The recently-renovated Renaissance Resort at World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Florida, hosted a very successful reception as part of the 2009 Florida Society of Association Executives (FSAE) Annual Conference in early July 2009. Pictured at the reception are (from left): Barbara Solis, CMP, Associate Director of Membership Development/Meetings of the Florida League of Cities, who is based in Tallahassee, Florida; Mark Schwantner, general manager of The Renaissance Resort at World Golf Village; Mark’s wife Celia Schwantner; and Corey Mathews, CAE, Account Executive for Membership Services, Inc., who is also based in Tallahassee, Florida.
The reception showcased The Renaissance Resort at World Golf Village, which completed a $10 million property-wide renovation in July 2008. Recipient of the “Best Renovation of the Year Award” for a franchised property at the 2008 Marriott International National Association (MINA) conference, the resort features 301 newly renovated guest rooms and suites. The comprehensive renovation also included dramatic changes to the lobby atrium and entry area, the renovation of all guest room corridors, the expansion of the fitness center, the addition of new state-of-the-art fitness equipment, the renovation of the billiard room, enhancements to the meeting space with new carpet and flex-back chairs, and the renovation of the business center. In addition, the resort also remodeled its restaurant and bar, which opened as a new restaurant and bar called 500 South, An American Grill.
Together with the adjoining St. Johns County Convention Center and the adjacent World Golf Hall of Fame, The Renaissance Resort at World Golf Village is the largest combination hotel and conference center between Atlanta and Orlando, with 86,000 square feet of meeting and event space. The resort is located within the lush 6,300-acre World Golf Village.
