First and foremost the staff, especially Marina! Being greeted by someone who exudes joy and love for her job starts anyone’s experience with a positive outlook. I had a negative experience off the property and she reminded me to be positive and all would be alright and it was. From sun up throughout the day she was a bright and shining star!

The Skybeach hotel and Marina is a Hidden oasis at the tip of Saint Petersburg. And although the hotel is still recovering and rebuilding from hurricane damage, we had a lovely, relaxing, and thoroughly enjoyable stay. Special recognition should go to Marina at the front desk whose lively attitude and cheerful service elevated the whole experience. The amenities, the sky bar, the music on weekends and the private beach were just delightful.

Michael

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Place was under construction from hurricane damage. No first floor rooms due to flood damage. Nothing but a food truck onsite to get food. Beach was full of broken glass cig nuts etc so not clean. Room had 1 chair and ceiling fan didn’t work. Bathroom was very outdated. No activities other than drinking at the bar. The bar was nice and the service staff was very good. Only small pool was heated. Larger nice pool was not heated. Hot tub was tiny. Was charged by hotel for first night above what I had paid to Expedia for the prepaid price. No elevator to get to second floor with large suitcases. Overall the experience was low budget but paid a high price. Maybe when all the repairs are done it will be a nice place. The website lists everything and no mention of current condition. Coffee shop wasn’t open.

This is an excellent hotel with great potential! We loved the pool options and beach was beautiful. We know that they are recovering from Hurricane Helene and look forward to see full amenities (i.e. cafe, water sports) return once construction is completed. The staff were very friendly and helpful!
