Beach Adventuring to the Max

What does fun mean on vacation? It depends on who you ask. Maybe it involves sandcastle building and pool swimming or kayaking adventures. Whatever it is, fun typically starts at one of our family-friendly hotels.

The Holiday Inn Resort Fort Walton Beach will pamper you with a heated lazy river pool, entertain you with a beachside tiki bar, and woo the kids, too, with seasonal activities for the mermaids and pirates in the family. Choose your view when you select a room and love every minute of your stay in Destin-Fort Walton Beach.

If you hope to bring your pet along, plenty of hotels like Residence Inn Fort Walton Beach are pet-friendly and welcome you and your best friend to splash in the tides and kick up sand on your next family beach vacation.

Relaxation Mode

What is a beach vacation without an off-switch? Choose a hotel that knows what true relaxation is and enjoy quality downtime with your significant other.

Tucked between the sweeping aqua-marine of the Gulf and the lush green of Henderson Beach State Park is the Henderson Beach Resort and Spa. Many of its stylish and locally-curated guest rooms and suites feature scenic Gulf or pool views and balconies. When you’re not at the spa, enjoy the resort’s private beach and watersport rentals like kayaks and stand-up paddleboards.

Henderson Park Inn is a luxury boutique hotel with some of the most enticing views of the area. Overlooking the pristine white-sand beach and offering romantic add-ons like a gourmet picnic on the beach, the hotel’s restaurants and romantic rooms and suites make the perfect backdrop for your getaway.

Island Life is for Everyone

Choose a hotel along the beaches of the unique and stunning Okaloosa Island, where marine-life watching, fishing and margarita-sippin’ along the boardwalk are part of everyday life.

The Island Resort at Fort Walton Beach is perfect for family vacations, weekend getaways with friends, and even romantic escapes. Swim up to The Grotto Bar for a fresh-blended cocktail or discover magic with the kiddos when you meet the resort’s resident mermaid. And when it’s time to turn in, choose from one of the resort’s four buildings featuring magnificent views of the Gulf, pool, or lush gardens.

The Hilton Garden Inn Fort Walton Beach has multiple Gulf-front and inland view rooms and suites to accommodate all groups, including couples, friends and families. Guests can enjoy outdoor amenities like the pool, lazy river and tiki bar.

Whatever brings you to Destin-Fort Walton Beach, enjoy a hotel stay perfect for you and yours.
