    fire pits
    gorgeous ballroom
    stunning views

    Had an awesome time with friends at this beach resort! We hit the beautiful white sand beach, then headed to the Sandbar for some great food and fun by the fire pits. Perfect spot for games before we danced the night away in the gorgeous ballroom with stunning views. Just know that if you want to snag a pool chair, get out early!

    The pool area was my favorite! 🌊 Beautifully designed with lots of comfy loungers. However, the restaurant service was a bit slow when it got busy.

    I particularly loved the beautiful and elegant décor throughout Opal Sands, especially the stunning views of the Gulf from my room. The staff were incredibly accommodating, making my stay very enjoyable and accessible for my needs as a senior.

    More seating options near the pool would be helpful.

    A nice choice for a transient stop in Clearwater Beach with high value for money. The ocean views were breathtaking, making our stay worthwhile. Just be cautious about event noise if you extend your stay.

    stunning views
    efficient service
    overcrowded area
    lack of seating
    chaotic environment

    The spacious two queen gulf front room offered stunning views of the water, and the efficient pool service complemented the lovely pool area. Dining options were impressive, with fresh menu items and consistently excellent food at all restaurants. However, non-guests frequently used the pool, causing overcrowding and a lack of seating for hotel guests. Moreover, there seemed to be no clear policies in place, making the pool area feel chaotic at times. Despite these issues, the overall experience was mostly enjoyable.

    We had an amazing time soaking up the sun at the beautiful sandy beach nearby and enjoying drinks at the tiki bar, gathering around the fire pits in the evening. The views from our room were simply stunning, making it the perfect spot for our family getaway with colleagues.

    beautiful view
    friendly staff
    enjoyable pool
    unclean room
    crowded pool
    expensive parking

    The views from our spacious Gulf front room were stunning, and the pool area was enjoyable despite being crowded. However, our room wasn't cleaned one day and the valet fees added up quickly, which could be improved. Overall, a pleasant stay with excellent views and friendly staff, but consider the additional costs.
