Add to all of this our new Saddlebrook Beds from Paradise and all meeting attendees will rave about the total comfort and spacious luxury in our guest accommodations.

Our award-winning catering and conference service teams synchronize all the details for you, right down to the last minute changes. That’s one reason why a majority of our groups come back to Saddlebrook. Another is how genuinely friendly and helpful our entire staff is to all guests.

When they are on their own, your attendees can dine in one of Saddlebrook’s outstanding restaurants. Both Tropics Restaurant and its al fresco companion, Tropics Terrace, prepare superb breakfasts and lunches featuring an action kitchen and fabulous menus. Dempsey’s Steak House is arguably one of the best steak houses in the country and features prime, aged beef in a traditional steak house setting. T.D.’s Sports Bar, adjacent to the Dempsey’s Steak House, offers hearty snacks and wonderful sandwiches in a relaxed, informal setting. The Poolside Café is quick and convenient for your attendees relaxing at the Superpool or catching a bite between golf holes or tennis sets.

On the run, our Coffee Bar – located just steps away in the lower lobby – serves coffee, espresso, cappuccino, lattes, iced and hot tea, and a daily selection of muffins, sweet rolls, wraps and more.

For early mornings, late nights, or any time of day, 24-hour room service is available when someone calls an impromptu meeting in your suite, or if you prefer the intimacy of in-room dining.

When meetings are over for the day, our lounge and bars are great places to unwind with refreshing cocktails and eclectic food.

Tropics Lounge, located just off the main lobby, is a friendly place for guests to rendezvous between functions and before dinner. After sunset, the mood at Tropic Lounge is friendly and welcoming, with nine flat screen TVs and dinner served until midnight.

For sports fans, T.D.’s Sports Bar is the place to be.  Satellite service beams games from all over the world to eight flat screen TVs. T.D’s also serves hearty snacks, cocktails and wonderful sandwiches. Plus, the menu at Dempsey’s Steak House is available after 6:00 pm.

Saddlebrook’s Pool Bar and Poolside Café both dispense delicious tropical beverages all day long.

Saddlebrook is a self-contained destination with golf, tennis, a spa, sports village with fitness center, lake fishing, and even biking on property – all of which allows your group members to relax and enjoy themselves when not in meetings.  

In addition to all we offer on property, our group activities staff can arrange for your group to go in-shore or deep-sea fishing, air boating, clay shooting, or canoeing down the Hillsborough river. We can also organize visits to Busch Gardens and Adventure Island, The Florida Aquarium, the Gulf beaches, and our very own Shops at Wiregrass shopping area, just five minutes from the resort.
