GULF SHORES, Ala. (February 21, 2022) — The results are in for ConventionSouth’s Radiant Resorts, and 15 fabulous Southern properties took top spots. In February, ConventionSouth editors compiled a Facebook ballot of 75 visually stunning resorts with abundant amenities. From those resorts, ConventionSouth readers and Facebook fans voted for their top picks. The topic gained enormous attention, resulting in over 3,200 votes.
“It’s been two years now since the world shut down, and the meetings industry has not only survived but rebounded with a spirit unlike any other. These resorts represent the epitome of this communal spirit, providing opportunities to bring groups together with spectacular scenery, a warm climate, and great amenities,” said ConventionSouth’s Associate Publisher Ashleigh Osborne. “Despite recent hardships, resorts across the South haven’t slowed down their efforts to deliver a top-tier experience. They’re still upgrading, renovating, and re-imagining their accommodations, meeting facilities and F&B offerings, and they have gone above and beyond to offer unique and memorable experiences that follow best practices in health and safety.”
