Ara Rooftop Pool & Lounge, Northwest Florida’s only rooftop pool located atop Hotel Effie Sandestin, is a chic, open-air escape with sweeping views of the resort, Choctawhatchee Bay, and the Gulf. This New Year’s Eve, Ara Rooftop turns up the heat—and the cool—with its Fire & Ice NYE Bash from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. Guests can ring in 2026 under the stars with handcrafted themed cocktails, gourmet bites from Ara’s newly curated menu, a live DJ, and two spectacular fireworks shows at 8 p.m. and midnight. General entry is $65 plus tax and gratuity, with VIP tables and cabanas available, including entry for eight and two bottles of Veuve Clicquot. Tickets are limited and available on Eventbrite.
