We enjoyed our stay and would certainly look to come back! The pool, restaurants, and bars were all good. The spa and amenities were enjoyable. Easy parking options and really fun 3rd Friday experience on property with music and in surrounding neighborhood. There were some areas around the resort that weren’t in great condition, like the Athena Tower elevator which had a terrible odor all weekend and the a/c in our (bath)room was very loud.

We love this classic resort, and we come back every time we are in the area. The staff is friendly, the rooms are clean, large, and comfortable. The beds have cotton sheets, which is rare nowadays. Our walk-in shower had the biggest rainhead I have ever seen! The historic spa is, of course, the main highlight at this location, and it does not disappoint! Large steam room, sauna, and cold plunge pool in the women's area. I wish some guests would follow the rules and shower their sweat off after they steam and sauna BEFORE entering the plunge pool. I think they need to make a bigger, clearer sign. Maybe just say to shower each time you enter. All three of the swimming pools are nice and large. The spa treatments are good and reasonably priced. They use mostly organic products. The Fountain Grill always serves up very good and tasty food, but there is also a wide variety of food within walking distance. Great location!

Safety Harbor is a wonderful spa with all the amenities you would want. However, as a person with mobility problems there are a few issues. There is too much walking with long hallways with ramps that lead to various areas of the building and are difficult to navigate. If you're not lucky enough to get a handicapped designated parking spot the walk into the building is also long. The hot tub water was very hot, a little too hot for me. The jets were strong so strong I began to float and people had to come to my aid to help me out! The buildings are older but well preserved with clean spaces everywhere I went. The decor is elegant. The workers were all very nice and extremely helpful. My massage was wonderful. Every spa treatment you can think of is there along with robes, lockers, showers and changing rooms for both men and women. Great restaurants and drinks for your choice. I'm sure the Easter Buffet was delicious but it cost a bit much for my pocket at $97.00 per person. Safety Harbor was an enjoyable weekend experience. But be aware and careful if you have mobility issues.

From start to finish- booking through Expedia was relatively simple, even if the description was a little confusing. Calling the hotel was a mess. They have replaced their live operator with a recording, and pressing the number to speak to someone about reservations gets you an AI BOT. It took my husband pointing it out that it wasn't human for me to realize because they had one of those garbage ai set up to sound real, but I couldn't get anywhere talking to this \"person\" and couldn't figure out why it was so difficult to confirm my room type and ask for early check in!
Lunch was amazing and the mid-day service was great. The improvements they've made since I was here ten years ago seem amazing.
Our room was very nice though the floor didn't feel clean, and the A/C barely worked. When I called the front desk for help, the woman working the front desk around 8pm was very rude. She was even more rude when I tried to order room service. I could find no directory so I hit 0 to try to get connected. When I said I was just hoping to get connected to the restaurant to order room service she said \"this isn't the restaurant, this is the front desk so I'll transfer you\" in the most rude and annoyed tone I've ever heard from a hotel staff member. Ordering room service was easy and the food was delightful. We didn't get any spa treatments this time. Overall a very nice stay but the rude front desk employee is not up to the standard I expect from a resort of this caliber.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! Our first-floor poolside room was incredibly convenient, allowing us to enjoy the pool with ease. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making our visit relaxing and enjoyable. While daily maid service would have been nice, we received service as requested, and the staff was always friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect—just a short drive to Tampa airport and Clearwater for spring training games. We also loved exploring the charming town of Safety Harbor, which offers plenty of great restaurants and unique shops. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant and convenient stay in the area.

Have enjoyed coming here for 10 years, and no regrets, but noticing a troubling trend developing over the past few years of local residents (i.e. non-hotel guests) over-indulging at the pool bar and being belligerent, rude , and hostile to both staff and paid hotel guests.

I understand the hotel is part of the community and should serve it as such, but perhaps a limit needs to be placed on how many drinks non-guests can order / better vigilance of cutting those off who've had one too many... When a \"regular\" is identified as \"Drunkie Dillon\", perhaps it's a sign that some policies need to be changed for the benefit of all.

This property is very tired and in need of TLC. We had a very loud rattle in A/C unit - no way anyone could sleep with the noise. They technically fixed the a/c but it was still soooo loud so they moved us to new room. It's just really tired place - wobbly lamps, loose facets, old bathrooms, chipped paint, Smelly hallways - it's needs a lot of TLC.

Man at the front desk is definitely not the warm and friendly type. The smell of something dead greets you when you enter the elevator. Enter our room which is very underwhelming, floors look dirty, outdoor patio and 1 chair are dirty and unkept. The best part is our supposedly freshly cleaned room has about 10 squares of toilet paper. We were definitely put in the junky building of the hotel. Not worth the price of the stay AT ALL!!!

