MASTERS OF
FUN Our entertainment options will get you moving BY HANNAH BURKE

sk Tiffany Howell and Caidan Cryar what their role is at Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa, and they’ll tell you they’re in the “fun” department. Indeed, Howell and Cryar, the Director and Assistant Director of Recreation, are master distractors, packing so much action into guests’ vacations, that they’ll never need to venture off property to seek entertainment. Both ladies got their start at Hilton Sandestin Beach’s pool hut, a summer job that led to their life’s calling. “I know for Caidan and myself, it’s been a joy to work our way up to the positions we’re in now,” said Howell. “We have a really great team in recreation that works hard to bring joy to everyone — especially when it’s raining.”
Rainy day diversions almost always include complimentary movie marathons on the lower lobby level of the Emerald Tower. Cryar will usually organize a game of bingo or one of her famous scavenger hunts that the whole family will love. But chances are that fickle Florida weather will give way to sunshine, and you’ll be beach bound in no time. With direct access to one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Hilton Sandestin Beach offers numerous amenities to ensure you experience the ultimate getaway. “Reserve your beach chairs and umbrellas in advance to make sure you get a perfect spot,” Howell advised. “For those who don’t, we recommend getting to the beach services hut before 11 in the morning as the beach fills up quickly.” HILTONSANDESTINBEACH.COM
