What a cute, reasonably priced family owned and operated business to stay in the heart of St Pete Beach! Very clean and nicely decorated. The pool was crystal clear, but the heater hadn’t been installed yet so a bit chilly. We also wished there was ICE available!! I would recommend and stay here again.

I checked in and the girl was very nice and accommodating. The I drove around to my room. When you drive up to your room and park outside of it you think, Oh not so nice. Then you walk into your lovely room. The room leads to a beautiful courtyard. All of the rooms are around the courtyard which has the pool. We had 5 rooms between us for a friend getaway. We had everything we needed. We had a fabulous time. We only left to go to the grocery store and to go to the beach. I was truly an unforgettable weekend. The staff was so friendly and kind. The restaurant was delicious. We will definitely be coming back.

After staying several times, the management has been become argumentative. Extra fees tacked on when I paid cash. And now a $50 of cleaning fee for my cat's hair. I stayed at a motel after theirs no cat problem. Problem is with management wanting $50 additional for an unrealistic cause.

The place is nice. But management is not good. Indian male telling me that I have to pay a $50 cleaning fee from my cat. I lint rolled the bed comforter. There was very little trace of hair left. I stayed at another property after that and the cleaning staff reported room clean on checkout. The cleaning lady at Island Sun is grabbing money for herself.
