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.

Throw a breakfast included in your stay and the masses flood down stairs to feed their pie holes. Whether it be the hung over girl shaking off that walk of shame, the guy auditioning for his Walmart expedition later in the day or the family of 10 all not showered and in pjs or those kids whipping their beach towels and complaining no Fruit Loops exist at hog buffet. But what would you do for that biscuit ? The blocking abilities of some of these women attempting to scoop up those runny eggs or over cooked sausages would put Charles "round mound of rebound" Barkley to same. How about the guy wearing those flip flops with gross nails piling his plate high to the sky! Only thing higher on that guy was his buddy waking and baking stumbling into the pit of food over indulgence. So go race down to the oink oink department, fulfill your fantasy of reducing your fellow emancipated hotel guest to mush, and start your day with greed and gluttony. You've got this breakfast buffet guy/lady. Hope your addiction to the biscuit was worth it!

I celebrated my birthday at the JW Marriott Clearwater and it was easily one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was top-notch. Every staff member I interacted with was warm, attentive, and genuinely made me feel special. 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. Overall, I couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate. I'll definitely be back!

"We visited The Deep End at the JW Marriott Clearwater Beach expecting a great rooftop experience…read more The views and atmosphere were excellent, and we enjoyed both dinner and appetizers. However, the experience took a turn when we were unexpectedly cut off after just three drinks each, despite being completely sober, respectful, and not causing any issues. As a disabled veteran, I'm especially mindful of my behavior in public settings, which made this situation even more confusing and uncomfortable. There was no clear explanation given, which made it feel awkward and honestly a bit embarrassing. We fully support responsible alcohol service, but this felt excessive and poorly communicated--especially considering we were dining and not just drinking. Beautiful spot, but this experience really took away from the night.

The staff and front desk were all friendly! The breakfast area was large. They offered typical breakfast buffet! Eggs, bacon, waffles, bread station, coffee , cereals. What I noticed was they have 2 stations for each item. Our room was facing the water and had a balcony. Great view. The room was typical hotel room with fridge and microwave. The bed was comfortable and they had a sofa bed in each room. The only problem , is the entrance. You enter in to the parking and have to go upstairs to the lobby to check in which can be confusing at first and also Elevators don't have AC! Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and quality service. I look forward to staying here again in the future!

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.
