Looking for a quick end -of-summer get-away, we had an opportunity to stay at the TradeWinds Island Grand Resort in August 2008 and we literally jumped at the chance. This was our 2nd stay (our 1st being in 2006 in a Balcony Gulf Front Suite in the Jacaranda Building) and we definitely would stay again. This trip we chose a... more

Just spent 6 nights relaxing at Tradewinds after a frantic week of theme parks in Orlando. We took our 2 (adult) children and their partners aged between 19 and 29 and had 3 gulf front rooms which were clean and well-equipped with wonderful views. There was a good choice of eating places - particularly liked our final night's meal in... more

We originally booked a standard room - if you're thinking of doing this - don't - the rooms are very dark & small & have no windows and generally feel claustrophobic.

Stayed for 3 nights in September. We picked this out of a coupon book and paid $99 a night. The hotel has a $25 a night resort fee on top of the nightly rate. As we has paid such a bargain rate we got a car park view (although the hotel was no way anyway close to full). The room... more

My partner and I stayed here for 5 nights.

I have been at home now around a week and have had time to reflect on a great holiday spent in America for both myself and the family. After a hectic first week spent visiting the parks of Orlando we needed a week to relax and recuperate, for this we travelled west to ST PETERSBURG and stayed at the TRADEWINDS... more

The weather was not ideal on our stay mostly raining, but we enjoyed the complex very much. Alot to do for all ages. Our children gave us your name they stayed with the kids a couple of weeks before. Only thing that was dicouraging was the "no fans in the bathrooms" for such a fine hotel. Not to worry we... more

We had booked another property through their website. Once we got to St.Pete we found a substandard room. We refused to stay at the original booking and happened upon TradeWind Island Grand. We had our daughter find them on the web. Man, are we glad we found this property. Everything was first class. Plenty of places to eat without leaving... more
