4 Star Hotels in Shell Key Preserve, St. Petersburg - Clearwater

"The breakfast was beyond excellent 👌 I appreciated getting texts asking how things were and if I needed anything. Prompt service when I did!"

"The rooms are not updated, but are very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The transportation around the area is free if you stay at Tradewinds. That saved us a lot in transportation costs for the week. The restaurants were all very good and tasty. "

"The room was nice and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. For a regular standard room it was above expectation. The beds were very comfortable. Loved that the hotel did not nickel and dime us for every amenity. Free bottled water, free beach chairs as well as beach towels. Would definitely recommend and stay again. "

"Hot tub wasn't warm at all"

"I was in the area for a business meeting so my family went with me to hang out at the beach. Overall, the staff was not very friendly and seemed put off to help. The hotel is historic and cool, but rooms are small and for the price you would think other things would be more accommodating and nice. Prices were quite high for everything. The elevator system is awful and took so long that we used the stairs the whole stay. They were filming a show 2 of the 3 days we were there which shut down one of the avg sized pools (only have two) requiring all guests to cram into the other area. Filming also shut down the lobby and elevator area for an extensive time. I asked the front desk (two others beside me also asked) about why we’re not told about the filming and if there would be a discount. Front desk person just smirked and said that would not be happening. At the Society restaurant for dinner, my daughter who has an egg and nut allergy (we disclose to everyone) had to order a chicken soft taco with cheese. This was an off menu item they said they could do. It showed up with cubed chicken that was barely warm with a slice of Kraft cheese laying on it. It was disgusting. After voicing frustration, the manager who saw the same thing took off 10%. I don’t mind paying for things, especially for good service and nice amenities but this stay was well below expectations."

"I got a standard room for four people, and it was really small. No room anywhere to put any suitcases but other than that everything was excellent. Definitely will be going back and getting a bigger room next time."

"Nothing special. Convenient location. "

"Perfect place to stay and go see the Tampa Rays baseball games. Lots of food and drinking establishments between the property and the stadium. If you’re looking for long term stays I highly recommend the in room amenities like a washer and dryer were big enough to do family laundry. The fridge size was impressive too if you want to make your own meals. "

"Great property, friendly staff."
