Great two bedroom suite. Nice sitting area with the grill by the waterfront and small marina. Across the street is beautiful St Pete beach.
Reception crew is one of the best I ever met. Thanks Tyrel, Anna, Tanner and Ray. Super fun, friendly, professional and efficient.

If you need parking while going on a cruise, use parking doctors. Extremely reasonable rates and they have free shuttle service. Couldn't be more convenient. And muchcheaper than parking at terminal. Your car will be just across the street from terminal. You can and should book online. Paid about $50 for 7 or 8 days of parking. Highly recommend!
