Easy parking, the property is old world charm, the staff super friendly and clean. Our room was spacoius. Bed was not comfortable, the springs might of been bad. Shower felt like you leaning forward in it. Due to it being old the foundation is floors are uneven. The breakfast, the bacon and omelet not that great. Oatmeal and toppings were good. Fruit was also good. They had juice and coffee that were good. The outside grounds are kept up really nice. We were given complimentary water and oat bars which was really nice. I would stay again of course in a different bed.

We had a lovely stay at Crystal Bay. The room was spacious, and the and the architecture was so interesting. The staff were incredible and helped us with anything we asked. We brought our young child with for his first trip to the beach and they even had beach chairs and towels to send us with. Parking was ample and easy to access. My only complaint was that housekeeping didn’t come in (even when the placard on the door was placed asking for service) except for one time during our stay, but I’m sure they would have if we would have asked the front staff directly. The location was easy to find and conveniently located between freeway access to attractions and the beaches on the coast (about a 4 minute drive to many beaches). Thank you to everyone at Crystal Bay for ensuring we had a great vacation to Saint Petersburg!

Overall the property had lots of character and history but the floors were slanted and you felt off kilter. The bed also seemed slanted because of the floors.
