I haven't stayed here YET, but I did drop my friends off as they are staying for a long weekend and I took a tour around with them. What a FABulous, fun, retro place! Nestled between two large resort type places, this two story motel has a wonderful, fun check in area, beautiful pool, beach area that includes beach chairs and cabanas, corn hole and the cleanest room I have ever seen! Within walking distances of so many eateries and you can take the courtesy shuttle down to catch the boat out to Shell Island, and surrounding places anywhere up & down Gulf Blvd. I fell in love with it and I'm local, Manatee County. Now, I'm going to round up the girlfriends and make this our beach getaway trip!

Beautiful location! Great amenities! Perfect for families, couples or singles. Rooms are adorable 50’s old classic beach vibe. Bed super comfy, clean soft linens and fluffy pillows. Cherish was very kind and helpful. All the staff were attentive, professional and hard working. Thank you for the delightful time!

I have stayed here now 4 times, I can’t speak highly enough of the entire staff. They’re the absolute friendliest and accommodating folk I ever met. The property is spotless and quiet. Rooms are excellent with so many amenities and upgrades. Chris’s tiki bar is an additional bonus while staying here. Great restaurants within easy walking distance. I can’t wait to book another getaway here.

Great location right on St Pete beach! Such a cute little hotel with many amenities on property and walking to distance to food and stores on Gulf Blvd. The front desk staff and management team was excellent! The room was clean, spacious and super cozy. The room was a little dated and a little noisy (thin walls and weird set up on the connecting rooms) but definitely worth it for the price I spent. Would definitely come back!

I had an amazing stay at Plaza Beach Hotel! Aaron went above and beyond helping me with my car for two days. He helped with my battery and made sure I was safe to drive home. I’m so grateful for his kindness. The entire staff was friendly, the room was clean, and the location was perfect close to everything, with a private pool and beach. I would definitely stay here again!
