Really bad room stuck in the corner, terrible view of the smoking area and piled up discarded patio furniture, the door to the outside at the end of the hall just outside my room is unsecured and just outside that door is 4 big dumpsters. Was exhausted from the trip plopped onto the couch to be meet by the smell of urine! Get ride of the couch and reserve this room for employees and free guests!

Although the parking situation is very bad the rest made up for it. I would recommend getting there early to get a decent parking spot. It was very close to the beach and had a great pool with hot tub 😎. Not bad for the price.

Only bad thing bout this property is parking. Comfortable room fully equipped so you can cook in your room. If you’re bringing a lot into hotel parking can be a burden. Outside grills great location beach cabana pool. Would recommend

Our check-in process was smooth. The room was spacious and it had a full kitchen. The property is directly on the beach, which was amazing. The room charge includes the use of cabanas, kayaks a sailboat, pool and beach rafts, etc. The staff is extremely helpful, informative and friendly. It is affordable and close to Clearwater, Madeira Beach, Treasure Island and St. Pete. We have been looking for a place like this and are so happy to have found it. There is limited parking in the front, a small lot around back and they have a larger lot across the street, which is a very short walk but safe, as there is a crosswalk that all of the drivers abide by. There are places to walk to if you want to dine out but the full kitchen in the room allows you to eat in if you like. The pool is clean and the guests were all respectful about the one car per room rule, which is awesome. We will be back!

Friendly staff & very clean room
Staff was very friendly. Our room was very clean. It was great to be able to walk right onto the beach. The cabanas & lounge chairs were a nice amenity. The room had been completely updated, giving it a modern look in an older structured building. Parking is very minimal. If there isn't a parking spot in the immediate front by the entrance to the building, which has less than 20 spots, you have to park 2 blocks away. Fortunately, we found a spot with the assistance of the lady checking us in. However, we didn't use our vehicle during our overnight stay because we didn’t want to lose the parking spot. We found a close restaurant, so we walked to dinner.

We had an issue with our room the day we arrived and the staff was very helpful in resolving the issue. We could see that our satisfaction was very important to them. The only thing that I did not like was the parking situation but I understand there is not much they could do with such a densely populated area. We will be back for sure, thank you Grand Shores West!

Exceeded Expectations
We took a trip to visit family and rented a standard studio at Grand Shores West for 5 nights. The photos of the studio were very accurate- I was pleased with the authenticity. The room had a BEAUTIFUL ocean view! It was very convenient having a kitchenette so we didn't have to leave just to eat breakfast. Each room has its own heating/AC unit, which made the late-January stay very comfortable. The hotel is close to many restaurants & bars, and of course, the beach! Being RIGHT on the beach is a definite perk. Though it was difficult to get a parking spot at the hotel itself, they allow use of a lot across the street that is easy to access. The street is safe to cross and the area is walkable. The entire Grand Shores West staff was incredibly friendly, and very pleasant to work with. I would definitely come back!

Beach fun
Laurie at the front desk was really friendly and looked after us well. The studio was clean and had just been updated with new appliances and bathroom fixtures. There were 3 of us and the person on the pullout couch was not very comfortable but the room is great for 2 people. It is a cozy little hotel right on the beach. Couldnt ask for more.

Amazing location with an OK place.
The location of this place is absolutely amazing. The room itself was OK at best. I don't want to take away from the amazing staff that was very friendly. The room had a very old mattress and it was not clean upon arrival. The pool and hot tub were very nice and clean as well. Next to the beach so it's hard to complain about anything else.

Stayed over Christmas week for two nights. This is an affordable, spacious, apartment-like hotel, right on a beautiful private beach. Staff was amazing, everyone!!! You stay here for the location, the beach, heated pool, large rooms with kitchens, and price point. It checked all of our boxes for traveling with young children. Short drive to Clearwater (although beach at hotel is gorgeous), St. Pete’s, and Tampa. Lots of great restaurants nearby, Dunkin across the street.

Disliked: Amenities
Paking is not great, simply put. Limited spots onsite, otherwise it is across the street, out of sight from property. Rooms were ok, but bathtub/shower was in bad condition, cracking and mold/mildew. Positive is that it is steps from sand.

We come to this area once to twice a year and this is was our favorite location so far. Nice warm pool. Hot hot tub. Literally on the beach and you can’t beat that. Also the majority of the other people we encountered owned time shares at the property so they don’t trash it. Staff very friendly. Will stay here again anytime there is an opening when we plan to visit. You just can’t beat the location and free cabanas and paddle boards etc

Staff was helpful and polite. Room was clean and the view was good. The bed was a bit uncomfortable for my husband and he woke with pain everyday of our stay, but once he got moving it went away. We had a baby gecko visiting us while we were packing. So we put it out on the balcony. We were told the room was renovated, it was a half ass job. Just new paint and cleaned good. The tub was small and the water pressure was not strong enough for me, but it did the job. Our next vacation we may stay again but we may go elsewhere.
