The Westin Tampa Bay
I really enjoyed my stay. The room was spotless and smelled amazing. The hotel had a lovely smell as soon as you walk in I really love that they had their own private beach and the jet skis were fun. Will definitely be booking here in the future.

Great location from Tampa airport. Enough parking for visitors and rooms were good enough for an overnight stay. Anything longer I would recommend elsewhere.
