5 Tips for Getting the Best Deal When You Vacation at the Henderson Park Inn

Voted the most romantic hotel in America by the users of About.com and TripAdvisor.com, the Henderson Park Inn is the ultimate destination for a couple’s escape! Our adults only hotel in Destin, FL features all of the amenities you need for an unforgettable getaway, including a private white sand beach on the Gulf of Mexico, complimentary breakfast and lunch, and luxurious accommodations.

While you will definitely want to splurge a little during your vacation, it’s not hard to remain within your travel budget when you book your stay with us. To help you get the best possible deal on your trip, the Henderson Park Inn has put together the following five tips.

1. Book Your Trip During the Off-Season

The rates at the Henderson Park Inn vary throughout the year depending on seasonal demand, with spring and summer being peak vacation times. If you’re looking for a great deal, consider scheduling your vacation during the “off-season,” which includes September – November. In addition to lower rates, the fall months boast fewer crowds, gorgeous sunny weather, and average highs in the 70s.

Of course, there is really no bad time to visit Destin! As long as you don’t have your heart set on swimming, a winter vacation on the Emerald Coast can be a ton of fun. For an in-depth look at the month-to-month weather in Destin and the area’s most popular seasonal events, check out this blog.

2. Check Flights at These Three Airports

If you are going to be flying to Destin, make sure that you check the prices for flights at these three airports:

• Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport – about 30 minutes from the Henderson Park Inn
• Northwest Florida Beaches Airport – about 1 hour from the Henderson Park Inn
• Pensacola International Airport – about 1 hour and 20 minutes from the Henderson Park Inn

Sometimes, it is worth it to fly into an airport that is farther away from Destin if you can get a significantly cheaper rate. Please keep in mind that the Henderson Park Inn offers a complimentary shuttle service to and from the Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport from March – October.

3. Track Airline Prices with an App or Email Alerts

Figuring out the best time to book your flights can be a tricky endeavor. Fortunately, there are a number of online services that monitor airline rates to help users determine the optimal moment to snatch up tickets. The Hopper app and the website AirfareWatchdog will both send you alerts when airline prices have dropped, so you don’t have to worry about checking the rates yourself.
