Zota Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here multiple times. It's always amazing"

Siesta Key Beach Resort and Suites

8/10 Good

"Location! Location! Location! The room was a little smaller than we had anticpated but the location just off the beach and so close to the village was amazing! The staff was so helpful and friendly. The amenities were amazing with the complimentary beach equipment, laundry facilities, ice and water. I'm glad our room was near the pool and NOT near the Tiki Lounge. The key pads on the door were a nice feature, but it was hard to hold the the key pad cover up when your hands were full. The bed was comfortable and clean super soft towels every day were a nice touch too! We willl be back!"

Frequently asked questions

What other neighbourhoods are similar to Bay Island?

While Bay Island offers a unique blend of waterfront living and convenient access to St. Petersburg, similar experiences can be found in the nearby neighbourhoods of Isla del Sol and Tierra Verde.

Isla del Sol, located just south of St. Pete Beach, is a collection of islands known for its golf course and private beaches. It's a nicely maintained area with a mix of condominiums and single-family homes, offering a similar relaxed, island lifestyle to Bay Island.
