Top Boca Ciega Bay Aquatic Preserve Hotel Reviews

Sirata St. Pete Beach Resort, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Lisa at the front desk was amazing . She changed our room because the bathroom was too small for my son. She gave us a lovely room with a great view. Because of her I will continue to use the hotel. It was the second time this year that I used the hotel."

The Saint Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful boutique hotel with lots of extras!!! Can’t wait to return. Staff is excellent!!"

Hilton Garden Inn St. Pete Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Loved being Gulf front and enjoying the sunsets from the balcony. So convenient to everything - walked to shopping/dining and the gym plus music each day/night. Will definitely stay there again!"

St Pete Shores Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was extremely friendly and helpful"

The Luce, St. Pete Beach, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was extremely clean, food was delish and the beach was beautiful! Can’t wait to come back with the kiddos !"

The Beachcomber

8/10 Good

"The rooms were very clean and the AC kept it cool. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Our room location was very quiet and peaceful at night. Once you shut the doors, you couldn't hear the noise from the bar at all. My only reason for giving 4 Stars instead of 5 is that the property was doing major renovations in the courtyard so it was closed off and I had no idea ahead of time of this. One of the reasons this hotel was picked was due to the outside hammocks and seating and we could not utilize it. Was not made aware ahead of time, yet we were still charged full price for property. But other than that, it is an excellent hotel. Location was perfect as well."

Island Grand at TradeWinds

8/10 Good

"The resort was very nice,we had a villa and it was wonderful, the beach was beautiful, the only downside was some of the restaurants where overpriced, for example...a kids cheeseburger and fries $20 that's a bit much . Overall it was a nice vacation."

Bay Palms Waterfront Resort - Hotel and Marina

10/10 Excellent

"We travel with our dog and this hotel allows pets. The hotel was clean and the staff was very helpful. We would stay there again."

Gulf Strand Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Our partial ocean view room felt almost like a full ocean view. The property was quiet and comfortable. The beach access was top notch! Lots of great restaurants within walking distance. We will definitely stay there again."