Front desk was very welcoming. Room clean and well appointed. Lovely water views. My only complaint was the soundproofing was probably the worst I’ve ever experienced in a nicer hotel like this. It sounded like my neighbors were in the room with me and I could hear every toilet flush from above and next door very loudly. I’m not sure if this was due to my being in what appeared to be a connecting room with a door.

The facility was highly recommended and was conveniently located for our purposes. The room was very comfortable and clean, but it could use some updating. Only negative of our stay was the first day; after traveling since very early morning, we went to the hotel restaurant (which was practically empty) for lunch. The food was good, but it took 35 minutes to receive our meals, a basic salad and a grilled chicken sandwich. Fortunately, we were not on a strict schedule, but the server had no way of knowing that.

Very old hotel. The Athena elevator had a really toxic smell in it. We had to cover our noses when we used it. There was mold visible on the walls. We put out the breakfast request before bed with our selections and time to deliver. They never brought it. I called them an hour after it was supposed to be delivered and they hadn’t even started making it. They weren’t even apologetic. They actually acted inconvenienced. So I just cancelled it. I would never recommend it to anyone. The check in was easy and they were nice though.

My daughter and I were there for 2 nights and it was HORRIBLE.
First night we arrived, the first room had a strong smoke smell , so they agreed and moved us to another room, then that room had no hot water. The next morning we got a call that they were going to move us again because they had pipe issues. We were moved to a third room. When we came back to hotel Saturday night, we were exhausted to only see the bathroom floor was flooded.
I was beyond tired to complain at this point and didn’t want to move for the forth time since we had a flight at 5am.
When I brought up to the manager‘s attention, how inconvenienced this was to be moved three times in less than 24 hours, he said there’s nothing he can do about it, that he didn’t know anything that was going on.
It’s so unfortunate how bad our experience was in safety harbor.

This year the only New Year's Eve entertainment was the $259 special event deal. There was NO entertainment in the regular bar/lounge area this year, like the last 2 years with the Latin ban from Tampa. That was very disappointing! Not everyone (especially older folks) can pop for $259 each.

New Year's Eve 2026! Great band but smaller venue and a few decorations.. Buffet was okay but much better in past years... Cocktails were good and staff was attentive with clearing tables. Alcohol and steps down to dance floor are not a good mix.😳. Our room was renovated and very nice.
Buffet breakfast not worth the price. They were still setting it up @ 9:30 am. Food was tepid, and breakfast meats were like beef jerky. No butter or syrup for French toast that was not in a warming tray. No creamer on table for coffee ☕.
We will rethink our next New Year's Eve party location..

The staff were certainly not warm and welcoming. Not one smile from the lady that checked us in, she seemed very stressed. The room was freezing cold. I called maintenance and front desk several times, when he finally came, he said it was because it was old. The water from the shower was barely a trickle. Also, on day of checkout, 11am housekeeper knocked on room door telling us we would charged an extra night if we did not leave immediately. We were not impressed, we used to frequent this property but we will not return, there are far nicer, welcoming hotels in the area. I am also a Wyndham Diamond member.

The front desk confused our reservation. They told us we had 2 reservations that were prepaid. We spent about 2 hours trying to figure this out and contact whoever we needed to resolve this. There was only one reservation and their wrong information caused us to spend about about 2 hours trying to resolve this. They said the reservation was a third party named hotelbeds.com, which I have never heard of. It was very stressful because we tried to cancel the phantom second reservation before the check in date, the date we checked in. Thanks for any feedback.

The room we stayed in was in an old and run-down section of the hotel. Only 2 very flat pillows provided and mattress was uncomfortable. No complementary water provided and when I called front desk to ask about water, I was directed to a water filter machine by the elevators that didn’t have cups. I expected that even a basic room from a facility that sits directly over a mineral water spring could afford their guests with 2 small bottles of water. The outside pools were not heated, perhaps broken. The outside tiki pool’s complimentary water jugs were empty and when I brought it to the attention of staff-it remained empty and I had to wait in line for a water refill each time. The Safety Harbor area is charming and I’ll plan on a return trip.

The pool area was spacious and pretty clean. The room was clean. I asked for more towels since they only clean the room every two days and I was only there two nights, and I never received fresh towels. The tv was missing the cable and I could not get local news. That oasis was fixed right away. There were no 50 minute massage slots open only 25 minute massages. The whole reason going there was to relax and get a massage and I didn't get a massage. I probably will not go back there.
