Traveling While Black
We had a great stay in Destin! We stayed at Hotel Effie and the service and experience was exceptional! This will be our spot when we go back!
Bijoux and AJs were our favorite spots for food and atmosphere.

Traveling While Black
Henderson Beach Resort. Beautiful hotel with a nice pool with lil lazy river and bar. We stayed with two kids, 11 & 2, twice on a roadtrip. The staff is welcoming and helpful. No problems on either visit. The rooms are clean clean with comfortable beds. We also went out to eat at the Salt Grass nearby where there were other black families with no negative interactions.
