Go inside Beacon the JW Marriott’s rooftop cocktail lounge (PHOTOS)

Beacon, Tampa’s newest rooftop lounge at the JW Marriott Tampa Water Street, opened on Friday, October 6.

Beacon has several lounge areas, including an outdoor terrace, a signature bar and a variety of intimate seating spaces. The signature bar space was conceived as the heart of the Beacon experience, with a canopy feature, while the perimeter seating allows for more intimate gatherings. Beacon’s interior was designed by AvroKO.

“During the early planning stages for our hotel, we set out to accomplish something extraordinary in Tampa,” said Ron McAnaugh, general manager at JW Marriott Tampa Water Street. “With the opening of Beacon, we feel we’ve achieved that goal and more. We have not only introduced luxury to Tampa but have also raised the bar on hospitality, elevating our offerings and providing our guests an exquisite array of dining experiences that cater to every palate.”

The JW Marriott Tampa Water Street is located at 510 Water Street. Beacon’s hours are Wednesday and Thursday, 5 p.m. to 11:59 p.m., Friday and Saturday, 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. and Sunday, 5 p.m. to 11 p.m.
