Really loved this location. This was my first time choosing a smaller hotel and it was sooo nice. The room was clean, loved the mini kitchen, loved the big balcony, friendly staff, loved the kids pool and big pool and how it was gated in and clean, and never over crowded. The bar and sitting area outside was cute. My only dislikes were that you had to pay for ice (no ice machine) and the balcony didn’t have a sliding door that you could keep open in the hotel room. Besides that, everything was perfect. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back!!

They offered some activities during the week. Like their famous chowder complimentary for guests for Wednesday lunch. Also there was a movie night. Bar specials for guests. Just wish there were beach chairs for guests rather then renting them. I bought for 2 days, but couldn't take back on plane, so I donated to hotel for others

This was our first time staying here and were pleasantly surprised and impressed with the quality of the facilities. The beach was great and quiet. The Tiki Bar was exceptional, the rooms were spacious and had kitchenettes that were very helpful. The karaoke bar across the street was amazing and it was a very short walk to the pier and all of the amenities. We are already planning our next trip and will definitely stay here

Very clean and walkable to many places. Friendly staff. Love that they have a walk-up bar and complimentary food specials on certain days of the week. We had their gumbo which was great!

Great location, friendly staff, great overall value. This place was probably top notch 30yrs. ago. Though dated, everything was functional. I thought it was going to be a fairly quiet and peaceful stay, but between other guests having ‘elevated’ conversations in the hallway, and the apparent lack of vehicle exhaust noise controls in Florida, don’t plan on sleeping before 2am.

Daniel the front desk clerk was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is older but well maintained. The room was fine though a few things were lacking. Toilet paper was less than half a roll on arrival. No spare roll or tissues in bathroom. So we had to go to desk and ask for more. They did not supply paper goods for kitchen either. Luckily we found Walmart was very close and purchased needed supplies. Location was good and price was reasonable. The no- cancellation policy is difficult as we have a chronically ill son. We took the gamble.

We were in PC for New Years and wanted a hotel that was reasonably priced and within an easy walk to Pier Park. The Osprey fit the bill in more ways than one. We loved our 6th floor room. It had an amazing view of the gulf from our balcony and of Pier Park from the room door. We arrived a couple hours before the standard check-in time and were able to get our room without any additional charge. We didnt use the pool or hottub but that was only due to our busy schedule. Zero issues with the room, staff, location or price.
