Stay at a Treasure Island resort on your Florida beach vacation to experience luxury at a reasonable price.






Stay at a Treasure Island resort for a luxury experience on the widest white-sand Florida beach.

If you plan on visiting Florida's Suncoast barrier islands, think about staying in one of the resort hotels here.

Located on the warm Gulf of Mexico, Treasure Island is one of the top Florida beach vacation destinations in America.

People come from all over to visit the super-wide white sand beaches and never ending Florida sunshine.

You came to this page because you are a lot more conscious of the amenities provided by a resort as opposed to the general Florida beach motel. You are looking for better service, upgraded sleeping comfort, more quiet, and tighter security.

If you plan on visiting the Florida Gulf Beaches for an extended time, a Treasure Island resort offers exceptional amenities and are the best luxury lodging located directly on the beaches.

The other great thing about a resort here is it's closeness to the party-surf town of St. Pete Beach and the Old Florida atmosphere of Pass-A-Grille Beach.

It would be hard to recommend only one Treasure Island resort. There are actually two I like, but for different reasons. They are the Bilmar Beach Resort and the Thunderbird Beach Resort.


Prepare before you contact

If you really desire to stay in a Treasure Island resort, spend some time thinking of specific activities you want to do there, the services available, and the costs associated with each.

Get a large legal pad and write down the 10 most important things you desire. Is a fitness room important to you or do you want to drive to a local gym? Is a massage available? Is there a buffet on Sundays? What are the specifics of security, both in your room and the grounds/parking lot? How close is shopping? How bad is traffic on Gulf Blvd during the time you want to stay there?

These are just a few of the questions the staff at a quality resort should be able to answer.


One final thought...

There is no good reason for you to pay more than is needed for a quality stay. Ask about weekly specials, ask about seasonal specials, ask what is the lowest rate the resort could give you so they don't lose you as a repeat customer.

Here is something to keep in mind, the tourist economy in Treasure Island FL is hurting just like in other key vacation areas. When you are discussing rates or amenities with resort personnel, the one word you want to keep imprinted is...Negotiate

Congress is not giving bailout money to Florida beach resorts. They have a bottomline to meet, just like any other business. If you do not ask about negotiating a lower price, they are not going to volunteer any information.
