If you’re looking for the ultimate ro-
mantic escape, book your get-
away now at the Henderson Park
Inn. According to Condé Nast Jo-
hansens, “the Inn overlooks more
than a mile of the most pristine and
secluded white sandy beaches,
and has the most gorgeous views
in all of Destin. This is definitely the
most romantic luxury boutique
hotel on the Emerald Coast.” As
the only beachfront hotel in Destin,
Florida, it’s easy to see why the
Henderson Park Inn has become
a nationally recognized destina-
tion for honeymoons, anniver-
saries, and couples getaways.
The Inn’s setting is spectacular, sit-
uated directly on the beach, allow-
ing each room a vista of the Gulf
of Mexico and the pristine white
beaches of Florida’s Emerald
Coast. Guests can take advan-
tage of the location of Henderson
Park Inn, next to the beachside
State Preserve, by lounging on
complimentary beach chairs with
umbrellas, enjoying a picnic on the
beach with a gourmet boxed lunch
(also complimentary), or bicycling
down Scenic 98. At this adults-
only property, the beach exudes a
more private, quiet ambience on
the busy Emerald Coast.
As the only all-inclusive hotel in the
region, the Inn has earned the rep-
utation as one of the finest lodg-
ings in the area. Guestrooms are
elegant private sanctuaries and
evoke a feeling of relaxation and
serenity. Special amenities include
wine, grapes and flowers upon ar-
rival, all which make an overnight
stay quite a treat. All this - and the
Inn is right on the beach.
After a peaceful night sleeping to
the sound of the waves, guests
are treated to a breakfast like no
other at on-site “BeachWalk”
restaurant, the most awarded and
only fine-dining experience di-
rectly on the Gulf. For dining in
the evening (the only meal not in-
cluded in the cost of the stay), the
restaurant features a more inti-
mate casual atmosphere with din-
ing available inside with a cozy
fireplace and magnificent views of
the coast or outside on the veran-
das of the Inn overlooking the
turquoise waters of the Gulf. They
even offer a “Toes in the Sand Din-
ing” experience for the ultimate ro-
mantic evening!
Looking for more activities than re-
laxing at the beach, the Inn’s
guests have access to all the
amenities next door at the Inn’s
sister property, The Henderson, a
Salamander Beach & Spa Resort.
Home to two beautiful swimming
pools, couples will love spending
time at the Adults Only Pool, which
features a luxury cabana with
poolside beverage service.
Guests who want to keep up with
their workout routine can take ad-
vantage of The Henderson’s ex-
cellent fitness center. In addition to
the standard weights and ma-
chines, the fitness center offers a
variety of daily classes to enjoy,
with everything from yoga to in-
door cycling. For the ultimate in
relaxation, Henderson Park Inn
guests can book spa services in-
cluding couples massages, facials,
manicures, pedicures, mineral
scrubs, and more.
Few resorts offer more than a mile
of the world’s most beautiful, se-
cluded beaches and the ultimate
romantic experience. The guest
book says it all. The comments
from honeymooners and couples
celebrating anniversaries and
other special events are glowing.
Henderson Park knows romance
and provides such a relaxing at-
mosphere that everything else just
seems to disappear. Whatever
you left behind, when visiting the
Inn, it’s sure to be forgotten in
this
romantic
atmosphere.
