Our family stayed for a few days during the Memorial holiday weekend, and our first stay at this resort. Be prepared for a 15-20 minute delay to cross over from the mainland as traffic tends to choke on the bridge. Firstly, as the last resort at the northern end of the Sand Keys strand, we loved the sense of privacy and space. (The park next door, with some wooden boardwalks, is worth a stroll.) The exclusive beach area was incredibly impressive -- unlike nearby resorts that need a walk through natural sand dunes to get down to the ocean, the actual beach extends about a third of a mile from the hotel pool to the water's edge. As others have mentioned, that also can make it a bit of a walk, but a hotel golf cart makes a constant shuttle loop to and from (can sit 5 comfortably), and I would argue that the beautiful view is worth it. The hotel itself is very nice, with two restaurant areas, a gift and sundries shop open very late (at least midnight while we were there), and friendly customer service. The sleeping and living area was good if snug for three people in our two queen suite, but the bathroom was cramped; the toilet and shower has its own door and barely has room to turn around in. The shower itself has a low placed head (I'm 5'11") although pressure and hot water was fine. The view of the gulf from the balcony was perfect. The cramped bathroom may have cost a star for an otherwise very good suite, but checking out had an awesome story worth recounting that earned that star back. The hotel is currently going through a floor by floor renovation and even though they were starting on our floor the morning we were checking out, we didn't feel like it was intrusive. As we were leaving, I was planning how to get everything down because of all of our bags (some with grocery type items) -- however, a head contractor saw our struggles and volunteered to help us get our bags down to the lobby, saving me an entire second trip. That was above and beyond customer service and yet another reason to recommend Marriott. We hope to return to see what the renovated rooms look like!…

We had the best time ever at the Sand Key resort! We were group of 9 people with 5 kids and 4 adults. Resort was very clean. Weather was hot but the beach and pool made up for it. Pool seemed smaller at first but was never too busy where you couldn't find space to swim. There is a poolside bar which serves amazing drinks and we tried very one of them!! Beach was absolutely fantastic! There is a quiet a bit of walk to the beach and it felt like ages as it was very hot but they do have a golf cart that takes you to and from the beach. Beach was very nice and warm. Kids had a ton of fun playing in the beach. They saw a starfish and some other fishes. No wonder its named Clearwater. Resort itself was big and nice. There is a coffee shop that serves coffee, some sandwiches. In house restaurant was good as well although on the pricier side. Staff was excellent and always had our Old Fashioned reedy and delivered to us in the lobby each night without a word! There is a free shuttle bus that comes right at the hotel and takes you to the pier and area where there are restaurants so ensure you use it! Overall we loved the stay and will definitely stay here again!…

I would like to thank the Sheraton staff because they go out of their way to make you feel at home. I was on vacation with my family there and we had a great time. Beautiful and clean room, excellent service at the front desk (Nolan and Cidney) they were kind and helpful. The buffet breakfast in Rusty Rest. was varied and delicious but best of all was the service, special recognition to the Manager Mr. Benito, Diane and Tammie. Definitely we will stay there again.

I was at the Sheraton hotel for 5 nights for business. I would like to thank Nolan at the front desk for their excellent service and help. I liked the shuttle the hotel offers to the beach. I found the hotel and the room to be clean. I had a good experience.

I like to find the good in hotels and understand their conditions however when Marriott charges me 231.13 for being 48 minutes outside of the cancellation window, I will be honest about a hotel. It is overpriced, in need of repairs, aged, and my room smelled like mold. I came here for a conference with my company and I went to the meeting first before I went to the lobby to check in. I requested a high floor and was given 3. That is life I guess but then the room absolutely smelled like it was growing a mold or some sort of nasty. The room was dated and needs to an upgrade. The shower leaked very bad. The pool area was nice and it is a trek to the ocean but it is there. I did not have an ocean view but a view into the room cornering mine. I ordered a few drinks at the outdoor bar and they were very pricy. So it is a good location but not worth what they charge. I do not recommend.…

Cydney was amazing. Our first night was not too great with the location and the quality of the room but Cydney was absolutely fabulous, and gave us a free upgrade facing the the pool. We hated to complain because we knew they were doing the best they could but the room that they stuck us in was not doable. I highly suggest this resort. Beautiful view overlooking the gulf

We had a great mother daughter trip here (daughter is 8). Very family friendly! Not sure I’d come back for a couples trip or girls trip, but for sure would consider again for a family vacation. The beach is beautiful and not over crowded. The pool was great too and we appreciated having the bar and small restaurant right there. There are a couple other restaurants on site, we had great burgers at the tavern! As others have said the bathrooms are small and the rooms could use some updating, but they were clean and beds were super comfortable. It’s a short walk on the beach or sidewalk to a small shopping area that had a few nice beach shops and restaurants (we loved Maggie Mae’s for breakfast and Columbia for dinner—and Dunkin’ is there too)! I loved how quiet the area was, much different than the business of Clearwater where most of the resorts are—that beach was packed!! The trolley is free and super easy to use if you want to explore areas outside the resort—we did a half day in Clearwater and enjoyed dinner at Crabbys and a sunset dolphin cruise (little toots). …
