My husband and I have travelled extensively in our many years together. We have had good service, excellent service and of course not so good service. The service at this hotel surpasses any we have ever experienced. From the front desk ....thank you Jennifer and Graham to Christy and Scott in the fabulous on site restaurant, Watercolors, and last but not least Jiri in housekeeping. The suites are a nice size and the view looking out over the water relaxing. For those who don't want to drive....just arrive...like us, there is a small mall right next door with those interesting small shops for browsing or hop on the trolley and take a free ride into Clearwater Beach. Back at the hotel, the pool there is fabulous and if it is the beach you want, there is a friendly doorman to take you over the road to the beach on a golf cart.....so you don't even have to walk. Everyone works hard at the hotel so their guests will have a great vacation. Have to mention again, the restaurant on site, Watercolors. The quality, the quantity and presentation is top notch and the food absolutely delicious and the service, well it goes without saying. Read less
