What a disappointment!

My family and I have been guests at the TW Hotel for several years now. About a month ago we returned from our last stay at your resort in St. Pete, but some unfortunate incidents prompted me to write this review. We stayed in room 2403: #1: One of the parts of the lock simply didn't exist; it had apparently been ripped off, making it impossible for us to provide greater security for our family. #2: You can see the poor condition of the curtain. There were so many holes it looked like there were an army of moths. #3: Bathroom exhaust fan cover heroically holding onto the wall to prevent it from collapsing. #4 and #5: You can see dozens of stains from something that apparently exploded in the kitchen on the chandelier, bathroom door, and ceiling. #8 (#9 is a video but couldn’t be attached here): This was probably the one that bothered us the most), there was a noisy renovation going on in the apartments directly below ours. It was impossible to sleep late during our stay because the machinery was extremely noisy. I fully understand that it's impossible to undertake a renovation of this type without generating noise, but we were shocked by the hotel management's failure to block off the rooms surrounding the renovation and to place guests as far away from the area as possible. #11: After an 1 1/2 hour delay, this is how the kids had to watch the movie (the staff just didn’t know how to operate the projector). A have a few more to say, but my 1,500 characters are gone. Thank you

Unfortunately, our weekend had rain Friday night. Saturday morning, we woke up prior to sunrise to take advantage of clear skies, but hotel amenities didn't open until 9 & 10am. By the time they opened another storm was coming through - and the hotel amenities never opened. Rain for the rest of Saturday. Sunday was the same thing - we are up and ready, but hotel amenities were not open. Once again, by the time amenities opened it was raining again. The hotel cannot control the weather - but it would be nice if they at least tried to accommodate around FL rainy season. We've stayed at Trade Winds several times over the last 10 years - it definitely doesn't appeal like it used to. There are several obvious deferred maintenance items and damages from previous years' hurricanes.

Overpriced and Outdated

I stayed at Islands Grand TradeWinds recently, and honestly, the place feels pretty outdated. The rooms really need some renovations. On top of that, after already paying a lot for the room, having to pay extra for amenities and parking felt a bit over the top. For the price, I expected a fresher, more updated experience.

Vacation but still working

Well let's see as I was checking in everything seemed ok I was handed my wristbands and then the nice lady at the desk says, we require a $200 a night deposit. I wasn't expecting that but we worked it out. One day in the middle of our vacation wednesday or Thursday the toilet was overflowing I call the front desk they were sending someone up, after about 7 minutes I walked outside the room to stop a resort employee so I can get help at this point my wife had every towel on the floor in the bathroom. Finally someone is walking by I say I need help he calls someone I speak to them they say I'm sending someone right over Mr. Potter, well after 10 minutes no one came over. I walked to the room were towels are stored I grab 3 and made my own plugger and unclogged the toilet...WOW what a vacation. I'm a Maintenance Mechanic at Meadowood Senior Living this what we do 10x a week. I wanted a week were I didn't have to do it.

Went for a final hoorah before school starting with my young (6&8 year old) and had a great time. I read a lot of reviews of this and other hotels in the area before booking and there were some things that I agree with and others I feel like they have addressed. Check in was great and they got us in our room quickly. Overall the front desk staff were cordial but not the nicest from the couple of times I had to interact with them on a variety of question and just witnessing them interact with other guests. The rest of the resort staff were very welcoming and engaging when interacting and I appreciated the efforts they made (especially with a large convention also staying there). The amenities and extra activities were great. Well, worth the stay in the extra money that you pay for them. The pools were also equally as nice having the variety of them. They were on the warmer side, but that is understandable, considering it’s Florida and the sun. I will say there was a pool that had all shade, which was very nice for escaping the heat and was on the cooler side. As someone had mentioned in previous reviews, there was not as much shade near the pools, and there could be more of a benefit of having some umbrellas that would be nice. The beach was great and the free umbrellas for the last three rows were also very helpful. As far as the state of the hotel, there is definitely room for upgrades as many of the areas, including the rooms seemed outdated.

Great family friendly hotel. Lots of activities for the kids to enjoy and there is a kids club so the adults can have a night out if you wish. The only issue we had was the food at the hotel restaurants. The fish and chicken we ordered at 2 different on site restaurants were over cooked and very dried out. Eat off site if you can.
