    Gross

    Place is terrible. They price themselves as if they're an elite, Caribbean location....when in reality, they're simply an overpriced beach hotel, that add an extra 10% upon check out (will not show up on bill]. Out-dated rooms. Had to beg for housekeeping (told they only service on T and F). Save your money and explore the many options on St. Pete Beach!

    Hockey Tournament fun in the sun

    Phenomenal spot in St Pete’s Beach, great value and an amazing family spot , the staff, the accommodations and the amenities for the kids especially were amazing. The family visited for a hockey tournament , the entire team had the time of their lives . The kids had paddle boards , water slide, putt-putt, jet skis, beach volley ball and lots more

    Friend trip

    Rumfish Resort is a nice place to stay. My friends and I stayed over the weekend in February 2025. There was still construction going on due to the hurricane but it seems they focused clean up on the common areas and it looked very nice. First floor was unavailable at the time. Rooms were clean and were fine. We got the villa and for 4 of us it gave us a little extra room to spread out On the beach David C. was amazing and extremely helpful with getting us set up to enjoy our break from the cold weather and enjoy the beach! It was family friendly but I went with my middle aged friends and I think there was enough for us older ladies to do. But there were kids there so if you are looking for a more adult hotel I'd look for something else.

    Gulfside Kitchen

    This review is for Gulfsose kitchen. Nice location, poolside tables with an ocean view. Food is good, but expensive. $45 for 2 wraps and fries for lunch. Raegan was a great server. Very attentive and friendly. You can also have the food delivered to your lounger

    It's great

    Good food, good service! I would recommend that you try and the view cannot beat the view. Mark was our server and he was very attentive. I have been to this property before and it was as good then as well. The portions were large. I will be back again
