Whether it's the parties of Miami, family vacations at Disney World, or the small-town charm of historic St. Augustine, the Sunshine State is a never-ending hotspot for travelers.
Those looking for a new place to stay should be excited to know that Florida will soon be home to a massive new waterfront resort — The Sunseeker Resort. The expected opening date is October 2023, with more details to come on their official website.
What Does Sunseeker Resort Have To Offer?
The Sunseeker Resort is set on 24 acres in Charlotte Harbor’s most prime real estate, across the Barron Collier Bridge from the charming town of Punta Gorda.
Guests will experience:
- Over 700 rooms
- 20 restaurants to choose from, including a Tiki bar!
- Aileron Golf Club – a flawless 18-hole golf course 10 minutes away
- Multiple swimming pools
- A world-class spa offering massages, facials, and bridal packages

For those who don’t need a suite, there are still plenty of comfortable options at hand:
- Premium Queen
- Premium Harbor Queen
- Premium King
- Premium Harbor King
These spacious options all have tall windows to enjoy the sunrise or sunset and are outfitted with the most modern, easy-to-use technology.
For those looking for just a bit extra, these rooms might be best:
- Corner Balcony Harbor View Queen
- Corner Balcony Harbor View King
These two room options have the same amenities as the Premium-class rooms, but have amazing views from attached balconies with a private space to enjoy the nice breeze from the river.
A Dreamy Wedding Destination
This resort has lofty goals to become Southwest Florida’s premiere destination for weddings.
Big or small, Sunseeker will have event spaces to please everyone, including direct access to a full-service salon and riverfront ballrooms with scenic views.
The resort has well-respected wedding planners on staff for engaged couples to make all the necessary arrangements.
Bridal suites are available for the bride and closest friends and family to get ready for the big day.
Sunseeker offers a variety of wedding packages and a wide-ranging menu of catering options.
The soon-to-be newlyweds can choose a pre-selected menu, customize their own food offerings or arrange another event at one of the 20 on-site restaurants or bars.
“From memorable milestones to once-in-a-lifetime celebrations, Sunseeker Resort Charlotte Harbor provides a stunning backdrop for the wedding of your dreams. We know that saying “I Do” is the most important day for couples and the team at Sunseeker ensures that no detail is overlooked. Whether you envision a classic black-tie affair or elegant contemporary celebration, our waterfront ballrooms, world-class hotel amenities and dedicated hotel, banquet and culinary teams provide extraordinary service, so couples know their only requirement is their presence.”
Heidi Thixton, Sunseeker Resorts Director of Catering
Allegiant Airlines Is Behind Sunseeker Resort
It’s not often that an airline is behind the vision of a luxurious resort. Allegiant Airlines takes pride in being the carrier of a plentiful list of sunny destinations, including nearby Punta Gorda.
In Allegiant’s own words, “why stop at flying our customers to other places when we could create an entirely new resort experience ourselves?”. That is the origin of the Sunseeker Resort.
Allways, the rewards program for the budget airline, offers benefits for flying and now staying at this future resort. Those who fly with Allegiant and stay at Sunseeker will receive a special rate for booking.
