Hands-down, the best thing about this hotel is its location RIGHT on the water. We were traveling with an 8-month-old, so it was lovely to pop down to the beach for short periods, and to look out over the water while we waited inside the room for his naps to finish. Definitely worth springing for the beach-front room. The room... More

The hotel is set on beautiful Madeira Beach, within walking distance to John's Pass. Many of the hotels on Pinellas County beaches are very dated. This one has a renovation behind it. However the shower is quite small and the way they have it set up kind of felt like a crypt. We also returned our 2nd day to find... More

Great place to stay. We stayed poolside but we still had a awesome view of the beach! Staff was wonderful and the room was very clean and comfortable. The only bad thing was that we could not stay longer lol.. We would stay here again.. More

We were charged 20.00 per night because it was mothers day. The extra charge was added not only for the actual "Mothers day" but also the next day, so we paid 40.00 extra over the advertised rate. Felt ripped off. Hotel is expensive enough without the extra. Nice location and very clean. Other businesses give discounts for Mothers Day, this... More

We have been staying at this motel for years, but we have noticed a decline in service. The main complaint that we experianced was the pool. In the past they have heated it well, but on the last trip it was as cold as the ocean. I asked twice for the staff the check it, but I was given lip... More

We stayed at this hotel from the 25th April until the 2nd May. After a week around Orlando's parks we were ready for some quite time. Our stay was wonderful. From the offset the staff were friendly and helpful, pointing out places to eat and providing us with discount vouchers. The room was clean and comfortable, and our balcony overlooked... More

We were traveling with a baby and stayed four nights. Unless oceanfront rooms are smaller than rooms to gulf bv the sceenic view is spectacular. Hotel provides fair and family friendly service. Beach toys availabe for free Restaurants walking distance. White sand beach and smaragd gulf water. Late arrival is not a problem. You will get your key even off... More
