COCONUT COVE ALL-SUITE HOTEL, Clearwater Beach

The hotel sits in a quieter section of Clearwater Beach Island, yet it is surrounded by dining options such as Speggtacular, Sands Beach Bar & Grill, Evy's Terrace Bar & Bistro, Smoke & Barrel, Subway, and Pan Filo's - all within a 5-minute walk (0.5 km). Access to the beach requires crossing the street and walking one block to a semi-private alcove shared with nearby hotels. The public beach and Pier 60 are about 1 km away, a pleasant 15-minute stroll. A free tip-based taxi service operates in the area, providing an easy way to get around without a car. For groceries, a Publix supermarket is about 2 km away. The location offers a balance of convenience and tranquility.

Room configurations include king suites and suites with two queen beds plus a pull-out sofa in the living area, accommodating up to six guests. Each suite has a full kitchen with a stove, dishwasher, full-size refrigerator, and basic cookware and dishes - though some guests noted that cookware may be limited and additional items may be needed. The living area features a sitting area, dining table (some suites have a bar with stools rather than a full table), and a flat-screen TV. Bedrooms provide comfortable beds with firm foam pillows; some rooms have newer laminate flooring while others have older carpet. Bathrooms are spacious with good water pressure and a bathtub. Private balconies overlook either the pool or the parking lot. Noise can be an issue due to thin walls and proximity to the street; rooms away from the pool and entrance are quieter. Air conditioning works well. There is no elevator, so upper-floor rooms require climbing stairs.

The hotel does not have a restaurant or bar, but the fully equipped kitchen in each suite makes it easy to prepare meals. A Publix supermarket is about 2 km away for groceries. For guests who prefer to dine out, over half a dozen restaurants are within a 5-minute walk, offering a variety of cuisines including Italian, seafood, and American comfort food at places like Smoke & Barrel and Pan Filo's. The pool area features a BBQ grill available for guest use. Complimentary coffee and chilled water are available in the lobby throughout the day, and fresh cookies are served every afternoon at 3:00 PM. Note that there is no on-site dining, so plan accordingly.

The pool area is a standout feature, set in a tropical courtyard with palm trees, lush plants, and a waterfall. Loungers and straw hut umbrellas provide ample seating. However, the pool is smaller than it appears in photographs, and there is no hot tub, fitness centre, or spa. For beach access, a semi-private beach area is available across the street and down the block, but it is a small alcove; the main public beach is a further walk. The hotel provides complimentary beach towels and a selection of inflatables for guest use. A BBQ grill is available by the pool for outdoor cooking. The atmosphere is calm and family-friendly, with quiet hours enforced to ensure relaxation.

Wi-Fi is complimentary throughout the property. Parking is available for a fee in the covered lot beneath the building. The 24-hour reception can assist with local information and requests. On-site laundry facilities (washers and dryers) are available for guest use. The business centre consists of a desk in the lobby. Luggage storage can be arranged for early arrivals or late departures. Housekeeping is not provided for stays under 4 nights, but towel exchanges and trash removal can be arranged daily upon request. The property is not ADA compliant; there is no elevator and stairs are required to reach all rooms. A resort fee applies to each stay and covers amenities such as water, coffee, and pool towels. The on-site BBQ grill is available for guest use.
