    Great location, nice hotel especially after the renovation. On weekends there is music by the pool too. There is still room for improvement with the food served by the pool.

    Wonderful stay! Initially had a king facing the bayside (basically the parking lot/convention center roof) and we were able to change to two queens with an ocean view on the 7th floor overlooking the pool. Service was always excellent and the rooms are clean and modern. Deon was extremely helpful! Didn't have any problems with noise or rowdy guests. The golf cart ride to the beach was fabulous and we rented the chairs and umbrella for $48 per day. They open at 8am so I suggest going down and securing the front row, put the backs up, leave your towels and come back after breakfast. Hotel gym is pretty good with towels and lots of dumbbells with a few machines and cardio. So the resort fee is $25 a day but I was aware before I arrived and you get a free dessert and WiFi. Parking was $103 for Fri-Mon. Didn't like it but also was aware beforehand. The beach is private so it was way less crowded than it was to our north and south. Ocean was perfect temp mid-June. Lots of families and the pool is not very big and filled with kids but we stayed at the beach. They also have a cart with food and drinks that services the beach called the Turtle Express. Prices were not bad for beachside service - $13 margaritas, $14 sandwiches and salads. We went to Shorty s across the street and used their website to pre order sandwiches we picked up before heading to the beach. Overall we were extremely pleased with our stay here and it was much less crowded than Clearwater Beach area. We would definitely stay here again! 4.5

    This resort was perfect you have your access at the resort which included pool bands, bike rentals, free trolley rides, beach access and more. It was one stop over the bridge to the Clearwater beach bars and shops. I enjoyed my stay I will definitely be back!!

    My mom and I stayed here for an overnight for her birthday. Upon checking in after our room wasn't ready and we had to wait 30 more minutes until bieng able to go in our room and change. The rooms are newly renovated and very clean and updated. However the whole resort is very old and parking fee is 25 per day; which is not detailed in the Marriott website. The pool is very small, and the hot tub is smaller then normal. Some pros to our stay- Arielle who checked us in was very nice and gave us desert coupons for my mom's birthday. The updated rooms in decor and linen are nice as well. The sunset view this evening from the beach was very peaceful. I don't think I'll be staying here again it's not my mom's vibe; or mine. However if all you like is beach and relaxing this resort is for you!! 7/10.

    I had THE best time here! I thought I reviewed them before but I guess not. Being familiar with the area, I have driven by many times but the first time I actually stayed there was after a hurricane as it was included in the voucher program with FEMA. I was actually very surprised it was included because it was so nice. Having remembered that, I knew I was going to be in the area and needed a good place to stay on the beach and I went with this hotel again. It's absolutely gorgeous inside. The service has always been wonderful for me and as the best thing, it's nestled on the beach which is my favorite! There is quite a walk to get to the water but I think it's worth it. While it isn't on the strip near the pier, it's still in a good vicinity and there is a shuttle stop there which is helpful. The room was perfect and as part of the resort fee, "free" cookies are included which I'll never say no to. Those were delicious as well! Honestly no bad things to say and I can't wait to come back.

    My wife and I stayed for eight nights and were disappointed to learn that, in addition to the room rate and resort fee, guests are also charged $30 per night for parking in the Sheraton parking lot. When we questioned the additional fee, we were told, "All the other hotels are doing it," which is NOT a satisfactory explanation. To make matters worse, many of the front-row parking spaces closest to the building were blocked off with cones, preventing guests from using them. When we asked the front desk staff why the spaces were unavailable, the response was simply, "I don't know." Unfortunately, these experiences left us feeling underappreciated as returning guests. This was our fourth stay at the Sheraton in Sand Key, but based on this experience, it will likely be our last.

    We absolutely love the resort and come here for over 10 years however I would really like to mention the dining options which are surprisingly amazing. We never go out to eat because the food at Mainstay Tavern is great. Their fish chips are fresh and locally caught. Randy at the bar is great! Also they will have Thanksgiving buffet which looks delicious and of course we'll be there!

    Had a great time here. The location is phenomenal and the staff is very courteous and guest friendly.. I asked on the app if we could get extra pillows and towles because I was with 2 kids and the didn't fail to provide.. they gave us like 8 pillows per bed and a whole extra 2 sets of towels .. the beach staff was amazing.. the have a 3 rowed golf cart that takes you out to the beach(otherwise, it's a short walk but very doable!!) .. then you get dropped off at the Tiki hut where you can rent chairs and beach toys.. The beach staff Moe, Wes and Austin were awesome and super friendly.. good food at the food truck too.. we had an amazing time and can't thank the staff enough.. amazing job from start to end of our trip.. thanks All!! We will be back !!

