For the money, the Dolphin is worth it. You’re on the beachside of Gulf Dr. and you can walk to many places. There’s plenty of cabanas in front of the hotel on a nice stretch of beach.

Even though property is a little outdated as far as rooms and hallways it is extremely clean. Beds were comfortable and had plenty of room. The view of the ocean was beautiful.

5th time staying here- I love it because it’s nothing huge or busy, and has easy access to the beach. I loved staying on the first level poolside as well this year! Yes, the hotel could definitely use some updating with decor, so that is the only negative (the interior color scheme and carpet in particular).

We had an awesome view of the beach from our room. There were so many amenities from having a private beach with cabanas with no extra charge. The beach bar was great with live music and bingo. The food was excellent at the restaurant. The staff was friendly and the maids took great care of our room. Not to mention the convenience of having a Publix across the street. Dolphin Beach Resort is where we will always stay when visiting St Pete's.
