Bellasera Hotel Receives Recognition As A 2013 Editor’s Hot Pick For South’s Top Exclusive Resort By ConventionSouth

April 11th, 2013

Bellasera Naples Hotel AwardIt is with great honor that the publishers and editors of ConventionSouth, the national multimedia resource for planning events that are held within the South, present Bellasera Hotel with a 2013 Editor’s Hot Pick For South’s Top Exclusive Resort recognition.

“ConventionSouth magazine believes that meeting planners and groups find ‘exclusive’ resorts in the South to be a top choice for their highest-level events,” said ConventionSouth Associate Publisher and Editor Marlane Bundock. “Exclusive resorts provide the top-level amenities needed to host executive business meetings, incentive trips, weddings and other events where top-of-the-line services and amenities are expected. In today’s economy, meeting planners have redefined what they consider an exclusive resort for their groups, and are looking for luxury properties that are easy to get to, have full-service meeting capabilities, and provide a good value for their budgets.”

Bellasera Hotel was selected as one of 10 resorts in the South to make this year’s list of Editor’s Hot Pick for the South’s Top Exclusive Resorts. Properties were selected based on their ability to provide luxury environments that are welcoming to meetings and groups, especially VIP attendees.

“Located in the resort destination of Naples, in Southwest Florida, the Bellasera Hotel provides an exclusive retreat experience in a charming yet luxurious environment with courtyard fountains, Italian architecture and Mediterranean cuisine,” Bundock said. “While not your typical full-service resort, Bellesara is able to pamper and rejuvenate attendees through resort-styled amenities such as the on-site luxury cabanas, a heated outdoor pool and spa, a fitness center, fine cuisine and more. ConventionSouth is honored to have Bellesara on this year’s list of the South’s top exclusive resorts for groups.

Celebrating 30 years as a leading meeting planning resource, ConventionSouth magazine is based in Gulf Shores, Ala., and is distributed to more than 18,000 meeting professionals located across the country who book meetings held within the South, according to Bundock.

A complete list of the 2013 Editor’s Hot Picks For Top Resorts in the South can be found online at: http://www.conventionsouth.com/top_resorts.htm
