Gardens, the Historic Latin Quarter of Ybor City, Yacht Starship,
Bern's Steakhouse, a sunset sail, and/or a Tampa Bay Lightning
hockey game.
Some interesting new hotels are coming online in Tampa.
Aloft Tampa Downtown opens in July in a former Mercantile
Bank building. The 130-room hotel is located along the Tampa
Riverwalk, with a terrace pool deck overlooking the Hillsborough
River and downtown Tampa.
The 130-room Le Meridien Hotel Tampa will open this
year inside the 108-year-old Federal Courthouse, with 4,800 sf
of meeting space, including a 2,200-sf ballroom set in the old
courtroom with 18-foot ceilings.
For foodies, The Epicurean Hotel opened in December
across the street from the world-famous Bern's Steakhouse.
The 137-room hotel is heavily focused on food and wine. It will
include Elevage restaurant with 80 seats, the rooftop bar Edge,
and the Chocolate Pi patisserie.
Bern's Fine Wines & Spirits will open on the first floor, and
the Epicurean Theatre culinary classroom is perfect for group
cooking demos.
SARASOTA
Sarasota County is currently undergoing an expansion phase
while carefully maintaining its neighborly charm and pristine
natural environment. This past year, The Francis multi-function
event space opened in Downtown Sarasota with space for
groups up to 250 pax.
Additionally, The Mall at University Town Center will be
completed this fall, offering 1 million sf of upscale shopping and
dining.
For an especially unique teambuilding opportunity, Nathan
Benderson Park is a new 2,000-meter sprint rowing course
that's scheduled to host the 2017 World Rowing Championships.
Planners can create fun rowing competitions and educational
sessions, or they can host a meeting or reception in the new
Boathouse opening later this year.
"We are very fortunate that Sarasota County is a destination
that truly sells itself," says Kelly M. Defebo, CMP, director of sales
at Visit Sarasota County. "Any FAM trip we conduct generates
wonderful ideas for any meeting planner, with the highest impact
and high-ROI for their particular group."
When you're so close to your ocean view room,
so close to famous art, and so near a café cubano, you'll know.
No tweet, snapshot or posting will ever be enough.
You so have to meet here to get it.
