Loews Don CeSar Beach Resort a 'See & Be Seen' Super Bowl Hot Spot

ST. PETE BEACH, Fla., Jan. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- As Super Bowl XLIII will be
played in Tampa in 2009, the LOEWS DON CESAR BEACH RESORT- Florida's Legendary
Pink Palace since 1928 - is gearing up as a favorite hot spot for celebrities
and dignitaries to relax before the game's festivities and events. Rising from
the sugary Gulf shores as the only historic resort poised along the Gulf
coast, this legendary resort has a decades old pedigree as a favorite of
celebrities, athletes and socialites from F. Scott Fitzgerald and Al Capone to
Elton John and Beyonce Knowles. The "Pink Lady" has also played host to every
U.S. President since the 1940's.
During the 2001 Super Bowl in Tampa, the Don CeSar proved its acclaim of
gracious pampering and unparalleled service for guests of the big game,
hosting the stars of the halftime entertainment, including Justin Timberlake
and Britney Spears. Plans are once again in the works at the Pink Palace for
gourmet tailgates, special "team tini" cocktails and signature spa treatments
at the new, three-story Spa Oceana featuring a rooftop terrace directly
overlooking the Gulf.
Referred to simply as "The Don" by generations of privileged guests from
around the world, the luxury resort is revered internationally for its
sprawling, sugar-sand beach, sweet sunsets, Four-Diamond dining, rejuvenating
new Spa Oceana, sailing and nearby golf and tennis. Furthermore, travelers
appreciate its close, 30-minute drive from Tampa International Airport as well
as Raymond James Stadium.
The Don exemplifies the grandness of America's traditional beach resorts
as it casts a rouge glow across Pass-a-Grille Island from Boca Ciega Bay to
the pearlescent sands of the Gulf. Its landmark architecture reflects a
flamingo-pink, Mediterranean castle sharply chiseled against the blue Florida
sky accented by Moorish bell towers and imperial turrets.

Bowl XLIII, call the Loews Don CeSar Beach Resort at (727) 360-1881 and visit
