The Westin Diplomat Resort & Spa

Stretching from the seawalls of the Intracoastal Waterway to the sandy beaches of the Atlantic Ocean, The Westin Diplomat Resort & Spa enjoys a convenient location between Fort Lauderdale and Miami in Hollywood, Florida. The AAA Four Diamond Award–winning resort, renowned for its sophisticated architecture and upscale amenities, rises 39 stories tall, affording ocean views from most of the 998 guest rooms and suites. Guests also enjoy such Westin signature amenities as Heavenly Beds and the daily Unwind Hour.

Groups convene in the resort’s Convention Center, measuring 200,000 square feet. Here, the focal point is the 50,000-square-foot Great Hall and its many prefunction areas. Also part of the resort’s meeting facilities, four additional ballrooms and 39 breakout rooms comfortably accommodate groups of 8 to 8,000. In addition to wireless Internet connectivity, business travelers have access to the latest in technology, such as live video projection, Janus plasma display screens and reader boards, corporate Web hosting service, along with virtual networking between group and home corporate offices.

Time off can be spent exploring all that the resort and its sister property, The Diplomat Golf Resort & Spa, have to offer. On-site, guests can sign up for deep-sea fishing at Diplomat Landing, lounge on the sandy beach, or cool off in the infinity-edge pool—complete with two waterfalls flowing into a 240-foot lagoon pool below. The Diplomat Golf Resort & Spa, accessible by complimentary shuttle, provides a par-72 golf course, a tennis center, and a full-service European-style spa.

I have had the pleasure of using the Westin Diplomat for past programs and I am never disappointed. In fact, each event just gets better and better. The hotel doesn't rest on its past success, instead it really strives to reach a higher level of excellence with each event. The hotel even has its own ground transportation group (USA Transportation) on site and their service and execution is as flawless as what I have come to expect from the hotel. In every respect, from every possible perspective, this hotel will go above and beyond your expectations and your guests will truly have an experience that they will remember as one of the best meetings ever attended.

Beautiful property located on the beach in Hollywood, FL. Excellent service. Be aware that attendees will be coming in from Miami and Ft. Lauderdale airports which may increase your transportation cost (dual operations at each airport). Attendees enjoyed their stay as the architecture of the property is very impressive.

As a planner, I was thrilled to have plenty of meeting space available for my use for our large meetings and meal events. I found the Convention Services staff to be very efficient and professional.
