My hubs and I spent a few days at Sundestin resort in early October. The room was as expected, the weather was gorgeous with emerald blue water. I was a little disappointed in the beach view from the room’s balcony because it was a side view and more of a view of the next door condominium. But the main thing that bothered me was that you could not sit close to the water on the beach without renting from the chair and umbrella company. The last full day we were there, they had put out chairs/umbrellas 4 rows deep. If you have a tent, it must be behind their umbrella and chair placements. You cannot use your own umbrella. To get to the water, you had to navigate through the maze. This is Something to note before renting from SanDestin. Apparently this was common because as far as the eye could see, the beach was full of umbrellas in front of other resorts. Just something to remember should you visit.
