"Clearwater Beach gets crowded during peak vacation times but skews extra family friendly, with sands that are particularly powdery, shallow waters for swimming, nightly sunset celebrations at Pier 60, and stylish beach resorts fronting the Gulf of Mexico that include the Sandpearl Resort, Opal Sands Resort, and the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach."

"You would think you were on a tropical island" at the former Clearwater Beach Hotel, now an LEED Silver–certified beach resort within walking distance of Clearwater’s strip of restaurants and bars and Pier 60. "Welcoming, comfortable rooms" are decorated in sandy hues with orange and yellow highlights, dark wood furniture, local art, and balconies that showcase "heavenly sunsets night after night." The dining at Caretta on the Gulf includes a seasonal menu, sushi, and mostly organic produce. For a more laid-back meal, enjoy specialties like pulled pork roasted in-house at Tate Island Grill, just inches from the sand. "The A+ service is prompt and pleasant."

We always reserve a suite with a bedroom and kitchen. The room is always clean and very nice, amenities are provided. They have an amazing pool with a bad and restaurant that are delicious. The inside restaurants are also really good. We've been here three times and have loved it every time. The view is also amazing. It's a family tradition to come here every year. This area also has some of the best food money can buy. I highly recommend sekushi and the bar restaurant that the hotel has.

Upon arriving at the hotel, the valet gentlemen are awesome. Checked in to a partial ocean view room. Within an hour the toilet wasn’t flushing. Easy and quick fix by maintenance. Door to balcony was heavy and impossible to open. Similar to another patron, the room was above the kitchen and loading dock which was unappealing. When paying as much as you do for the room you would think an umbrella on the beach would be complimentary. A $30 charge is ridiculous. I observed saving seats at the pool for a family of five while they sit on the beach all day only to come to pool at end of day. Saving seats at the pool is out of control. The only saving grace was the towel boy walked us around finding seats for us. Very nice touch. Kudos to him! Guys serving around the pool were also awesome. Last morning the tv was not in service for our room and the other family traveling with us. As a Florida resident I am not sure I would recommend this hotel without trying some of the other comparable priced hotels. I brought out of town family here hoping for them to be wowed and have a good time, instead they had no seat at the pool, paid $30 to sit on the beach and overall were not impressed. While checking out and asked about our stay, I mentioned some of the issues. Crickets. Nothing. Think twice. There’s so many hotels to choose from.

Review as a family of 4 with a 6 and 3 year old. We stayed at the Wyndham last year and loved it, so this year we tried the Sandpearl for a more luxury experience. The resort is very clean, and the rooms were great. The valet staff were outstanding, more welcoming than the front desk. We didn’t get the champagne welcome like other guests, which was a little disappointing, but our kids were thrilled to receive beach buckets at check-in.||Tate’s Grill was just okay; we preferred the poolside menu at the Wyndham, especially for kids. The kids' club charges a daily fee, which I did not expect. In the afternoon on Saturday, a mermaid comes to the pool and does activities. Our girls loved it. We also loved the separate hot tubs for kids and adults and the beach activity station with free tubes, boogie boards, and toys. Honestly, the best thing. The pool staff worked hard to put our towels on the chairs. Even had a super hard-working man ask us if we wanted our sunglasses cleaned. I wish I had gotten his name, he was super helpful! |I found out at the end of the week that the shuttle can take you places. Definitely look into it if you want to go somewhere. You are asked to tip everywhere you go, so just be prepared for that. If we go to Clearwater again, we will most likely be going back to the Wyndham.

The resort is beautifully newly renovated. We were greeted with an upgrade to a Jr Suite that overlooked the ocean and chocolates from Justin the manager. The service was top notch and the food and drinks were good. The beach was not crowded snd very relaxing. This was our second stay at the hotel, and we will go back again. Pictures of the ocean from our room balcony. Room 603.

We have been to this hotel a few times and absolutely love it. We had a fabulous 10 days there and it couldn’t have been better.|All the staff are great and a big shout out to Crestita as a lovely host, BJ & Michael and all the guys out front and to Heidi on the concierge desk and all the lovely servers at Carreta’s.|One big plus is the shuttle service around the island….just brilliant!|We loved the renovated rooms too….hope to be back there next year sometime.|No reflection on the Sandpearl resort, but Clearwater Beach need to get rid of a “common” element which is indicative of “Hogans Hangout” and such like nearby businesses that have crept in over the last few years…..not great!!

Great experience as a couples get away. It is not all inclusive but the two restaurants on site provide a great dining experience with pricing consistent with surroundings dining options so no need to leave property. We saw others there with small kids and will be returning for a family trip this year we think it will be another great experience!

This resort exceeded our expectations!! From arrival to checkout the entire experience was amazing!! You are greeted with first class service as soon as you exit the vehicle. Our room was amazing. Everything new and updated and very spacious. Our bedroom had two sitting chairs and room for a crib with lots of space left over. In the living area the couch pulled out to a nice queen size bed. Our family of 5 had plenty of room. The service at the pool was 5 star! Food and drinks excellent!! Service at the beach was great as well. If you are looking for a pampered vacation resort this is your place!

This is by far the best resort on Clearwater Beach. Big clean private beach. Great restaurants within walking distance. Four diamond restaurant inside the hotel. Tate's grill out by the pool is amazing. The staff goes above and beyond. You could eat off the floor in this place. Worth every penny.
