Chic and luxury at every twist and turn, Opal Sands welcomes you with laid-back beach vibes and cool art adorning the walls. Take a dip in the zero-entry pool, complete with stunning views over the beach and private cabanas you can rent for the day. You won’t want to miss the beach’s white sands, and what could be better than sitting, cocktail in hand, with your feet in the soft powder. Taste some local seafood in the restaurant, or you could have a night in with room service. But don’t just spend your days on-land, have a go at some water sports and have fun in the sun (and sea).

“Stunning location and beautiful hotel resort”

Sep 08, 2025racy975

It is hard to imagine that there’s a better, more well equipped and stunningly located hotel in the Clearwater area. We had a great stay at Opal Sands, top floor room with our family of four comfortably accommodated, a lovely pool area which although busy was never crowded, access to the gorgeous beach was unbearable, literally steps from the hotel. I could go on. We would definitely go back. Not cheap - but we got what we paid for and the location of the hotel in the Clearwater area and its proximity to all the main amenities meant we didn’t need a car for our relaxing beach stay!

“Very nice Clearwater Beach hotel”

Sep 07, 2025Wayne S

The Opal Sands Resort is a very nice hotel on Clearwater Beach. The entire staff from check in, valet (especially Matthew and Joel), the spa, and the restaurant provide excellent customer service. Great restaurants at both the Opal Sands and the Opal Sol. The Tiki bar by the beach has good drinks and sandwiches. The beach service has nice options and you can set up your own chairs and umbrella by the water. The beach is very clean and the entire area is very picturesque
