This seaside family-fun hotel has a prime beachfront location, you can take to the sand for a sunbathe, or the sea for some kayaking at ease. A little wander along the beachfront trail will take you to St John's Pass one way, or St Pete's Beach the other (you can also get the free island hopper if it's a bit too hot for walking) so you've got restaurants, bars and shopping in either direction. Back at the hotel the sundeck is a great place to catch the rays and enjoy some family games together. And Wave Zone will keep the kids happy, with more games and a pool table, whilst you grab a drink or a snack at the cafe. When the sun is setting, head to Sloppy Joes for happy hour out on the deck, and no doubt you'll be tempted to stay for dinner with the aroma of fresh seafood around.

My Husband and I stayed here for our Honeymoon and were very impressed. The rooms were immaculate and the staff were extremely helpful. It is located in a great location within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. I highly recommend this resort.
Very good experience

My husband and I had a great session! We got caught in some rain but our photographer had plenty of suggestions to get enough poses before the storm. 😁 It’s smart for the hotel to offer this service and we are very happy with the resulting photos 🥰
Great family trip + beach photos

Great spontaneous trip with the family. Staff were so sweet and stepping straight out of our room to the beach was such a treat. Pool is extremely clean. Lots of nice little extras like sand buckets for the kids, beach chairs, boogie boards, etc.
We also did a family portrait session on the beach. We booked it the night before, met right outside…

We also did a family portrait session on the beach. We booked it the night before, met right outside our room, and had the final photos within two hours. It was so easy, fun, and the pictures were wonderful! We couldn't narrow them down so we just bought them all!
Very glad we decided on this last minute trip, we will definitely be back.
