As the very first luxury hotel to serve the University of Central Florida campus, The Celeste provides an unbeatable upscale perch from which to enjoy all that the Greater Orlando area has to offer.
Among America’s favorite vacationlands, Orlando offers getaways of all different kinds, including those emphasizing the finer things. For a luxury stay in The City Beautiful, look no further than the starshine hospitality of The Celeste—and consider the following activities during your escape!
Take in a Live Performance From a Homegrown Orlando Company
Of course, concerts and other live entertainment of every description pass through Orlando (including at the multipurpose home base of the Orlando Magic, Amway Center).
And some of the very best come courtesy of The City Beautiful’s own resident performing-arts companies. Head over to Steinmetz Hall at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, for example, to enjoy a concert by the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra, Central Florida’s leading professional orchestra. Helmed by Music Director Eric Jacobsen, the Orlando Philharmonic has, as usual, a thrilling 2023-2024 season, with appearances by such luminaries as Emanuel Ax and Sarah Shafer on the calendar.
Also performing at the Dr. Phillips Center as well as the Harriett’s Orlando Ballet Centre, Orlando Ballet is another local treasure. Don’t miss its marvelous production of The Nutcracker, running through December 24th.
And then there’s Orlando Shakes, aka the Orlando Shakespeare Theater, founded back in 1989 by University of Central Florida professor Stuart Omans. This highly regarded theater company is currently presenting several holiday programs, including A Christmas Carol (through December 24th), and kick off the New Year with a bang thanks to Henry VI, Part I: Joan of Arc (January 10th through the 21st).
Take in the Orlando Museum of Art
Easily reached from your Tribute Portfolio guest room or suite here at The Celeste, the Orlando Museum of Art (2416 North Mills Avenue, Orlando, FL) is always a rewarding visit.
It offers not only a masterfully curated permanent collection (American Art, African Art, Art of the Ancient Americas, and more), but also a rich roster of temporary exhibitions. Among those currently on view, for example, are A Mother, Possibly, featuring diverse images of motherhood, and Norma: Selected Works by Norma Canelus Roth.
Enjoy Some Quality Time on an Orlando Golf Course
Given the plethora of fine courses and the friendly year-round weather, Orlando holds its own with any golf destination in the world. Calling The Celeste Hotel your home away from home, you’ll enjoy convenient proximity to such topnotch courses as the Mayfair Country Club, Winter Park Golf Course, and Stoneybrook East Golf Club, among others.
