Great location only a few minutes from the beach, nice rooms with balconies and free breakfast. 2 pools and a good rooftop bar owned by a different company tops it off.

Hubby and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary here. I highly recommend this place. We stayed in a suite, which was surprisingly reasonably for such a nice hotel, location, and during a holiday weekend! We enjoyed dinner on the rooftop restaurant/bar. Customer service, food, drinks, live DJ, and atmosphere was amazing. Beautiful views from the 7th floor, no mosquitoes, and a wonderful breeze. Ugh...Just perfect. Next day my husband and I went to the beach, then we returned to enjoy dinner at the restaurant literally steps away from the hotel. The hotel gave us a wristband to enjoy the neighboring restaurants pool for free which was so cool. Restaurant had live music, and good food. All that to say, I highly recommend this hotel and we will be returning.

We love this Marriott hotel! Super clean, friendly staff and great location!! One of our favorite places to stay. They also have an amazing free breakfast with a great variety of pastries, hot dishes, fresh fruits and beverages. Absolutely amazing! We’ve been here three times and haven’t been disappointed.

Great place to stay. I stayed here two nights. Pool was great. Next door is a nice restaurant with live music and a pool as well. Was nice to have a balcony. Good neighborhood to walk or run in if you don’t want to use the gym. Roof top bar had great views and good food. Would 100% recommend.

Very good location, convenient to Fort de Soto park. Rooms are spacious and fully equipped with kitchen, utensils. Very good breakfast and people serving at the breakfast doing great job. But front desk staff can definitely do better especially in terms of helping customers and how they treat Bonvoy members.

My family and I loved our stay! We had a King suite balcony overlooking the Marina and pools. The Island Grille nextdoor had great food and live music, too… Awesome vibe! Hope to be back, soon!

Rooms where clean and spacious. Always love having a kitchen and living room. The balcony overlooked both marinas. Good amenities and located next to a restaurant and other small businesses. Very quite, and the bed was very comfortable

This hotel is a gem in St. Pete. It was our first time, and we ended up truly fascinated. The location is excellent — 8 minutes from Fort De Soto and 20 from downtown St. Pete. The hotel has two restaurants: one on the top floor with tapas and good drinks, and another more casual, beach-style spot with an excellent overall menu. Breakfast was quite good, as was the service. Dogs are allowed. The room was very comfortable, beautiful, clean, and spacious. The view of the marina and the pool was unbeatable. The marina is just steps away, and they offer boat trips to nearby islands at an affordable price for a semi-private experience. Without a doubt, we will be back.
