Golf Resort & Spa
By Cathleen Bode
Situated on the Palm Coast, this sprawling, upscale resort is 23 miles from St. Augustine and 33 miles from Daytona Beach.
It is less than 1.5 hours drive from Orlando, FL, which is great for that quick, much needed break from all the hustle & bustle of everyday life. Just imagine…you can be there relaxing on a beautiful stretch of warm, golden sand beach with your significant other, or, frolicking about at the 91,000-square-foot Fantasy Pool complex complete with waterslide and lazy river with your kids! This beautiful property has accommodations to suit small to large family gatherings with style.
Calling all golf enthusiasts — there are two of Florida’s top rated golf courses — the Jack Nicklaus designed Ocean Course and the Tom Watson designed Conservatory Course. Nestled along the shoreline and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, is the Jack Nicklaus-designed Ocean Course with breathtaking views. And the Conservatory Course, designed by Tom Watson, is highlighted by waterfalls, babbling brooks, and field stone work. They are both challenging and awe-inspiring!
For all the foodies out there look no further than the Hammock Beach Golf Resort & Spa for 8 diverse & delicious dining venues from the casual to upscale.
Their ocean view signature restaurant called the Atlantic Grille serves-up amazing, freshly shucked oysters on the half shell with horseradish, cocktail sauce with a squeeze of lemon and it paired well with a Belvedere martini! They also serve-up breakfast for kings and delightful lunches indeed.
Delfinos Italian Chophouse a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence recipient 2023 is the place to be and be seen! With homemade Italian cuisine that will satisfy even the most refined palate and served with top notch service. Enjoy dining in this gorgeous restaurant which offers an extensive wine list and good spirits.
Drinking good wine with good food in good company is one of life’s most civilized pleasures — Michael Broadbent.
