The location is absolutely perfect! Great dining on site and close to everything St Pete has to offer. The resort is beautifully decorated, And nothing beats watching the sunset from the private beach. All of the staff were very friendly and our room was clean, quiet, and comfortable.

Pros: The staff was very friendly and immediately switched rooms when our first one had not been cleaned prior to check in. The bar is fun with live music. The breakfast/lunch cafe has a great selection. Pool is kept warm. The floors are wood vinyl which I prefer over carpet in rooms. Convenient location and right on the beach. Plenty of dinner options. Rooms had plenty of space. Cons: This is an older motel that has had makeup only renovation. The halls are dark and damp. Doors don’t shut completely to keep sound out. Furniture in the rooms is cheaper quality and creaked every time I rolled over in bed or opened the door to the mini fridge. Bathroom shower is 6ft tall, so really small for an above average height guest. Small bathroom.
