Located between the Gulf of Mexico and Tampa Bay, the Sheraton Sand Key is well placed for fun beach-orientated holidays with access to spectacular wildlife and the Intracoastal Waterway. The hotel is adjacent to 95-acre Sand Key Park and Preserve, which offers glimpses of great horned owls, heron and roseate spoonbills.
Overview
Sheraton Sand Key is a solid all-rounder with a quiet beachfront location that feels a bit tucked away from the busier parts of Clearwater. It’s great if you’re after something easy, reliable, and a little less hectic — but still want access to restaurants and attractions nearby.
Poolside
There’s one main pool surrounded by palm trees and loungers, plus a hot tub and direct beach access. It’s not the most modern setup, but it’s clean, calm, and well-managed.
You’ll often see guests reading under umbrellas or strolling back and forth between pool and beach.
Food & Drink
There are a few on-site options — a casual grill, a café for light bites, and a bar with happy hour deals. The food’s nothing flashy, but it’s convenient.
Nearby restaurants are easy to reach too if you want more variety — just a short drive or taxi ride away.
Entertainment
Evenings are pretty low-key here. A bit of live music, maybe a cocktail at the bar, but nothing too lively. It suits families and couples who are happy to wind down early.
You can head into central Clearwater for more action if you fancy it.
Sports & Activities
You’ve got tennis courts, a fitness centre, and beach volleyball. Water sports rentals are available nearby, and the beach is right there if you want long walks or morning runs.
It’s more about the setting than an action-packed schedule.
