Hotels in New Port Richey

Paddle along the Cotee River where manatees glide beneath your kayak like gentle ghosts in slow motion. The historic Hacienda Hotel stands as a Mediterranean revival reminder of when this was to be 'Hollywood East.' Locals pack the Richey Suncoast Theatre for productions that punch above their weight in charm and talent. Green Key Beach offers Gulf access without the tourist crowds of nearby beaches. Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Park provides trails through cypress forests where wildlife appears when you least expect it. The city comes alive during festivals when Main Street transforms into a celebration of coastal Florida culture. Arrive hungry – waterfront restaurants serve grouper sandwiches that make fast food chains seem like cruel jokes.
