“Hotel Effie distinguishes itself along Florida's Emerald Coast with its rooftop pool, a feature no other hotel shares in the area. The commitment to guest experience extends from the Ovide restaurant's innovative Southern cuisine to the relaxing spa treatments at SPA Lilliana; I think those two combined already set the tone. Also, the partnership with Alaqua Animal Refuge reflects a dedication to animal welfare that I find admirable.”
