Tampa’s dark side: Halloween in paradise

Tropical Halloween is weird. It’s not fall-ish. Leaves aren’t changing colors or crunching underfoot. Pumpkin-and-spice scents don’t make as much sense where the average high is 84. To its credit, Florida adapts.

Died and gone to heaven? No, It’s actually Tampa

Work hard, play harder at these Tampa hotels

As much as we could all use a break from buzzing Blackberries and cranky clients, sometimes we have to mix a little business with pleasure. Fortunately, these Tampa hotels give visitors the best of both worlds: ample meeting and event space with easy access to the best of Tampa’s nightlife so you can kick back after a long day.
