Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Set on 40 tropical, beachfront acres, this stunning resort is St. Pete's largest, boasting nine pools, award-winning restaurants and bars, a floating water park, and over 700 luxurious guest rooms and villas. It's a paradise for guests and a planning dream for you, thanks to generous on-site support, decadent menus customized to your tastes, and a range of event spaces to suit every style.
- Say "I do" with your toes in the sugar-white sand as sunlight glints off the peaceful waters of the Gulf, or host a more formal affair on a sweeping waterfront lawn, framed by soaring palms and manicured greenery. Continue the party outdoors in the Garden Courtyard, or move inside to one of the gracious, flexible ballrooms or the dramatic Pavilion Tent, where you'll dance the night away beneath softly draped ceilings.
- Embrace the ease and luxury of a true destination experience, extending the joy to a full weekend: from a laid-back welcome dinner around the fire pit on Pirate Island, to lounging in a private cabana or jet-skiing the Gulf, to a sun-kissed farewell brunch on Rumfish Lawn. Even your furry friends will love their time here—there's a Pet Play Zone and a special dog walk along the pristine waterway!
