Jennifer United States of America

I really recommend Opal Sands, the view, the location, the food, the amenities, the staff, everything is great, we had a wonderful time! We like so much Clearwater beach when we come back we gonna stay at Opal Sands certainly.

Eduardo United States of America

This was our wedding stay. It actually wound up being a terrible storm the day we were set to get married on the beach, so we actually wound up having the ceremony in the hotel room with all our family and friends. Luckily the view from the balcony made a beautiful backdrop! The sandbar was one of our typical hangout spots (key lime margarita is awesome) and the hotel was always running so smoothly, even with room service! Overall, we can’t wait to come back

Taylor United States of America

Wonderful stay at Opal Sands! The view from our room was Amazing. The staff was excellent! Everything within walking distance. Beach right there. No need to even rent a car! The pool was wonderful and clean/warm. Already planning our next stay there!!! Even better than we excited.

Breeann United States of America

Hotel room was great, had no carpet, great view of the gulf, large shower. Onsite restaurants were very good - Sandbar had great food that was reasonably priced. Lots of restaurants & ice cream in walking distance to the resort. Nice pool area, quick access to Clearwater beach. Each floor has a pantry area with morning fruit, water & cookies in the evening free to guests. The staff (front desk, wait staff, housekeeping) were all friendly & excellent. Our flight was cancelled last minute & needed our room for extra 2 nights and they were able to accommodate (during Spring Break no less).
