10 Essential Things To Pack When Staying in a Destin Florida Beachfront Hotel

Congratulations! You’re on your way to enjoying one of the greatest vacations you have ever had, and the best part is, you chose our Destin Florida beachfront hotel as your destination. A beach vacation has a few unique qualities that some other types of vacations don’t, which means there are a few things you will want to remember while packing. We know you have clothing, accessories, emergency supplies and everything else under control, but don’t forget these essentials for your days of fun out in the water and sun!

1. Bathing Suit

Of course if you are planning on splashing around in the waves or working on your tan, you will want to bring a bathing suit or two along with you. Other than your friends and family, this number one essential is the most important piece to enjoying some sunshine on the beaches of Destin, Florida.

2. Sunscreen

While you are soaking up the sun at our Destin Florida beachfront hotel it is a good idea to bring along your sunscreen. The Florida sun rays are hot and strong, and you don’t want to get sunburned on your vacation. We suggest applying it often for the best protection.

3. Sunglasses

You can’t forget your sunglasses when you are hanging around at the beach. Not only are the sunrays strong, but they are also very bright. Your sunglasses will help you to see better by shielding your eyes from the bright rays.

4. Hat

One of the most common places for a sunburn is the top of your head. It is a part of our body we often forget to protect, which is why a hat is a good idea for you to pack when spending hours in the sun. A hat can also help protect parts of your face as well.

5. Water Shoes

Whether you prefer water shoes, sandals or flip flops, some kind of protection for your feet is important. When you are walking from our Destin Florida beachfront hotel to the beach, any surface you encounter in the sun is probably extremely hot, including the sand. To keep from stepping on hot surfaces and other harmful objects, shoes are necessary.

6. Beach Toys

Whether you are 5 or 55, we all enjoy a little fun in the sun. The detailed task of building a sand castle is one we all love, and it can be very relaxing. Not to mention it can also be very romantic to write a love message to your significant other in the sand.

7. Reading Materials

Reading is one of the most relaxing activities you can enjoy anywhere, but it is even better when you are enjoying it by the water. Whichever type of materials you choose to read, whether it be a book, magazine, newspaper or ebook on a mobile device, they are all great for the beach.

8. Beach Bag

You can’t forget your beach bag to put all of your items in you are planning on carrying to the beach. A beach bag makes it convenient and easy to get all of your things where you need them for the day. Also, don’t forget our Destin Florida beachfront hotel provides you with towels, chairs and umbrellas, so you don’t have to worry about bringing them from home.

9. Bathing Suit Cover-Up

You never know when you might decide to leave the beach and grab something you need from your room or a nearby store. This is where a bathing suit cover-up is needed. You can just slip it over your suit to go wherever is necessary without worrying about changing out of your beach attire.

10. Water and Snacks

If you are planning on spending hours at a time in the sun, it is very important that you stay hydrated. That is why it is a good idea to bring water and a few snacks with you to take to the beach. Water and snacks will keep you feeling great without getting dehydrated.
