A great place, to stay!

When in St Pete, SkyBeach Resort is the place To stay. This was our 2nd annual guys weekend for us. We’ve been friends for over 50 years and it’s a great place for us to hang out for the weekend. Great staff from the front desk, the bar/restaurant and the house cleaning crew!

A Great Trip to St Pete

I had an amazing stay at Skybeach this week with my best friend. James at the front desk was so helpful with anything I needed, and all of the staff said good morning/afternoon when i walked by them. The pools were clean with plenty of chairs, ice water and towels available, and the beach cabanas and hammocks on the sand are so beautiful. My only small issue was I didnt have a QR code for room service, but the restaurant was steps away from my room so it didnt really bother me. Other than that, the room was very clean and nothing was broken or damaged which is all i could really ask for in a hotel room.

We absolutely LOVED our stay there! The lady at the front desk, Marina, helped make our vacation fantastic with all her help and knowledge of the area with restaurants and things to do! Fantastic front desk service! However, we did have to switch rooms once due to a rattling AC, but they were amazing about trying to fix it and when it didn’t work, they happily gave us another room. The pool there is one of the best pools I’ve been it! Clean, relaxing and lots of fun! The private beach was nice too! The only downfall is the resort only has one restaurant for lunch/dinner and we got tired of the food really fast! There’s just so many other options in the area you can bike or uber to. Best vacation and I’d stay there again!

“Resort” definitely describes Skybeach! It is beautiful, clean and in a tucked away area in south St. Petersburg. There are enough activities here that I could stay a week and never leave the facilities. All the staff were pleasant, when I got there and when I was leaving someone offer to help me with my suitcase! Aldo, on check was so nice and helpful while still being professional! Annaleise in house keeping does an excellent job as well! I will definitely return here and stay longer next time!

untrustworthy

We arrived and checked in, upon arriving at our room we realized it was not what we had reserved. Our reservation was for a waterview and the room we got was not a waterview. Resort did not have a waterview room so we agreed to keep the room for a refund of the $100 resort fee. Property is very nice. great pools, tiki bar, pickle ball & Marina. We were disappointed that the pools were not clean and were not cleaned over the 3 day stay. Tables were at pool area were alway dirty. At check out the resort would not honor their commitment to refund the resort fee. Nice place, Nice staff. not sure I'll return...
