About

Holiday Surf and Racquet Club is a seaside wedding venue in Destin, Florida. This quiet property, situated on a white sandy beach and overlooking the crystal clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico, is an idyllic spot to host a beach wedding.

Facilities and Capacity

Holiday Surf and Racquet Club is a beautiful location to host a memorable ceremony with your toes in the sand. The Surf Room on the 2nd floor of the building is the perfect place to host your reception. With beautiful ocean views and a versatile floor plan, it can be easily customized to suit your unique wedding. The private event room can accommodate up to 100 guests for an intimate celebration with loved ones.

Services Offered

The Surf Room comes equipped with all the tables and chairs you'll need for your event and there is a full kitchen available for your caterer's use. The sprawling building features seven stories of rental units with unbeatable ocean views if you'd like to stay and relax after your celebration. A large heated pool is located on the ground floor, just steps away from the pristine beach.

THE SPACE:

It is approximately 3000 sq ft of space located on the 2nd floor, and boasts large windows that overlook the sparkling pool and Gulf of Mexico. There is also a large, updated kitchen with plenty of cabinet space, counter space, 2 range ovens, microwave, dishwasher, and double door fridge with bottom freezer. With fresh, neutral paint throughout and new wood-look plank flooring, this inviting space is just the canvas you need to make your big day everything you have dreamed about.

***Tables and chairs are included but setup/breakdown, linens, music, food, and anything else you may need can be provided by a local vendor. We have a preferred vendors list available upon request.

PRICING:

If you rent one of our units, the Surf Room rental is $750.00 per day (10am - 10pm), with a $175 cleaning fee, plus 13% sales tax. If you choose to not rent one of our units, the Surf Room rental is $1,250.00 with a $175.00 cleaning fee, plus 13% sales tax. We require a $500.00 non-refundable payment to hold your reservation, and the remainder is due 30 days before your event. You are required to have event insurance to rent our Surf Room, and we require we have that on file 30 days before your event.

Our County, Okaloosa, has a "no noise ordinance" after 10pm, which is why the rental expires then. You will have from 10pm-midnight for clean-up, with the key being returned at midnight to the front desk.

BEACH CEREMONY:

If you are interested in a beach wedding as well, there is a beach permit fee of $150 for more than 10 attendees (yourselves included) or if there are any chairs, decorations, or arch at the beach. Any event must fill out the permit, even if there is no setup. This is so we will be able to keep up with the event dates and notify beach service in advance. Also, beach weddings may not start before 6pm during beach service season (Mar 1 - Oct 31). You may start setting up at 4:30 with prior notice to the beach attendees so they can move the beach service chairs out of the ceremony area.

Great Multi-Purpose Room

Have used the Surf Room at Holiday Surf for multiple events other than a wedding, with as many as 70 attendees. Nice bright room. Full Kitchen. Mounted flat-screen for media presentations. Gulf view. The Holiday Surf staff is always friendly, helpful and professional.
