Opal Sands Resort

Amazing 3 stays prior I love this hotel/resort wonderful experiences up until my last visit. I have recommended my friends & clients to book rooms at Opal Sands. However, my last stay started of fine "Alex and Alex" were wonderful with assisting me. I visited my room for about 5 minutes, walked out to the balcony and decided to view some real estate. I came back spent time by the pool bar and then the indoor bar, met up with my friends who stayed at the resort upon my suggestion. Ate dinner and checked out the strip. Upon returning to the room at around 2:00 am I noticed that the doors were left open which stops the a/c and the smell of animal was so strong in the room. I have allergies and ended up having a miserable 2 hours of unrest, tossed & turned and the bed seemed super soft unlike my previous stays. I decided to go out on the balcony so I could breathe better and someone was smoking and it was so strong I had to go back inside. I sat on the couch until 5:30 am and asked my husband to leave immediately. I had a awful headache for 3 days in addition something bit me on my back during my short stay. I contacted the hotel and spoke with "Arlind" who told me that he checked the room and nothing was wrong and that this room it has been booked with several other people prior to my stay. I asked Arlind to comp a single night and he refused and would not provide me with the corporate phone number #$297wasteofmoney. NO one was at the desk to help after hours!

Great place to stay for the honeymoon, walking up and down the beaches I would guess it's the nicest resort there. The staff was very informative and Mike (assisted us with baggage) was very nice and gave us great info about the resort and things we could do in the area. Top class services, staff, and rooms. If you are reading this review just book the room at the Opal, you will NOT be dissapointed. A++++ we will be back.

Opal Sands Resort is a beautiful resort with a super friendly and helpful staff. Very clean comfortable rooms with gorgeous views of the Gulf. The clean and well maintained pool area, located overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, is well staffed who provide excellent service. Love this place!! We can’t wait to return!!

Every employee was incredible and made our stay. However there were a few issues with the condition of our room. Our bathroom door didn’t close, maintenance didn’t show up but a security guard was nice enough to try and fix it. We checked in late and were only staying one night. We were not offered a different room or anything to fix it other than the security officer going above and beyond trying to fix the door for us.

First night we discovered a stain on the bed sheets that went all the way to the mattress. We called the front desk and they provided clean sheets however did not put them on. For a 5 star resort we expected expedite service however we were not provided new sheets until 45 minutes after we called down. Overall, the resort and staff were excellent. Location of the resort was far away to allow for quietness and perfect relaxation. Pool is small but offered great views of the Gulf. Just be sure to get down early to snag a front row lounge chair. The resort restaurant was great. We have multiple breakfast and dinners and even last night cocktails. Breakfast was as ok, but dinner was as nice (and a bit pricey). The night cocktails are great as well. Hopefully you have JJ as your bartender. Overall the resort was awesome. If we go back down, we will stay at the Opal Resort no more question. The proximity to the beach was fantastic and the views from both the room and pool were spectacular. No doubt, this is the best place to stay in Clearwater Beach.
