Coffee market. The property houses Spa Lilliana providing massage treatments and salon services, plus a state-of-the-art fitness center with Peloton bikes. With over 20000 square feet of meeting space and connection to Baytowne Conference Center, the resort accommodates large events and conferences. Guests have access to four championship golf courses designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., Rees Jones, and Tom Jackson. Located near Grand Boulevard shops and restaurants, Hotel Effie sits within Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, offering shuttle service to private beach areas with chair and umbrella rentals.

Pros

Direct access to seven miles of private beaches and pristine bayfront

Complimentary daily amenities including bicycle rentals, kayaks, tennis court access and resort-wide shuttle service

Located between Village of Baytowne Wharf entertainment district and Baytowne Marina

Partnership with Alaqua Animal Refuge offering pet-friendly accommodations and amenities

Cons

Beach access requires shuttle ride from hotel

Daily parking fees for both valet ($32) and self-parking ($25)

“Here's my take: this hotel certainly aims high, with a rooftop pool affording Gulf views that can't be beat. Ovide, the signature restaurant, is a definite draw, promising innovative Southern cuisine. I think the pet-friendly policy and beach access create broad appeal, but ultimately, it's the rooftop views that seal the deal.”
