Safety Harbor Resort and Spa

"What a special place! We went for a respite, and we were totally recharged after our restful stay. ALL of our needs were provided! We signed up for the mini retreat. Excellent experience! Rooms were wonderful. We really enjoyed the balconies. Food was great. We had all of our meals at the Fountain Grille. Food and service were fantastic. Favorites dinner item was the Vegtable Stir Fry. Our favorite part was the spa! The amenities and therapist were exceptional! Take advantage of the beautiful atrium. We can't mention each therapist by name, but we have to shout out Mary for scheduling and planning our retreat and informative nutrition class, Shannon for the best stretch experience we have had in years, Nadra for being so kind and helpful, Denny for a fantaboulous massage and Ire for an amazing facial! We can't wait to schedule another visit! Highly recommend!"

"Just returned from a long weekend at Safety Harbor Resort and Spa. I hadn't been there in almost 30 years and was quite curious what to expect. Fortunately, Wyndham Hotels rescued this jewel and didn't let it get bulldozed into oblivion by developers. Now having said that, it is by sheer force of will that the caretakers are able to keep the place as nice as it is. Let be clear: It is not new. It has been updated, refreshed and well-maintained but it is still a place that has been around a long time. Don't be concerned about that. The town of Safety Harbor is very nice with its long main street of stores and restaurants. The walking/biking trail is a highway of people taking the time to enjoy the outdoors. Go to the bay's edge and enjoy a walk along the Mangrove trail. Ok, the other side: The place is well looked after, but it still has the design style of the past. Perhaps some style upgrades would be worthwhile. I also noticed what seemed to be some miscommunications with the staff. Restaurant servers who weren't sure who was waiting which tables, housekeeping asked do our room. The receptionist at the spa desk who took the time to recommend a different schedule of services for my wife was helpful. That was a nice thing, but spoke to a need for management to work on making sure things ran a bit smoother. No big deal but no 4+ stars for that. The hotel is a keeper. You'd enjoy it. I did, but just remember that it has been around a long time, and while maintained as best as they can considering its age, it might not compete with brand-new place for the modern feel. Personally, I would rather have this classic vibe than the cookie-cutter hotel vibe any day."

"Safety Harbor is one of my favorite little towns and we always stay at the resort. Staff is attentive, kind and always so welcoming. I had a stunning sunrise view from my room which was the perfect start to the day. Highly recommend checking out this quaint hotel for your stay."

"Went to Sunday brunch looking forward to good food and good experience. The service was terrible from the poor greeting of the manager at the beginning to the having to get someone so we could pay our bill. The waitress did not check on us the entire time we had to go refill our own drinks and the food was mediocre. Very poor experience. I can’t believe they charge you 20% for their service that was so poor. Will never go again, nor recommend anyone to spend this kind of money for such mediocre brunch"

"My wife found this resort since we needed a place to stay for a night ,but next time we come we will definitely stay for longer. It is located right in the downtown Safety Harbor area which is very charming. The grounds are beautiful and perfectly manicured. The resort itself has an elegant feel. The rooms are spacious and very clean and the furniture is all cherry wood and nicely maintained, no scratches and not cheap looking. There is ample parking and valet is only $15 a night. There are also plentiful amenities such as an indoor pool, sauna and whirlpool as well as two outdoor pools. Really enjoyed our stay."
