Palm Coast, Fla. – August 12, 2024 – Hammock Beach Golf Resort & Spa, an oceanfront luxury resort just south of St. Augustine, is proud to announce its designation as a Distinguished Golf Destination ELITE, the Hallmark of Excellence for a golf resort. This designation is merit-based recognizing exceptional golf resorts that exceed expectations in the quality of service and amenities, facilities, and most importantly the teamwork of the staff and management. The designation is awarded by the BoardRoom Magazine in partnership with Forbes Travel Guide. 

Nestled along the shoreline with views of the Atlantic Ocean, Hammock Beach Golf Resort & Spa features two award-winning golf courses.
