Fair Havens is a fabulous structure on Sunset Way, in Passagrille. I was just at Passagrille in April, and if you have been reading other areas on this site, it is an extension of St. Pete Beach. In fact, if you drive along Gulf Way – so incredibly beautiful still, the historic community has been preserved and promoted in a delightful way without compromising their past for the present. There are a lot of people who swell here during the spring break, but it is not on the same busy road that Gulf Boulevard is. Continue reading →

I have to say I was not expecting this newly renovated inn at St Pete Beach. It is a far cry from the regular hotels and beach inns on Gulf Boulevard. The exterior has been overhauled from the old Travelodge that it once was, and the rooms are hip and refreshing compared to the majority reviewed so far. I feel like I’m in another town.

I have not covered this hotel yet, because my first impression had been from all the funky designs on the front of the building, that I should look for others first. Howsoever, it seems that this is a pretty popular holiday spot and you can’t necessarily judge a cover by its carefree use of the paintbrush, or by bedspreads. Not only that, this place has fantastic ratings by guests. People love this place and I’m afraid I’ve neglected to note this beach hotel when it should have been one of the first to be noticed.

Alden is a popular resort on St Pete Beach. I would call it a hotel and not really a resort. They are located at 5900 Gulf Boulevard and are on five acres with beachfront for your ever loving ocean pleasure. In calling it a beach resort, it is lacking a few of those amenities you might be used to, but based on popularity, it is well-loved and has many return guests. Continue reading →

Whenever I see the title Motel Apartments, it conjures up in my mind a motel from the 40’s and 50’s, with pink paint and lime cadillacs sitting outside. That is partially true for this motel. Continue reading →

I’m biased when it comes to Passagrille, which is an extension of St Pete Beach. It’s where I always went as a child growing up, and our first photos of Florida were at the hotel we ended up going to every year, right across the street from the beach. Continue reading →
