Sometimes, you just need to get away for some sun and fun, and one of the best places to catch it is at the Hammock Beach Golf Resort and Spa. With stunning views, over-the-top luxury, and mouthwatering dining at the Atlantic Grille, I’d rate this Palm Coast beach resort near the top of my must-visit in Florida lists!
I’m currently sitting on my balcony overlooking the gardens, watching the ocean surf and thinking to myself — a person can get used to this, can’t they?
Behind me is my very comfortable living room, sofa, and sitting area. It’s like a home away from home.

With 330 luxury rooms ranging from 1-bedroom ocean view suites to multi-bedroom villas; you almost don’t want to leave your suite, but the surrounding property calls you. Florida’s Palm Coast offers a paradise-like setting with 70 miles of both saltwater and freshwater canals, the Intracoastal Waterway, and nearby pristine Atlantic Ocean beaches. Despite the luxury inside this beautiful Palm Coach beach resort, between the coast’s vibrant lifestyle and the gorgeous natural surroundings, you’ll want to get out of your room and explore.
The resort facilities themselves are fantastic, and there is so much to see and do. You can spend the morning at one of the two golf courses or take in a fitness class, play tennis, spend the afternoon at the spa, or just lounge by the pool and at night enjoy movies on the beach under the stars and then smores by the fire pit.
Travelling with children? There is a children’s programme for guests ages 4 to 12.
Hammock Beach Spa
I had the pleasure of having a massage at the Hammock Beach Spa. Service was outstanding from start to finish. From the moment I was escorted from the reception area by Spa staff member, Margarite, to the locker room and handed a robe, slippers and the key to my locker. To the moment I left Allesandra’s massage table feeling utterly relaxed with every knot and bit of tension gone.
As a guest of the resort, you can take advantage of the locker room and steam room even if you do not use the Spa’s services.
Resort Bars and Restaurants
There are four restaurants at Hammock Beach Resort; including a sushi bar and an Italian restaurant as well as 4 bars. You don’t need to leave the resort.
With a sophisticated yet cozy ambiance, guests of the Atlantic Grille can enjoy a delicious menu featuring fresh seafood, prime cuts of meat, and seasonal produce. Taking its name from the stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, the Atlantic Grille is the perfect spot for a romantic dinner or special occasion, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. The service is top-notch, with attentive and knowledgeable staff ensuring a memorable dining experience.
Our dinner at the Atlantic Grille included:
Hammock Salad
Spring Greens, sunflower seeds, goat cheese, dried cranberries, poached pears with a champagne vinaigrette
Pan-Seared Florida Grouper
Served with barley risotto and lobster fennel broth
All the staff at Hammock Beach Resort and the Atlantic Grille are excellent, and they know how to make you feel like you are family.
Even the server at the Coffee Bar in the lobby would always address us by name – in fact, she knew every one of her customers by name. I was puzzled at first, wondering how she knew the names of all the guests at the resort. I realised later that a lot of her customers were members of the Golf Club and therefore had access to the pool, gym, spa, fitness centre and fitness classes in the resort.
The same holds true for all the staff; once they learn your name, they make it a point to use it – making you feel like you are at home away from home.
Hammock Beach Resort is a fabulous place to spend a week away with luxurious accommodations, dining facilities, two golf courses and a gorgeous beachfront you can’t help but want to stay forever. We loved our stay so much that we looked into being property owners, as some of the suites have full kitchens and laundry facilities and act as condominiums.
An excellent location in the Palm Coast, 23 miles south of historic St. Augustine, Florida and 33 miles north of Daytona Beach, Hammock Beach Resort is somewhere I’d love to put down roots.
