Clearwater, Florida, welcomes JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa, a luxury hotel that officially opened this month. Located along a secluded stretch of beach, the property features 162 guestrooms and 26 spacious Residences. Rooms blend rustic elegance with Art Deco-inspired glamour. Details in the room also pay homage to the land’s original inhabitants, the Tocobaga people.
In addition to luxurious accommodations, the new hotel includes a 24-hour fitness center, JW Kids Club, rooftop pool deck, and elevated food and beverage outlets. Led by executive chef Inder Suryawanshi and sous chef Soumi Hazra, the hotel’s restaurants incorporate ingredients from the resort’s own JW Garden.

Latitude 28, named for the restaurant’s location on Clearwater Beach, is open daily for breakfast and dinner, offering a fine-dining, seasonal Mediterranean menu. Guests can eat within the design-forward dining room or outside on the al-fresco patio. Eskape, another dining outlet, serves as the perfect casual, mid-day eating spot. Facing the ocean, this restaurant serves tropically inspired cocktails and refreshing dishes like Gulf shrimp tacos. On the 11th floor, guests can find The Deep End, a restaurant and bar featuring a Nikki-Peruvian menu.
