Bilmar Beach Resort
St Pete Beach, Tampa and Clearwater/St Pete
3.5 stars
This seaside family-fun hotel has a prime beachfront location, you can take to the sand for a sunbathe, or the sea for some kayaking at ease. A little wander along the beachfront trail will take you to St John's Pass one way, or St Pete's Beach the other (you can also get the free island hopper if it's a bit too hot for walking) so you've got restaurants, bars and shopping in either direction. Back at the hotel the sundeck is a great place to catch the rays and enjoy some family games together. And Wave Zone will keep the kids happy, with more games and a pool table, whilst you grab a drink or a snack at the cafe. When the sun is setting, head to Sloppy Joes for happy hour out on the deck, and no doubt you'll be tempted to stay for dinner with the aroma of fresh seafood around.

“Poor maintenance and lack of professionalism by staff”
Nov 09, 2026Charity T
Sadly, I wish I could leave a better review but our experience at Bilmar Beach Resort was extremely disappointing, and the way our concerns were handled made the situation even worse.
We checked into the resort at approximately 1:30 AM and checked out by 2:30 AM, occupying the room for only about one hour. After using the shower, we discovered that the bathtub was not draining properly. We also found numerous small bugs throughout the bathroom. The presence of bugs and the condition of the bathroom made the room unacceptable for us, and I was unable to stay.
We brought these issues to the hotel's attention. Despite checking out almost immediately after arrival and explaining the conditions that prompted our departure, the hotel refused to issue a refund.
Equally disappointing was the manner in which our concerns were addressed. Rather than receiving a professional, understanding, or accommodating response, we felt the staff were condescending and dismissive.
We understand that unexpected maintenance issues can occur, but cleanliness, functioning bathroom facilities, and appropriate customer service are basic expectations. We paid for a room that we could not reasonably use and ultimately left after approximately one hour.
The room conditions and the hotel's response to our complaint were unacceptable. Based on this experience, we would not recommend Bilmar Beach Resort.

Family Sunset Photo was amazing. Our pictures turned out exactly as I imagined. This is the 3rd time we’ve used Sunset Family Photos while visiting the Bilmar Resort .
