Excellent and as advertised. Although part of the Hilton family, this hotel had managed to keep it's boutique flavor and has a unique upscale feel that's all it's own! Would highly recommend!

Island Grand at TradeWinds
We had an amazing time at the resort. It was nice that our boys who are 18 and 15 could go do there own thing while my wife and me could enjoy the beach. They played bags and used their skim boards. Staff was really good as well.

DoubleTree by Hilton Tampa Rocky Point Waterfront
I would have given 5 stars, but they didn’t clean our room. We had to call down to the front desk, just to get clean towels. But other than that issue, everything was good. Upon arrival, the staff was very friendly. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean. We would stay there again
