    The Marriott Resort on Sand Key is the perfect choice for a family holiday, with modern, spacious and well-equipped suites, each with a private balcony and full water views. Adults and children alike will love the grotto-style outdoor heated pool complete with 35ft cascading waterfall, open-air cabanas and spa tub. When you feel like a spot of pampering, look no further than Antonio's Salon and Day Spa, offering a variety of different treatments, all designed to leave you feeling completely rejuvenated. Better yet, all Virgin Atlantic Holidays' guests receive 20% off spa pricing. There's also a fitness centre for the health-conscious and organised entertainment to keep the kids busy at Lisa's Klubhouse... and, if you're wondering who Lisa is, she's the resident blue and gold macaw that perches in the lobby! When you're ready to eat, choose from casual poolside fare at Kokomos, a pizza to go, or for fine dining and breathtaking views, head to the Art Deco-style Watercolour Grillhouse, finishing off with a nightcap – the perfect end to a perfect day!

    I had a horrifying experience at this hotel and feel obligated to warn others. During my stay, I discovered bed bugs in the room — a serious health and hygiene violation.

    I had a horrifying experience at this hotel and feel obligated to warn others. During my stay, I discovered bed bugs in the room — a serious health and hygiene violation. I immediately reported the issue to management, expecting at least concern or urgency. Instead, I was completely ignored. No follow-up, no apology, no action taken — nothing. They dismissed the situation like it was normal. This is not just poor service — it’s dangerous. The lack of responsibility for guests’ health and safety is outrageous. I was left with itchy bites, ruined belongings, and no refund or resolution. The staff was unresponsive and disrespectful, even hanging up on me when I tried to call multiple times. This hotel clearly does not care about customer safety or cleanliness. I would never stay here again, and I strongly advise others to avoid it at all costs. Read less

    Do NOT stay at this hotel. Received a voicemail at 11 pm while flying in to tell me the hotel was overbooked and I had no room.

    Lovley hotel and most of the staff friendly and competent. Food was excellent. The young receptionist on check in did not listen to my questions and obviously did not understand what I wanted. She allocated me a room overlooking the pool, which was always busy. There was music from the bar most of the day. I did not realise I could requesst a chang until it was too late. Better training required to assess customer's needs. Who would place an older, single lady in a noisy room without checking that was acceptable? Or were they full? Customer service were exceptionally helpful. The pool was constantly busy and the beds very close together. People can purchase a day ticket and use the facilities. Lots of children playing ball games and yelling. Trolly bus great. Beach shuttle great. A great place for familites but rather busy and noisy for my taste. Read less

    Choose this gem for a week away to celebrate our 20th anniversary. The room was spacious, views from bay & gulf sides were an added plus. We saw stingrays and dolphins from the balcony. Location of the hotel is perfect and all of the amenities they offer are an added bonus. Sand Key Park beach is across the street. Their shuttle will take you and you get two beach chairs & umbrella. All of the staff were very friendly. The bellmen were the most kind gentlemen I have encountered. Ty at the front desk was super helpful & responsive when we had an issue in the first room we got checked into to. He was able to switch us to a different room early the very next morning. He also sent a special gift to the room after hearing it was our anniversary. Our week away was nice and relaxing, thanks for the memories. Read less

    Great location and very friendly staff! The trolly is great for getting to Clearwater and the shuttle to the beach is fantastic. The food and bar at the pool are great! I stay at A LOT of Marriotts and this one is worth going back to. Highly recommend!
