My now wife went in person to visit various venue locations. I desired to have a water front wedding ceremony, and there were various options at the time. What really sold us on the DoubleTree by Hilton was the professionalism portrayed by Barbara Tyler (Sales Manager), the head catering, head chef, and hotel management. We knew we were in good hands with Barbara as she was straight forward with us, very responsive to our questions, and timing on logistics with both us and our wedding coordinator.

We were able to have the water front ceremony desired. What was magical is that during the ceremony, two dolphins were uniting in the background and it was caught on camera. Turns out dolphins are my wife's favorite animal. The outdoor site was well prepared after experiencing a brush with hurricane Helene. We were blessed that our wedding dodged the traumatic impact the hurricane Milton left when it impacted the hotel just after our wedding.

Up front with the tasting, the head chef and management came out to meet us as we tried to various dishes. The food then and at the reception was exquisite and delightful.

On the weekend of our magical event, Barbara caught up with us to make sure things were going as expected and worked quite well with our coordinator. The staff was fantastic in and out of the reception. Between the hotel, coordinator, and our master of ceremony (DJ), our reception was epic! I am not quite sure they were ready for such a nerdy couple to have such as bombastic reception and four grown adults switch from wedding attire to cosplay.

The fact that most of the attendants said it was the most fun wedding they ever attends speaks more words than we can portray in this review. We highly recommend the DoubleTree by Hilton.

We had an amazing time with Adrian Robbins the events director. Everything was thoughtful and planned out. We weren’t from Florida so we had to travel and tour the venue prior which we did 3 months before our wedding and it was amazing. She was incredibly kind and really gave our guests an amazing experience. Everything was extremely affordable. Our guests are still talking about the wedding a year later.

These guys were awesome! Despite a change in sales/catering staff mid-planning, our event went off without a hitch! Teresa and Erin were great to work with, as were all of the staff at the DoubleTree. The food was better than at our tasting, and the location is picturesque - great bay background as the sun was starting to set. The staff kept things moving at just the right speed and made sure we didn’t have to worry about a thing on wedding day! One thing for couples to keep in mind is the uplighting. If you’re going to use uplighting, make sure you have enough cord length to get your lights in the right spots. While there are a number of receptacles throughout the tent, they’re spaced out just enough that you may need a couple of extension cords to get your lights in just the right spots. The tent is awesome, the setting was perfect, and our wedding was just as we’d hoped it would be!

Edward Jones went out of his way on several occasions to make sure we were taken care of. He was very attentive to my 86 year old Aunt (Grandmother of the Groom). Also the waiter Maurice was very good, even bringing me soup out by the pool where our family was congregating.

The people here could not have been nicer from checking in to the wedding coordinator. Anything we asked for was taken care of with in a very pleasant and professional way. We would highly recommend this place for any occasion.

I cannot say enough about this stunning venue. At first glance, it seems more corporate but it is so much more. Everything about the rehearsal,ceremony,cocktail hour and reception was top notch. The ceremony venue is spectacular and we had the pleasure of dolphins joining us for our vows! The food was delicious and the bartender was friendly and interacted with the guests ! Kelly C.,Kelly W. and Theresa are amazing and pay attention to every detail. They were able to accommodate us and our guests with minimal notice and went above and beyond at all times.They assisted with linen vendors and were prompt with every response. They worked as a team and were with us throughout the process. The day of Kelly W. and Theresa really ensured everything went smoothly. The hotel offers great outdoor photo locations , including waterfront and a beautiful park within walking distance.The entire staff was kind and guests complimented every staff member they had interaction with. I cannot recommend this venue enough. Thank you for helping with the wedding of our dreams!!!

We can not recommend a venue any more than the Hilton Doubletree Rocky Point! First of all, the venue itself is top-notch, especially for a small gathering! The service was outstanding, from Kelly, who answered every question almost as soon as we sent one, to the bartender and staff, who were quick to help with anything we asked. Location: Fantastic! And the price...wow! While many venues in the area charge tax on top of tax, Doubletree Rocky Point does not beat around the bush; taxes are included in the quote. What you see is what you get. All of the factors above sold the property to us, but what really put it over the top for us was the actual day itself. We took advantage of a sangria bar offered to us for promotional purposes, and it became a hit. Seemed every one of our guests raved about that, as well as the quality of food, which was tremendous! All in all, you cannot go wrong with hosting your wedding, or any other event, at Doubletree Rocky Point.

Great venue to celebrate our company Holiday Gathering. Service and food were excellent. Kelly was very flexible and always willing to accommodate our needs.

My experience with Doubletree is always excellent! The staff is the best I have seen, they really make you fell like family.
The event came out beautiful. The staff was very responsive and catered to all of our needs.
If you are looking for a hotel in Tampa, look no further... this is the best of the best!

I had my wedding here Nov 4, 2016. KELLY WAS FABULOUS!!! She was very responsive, she helped me from start to finish, she answered my questions no matter how many times I asked the same thing. She was with us from set through the service. I can't give her enough praise. She was personable, professional, and respectable. I would come to this venue again and definitely work with Kelly again!!!! My whole family loved her. Thank you Doubletree. My wedding was beautiful!!! Price was great and good was good. I'd do it all over again.
