Resorts
“We stayed in a penthouse and it was FANTASTIC! Loved all the space, the view and the screened in patio area. The resort has tons to do and the beach and pool activities were awesome with kids! LOVE the way the cabanas are assigned, etc. We also loved being able to do activities (shell island, wave runners, etc.) right from our beach! Great set-up!!! Beautiful resort! My husband and I had dinner at Palm Court and it was excellent also! It was nice to have a more upscale option!” S.T. from FL.
“The property was beautifully appointed, had good food right on site, a gorgeous beach view from our room, and beach cabanas. Having several restaurant options right on site is a great plus. Kids loved the paddleboats. The property was beautifully maintained.” K.H. from NY.
“We love TradeWinds, we come there every year for at least a week. The Sandpiper is very laid back. We had just had a tornado hit our house the week before our scheduled vacation. It did extensive damage to our home, but we decided to go away for our trip anyway. We were so glad we did, it was a great stress reducer.” R.S. from GA.
“We always have a great time whenever we stay at your facility. As a single mom, it is a comfort to me to know that I can take my kids somewhere that we all enjoy and can have fun.” N.A. from TX.
Service
“The resort and accommodations were terrific! I was attending a conference, and all of those services were also top notch--the food was great, the banquet rooms were very well kept and the wait staff was really on top of it. Everyone was so polite. It was nice to be spoiled a little bit by good service!” E.R. from MN.
“Your staff always treats me great after my eleventh year of staying with you.” P.P. from FL.
“My daughter had never been to St. Petersburg before and had a wonderful time at your resort. Although we only had a long weekend we thoroughly enjoyed our stay ---the beach was beautiful and the young staff that set up our cabana every day was so nice! The entertainment each afternoon was great!!! We would highly recommend the TradeWinds to others!” K.G. from MD.
Dining
“The Del Monico Steak in Bermudas that was on as a special was out of this world...had it the next night too! I sat next to a local on the flight home and told him how great the restaurant was and he said that they'll give it a try!" E.S. from NC.
Kids Activities
“The kids programs and crafts were great. The activities and staff involved were also great. The prices for the activities were affordable and made it possible for us to do many things with our three children. The luau was wonderful. There was a great selection for both kids and adults in regards to food. There were tons of fun and doable activities for all ages. The DJ was fun and the fireworks were fantastic. This was a lot of fun and a great value for our family.” D.T. from FL.
Pet Friendly
"WE LOVE THIS PLACE! First off the marketing team saw my wife, son and dogs in the car and asked what was going on and she explained we recently adopted the pups from rescues after losing our 2 Golden's to cancer last year. This was our first family vacation! They posted the story on Facebook and their Twitter feed. SO COOL! The place was gorgeous, the people couldn't be nicer, great food and service! LOVED the beach and the little guy swam until he couldn't open his eyes anymore. He will not wear goggles. My family had a blast and it was just what we needed."
C.P. from Florida, Island Grand, May 2010