    Really great resort. Pool is awesome and faces the ocean. Also a very nice and clean gym. I got room service for dinner today and I was overly impressed 9/10. Both the wings and Mediterranean chop salad were really good and I would order both again.

    We recently stayed at this beautiful property....went to check in and they did not want me to wait for my room and were very apologetic and upgraded the location of our room which was very nice..staff is absolutely wonderful and friendly at this property...they have a gym, a Pub,Restaurant in site and. Food truck by the pool so you can grab food while enjoying the beach and pool...They also have. AGilf Cart to take you to the shore of the beach which is right in front of the property.. they have a store inside that sells Starbucks Coffee. They have a nice Fire pit at night too, a Tiki bar where you can drink a cocktail and also watch the beautiful sunset The rooms have. A safe, Coffee makers well..the room was spacious and very nice, the reason for the 3 experience was the horrible bed....it was the worst bed I have ever slept in and so uncomfortable we only stayed the one night instead of two because it was so bad ..we went home early which was really disappointing, asked desk for something for the beds and they said they did not have anything. The location and everything here was wonderful,other than the beds ..they do charge a resort fee which gives you bike usage, trolley ride, they also charge for parking, 25.00 a night ours was waived due to handicap...I really hate that properties charge you to park your car, it is ridiculous and most do it,again the experience here was excellent other than the beds..I cannot do a 5 which like I said the property was beautiful and the location is perfect with Columbia Restaurant right across the street and shopping too...

    We had a great stay at the Sheraton. We were here for a beach volleyball tournament. The room was nice and clean and the bed was comfortable. They have a few options for eating onsite. My breakfast was very good. The staff was super friendly. Would definitely stay here again, it's right on the beach, perfect location.

    How much does it cost to rent a cabana on the beach or a chair with umbrella? Does anyone have rental prices for the paddle board and jet skis at this hotel?

    We were just there last weekend, it was $18 for the whole day for 2 lounge chairs with umbrella.

    Can u being pets and if so how much does it cost to bring them?

    Yes you can bring small dogs. But I think they limit the number of them.

    Still a solid experience…read more We came here for one evening to celebrate the end of school. We came at about 3:15 PM on a Friday and our room was ready early which was great. We were on floor 16 which is the top floor. At first, I was worried I would be afraid going on the balcony because of how high it is, but it doesn't feel terribly high. I actually recommend asking for a higher floor because that's where the best views of the beach are. We only went to the Opal sol pool this time instead of Opal Sands. They have two pools, which is great because one felt like an adult pool whereas the other one felt like a children pool even though there was no designation. It made me feel better about my two children splashing about. There is also a pool by the Spa that I think adults should escape to if they want to get away from children. The one downside of the pool is they don't have many servers walking around taking orders. I ended up walking up to the bar to put in a food and drink order because the only server was on the far side of the pool the entire time. I tried berries and bubbles and a strawberry Mo-to-to, both were fantastic. We learned we do not like the chips and salsa. My older son did and liked the queso, but nobody else in the family did. We also love the hot tub and you can turn on jets if you want. Even though it doesn't feel like they have a ton of seating, we never had a hard time finding a seat, so people do a good job cleaning up after themselves if they leave their seats. They also have tons of towels, I never thought I would appreciate this so much until we were at another hotel that limited guests to four at a time, so I appreciate that you can take towels to the beach and then come back and grab new towels. The rooms are beautiful. They feel spacious and everything is still pretty new since it was built at the beginning of 2025. All rooms look at the beach, so it is nice sitting on the balcony and looking out at the water. One random criticism is that they don't have any non-caffeinated tea, all their tea has caffeine in it that they offer in the room. Room service is very quick. We got chicken tenders and fries and grilled chicken and fries. I tried the Ahi tuna starter and loved it. My younger son loved his grilled chicken and older son ate the fries. Even though the hotel isn't right on the beach, it is literally across the street from the beach so super convenient to get to. Clearwater beach is beautiful. It has powdery white sand, and there are ample amounts of chairs that you can purchase to sit on. They only have valet so the one downside is it takes a while to get your car, but if most of your vacation is on the beach, you won't need your car anyway. I also appreciate that they have snacks that they put out at 8 AM. They also apparently have cookies at 3 PM, but we totally missed seeing that. I forgot to bring the kids snacks so this was a lifesaver when the kids grabbed granola bars for breakfast. They also have Board games on every floor, which I think is a nice touch. I always enjoy our stay here. I would recommend.

