Youngsters at the Beach

Traveling with young children can be tough. If you’re looking for a family resort in Florida that caters to those with children under five years old (with kid-friendly amenities and access to safe kids beach games and toys) Hilton Sandestin Beach is a perfect location for you. Below, we’ve created a personalized travel itinerary for families traveling with youngsters.

Day 1

If you’re looking for things to do at the beach with kids, come splash around in the gentle waves or play in the sugar-white sands on our beautiful beach. Or take advantage of our outdoor toddler pool, which is open from 7am to 5pm daily. If the sun gets a bit too intense, we’ll happily reserve beach umbrellas or a poolside cabana for your and your family to give your little ones some shade to play in. For an afternoon snack, check out the grab-and-go items at Picnix Poolside Market, a convenient poolside dining option. When nap time rolls around, remember that our resort offers cribs and pack-and-plays with bedding. Or, if your little one is up to it, they can nap in their own bunk bed, one of the child-friendly amenities offered in all of our Emerald Tower rooms.

Day 2

After breakfast at Sandcastles Restaurant, head to Destin Commons for some family friendly activities like a stroll through the open-air shopping center, or a quick splash in the outdoor, interactive fountain. Kids will also enjoy the Pirate's Cove soft play area — a safe spot to let your little one run around and explore. Return to the resort and enjoy some you time in the afternoon — speak to our concierge to arrange on-site childcare services so that you and your partner can enjoy a couples massage at Serenity by the sea Spa. Then, regroup for dinner together and retreat to your suite for a relaxing bedtime tuck-in.

Day 3

Head to Topsail Hill Preserve State Park for a family picnic on Santa Rosa Beach. Or, take a family shopping trip at nearby Silver Sands Premium Outlets. Then, start planning your next family vacation to Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa.
