A little while ago, I was lucky enough to win a trip to the Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa in Destin, Florida from blogger friend Beth at Mommy on a Shoestring. T and I made a lovely babymoon out of it and enjoyed a few days away to rest and relax before Baby P arrived! Although we went in their “off season,” which meant some remodeling was being done, outdoor restaurants were closed, etc., we still had a fabulous time and had practically the entire beach and resort to ourselves. It was mid 60s when we were there (which felt downright balmy to us Chicagoans), and I still managed to get some color so I was happy about that!
Ok enough typing, I’ll let the photos do the recap!
First off, the room was great. We were in the Spa Tower on the top floor in a HUGE room with a lovely Floridian feel…and there was a separate sink area outside the bathroom with a speaker that would project whatever was on the TV.
And we had a great view….never got sick of hearing the waves and breathing in that fresh air!
The grounds were quiet and empty, but gorgeous! Perfect for the taking. And everything from the furniture to the decor was so hip and trendy…
It was a lovely stay, with delicious food, relaxation and some warm-ish weather and picturesque views. Couldn’t ask for more!
And what kind of “style blogger” would I be if I didn’t document some outfit photos?!

Wow, you won that trip?! I think I need to take you gambling and rub your head or something. It looks like an amazing time!
I did :-) Between this and being on Wheel of Fortune, I think I’ve maxed my luck limit haha! It was SO nice…hard to be back with all this snow now- wa waaaaa.
I love Destin! My girlfriend’s parents have a condo there and I’ve been several times. This post has me wanting a trip!
Such a fab place…I’d totally go back again- especially on days like today when it took 2 hours to get home- ugh!
What an awesome giveaway to win!! It looks like you had a fun and relaxing time!
I know- and it couldn’t have come at a better time! So lucky!
Your trip sounded like such a wonderful time, Valerie! And oh my gosh, you couldn’t look any cuter with that adorable bump!!!
You are so sweet- thank you Brynn!
