5. Sheraton Sand Key Resort
A highlight of a stay at the Sheraton Sand Key Resort is the chance to hang out on the resort’s expansive 13-acre private beach. Here, you can spend the day relaxing on comfortable lounge chairs or in a rental cabana, or take time wandering and exploring the surrounding area.
There are many other things to do here, too, including enjoying a game of tennis on one of the three floodlit courses, working out in the fitness center, or even (heaven forbid) catching up with a little work in the well-equipped business center.
Another plus is the large heated beachfront swimming pool (the kids have their own), with its comfortable lounge chairs and umbrellas and poolside café, along with the large, 12-person hot tub. On-site dining is also available.
6. Hampton Inn & Suites Clearwater Beach
The Hampton Inn & Suites Clearwater Beach resort is another new accommodation option to have sprung up in recent years. It’s a great location for those wanting to spend time exploring the area, whether it be dining, shopping, or taking in some entertainment.
Guest amenities include on-site restaurants, a large outdoor heated swimming pool (complete with waterfall and pool cabana rentals), a fitness center, outdoor terraces and meeting spaces overlooking the beach, plus a convenience store. Free breakfasts are included in your stay.
