Driving into the entrance of the Hammock Beach Resort, you are impressed by its size. The castle-like main building with its towers and red roofs, villas and lodge stretch out along the coast against a backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean. One of Salamander’s Grand Golf Resorts of Florida, Hammock Beach has just about all the vacation toys you can think of to please golfers and non-golfers alike.
Like its sister properties Reunion Resort in Orlando and Innisbrook Resort near Tampa, Hammock Beach does not allow tipping. As soon as you drive up to the front entrance, a bellman greets you by name (already phoned in from the gate) and takes care of your luggage and your car and clubs. If you try to tip, it will be refused.
