With spring break upon us, family travelers seek out the best destinations and accommodations to appeal to all members — and generations — of the family. One such place: Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa, an all-encompassing, family-friendly coastal getaway along Northwest Florida’s emerald coastline. Perfect for multigenerational travel, travelers find beachfront accommodations, elevated dining, kid-friendly programming, a full-service spa and more under one roof.
And the destination is now more accessible than ever, with a new wave of non-stop routes to and from Destin–Fort Walton Beach, including from Miami (MIA), New York (JFK) and Boston (BOS). Hilton Sandestin sits just a short drive from the airport, with special rates currently on offer for residents of Florida, Texas and the Midwest.
Eligible guests can save up to 10 percent with the Florida Resident Offer, Texas Resident Offer and Heartland Resident Offer. Additionally, in celebration of the new non-stop routes, the brand-new Northeast Retreat Rate is now bookable for stays March 5–Dec. 31. Find all current offers here.
With a variety of room types, family configurations can find a space to comfortably accommodate their needs. Some guestrooms even boast bunk bed enclaves, and each room features a private balcony.
The resort’s spring programming features kid-approved seasonal activities and amenities such as poolside games, beach bonfires, soft water sports, multiple beachfront pools, a freshly renovated indoor pool, beachside yoga, spa treatments and more.
An exceptional dining experience awaits at Seagar’s Prime Steaks & Seafood, the area’s only AAA Four Diamond steakhouse. For other options, the resort offers several on-site venues, from beachfront dining to relaxed, family-friendly restaurants.
The resort offers a complimentary shuttle service to downtown Village of Baytowne Wharf, a favorite destination known for local shops, live music and entertainment.

Sep 17, 2026High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture
It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
