DESTIN, FL, July 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort was awarded the 2013 Gold Tee Award from Meetings & Conventions magazine.

What makes Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort different from other destinations and hotels is the combination of four championship courses, more than 65,000-square-feet of meeting space, nationally acclaimed on-site meeting support, beautiful accommodations from the beach to the bay, and gracious southern hospitality, all within the gates of one property.

"The meeting industry's most highly-sought and respected critics, the readers of M&C have again chosen the world's finest. M&C's  readership, of 50,000 corporate, association, and incentive meeting professionals, know quality when they experience it - and made their votes count, selecting the golf properties they believed to be most outstanding." states Kirk Lewis, Meetings & Conventions' Publisher. "Our industry salutes the 70 properties worldwide that have distinguished themselves in this industry and earned the Gold Tee honor."
