The 10 best hotels in Saint Pete Beach

Discover some of the best hotels in St. Pete Beach handpicked by local experts, Simon and Susan Veness.
Simon & Susan Veness

St. Pete Beach is truly Seaside Central for Gulf Coast Florida, a glorious 5.5-mile stretch of beaches, compelling attractions, and smart resorts – nearly all with a perfect beachfront view or location. It has been attracting visitors to its glittering white sands and aquamarine waters since the 1920s, and has a fine history of luxury hotels. One of these, The Don CeSar, dates back to 1928 and boasts 95 years of distinguished service. It’s not alone in providing that deluxe touch along the gorgeous oceanfront of this hugely popular barrier island. Though, St. Pete Beach has stepped up its service in recent times to appeal to lovers of high style and rarefied resorts, including a growing number that provide self-catering options, as well as traditional hotel amenities. Read on and you’ll discover our own distinctive St. Pete Beach Top 10, complete with plenty of variety for all tastes and styles.

1.

The Don Cesar

Address:

3400 Gulf Boulevard

Price:

R4 727-R22 807/night

If there was a flagship luxury hotel for St. Pete Beach, it would have to be The Don CeSar, or just “The Don” to those in the know. Otherwise known as The Pink Palace for its comprehensive color scheme, The Don dates back to the Gilded Age of The Great Gatsby and has maintained that distinctive, casual elegance ever since.
Its 277 rooms include 316 full suites, all with beach-themed decor, as well as deluxe bathroom amenities and beautifully designed tile showers. Grand public rooms are complemented by equally upscale dining, notably at the 4-Diamond-rated Maritana restaurant and the uber-cool Rowe Bar.
Spa Oceana adds the necessary level of pampering, designed to rejuvenate and restore (don’t miss the Couples Seaside Retreat for a truly dreamy two hours). Its ultimate recommendation, though, is the simple ability to walk straight out of the hotel and onto several acres of private beach bliss.

2.

The Saint Hotel

Address:

7201 Sunset Way

Price:

R2 587-R18 875/night

21st century chic and laid-back Floridian charm meet and mingle in The Saint, a superb boutique hotel choice nicely set just off the main thoroughfare of Gulf Boulevard. This St. Pete Beach original is just a five-minute walk from the beach and wowed us from its high-profile opening, providing a fresh, new take on contemporary charm.
With its low-rise profile and vintage flair, it offers art-adorned suites and a pool deck festooned in neon pink umbrellas. On the second floor, the bar-restaurant, 82 Degrees, features a healthy slice of the city’s foodie scene, along with some of the best cocktails on the Gulf Coast.
I adore the rum-and-guava infused Talk About Bruno, and the Key Lime Daiquiri. Suites include a separate bedroom, as well as lounge and dining areas that open out onto a poolside veranda.

3.

The Hotel Zamora

Address:

3701 Gulf Boulevard

Price:

R2 561-R70 089/night

Fans of classic Mediterranean style will feel right at home at Hotel Zamora. This elegant four-story, Spanish-influenced gem is set on the intracoastal waterway just a short stroll from the main beach, so it’s well positioned for the area’s main attractions while being nicely set back from the hustle and bustle.
Its 50 rooms maintain the boutique styling throughout the public areas and add the extra touches of walk-in spa showers, air purification systems, aromatherapy, and plush bathrobes that emphasize the European vibe. Rooftop yoga classes make full use of the gorgeous open-air top deck, which really comes into its own in the evening, when bar service ensures the perfect cocktail to enjoy with the setting sun.
A spacious pool deck and all-day dining at the feature Castile restaurant – including an outdoor waterfront patio – are the other features that really turn our heads and keep us coming back for more.

4.

Bayview Plaza Waterfront Resort

Address:

4321 Gulf Boulevard

Price:

R2 036-R16 477/night

The recently renovated Bayview Plaza Waterfront Resort is ideal for secluded St. Pete Beach boutique style. Featuring just seven immaculate suites, the Bayview is situated on the intracoastal waterway for instant eye appeal, while also being just 200 feet away from those idyllic Gulf Coast sands on the other side of the barrier island.
Each room is a spacious studio apartment with well-equipped kitchenette. The resort’s amenities include a modern fitness room, barbecue area, heated pool, and private fishing dock, where we have seen both manatees and dolphins enjoying this tranquil waterway. Even better, Bayview Plaza guests can enjoy all the facilities of nearby sister resorts Plaza Beach Hotel – Beachfront Resort and Bay Palms Waterfront Resort.
At Bay Palms, there is the distinguished touch of a private marina, while the Plaza Beach Hotel adds the luxuries of a private beach and a magnificent pool deck that overlooks it.

5.

The Villas @ St. Pete Beach

Address:

6901 Sunset Way

When you need that calm, private oasis to relax after a day enjoying the many delights of St. Pete Beach, you need The Villas at St. Pete Beach. This boutique collection of 10 exclusive studios, one-bedroom suites, and one two-bedroom, two-story beach house is the stuff of beachy dreams for families and large groups, with all the comforts of home in a charming Old Florida package.
Centered around a lush, tropical pool – but also only a few minutes’ walk to the beach – the villas offer fully equipped kitchens, trendy retro decor, and super-comfy memory-foam mattresses – our recipe for a blissful night’s sleep.
We especially love this location for keeping visitors at the heart of the action for shopping and dining, with a choice of more than a dozen restaurants within a few blocks, including our long-time favorites of Crabby Bill’s and Shrimpy’s Waterfront.

Address:
