I have previously stayed there and was really pleased with the location. This time the refrig wasn't working properly. the closest doors wouldn't open so I could not use the safe. The pools were not clean at all, my nieces would not go into the pool. The staff throughout the facility were very friendly and helpful in getting around.

The elevator was broken in our building, the A/C was dripping in our room in the middle of the tile floor the entire time, and finally just quit working on our last day there. The adult pool wasn't an adult pool any more or rules were not enforced. There were only a couple of umbrellas around the pools. Several of the restaurants were closed for repairs. Our room wasn't ready when it was supposed to be at check in at 4pm.

Overall a meh experience. For starters the individual that was checking me in had huge attitude about checking people in. Like she just hated being there. Then she put the hold on my account for almost 8k yes 8 THOUSAND more than she was supposed to. Luckily the manager was there the next morning and could help me get the hold off my account. She was nice enough to offer dinner and breakfast tickets. Our room was a hotel room at best. No ice bucket. Not that it matter because the ice machine on our floor hardly ever had ice in it. My daughter and I were very allergic to something in the room. Id assume mold as it had a very musty smell. The rest of the staff that we dealt with were friendly but only if they were doing something if you tried to randomly ask one something when they were just passing by they were very rude and felt like we were bothering them. EVERYTHING is ridiculous expensive. They say complimentary beach seating but dont tell you the first two rows are $15 a day. But then they dont control it so people just sit there or take your seat. Just overall very disorganized and most of the people working on the beach were just filled with being annoyed. Like we were inconveniening them to ask question. Not all some were very friendly and very willing to help. If I didnt have the meal tickets I would have been extremely disappointed in the food at the resturants for the price. They also refuse to allow door dash or anything out of the lobby. I paid for a gulf view

The other resort , the gameroom was not what was described. The resort said tropical villa, which I thought was ocean front. Disappointed in the view. The pull out couch was terribly uncomfortable. Arrived with no shower curtains. No worth the price of what we paid!!

Rooms need work/ worth it for beach proximity

Taking into consideration that this area is still rebuilding from hurricane damage. Pros: the service from all staff was stellar, not a single bad experience from check in, bartenders, grounds, servers etc. - proximity to the beach and a number of great activities for family and adults - several food options on site (a little pricey but it’s a resort) -water fill up stations for bottles was such a great perk in the heat! Cons: There are several small pools throughout the resort, however the main pool at Island Grand was in need of better upkeep. The rooms are a little run down for the nightly price/resort fee. Our bed was hard as a rock and the linens are basically two sheets and a scratchy blanket. We paid for a room with a balcony- the balcony was basically a small ledge with a fence around it. Not enough room to sit comfortably. Our family had numerous problems with their room: broken AC, TV didn’t work, and bed rails were broken. Which leads me to another con- no one ever answered the front desk phone when requested assistance. We had to walk to the front and wait in line each time. Not only is the walk long, but we wasted time waiting in line more than 3 occasions for a simple request. Lastly, it is mentioned on Hotels.com and on TradeWinds web that there is airport transportation. This is not accurate information. The hotel has two- 3rd party people they recommend but they are not insured or employees of the company. We ended up having to take an Uber.

THE BEDS HAD THESE SPINDLES WERE COMING OFF OF THEM. THEY CHARGE SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING PARKING, RESORT FEES ETC ITS JUST NOT WORTH IT. THEY DONT ANNOUNCE WHEN THINGS ARE CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER.

End of Summer Trip

We have been staying at Clearwater Beach the past 2 years but came to St Pete Beach this time around. The change was made cuz some of Clearwater Beach is still recovering from the last hurricane. To keep it simple, we will return to St Pete Beach. For what we like to do, it is a better location. If you like wide beaches from hotel to water St Pete is the place, but if you like walking the street and stopping at outdoor bars/pubs for music, then it’s Clearwater. TradeWinds is nothing to speak of. Outside of a beautiful entrance, your room is nothing amazing. I thought it would be better. Maybe it was just my room. Toilet did not flush great, bathroom sink did not drain well and molded caulk around the tub was just caulked over versus removed and recaulked. The elevator system main building is biggest problem. They are slow to begin with with both guests and service staff/housekeeping using. Further on many occasion one had to manually shut the door so the elevator would move. They charged for beach chairs in the first 2 rows on the beach while you pay a hefty daily resort fee. They indicated there was an adult pool but all pools on property had kids, I guess they didn’t monitor. You could only find music at the main pool. Now it’s not all bad, they have many activities on resort to choose from and several food options. We did not use much. We chose to spend our money at the local restaurants. If booking make sure your getting what you are looking for.

To start off, there was ALWAYS a line for the elevator (at least one in our building was broken.) Also, the elevators that did work were slow and had no AC. Our room was not the cleanest & we didn’t notice how bad it really was until we were unpacked. Not wanting to have to move rooms, we left it alone. There was quite a bit of dust everywhere and we found a cockroach behind the couch that was still alive. Our tv quit working one night and while it took maintenance a while to get there, he very kindly found us a new tv to replace our broken one. For the price, I expected it to be cleaner and better quality all around.
