RumFish Beach at TradeWinds
Staff was exceptional. Great stay. Only problem were the buttons on the elevator that kept sticking and not lighting up for your floor.

Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa
the first room was on the North side of the building and it was a terrible view of the roof top AC units and partial view of the Gulf. Moved to the South side to a different room 100% better view and room was marvelous.
