Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa

Meeting Planners seeking luxury and recreation—plus the benefits of environmentally friendly lodgings—find the best of all worlds at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa, set on Florida’s gulf coast between Naples and Fort Myers. Through the Florida Green Lodging Certification Program, the Bonita Springs hotel rates a Two Palm designation, the highest in the state.

While backstage systems conserve water, save energy, and reduce waste, meetings come to order on the main building’s ground floor, near a convenient loading dock and office for clients’ use. The Calusa Ballroom anchors the conference area with more than 14,000 square feet of space under soaring, 22-foot ceilings. Complete with a mezzanine and spacious terrace, the ballroom divides into eight sections or serves up to 1,100 guests for dinner and more than 1,800 theater style. A junior ballroom and terrace, six smaller conference or dining rooms, two executive boardrooms, and two lushly landscaped courtyards contribute further options for breakout sessions and events.

Off duty, participants relax in a choice of 454 newly renovated and redesigned rooms and suites. They indulge at a 19,000-square-foot spa, salon, and fitness center; play golf on an Audubon-certified 18-hole course; dine at four restaurants; and dive into three pools, one with a corkscrew waterslide. Or, from the resort’s marina, they catch a ten-minute water taxi to the secluded beaches of Big Hickory Island, yet another ultimate place to find paradise in the gulf coast environment.
