    Happy to return to Sheraton Sand Key

    We’ve been to the Clearwater Beach area about 8 times, and stayed at the Sheraton Sand Key Resort 6 or 7 times. It’s one of our favs! Excellent location, amenities, staff…everything. They did major renovations the year before, and just keep getting better. We arrived just after Hurricane Debby, and several weeks before Helene and Milton. Minimal impact from Debby and thankful that the hotel recovered from Helene and Milton. We already have reservations for this summer, and very much looking forward to our upcoming vacation!

    Amazing dinner experience!

    Adrian really made our dinner as special as it was! He was so helpful in suggesting dishes to order and gave us recommendations on where to walk to outside of the hotel for after dinner entertainment. Highly recommend Mainstay Tavern while Adrian is working!
