The pool is too small and there is no good outdoor space other than Bongos beach bar. It didn't feel like a beach resort

The structure is unique with it being round. That part added character to the rooftop lounge/bar and the restaurant Spinners that did rotate. Our reservation time was perfect to get the best view of the sunset. I really liked the fact the hotel was not a big hotel. It has 12 floors including the rooftop restaurant but not aisles and aisle of rooms or multiple buildings on the property. Self parking was never an issue. I do think the timing of our stay was perfect for us. Not dead and not too busy (5/5-5/8). The private beach cabanas were amazing. That allowed us the ability to stay out there longer being about to rotate the cabana based on preferred shade/sun. I actually fell asleep for an hour under the cabana and I never do that! The vibe was great. Usually I get hot sooner than later and need to migrate to the pool but that never happened. Great food located on the property and right around the property. Bongo’s is a must for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

Just completed a stay at the Bellwether. This was our 3rd trip to St Pete Beach and this was by far our favorite hotel. Always able to snag a a complimentary cabana or umbrella… complimentary ice cold water/bottled water and drinks coupons was a pleasant surprise. Staff was always friendly and accommodating. Definitely more of a resort feel than any other hotel we’ve stayed at in the area.
