“restaurant and tiki bar were great both in price and food. We needed tobe alone and it was a great”

If you want to be alone with wife/friend this is the place to be. The reataurant/tiki bar were a great place as far as price food and service. It is like it advertises in that itis inclusive. You can leave in your car and go across the Bay to Tampa,St Pete and the beach cities. It was very relaxing and I thought it was a good time.

“Girls road trip”

Glad I responded to a special promotion on Expedia. BEAUTIFUL RESORT on Tampa Bay. Across the bay from St Pete/Tampa right off I-75. Very peaceful setting and beautifully maintained resort. Rooms very comfortable and beautiful outdoor restaurant. Had driven from Key West that day, and the wonderful resort was just what we all needed. Hopefully will be able to return again someday.

Area recommendations
Resort in very rural area approximately 5 miles from I-75. Resort much nicer than community. Don't leave resort.
Dining
Beautiful, outdoors on the bay restaurant. Food and service very good.

“Secluded safe haven”

Our resent trip to Tampa was made so much more relaxing and enjoyable by "The Club and Resort at Little Harbor". It was a quick 20- 30 minutes to the Airport, Ybor and Entertainment. 10 minutes to a Grocery store and the Interstate. The heated pools and Hot tub were immaculate. How they keep the bugs away in South Florida I have no idea! We saw a wild boar, manatees and other wildlife with out leaving the property. However, the Ybor nightlife was just as handy. When we returned to our room, peace and quite reigned. It was a delight and we will be back.

Area recommendations
Don't forget to take the hour trip to Tarpin Springs for a "Greek Adventure".

“Nice long weekend getaway”

This hotel was great for a weekend getaway. I did not have a car, so the restaurants located on the site were very convenient with many choices for breakfast , lunch and dinner. Nice white sand beach on the bay and also three swimming pools which were not crowded and a great place to read a book. Tiki Bar overlooking the bay gave a view of the Sunshine Skyway and also Tropicana Field across the bay. I had a room with a large balcony overlooking the waterway which was beautiful to see sunrise in the morning. The office also has complimentary coffee in the morning. The airport was approximately 45 minutes and I took the Super Shuttle to and from.

“Weekend in Paradise”

My boyfriend and I stayed here in June and had the most amazing time. Although it was a bit a drive from the Tampa Airport, it was well worth it. We had a beautiful 2nd floor balcony room at the Inn, where we enjoyed amazing views of the sunsets, and had fun watching the pelicans in the water every morning. The food at the Sunset Lounge is great- honestly the best bacon chesseburger and fries I've ever had! The beach is nice (not beautiful but still nice) and quiet and just steps away from our room, as was the Lounge, the Grille and the Tiki Bar, and the pools and jacuzzi, and the playground, tennis court and helipad (we missed a helicopter landing because we were on the beach). Since our birthdays had just passed, I treated my boyfriend to an In-Room Couples Massage and Jill and Bill were amazing. And as soon as they left, the knock on our door was the delicious chocolate covered strawberries, that I had delivered to our room. The grounds around the resort are beautiful and I took so many great pictures! One day, as the sun was setting we took a walk over to the Marina and was pleasantly suprised to see quite a few manatee's swimming among the boats. My boyfriend even caught a picture of one surfacing! If we'd stayed longer, I definitely would have loved to try the paddleboarding or rented jet-ski's. It was honestly one of the best weekends of our lives and we fell in love all over again. So clearly, I recommend this hotel, for so many wonderful reasons.

“Mislead”

It was not bad. It was just that i was told i had a room facing the water (Tampa Bay) - but when i got there i was looking at a tennis court. Yes, they did move my room but it was the next day. Now if you are trying to see the pretty pool area make sure you let someone know that before you pay! because that is another area, another price, and not directly off the water. You can see Tampa Bay but you will not be right on the water. Just make sure you ask about everything specifically because they do not volunteer any info
