The view was fantastic and the sunsets spectacular from the balcony or hammock. The walk to the beach is only .15 miles, not bad even if you’re carrying the chairs and umbrellas they provide! The pool wasn’t crowded. It wasn’t luxurious, a little dated, but very comfortable and had everything you could need, including lots of space.
I was sick the whole time I was there so o didn’t get to walk the path that goes in front of all the hotels but that looked great for an early morning walk or bike ride.
The beach was nothing special (and no lifeguard), but it wasn’t crowded and I saw dolphins and manatee in the few hours I was there. The manatee were in knee-deep water!
Can’t say much about the surrounding area, but I was able to DoorDash everything I needed. I’d been staying at the Hyatt in Clearwater and needed a place to recover from COVID for a few days before traveling. The Hyatt was gorgeous but I preferred this for the peace and quiet and view. Front desk was often unattended which I didn’t love (hours are 9-5), but the staff was very nice.
