Comfortable beds and clean rooms. Hotel restaurant was delicious. All staff were super helpful and friendly. Beach is right off of pool, down some stairs. Can rent chairs, umbrellas, and cabanas from the beach. The rental is through Clearwater beach but they have it set up where you can charge your room. They set up all the chairs in the morning. You find a spot, first come first serve, and they will come to you for payment. Overall great stay!

Opal Sands exceeded our expectation. Check in was swift, valet parking pleasant and off to our room in minutes. Gulf view with manatee, dolphins, pleasure boats entertaining us during our stay. This resort has a pool 3ft max. depth with lounge chairs adjacent to tiki bar and to the water below the sea wall. Just you and a waterview with the spectacular west coast sunset. Music and another bar/dining area on lower deck which lead to beach and pier. Inside dining was good, wine too with another sunset view. We extended our stay another night! Didn’t want to leave this place. Mobile check out was less impressive. When we returned home, I contacted accounting and promptly was credited $$$ to my cc. Five star resort and hoping to finalize another stay soon.*****

The place is beautiful. From the entrance to the 15th floor. The staff was really nice and knowledgeable But I wish the rooms would have a washer and drier going to the beach and the pool with kids it is really convenient to wash and dry clothes fast. Overall it is was the best decision For my family to be there Highly recommend it

Quick staycation for our anniversary

This is our first time staying at Opal Sands, but we will be back! We went just for the night to celebrate our 8th year wedding anniversary, we had a blast! It’s a beautiful resort & we had a great view of the beach and enjoyed being able to use both the amenities at Opal sand and Opal Sol. We had dinner at Drift at the Opal Sol and our waiter, Jes was amazing! Everything was delicious and his recommendations were fantastic! We were actually sad that we only came for one night and wish we had come for the weekend. Next time we will definitely stay longer.
