Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay - Full-Time Travel

Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay

Tampa, Florida, USA
In a Nutshell:

Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay’s setting, on a 35-acre nature preserve, elevates it above your typical airport hotel (Tampa Bay International is a 7-minute drive away). Try bird watching along the boardwalk, spot manatees and dolphins from the boat dock, hike or bike the idyllic 9.5 bayside bike path or launch a kayak or paddleboard from the sunning beach. 

EDITOR'S TIP: Rent a car. Although the hotel isn’t close to any walkable attractions you can reach Busch Gardens, historic Ybor City, The Florida Aquarium, the Dali Museum and more in around 20 minutes.

 
The Style: Understated luxury
 
Perfect For:
Business Travel City break Family Friendly USA Trips
Why We Love It:
  • You get access to so much nature while also being able to reach the downtown area in 15 minutes 
  • Two on-site restaurants cover your every craving
  • It’s pet friendly!

The Unmissable Experience:

Stroll down a quiet nature trail, about 150 yards from the hotel, and you’ll reach Oystercatchers. It’s the perfect place to enjoy fresh seafood and cocktails at sunset.

"This sculpture is called "Transmission" by artist Daniel Popper. Its a reminder that we are all rooted in love, unity and the divine. She stands a towering 28 feet tall and is located on Mojave Moon Ranch in Joshua Tree. The land is private property, so you can see it from the viewing platform off of Sunfair Road. And take it from me, it's best viewed at sunset." Reel: @johnofah

Swim or kayak through the limestone cliffs of the Twin Lagoon, a must-visit destination for those traveling to Coron, Palawan, Philippines. It is called "twin" lagoon because it consists of two lagoons separated by a limestone cliff, with one lagoon on top of the other. The water in the inner lagoon is warm and clear, with a stunning turquoise color that makes it popular for swimming and snorkeling. Reel: @travelifejournal

Watching the sun rise above the clouds at Haleakalā National Park is one of the most memorable experiences you could have. Haleakalā is a Hawaiian name that means “House of the Sun” and is an awesome place to watch the clear night sky and stars fade away as the sun lights up the sky and the earth.

Just 1 hour from Shanghai by train, Cherry Blossom Valley is a popular tourist destination, particularly in the spring when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. The valley is named after the thousands of cherry blossom trees that cover the area and create a stunning display of pink and white flowers. The trees were originally planted in the 1980s by a group of Japanese experts who were invited to China to help with reforestation efforts. The best time to visit is typically in late March or early April. Get there early to beat the crowds! Reel: @cyncynti

For a magical moment and bucket list travel experience, visit the end point of the annual monarch butterfly migration. Starting in August, the monarchs travel 2,800 miles south from Canada, making a temporary home amid the towering trees of the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve in Mexico, where the two most popular sanctuaries to view them are el Rosario in the state of Michoacan and Piedra Herrada in Estado de México. Standing in silence while thousands of delicate wings beat in unison is something you'll never forget. Reel: @juliiathompson

As we experience a couple more weeks of winter, we can't help but dream of tropical destinations like Hawaii. The warm water, sunny skies, and consistent waves make it an ideal destination for surfers. Hawaii has a vibrant surf culture and community and is also a beautiful place to explore outside of the water, with lush green mountains, stunning beaches, and unique cultural experiences.
