Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa added another award to its existing reputation as an award-winning resort in Bonita Springs.
Hyatt Coconut Point was recognized among the Readers’ Choice Award winners by ConventionSouth, a national resource for planning events in the South. The resort is among 502 convention and visitor bureaus, meeting facilities, hotels and unique venues located throughout the South to receive this year’s Readers’ Choice Award.

“We are honored to receive this prestigious recognition for ConventionSouth magazine,” said Rhett Wilson, director of sales and marketing at Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa. “As this award is determined by meeting professionals, it is a true testament to the high-quality service, elevated spaces, accommodations, and unmatched amenities our team provides here in our gorgeous Southwest Florida setting.”
This is the 11th time Hyatt Regency Coconut Point has received this recognition. Throughout the year, meeting professionals nominated the meeting sites they believe provide exemplary service for group events. The nominated sites are then compiled into an online ballot where meeting professionals and fans are asked to vote for the best of the best. More than 7,000 voters participated in this year’s award program.
“ConventionSouth readers and fans have once again voted to decide the best meeting sites in the South and it is no surprise to us that Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa has been selected to receive our annual Readers’ Choice Award,” said Tiffany Burtnett, associate publisher of ConventionSouth. “This prestigious recognition comes from the United States’ top meeting professionals who hold events in the South. These planners demand the highest level of customer service and quality facilities, and they have determined that Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa indeed displays the commitment to professionalism, creativity, and service that they require.”

This October, the resort completed a multimillion-dollar renovation to its meeting and event spaces featuring natural, coastal-inspired tones with ocean blues, lush greens, and sandy beige accents. Updates include new carpeting, wall coverings, and artwork reflective of the resort’s stunning Southwest Florida setting. Event areas also showcase striking new lighting, such as an extravagant mesh chandelier reminiscent of a conch shell in Estero Ballroom and opalescent glass installations with silver accents throughout additional spaces. The enhancements also extend outdoors with a redesigned Calusa Ballroom Terrace, now outfitted with new pavers, lighting upgrades, and new integrated turf with redesigned landscaping providing an idyllic outdoor setting reminiscent of a tropical garden.
Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa features 82,000 square-feet of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting space. Outdoor spaces include the Belvedere Terrace backdropped by fountains and a waterfall; the Banyan Courtyard, a beautiful tropical garden featuring shady live oak trees and a charming circular fountain; and the Royal Palm and Cypress Courtyards which both feature sprawling lawns accented by towering palms.
