Hotel Boca Ciega Resort (St. Petersburg, USA)

With the amazing seaside views, you can see the local birds and if you're lucky, dolphins, within feet of your balcony. Since the shore is so close, you can also be on the sand within minutes, and able to have even clearer views of the sea creatures.

Having a pool and a gym onsite rounds out the vacation experience at Boca Ciega Resort. They provide the convenience and luxury of a beach getaway where you don't have to go far to relax and unwind, or chat with other guests. The staff keeps the facilities well maintained, which is another bonus for these leisure options.

Every guest is welcomed with smiles and an intent of making the stay pleasing and comfortable. Families appreciate the serene atmosphere, while travelers with dog companions love being able to have their pup accompany them. Decent costs are also encouraging to guests paying for more than one.

The condos require stronger cleaning standards, and perhaps a couple of checks to make sure it's ready for the next guest. Unfortunately, not all of the units are thoroughly cleaned, refreshed, and made properly ready for the next use.

Be aware that you have to pick up your keys at a location different than the one you're renting. It's a minor grievance, but worth noting so you're best prepared for the multiple stops.

The furnishings and appliances could use a makeover, as they're too shabby for the ambience and amenties you're reserving. Better care and quality are expected.
