“we are all lookIng forward to PlannIng and executIng our next conference at the tradewInds ... and to walkIng on the beach!”

As you know, there’s a lot more to a successful conference than just top-notch amenities, an experienced and accessible staff, unforgettable food and flawless execution – all of which are TradeWinds hallmarks. Your attendees will want to round out their experience with opportunities to bond with one another or to make memories with their families before or after the event.

TradeWinds’ enviable location on Florida’s West Coast affords everyone in your group the opportunity to seize extra-curricular experiences … many of which are unique to our tropical locale. From catching a fish to catching up on some sleep in a hammock; from admiring world-renowned art to watching professional baseball, football or hockey; from a three-story waterslide on our beach to world-class golf nearby … having your meeting in the heart of so much to do ensures that everyone who attends will consider it a memorable experience.

Part of maximizing all TradeWinds and our area has to offer is relying on our staff to help you and your guests plan. And, as with everything else we do, we over-deliver in that department as well. Visit our website, or talk with your TradeWinds Convention Services Manager to make all the arrangements.
