ST. PETE BEACH, FL — The Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Commerce is working with Plaza Beach Resorts to host a grand opening like you’ve never seen before. The grand opening celebration will start at 5 p.m. and go until 8 p.m. at Plaza Beach Hotel on Wednesday, August 23rd (4506 Gulf Blvd, St Pete Beach, FL 33706).
Vero Beach artist Steve Diossy and Plaza Beach Resorts are celebrating the completion of a new art inspired hotel collaboration at Bayview Plaza Waterfront Resort and Bay Palms Waterfront Resort and Marina, and the celebration will surely be grand. The festivities will begin right away at 5 p.m. with an open bar, live music from Forrest Hoffar, and complimentary small tattoos.
The hosts will give a toast before the official ribbon cutting at 5:45 by the Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Commerce. Stay a little longer to snack on appetizers, get a room tour, and have a chance at an array of grand raffle prizes including a Steve Diossy Art piece.
General manager of Plaza Beach Resorts, Robert Czyszczon, has been looking forward to this collaboration for a while, “I immediately knew that this was the artist to theme our hotels. However, with Covid and not knowing what the future holds for the hospitality industry, I put the idea on hold.” Fast forward three years, and they have finally done it. Czyszczon boasts, “We are excited that we have the first Steve Diossy Art Inspired Hotels in the World.”
The public is welcome to join in on the festivities and celebrate alongside Steve Diossy, Plaza Beach Resorts, and the Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber.
