New major hotel openings in St. Pete/Clearwater, Florida
With not one but two new hotel openings in St. Pete/Clearwater, Florida, travellers to the sunshine state are set to be spoilt for choice once the US reopens its doors to British tourists again.
The first to open earlier this year is the new Hilton Garden Inn St. Pete Beach, providing an ideal tropical retreat. Complete with 144 spacious rooms, including six suites, whimsical touches throughout the exterior showcase the work of local artists Alyssa Marie and Braden Everly of the Alyssa Marie Gallery.
The beach-inspired art can be found around the exterior of the hotel and restaurant, featuring sea turtles, mermaids and pineapples in unexpected ways.
The tropical ambience of the property continues throughout the event lawn and impressive pool area. Lush landscaping enhances the resort-like experience, offering recreational opportunities along with proximity to the beach.
The beachfront bar and grille, Coconut Charlie’s, is open all day with a delicious menu of coastal-American bites like killer tacos, crispy thin pizza and boozy slushies.
Prices from £157 per night (based on 2 adults sharing, October 2021 travel dates).

Also located on the. beach, the Bellwether Beach Resort mixes vintage-Florida charm with a modern touch. The new hotel is complete with 156 rooms, including 16 spacious suites. It has a retro-feel throughout the hotel and is decorated with mid-century furnishings, vintage artworks and terrazzo tiles to set a nostalgic tone.
Guests enjoy complimentary use of beach cabanas, kayaks and paddleboards, plus a beach butler service bringing food and beverages directly to your chosen spot on the beach.
The resort also offers daily live entertainment.
Prices from £153 per night (based on 2 adults sharing, in October and November 2021).