    I rarely write reviews, but this experience needs to be shared…read more Before even arriving, I received an email stating that the hotel is a strictly smoke-free property. However, on our very first day, while sitting with my family eating lunch at the pool area, we were overwhelmed by a strong marijuana smell coming from the table next to us. For a hotel that promotes itself as smoke-free, this was extremely disappointing. The bigger issue happened on our third day. There was a fire alarm going off in the hotel, but we were staying on the sixth floor and did not hear any alarm on our floor. The only reason we knew something was happening was because we received a phone call from someone we're staying with telling everyone to evacuate. If my family and I had been sleeping, we would have had no idea there was an emergency. That is a serious safety concern. When I spoke with management, I was told the alarm only sounds on certain floors due to firewalls between levels. Regardless of the explanation, fire safety should protect every guest equally. Fire travels upward, instead of an audible alarm on every floor is unacceptable. To make matters worse, management was dismissive and unhelpful. When guests were allowed back inside, we were told the fire department would contact management, but there was no clear explanation and no accountability taken. Overall, this stay was stressful and disappointing. Between the lack of enforcement of the smoke-free policy and the serious safety concerns regarding the fire alarm system, I would not feel comfortable staying here again.

The hotel itself is beautiful and centrally located on Clearwater Beach with just a short walk across the street to the beach. We booked two suites , a 2 queen private rooftop terrace suite with a full kitchen and a poolside king suite with a kitchenette which were spacious and perfect for our large gathering. The rooftop terrace was definitely a highlight, and the hotel is within walking distance to restaurants, the pier, playgrounds, and shops. I also liked that the pool is on the 8th floor with a great view and access limited to hotel guests only. Pool chairs were very comfortable, towels were unlimited with no towel card system, and beach cabana/umbrella rentals were half off for guests. The hot tub being on the 16th floor separate from the pool didn't make much sense though. Room service was daily, and I appreciated being able to text the front desk instead of calling. I highly recommend using the text feature and keeping everything in writing because there were discrepancies regarding credits we were promised. There were unfortunately several maintenance and service issues during our stay. The living room TV constantly glitched and wouldn't sync properly even after maintenance attempted to fix it. More importantly, the AC completely stopped working in the rooftop terrace suite for hours while we hosted about 25 guests for the graduation party. Everyone was hot and sweaty in almost 100-degree indoor conditions. Thankfully the terrace breeze helped, but being offered only a $100 credit for such a major issue during a once-in-a-lifetime celebration felt insufficient! The parking garage situation was also frustrating. We were told our vehicles could enter and exit freely with the resort fee, but every time we tried leaving, the room keys and garage passes failed. We repeatedly went back to front desk to get new passes and had to pay $40 to exit then contact customer service afterward for refunds such a waste of vacation time Customer service overall was very hit or miss. Some employees were wonderful while others seemed miserable and unfriendly. The onsite coffee shop was particularly disappointing I'd recommend walking across the street from The front lobby to the real Starbucks instead. At times it felt like the hotel relies heavily on its excellent location and beach proximity rather than consistent service standards.Coming from previous stays at Sandpearl Resort, I personally would still choose Sandpearl for smaller family vacations. However, I will say this hotel offers more flexibility for large gatherings and easier garage access compared to Sandpearl's valet-only setup. That said, between the AC outage, power issues in BOTH suites floor 8 and 17, lukewarm water, TV problems, phone problems, garage charges, and inconsistent customer service, I would probably try another Clearwater Beach hotel next time. We still made wonderful graduation memories and the location, spacious suites, rooftop terrace, and beach convenience were definitely the highlights of our stay.

And not one spider or bug on that balcony the whole week we were there! Five stars just for that! All staff were very friendly, in fact I believe it was a manager that bought me and my husband drinks after we walked down 15 flights of stairs during a fire alarm. (I swear nobody else even heeded the alarm, we were the only one in the stairwell). We only ate breakfast in the main restaurant (which was good), but we did have room service a couple of times and enjoyed the rooftop bar, The Tropico, for food and drinks. (The kids menu burgers and fries was plenty for me!) All were good experiences. Hotel is in walking distance of so many restaurants, shops and of course, the pier. We only hung out on the beach one day with the loungers and cabana. I was a little disappointed that they weren't included in the stay. The cost was $30 per day. Otherwise I was content to hang out on the loungers at the pool. A store called Surf Style is just a couple of doors down that has besides clothing, your snacks, drinks and all the tourist goodies.

The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful, with stunning design and a relaxing atmosphere that made the whole stay feel like a true getaway. There are so many amenities to enjoy, which really elevates the experience and makes it feel like a true luxury stay. The only downside for me was that there isn't a sauna, which is something I usually expect at a hotel of this level. It's a small miss, but worth noting.

