“Great hotel and great location”
The location of the hotel is prefect. Close to the beach and nice swimming pool. Rooms are great and have a big terrace. We had the chance to have ocean views so we saw the magnificent sunset. Nice to stroll to the Pier or stop in a crab-shack. Lots to do

“Underwhelming”
When arriving at the hotel, it was beautiful. The valet staff were helpful and directed us towards reception. We arrive a few hours early and luckily our room where available to check in. Rooms where spacious and clean. There was a strong odour on our balcony, but a short trip to the concierge this was rectified and two free drinks tokens offered which we greatly appreciated.

“Comfortable but costly night away”
The location of the property was great. Walking distance or a short trolley ride to many Clearwater Beach attractions. The ocean view room was very nice - breakfast on the balcony overlooking the ocean was really special.
