Opal Sands Resort in Clearwater never disappoints. The breathtaking views of the Gulf are unmatched, making every moment feel like a retreat. Even with recent challenges from Hurricane Milton, the resort maintained its exceptional standards. The staff, led by Manager Georgi, provided outstanding service, ensuring we felt welcomed and well cared for throughout our stay. I can’t wait to return and experience this beautiful destination again.

Exceptional experience post Hurricane Milton
Outstanding experience from a resort just rebounding from Hurricanes Helene and Milton. We intentionally stayed there while in town to support their business and efforts to ramp up staffing as so many in the area were impacted from the storms.
Restaurant had a reduced menu given the hurricane but exceptional service and food.
The amenities showed some damage from the recent Hurricanes but it did not negatively impact our ability to enjoy them at all.
The beaches in the community are still in signifant need of repair which are aggressively in progress, but unless the beach is the only reason you're here, it didn't impact our stay at all.

Staff was not friendly in thr bar area when asking us to move. Additionally, customer service desk made us wait significantly to get our room. In return, they gave us extra time to check out, but next day when we were on our way to get our luggage, the room was already locked and we couldnt get in. We had to go downstairs again and asked for help. The new person that was there mentioned that we were not allowed to stay longer (even though we were offered that option since we waited for almost an hour to get our room).

The property was beautiful and the 2 restaurants on site are great. The service at the restaurants and at the bar was excellent. Our room had a beautiful view. I am very picky about hotels so I have a few comments…the coffee machine in the room is for espresso only. There was no American coffee, cream or sugar. The Sandbar had some flooding due to the rain. I tried to extend the checkout an hour or two because I wasn’t feeling well, but the hotel could not accommodate that. The beach is not part of the hotel. You can’t take drinks out there. I would still recommend the hotel. You can walk to the Pier which is nice.

An okay place but expected more for the price. Paid $1,300 for 3 nights & you would think everything would be included but no theres a fee for literally everything. The staff wasnt very friendly either which was disappointing. The bartenders at the sand bar were amazing though!! We ended up having to leave early due to unforeseen circumstances. We had already paid for the room that night & i got charged almost $400 for an early departure fee which is absolutely ridiculous. I have never in my life heard of that. Will not be returning
