May 9, 2022 by Post

Executive Leadership Team Announced for New Property

CLEARWATER BEACH, Fla. (May 9, 2021) – Raleigh, North Carolina-based Concord Hospitality Enterprises has announced a target opening of summer 2022 for the new AC Hotel Clearwater Beach(395 Coronado Drive), a 144-room, lifestyle-branded property located between the award-winning shores of Clearwater Beach to the east and the shimmering Intracoastal Waterway to the west. Leading operations at the new Marriott portfolio hotel will be General Manager Jeff Lidinsky and Director of Sales & Marketing Christina Kipp.

Framed by the shores of the Gulf of Mexico and Intracoastal Waterway, the AC Hotel Clearwater Beach will provide rewarding water views from guest rooms, as well as from Soriée – a rooftop gathering space, where guests will enjoy nightly artisan libations and fare. A chic European-inspired brand, AC by Marriott properties are designed with the modern traveler in mind, who is seeking an experience-driven atmosphere. Onsite, the AC Kitchen and AC Lounge serving European-inspired breakfast and tapas-style dining, a library-focused workspace, resort-style pool with Umbra pool deck bar for lite bites and drinks, Media Salon for up meetings up to six, and 24-hour fitness center will complement AC brand signature moments such as the European Welcome, Community Coffee, and the Lavender Turndown, to name a few. Guest rooms and common space will embrace the modern style and décor synonymous with Florida-style living. 

“We’re thrilled to bring the AC brand’s sophisticated and curated experience to overnight guests in Clearwater Beach,” said Mark Laport, Concord Hospitality President & CEO. “The outstanding executive team we’ve selected to manage the property will ensure the high level of guest service and signature moments for which the AC brand is widely recognized.”

General Manager Jeff Lidinsky currently oversees operations at Concord Hospitality’s Courtyard Clearwater Beach property and is adding the new AC Hotel Clearwater Beach to his management responsibilities. With more than two decades in direct hospitality management, Lidinsky has worked within the Hyatt, Hilton and Marriott brands, most recently, as general manager of the AC Hotel Portland Downtown/ Waterfront. 

 Joining Lidinsky in a dual-property role is Christina Kipp, Director of Sales & Marketing at the Courtyard Clearwater Beach and the new AC Hotel Clearwater Beach. Having spent the majority of her 25 years of tourism tenure in Florida, Kipp joined the executive team from her most recent position as Director of Sales at the Courtyard by Marriott and Residence Inn Sarasota Bradenton Airport hotels.

 Reservations for overnight stays at AC Hotel Clearwater Beach are expected to open summer 2022.  For more information on the hotel, visit AC-Hotles.Marriott.com or call (727) 441-4443.
