This hotel is old, but very clean. They are located on a main road so all you hear all night is the trucks and loud cars going by. We didn't use any of the facilities so I can't comment on that. We were there to relax and the cleaning person wanted to come in to clean. We weren't getting out... More

I stayed at Lake Tarpon Resort for the wireless. Since we had a dog, we were put in an area that was in the back, and the Internet reception was poor. I had to go outside to get online. When I checked in, I was told that since we had a pet, we had to stay in that area. I... More

We stayed at Lake Tarpon Resort last May 2011 and like it so much we came back for our stay in May 2012. Me and my Mom enjoy the total package offered here. The scenery of the canal and landscaping, the tiki bar right there at the pool and the restaurant right there at the property is a great amenity.... More

This is an older property, but very well maintained and well kept! Most rooms have a view of the inlet going into Lake Tarpon, and all have either a patio or balcony with two chairs and a patio table. From my 3rd floor balcony room, I had a nice view, and enjoyed watching the herons, egrets, and even the 'gators....my... More

My son forgot his Nintendo DS game at the hotel after we checked out. Penny & her staff packaged it up for us and made sure that UPS came to pick it up. You just don't find customer service like that anymore! Not to mention that the continental breakfast was great and kept spotless.

Their customer service SUCKS!!!!!! They messed up our reservation. Instead of giving us a king room, they gave us two doubles. Once we pointed that out, they moved us to a king room, but still insisted on charging us one night for the second room that WE DIDN'T BOOK. DAY LIGHT ROBBERY!!!!!! I will definitely make sure, all my reps... More

Mr. Chuunga: After investigating your concern, it was learned that your party had booked two separate reservations through a third party online. The Resort only insures that your third party online reservations are held for you, for your arrival date. When booking through a third party websites, your credit card is charged by the third party not the hotel. Therefore,... More

This "diamond in the rough" hotel has very friendly and helpful staff. Penny at the front desk is a gem. Lily in housekeeping made our stay all the more special with her towel sculptures welcoming us home. We were in a king room over-looking the pool which was spacious and very clean. Bed was very comfortable. Loved having a frig... More

I had a great view of the water and the balcony was big enough for a party! The room did face a busy street, but with the A/C on it wasn't too noticeable. Best feature of this place is the beds. The best bed ever, firm, but comfortable and isn't a good night sleep the bottom line for any hotel.... More
