Palmetto hotel rooms a the Benchmark

"From the moment we arrived on the property we were greeted by staff that went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Answered all our questions and just made us feel welcome. The resort is absolutely beautiful. The beach the pools. Everything was fantastic but most of all we feel the staff is what sets them apart."

"We stayed in the north building. We had an angled view of the ocean, cute little balcony with chairs. Ocean was beautiful and visible. The room could definitely use some updating, but understandable for beach communities to be the way they are. Their quaint restaurant/market is very convenient. The pool was great and the beach was a quick stroll down the path. Staff was friendly."

"Love the location. Good value for South Tampa. We'll be back!"

"This place is really cute and a lowkey vibe with good drinks with a quick snack."

"Perfect view of the Gulf of America!"

"Everything was just perfect!"

"Breakfast was good, not great. Food off menu was really good and drinks from the bar were okay. Bed comfort could have been a bit better. Staff were extremely helpful, friendly and efficient, location of hotel was fantastic. Pool couldn't have been better! Morning coffee was tolerable, but back veranda was perfect to relax and start the day. Definitely would stay again and recommend to others."

"Very noisy! The fact that you have to pay $40 a night to stay or park on the street somewhere.. that won't tow you. But Noisy and guests were not held to keeping quite.. going on till 4;30AM. Very disapointing to say the least."

"We had an amazing time at Zota Beach Resort. Food at the restaurants is 10/10. It is not necessary to leave the resort to find places to it. Amenities were in great conditions. Heated pool. Beautiful beach"
