We (me, my wife and our 8 month old baby) stayed at Royal North Beach for five nights in the beginning of February 2013. On our arrival, the room wasn't cleaned too well, especially the kitchen floor was a bit sticky. A worse surprise was the bedroom bed (a double bed), which was probably the worst one we had ever...

This was our first time ever visiting Clearwater Beach and I did a lot of researching on the town and places to stay. I am so happy I found this place! Everything was clean and perfect! The beach was basically right across the street and all the restaurants and bars were within walking distance. We loved it so much we... More

My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights in March 2013. Rooms recently updated. Kitchen includes stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker and plates/pots/pans/ect. They provide plenty of towels including towels for pool/beach. There is a smaller grocery store within walking distance and a Publix 10 minutes by car. Pier area within walking distance but far enough away... More

I've been working my way north from our traditional getaways in St. Pete Beach and have found a lovely gem in Clearwater Beach. When we pulled in front of Royal North Beach, I immediately said to my husband, "Oh, this reminds me of the place we stayed in Key West where Goldie Hahn made that movie!" This heavenly spot is...

Wow, what a great surprise! I booked this hotel to accommodate us prior to a cruise out of Tampa. I had walked by this place and thought it looked art deco and interesting. When we checked in and got to our room, we were thrilled. It is a quaint, well furnished and clean hotel. We will be back! Thanks for... More

We had an excellent stay at this hotel. The apartment was spacious and very well equipped and the wonderful beach was very close. The location at the north part of Clearwater beach is the best: away from the big hotels (but close enough to reach all the restaurants and bars with a short walk) and you could walk miles along...

We had requested a ground level apartment, but ended up on the first floor. We arrived on a Sunday and the office was closed. They had deposited a letter for us in the mailbox, writing the combination that would open the apartment. We came from the UK and had a lot of luggage that we had to drag upstairs (we... More

It's a great location because you can easily walk to downtown restaurants and shopping while being out of the traffic. It's also a two minute walk to the beach. We enjoyed walking to dinner then strolling along the water back to the Royal North Beach. Street parking is the only option but unless you hit a real busy time, there... More

Upon entering the room we saw what we thought was a cockroach. We contacted the office and the lady chased what she called the "disgusting bug" until she caught it and took it away. We decided to take showers, and ended up taking them cold because of no hot water. We were later told that it takes about 10 minutes... More

Shortly after you arrived, a Palmeto bug flew into your room because the door was left open -- as we explained to you at the time. Palmeto bugs live outside and only enter doors and/or windows that are left open. Fortunately we have wonderful pest control and that's why it was already dying when you found it. We were never...
