What an incredible weekend at The Hacienda! 🌊🦪
We were honored to host Florida’s Sports Coast for a tourism familiarization tour, welcoming a talented group of travel journalists and content creators to experience everything our destination has to offer.
After a weekend exploring New Port Richey, their adventure concluded with an unforgettable scalloping excursion, followed by a beautiful waterfront-inspired dinner here at The Hacienda. The evening also brought together community leaders and tourism partners, celebrating the people and organizations that continue to showcase the best of Florida’s Sports Coast.
A special thank you to Chef Jon, who created an exceptional scallop-inspired menu that was as gorgeous as it was delicious and to Chef Nicolle for executing it at the event beautifully. From the thoughtfully designed coastal tablescape and live steel drum music to every carefully plated course, the evening perfectly captured the spirit of our waterfront community.
We’re proud to play a role in introducing visitors, storytellers, and travel media to our historic hotel and vibrant downtown. Here’s to the stories they’ll share and the travelers they’ll inspire to discover New Port Richey.
Thank you, Florida’s Sports Coast, for including The Hacienda in this memorable experience. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back!
