We normally stay at the Tradewinds when we come to St. Pete Beach, but we were on a bit of a budget this time and I found this hotel for just $130 a night, including tax/fees/etc on getaroom.com. We weren't promised any particular sort of room, but ended up getting a pool view room, and we could see the ocean... More

The people that work here are not very intelligent. They couldn't figure out how to put three parties near each other. Then the guy yelled at me and wouldn't give me a parking spot. Long story but overall they were super rude. Oh the lady also tried to tell me 12 dollars for 12 hour parking was cheaper than 21.40... More

Resort was very comfortable and quiet. Great location with direct access to the beach. Cleaning staff were fantastic - very accommodating. Tried the restaurant on several occasions - very good. Room equipped with microwave, mini fridge and coffee maker. Grocery store and shops located across the street. Dophin Beach Resort is not a high end resort - it is middle... More

The card on the table next to the beds we change your linens every three nights or otherwise by our customers. The lobby people were... More

I was here for a conference and based on some of the negative reviews, I was expecting mediocrity. I was thrilled to find a place that--in this price range--delivered a lot. Easy access by car, or inexpensively by SuperShuttle from Tampa airport. Nice pool, plenty of pool chairs, gorgeous huge beach, good food, convenience to restaurants and grocery stores. I... More

Great location with wide powder white sand beach. Large room was clean but in need of upgrade especially the soft mattress and small hard pillows, Staff was pleasant, and very helpful. Property has overall tired and well used appearance that could use an overhaul! Banquet room was nice and the food was pretty good for buffet style dining.

That being said I am uncertain as to why the management does not listen to previous complaints around housekeeping- the shower appeared not to be cleaned in the two weeks, soap holder gross , ants in the room and yes as mentioned...

The hotel itself was okay given the age of the facility. However when I got ready to take a shower I noticed that the box of soap that was left in my room was damaged. I opened the box and saw a long black hair on the used bar of white soap. I was absolutley mortified. I took the box... More

Starting with the positives - Very good location for using local amenities. Rooms good sizes and with fridge and microwave for convenience. The front desk staff were friendly, helpful and always happy to assist with any queries. down side - guests allowed to "save" sun beds without question all day and never use them, signs up to say wasn't allowed,...
