    Good Venue for an Event, Great Accessible Restroom

    The Sheraton hosted the Suncoast Jazz Festival 2024. The hotel was very organized, with accurate directions for finding our venue. The entrance to the hotel from the main road is blocked by cones in 2 of 3 entries, expected hurricane damage. But hard to find entrance. Parking is easy to do in front lot. The pool is closed but shows a great waterfront view, night and day. Love the wheel chair lift. Our group enjoyed dining options of upscale sit down Rusty's Bistro or Mainstay Tavern. I selected nachos at Mainstay Tavern. Service was fairly quick considering the large Friday night crowd, but they arrived BURNT. The rest of ingredients were good. The conference room for the swing dance event was spacious with adequate seating to facilitate just watching and for dancing too. The floor is great wood parquet dance floor arranged in 24 x 24 inch squares. Several of the squares loosened, a possible trip hazard. Engineers tried t fix this but part of the floor had to be closed. The acoustics is room is great for live bands and DJs. The gift shop is open 24/7 for coffee, and all kinds of memorabilia, books, sweet snacks. ACCESSIBILITY: Front hotels door are easy to open. Central lobby restrooms are awesome for wheel chair accessibility, with touch pad door opening, hands free operation, wheel chair stall with 5ft x5ft area for turning, and low sinks for hand washing. Pool has a great wheel chair lift. Mainstay Tavern has wheelchair access order and pick up station for food. Very crowded with event participants and allows no wheelchair access Rusty's Bistro is all wheel chair access with restrooms in central lobby, very close. Signage is fair, with small letters on some signs, and wall signage with blue letters on pale walls, fairly readable.

    New rooms at the Sheraton

    The Sheraton Sand Key is a hidden gem so to speak. Across the jetty is the new JW Marriott Clearwater, though it has its bells and whistles, I thought this property is an amazing alternative. Though the property sits back off the beach, it does sit in the gulf directly with water access. The rooms just went through a complete renovation and came out. Though the bathrooms are small the new shower really opens it up to maximize space. The housekeeping was nice as the room was clean and did not feel sandy and grimy which is sometimes found at waterfront beach resorts. The breakfast in the restaurant was a let down.

    A quaint and special restaurant.

    My husband and I ate at Rusty's. It's one of our places we go to for a special occasion. The food was excellent as was our server Walter. It's a little pricy but you get your money's worth. We actually had to split our salad and entree; that never happens. They also gave me a dessert of my choice for my birthday. Will we go back? Yes!! We have one request: that you bring back the prime rib buffet and Reuban on keys. Those were the precovid days.

    Wonderful trip - Beware of noise

    I recently stayed at this hotel and it boasted wonderful amenities and an incredibly kind staff, making for a pleasant experience overall. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything from a pool side bar to clean and spacious rooms. However, I was disappointed by the noise levels; thin walls and loud parties made it difficult to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep throughout my entire stay. While the hospitality was commendable, the noise issue detracted from an otherwise lovely stay.
