Unfortunately, my stay was very disappointing due to the lack of assistance when I needed it most.
Pros:

Unfortunately, I did not have a positive experience during my stay.

Cons:

I lost my key around 9 PM and there was no one available to provide assistance or a solution. I had to call a locksmith myself in order to get back inside. I found it very disappointing that there was no emergency support available for an issue like this

Great place with barely a 2 minute walk to the beach
Pros:

Thoughtful accommodations in so many ways. Larger refrigerator with a real freezer, comfortable outdoor furniture like what you find on a cruise. Supplies!! Pool toys, a wagon whether for the beach or loading and unloading, very handy and a very nice rooms updated really well. Again thoughtful supplies, extra covers, linens, well done!

Clean and comfortable room
Pros:

My daughter and I have been here before and loved it. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. We came early on check in day, which we were planning to go on the beach before checking in. But it was so rainy with no chance to letup. We asked if there was anyway to check in early, and they were so gracious to allow us to check in hours early. Thank you so much for making our stay special. We were there to celebrate my daughters’ 37th birthday.

Excellent Experience
Pros:

Great staff, super easy check-in and check-out and the room was perfect for a couple. We have nothing bad to say about our experience and we plan to come back soon. Very close to EVERYTHING (The beach, dining and anything else you may need) and all within walking distance. What a wonderful experience.

Great time for the whole family!
Pros:

We found the rooms to be clean and had everything we needed. The closeness to the beach, restaurants and beach bars was a definite plus. We enjoyed the atmosphere and had no noise issues. The only issue we had was it was sometimes difficult to find someone at the front desk.

Self-service stay
Pros:

The location couldn’t be any better. Quiet, yet walking distance to beach and eateries, coffee and ice cream. Full kitchen in the suite was nice…and although the unit was clean on the surface, it was evident that the unit hadn’t been deep cleaned in awhile. Finger/handprints on the doors, cobwebs on the lighting fixtures and stocked dishes were a bit dusty. Outdoor Grounds were kept up nicely and there were cabinets to restock items if needed (like TP, towels, etc)…that being said, we never spoke with an actual person from reservations, check in, to check out. We are fortunate we didn’t have an emergency (plumbing was superb), or I’m not sure what we would have done.

We hope to be back again…it was a very safe and peaceful stay.

While close to the beach, and clean, I would not stay again
Pros:

Close to the beach

Cons:

The room was extremely small. The shower pressure was so bad due to either water pressure or fixture and it took very long to get hot water. The hot water in bathroom sink never worked, even after leaving on for 15 mins. My daughter in law had to buy a play crib for my granddaughter, even after she had communicated that she needed one for her when she booked. There is no one on the grounds in the evenings or the Sunday morning before we left. On Saturday evening we went out to dinner, we came back around 10 PM, and there was not one parking spot, except for the ones that were either handicap or for electric vehicles. We ended up having to park on the street and pay $20. Having only one key, and no one in the office, should we have gotten locked out, was very unnerving. The freezer in the little refrigerator in the room was completely iced over.

I would not come back
Pros:

I reached out to this place after booking and asked if they have pack n plays or cribs they could provide or if I should bring my own. They stated they had a pack n play they could loan and would have that ready upon my arrival. I arrived after office hours, checked in, and went to my room. There was no pack n play. There was no one in the office to talk to. I called the number on the office door and it went straight to an automated message. I texted the same number and explained the situation. The person replied that they wouldn't be able to get the pack n play until the next day. I just went to Walmart and spent $50 on a pack n play. I was only provided with 1 parking pass, however my room had 2 queen beds. I traveled with my family taking 2 vehicles. I was asked to pay $40 on a second parking pass. Also, there was a bullet hole in my living room window.

Thank you
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay at Saint Pete Beach suites on Saint Pete Beach Lori at the front desk and her team was awesome. They accommodated everything we wanted. Anything ask them they made it happen with a smile we will be back and we highly recommend this place to stay. It’s right down the street from the beach you can walk to the beach. 🥰
