OPEN: Hotel Effie in Sandestin, Florida boasts rooftop pool, Top Chef


The 10-story building has seven floors of guest rooms, 20,000 square feet of meeting space and a parking garage below the main floor.
The hotel also features culinary concepts by celebrity chef Hugh Acheson, a spa and fitness center and the area’s only hotel rooftop pool and lounge, and is within walking distance of The Village of Baytowne Wharf.
