    gorgeous decor
    rooftop pool

    I was blown away by the gorgeous decor throughout the hotel—it felt like a chic oasis! I loved lounging by the rooftop pool, soaking in the stunning views and great atmosphere, especially during those adult-only hours. The complimentary welcome cocktails set the perfect tone for relaxation from the moment I arrived!

    delicious omelettes
    valet service
    seafood
    slow service
    lack of laundry service

    The omelettes at the hotel restaurant are to die for! Pair that with the mouthwatering seafood at nearby Mitchell's Fish Market, and you're in culinary heaven. Also, the valet parking service just screams classy. You feel pampered from the get-go!

    I wish we had laundry service. It would be a lifesaver for families or long stays. Also, though the staff was friendly, they were a tad slow on requests.

    The property was upscale with elegant landscaping and beautifully designed interiors. The fresh flowers in the lobby added a lovely touch, and everything was spotless. The staff were professionals, knowledgeable about the area, and went out of their way to ensure a fantastic dining experience. Special thanks to Tim, the food and beverage manager, and the talented chef who made our meals memorable!

    No complaints during my stay.

    Amazing stay in the ADA Junior Suite with roll-in shower! The spa was fantastic, offering multiple massage treatments that were so relaxing. Also, the balcony provided a nice space to unwind and enjoy the views. Staff was super friendly, and we loved the clean, accessible amenities throughout the hotel.

    chic hotel
    friendly staff
    limited dining options

    The hotel is chic and squeaky clean! Loved the fabulous location and friendly staff. However, the dining options left us pining for better choices—had to eat out more than I’d like to admit!

    It took ages to get towels from the front desk! I thought I’d aged into a lovely old lady waiting for a cuppa!

    excellent breakfast

    We spent 3 nights in a very clean room with a magnificent breakfast that was simply excellent. The staff were super attentive, especially the parking valets who were ready to assist us at every turn

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but you know what they say, quality comes at a price.

    parking fees

    I enjoyed my stay at Effie Sandestin with its beautiful design and clean spaces. The staff were generally friendly, although there were some moments of carelessness. The stunning beach made the experience worthwhile, despite a few nuisances like parking fees and a long walk to the sand.

    rooftop pool
    hydration stations
    attentive staff
    beach access
    shuttle ride

    The stay was enjoyable, especially the rooftop pool which was a highlight for my daughter. We appreciated the hydration stations on each floor, which added a nice touch to our experience. It's worth mentioning that the so-called private beach access was a bit disappointing, as it required reservations and a shuttle ride, contrary to our expectations of walking directly to the beach. the staff was attentive, and the hotel was clean, providing a pleasant retreat during our family trip.
