The beach and room is what this resort is all
about. The beach could not be better. 90
degree water in Sept. Well groomed sand and
very clean beach.
The first impression when you arrive is not
good. Very ugly exterior and very uninviting
office/reception. Elevator is hot and slow.
The rooms are very spacious; but not very
modern. I would like to see granite counter
tops and more kitchen stuff, maybe a jacuzzi.
However the rooms are comfortable.
The building is the worst piece of architecture
I've ever seen; but if all you want a good room
and a great beach without the thrills, this is a
great, practical place. Our front door was near
the trash chute which smelled really bad. If
you make it from the lobby to the room or from
the beach to your room, all is good.
Also it's dead center between Clearwater and
touristy places. Nice and quiet residental area
but not too far from restaurants and stores.
Good views from ALL balconies.
The hot tub is big and faces the ocean. The
tikki hut/bar looks good but it's not attended
very well. Don't expect too many exotic drinks.
There is a liquor store across the street.
Probably best to make your own.
The pool is fine. Nothing fancy, but large
enough.
Free hotdogs on Wednesday and free donuts
on Tuesday. Ain't the Hilton but it's great for
beach bums and fishing. Don't expect game
rooms, lazy rivers and stuff like that. Very
basic. But the beach is incredible.
For restaurants, we liked Guppy's, Crabby Bills
and Shells.
Did I mention the beach is great? You gotta go
fishing. Clearwater marina has many
reasonable charters. Incredible fish.
