Founded in 1925 by visionary developer Joseph Young, Hollywood was designed to be a “Dream City by the Sea,” and a century later, it continues to live up to that vision. Located midway between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood offers a unique blend of naturally beautiful beaches, a vibrant downtown area, and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that still values its roots. When you’re ready to explore, you don’t have to go far. Just north of The Diplomat Resort lies one of the city’s most beloved landmarks, the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, a 2.5-mile oceanfront promenade named one of America’s Best Beach Boardwalks by Travel + Leisure. While there, you can stop by one of Hollywood’s best-known restaurants, 7 Tables On The Beach Authentic Peruvian Cuisine. Cross the Intracoastal Waterway into downtown, and you enter a vibrant urban area that centers around Young Circle Park, a 10-acre green space that often hosts open-air concerts, food trucks, and art festivals. Within walking distance of the park, you’ll find two of the area’s most popular restaurants, the European-inspired Thanks for Harrison and Villa Romana Italian & Romanian Restaurant. A short stroll farther reveals another hallmark of Hollywood’s creative spirit: the Downtown Hollywood Mural Project, where you can simply wander the streets and discover more than 30 large-scale works by local and international artists, turning a casual walk into a selfguided art tour through the heart of the city. Discover a refreshing escape into Hollywood’s lush outdoors at the Anne Kolb Nature Center, where you’ll wind through the mangroves to a five-story observation tower, perfect for observing the 1,500 acres of protected coastal wetland. The Marine Environmental Education Center offers an up-close look at resident sea turtles, and you can experience hands-on exhibits inside the Carpenter House at North Beach Park. With more than 60 public parks spread throughout town, nature is never far away! Hello Hollywood, Florida!

What to Wear PCCA meetings are largely resort casual, meaning that shorts, golf shirts, sandals, and sneakers are acceptable, but you wouldn’t look out of place in slacks and a dress shirt. For the Annual Prayer Breakfast, people get a little dressier; some men wear sport coats. Pre- and Post-Convention Rates The resort will honor the discounted PCCA room rate for three days before and three days after the convention, based on availability.