Instead, we encountered poor communication, disorganization, and management that seemed incapable of delivering the experience their luxury rates promise. Our room wasn't ready until 8:30 p.m., leaving us waiting more than five hours. Once we finally got in, our luggage wasn't delivered as promised, the room phone didn't work, and maintenance had to make multiple trips to replace it before we could even begin to settle in. By the end of the evening, we still hadn't had a chance to unpack, shower, or relax after a full day of travel. The valet experience was equally disappointing--disorganized, unprofessional, and lacking even the most basic customer service. The mattress was also among the most uncomfortable I've ever slept on. The only employees who reflected the Marriott brand were the bartenders and the maintenance technician. Everyone else, including management, seemed indifferent to the issues we experienced. Luxury hotels command premium prices because guests expect premium service. This property delivered neither. I left frustrated, exhausted, and wondering how this hotel is allowed to carry the JW Marriott name. There are far better options in Clearwater.

    3.5/5 Stars - Nice Location, But Service Fell Short…read more I stayed at Opal Sands Resort from Friday through Sunday, and while it was a nice weekend getaway, the experience didn't quite live up to the price or the expectations. Check-In: The check-in experience wasn't the warmest. The front desk associate was polite, but the interaction felt very transactional, more like, "Here's your key, hand me your credit card, have a great day," rather than making us feel welcomed to the resort. Room: Our Gulf View room on the 5th floor overlooking the pool was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The beds were very comfortable, and the room was quiet for the most part. Occasionally, you could hear music from the pool area, but it wasn't disruptive. Pool: The pool itself was great. The water temperature was perfect, and we had no trouble finding chairs both times we used it. The music wasn't really our style, so I brought a small speaker and played my own without any issues. Unfortunately, the pool service left a lot to be desired. Getting a server's attention felt like a mission. I ordered a piña colada, which tasted good--especially whatever they put around the rim, but it barely seemed to contain any alcohol. The same happened with a whiskey and club soda; it tasted almost entirely like club soda with just a splash of whiskey. For the prices they charge, I expected much better. Beach: On our second day, we decided to spend time on the beach. The day before, we had asked how the cabanas and umbrellas worked and were told everything was first come, first served. Based on that information, we assumed they were included with the resort stay. We grabbed towels from the pool, found an open cabana, and about 20 minutes later an employee informed us there was a $50 charge to use it. We had no issue paying the fee, but the lack of communication from the front desk and other staff was frustrating. Better communication would have prevented the confusion. Food: I had breakfast at the restaurant on the first floor. The food was decent but nothing memorable or worth going out of your way for. Overall: For the price, I expected a higher level of service and better communication from the staff. The property itself is beautiful, the rooms are comfortable, and the location is excellent, but the service and food and beverage experience brought the overall rating down. Overall Rating: 3.5/5 Would I stay here again? Probably not. Next time I'd be more interested in trying the hotel next door, The Sol, which looked beautifully decorated and has two pools instead of one. Hopefully the overall guest experience is better.

Unfortunately, our four-night stay was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences we've had. The biggest issue was the condition of the room. We have photos documenting what we found. The shower had visible mold when we checked in, and despite daily housekeeping, it was never cleaned during our entire stay. The room itself felt dirty, and the towels had a foul odor, almost as if they had been washed in rancid water. The room was also in poor repair. Most of the electrical outlets were so loose that plugs would not stay in them. We couldn't use a hair dryer, curling iron, or even reliably charge our phones because the plugs would simply fall out. We ended up buying an extension cord so we could run power from the bathroom outlet. There were no functioning towel bars, and the wall hooks that were supposed to hold towels repeatedly fell off the wall. Housekeeping was inconsistent at best. On Tuesday we had to ask for bath towels. On Wednesday we had no washcloths. We asked a housekeeper, then the front desk, and finally called the hotel after waiting. Each time we were told someone would bring them "right up," but they never arrived. We eventually had to use hand towels as washcloths. That same day, housekeeping only made the beds and emptied the trash. The room was not actually cleaned. The room itself was far too small for two queen beds. It felt as though two beds had been squeezed into a room designed for one. The mattresses were lumpy and uncomfortable and felt much smaller than standard queen beds. Had the room been clean, well maintained, and comfortable, I honestly would have overlooked many of the other frustrations. Unfortunately, when the basics of cleanliness and comfort aren't met, everything else becomes much harder to ignore. The beach was the reason we chose this hotel, and while the beach itself is beautiful, the setup was disappointing. Guests are not permitted to bring their own beach chairs and must rent the hotel's. The first two rows closest to the water were occupied by blue cabanas renting for approximately $251 per day. We rented reclining chairs for about $60 per day, yet they were placed in the back row, far from the water, while many of the premium cabanas remained empty. The rows of orange traffic cones surrounding the cabana area also took away from the natural beauty of the beach. The hotel's location is excellent, and direct access to Clearwater Beach is its greatest asset. However, a great location cannot make up for mold, poor housekeeping, maintenance problems, uncomfortable beds, and a room that simply wasn't clean. I rarely leave negative reviews, but I believe future guests deserve an honest picture of our experience. Based on our stay, I would not return or recommend this property.
