The Luce, St. Pete Beach, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

Unfortunately we didn’t have the best weather, but the nice courtyard and ambiance made up for it. We had nice breakfasts and dinners and the staff was very nice and accommodating.

A special shoutout to Steve, one of the bartenders, who was fantastic! He was friendly, attentive, and made every visit to the bar so much fun. We also had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, who was incredibly kind and welcoming. You can really tell that hospitality is a priority here. The hotel has been newly renovated, and it shows. Everything is beautiful, modern, and thoughtfully designed. From the stylish lobby to the gorgeous rooms, every space feels fresh and inviting. I especially loved the spacious bathroom with the large vanity—it made getting ready so easy. The pool area is beautiful, and being right on the water makes the location even better. The restaurant and bar served delicious food and drinks, and we loved the sunset socials—they were such a fun way to unwind and meet other guests. Whether you’re traveling with family, friends, or as a couple, this hotel has something for everyone. It’s kid-friendly, relaxing, and has such a fun, welcoming atmosphere. We truly felt at home during our stay and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

Beautiful beautiful beautiful!

This stunning property offers seamless access to both the beach and the pool, making relaxation effortless. The entire team—from the beach staff to the bartenders and servers—is incredibly attentive, engaging, and always ready to help with a smile. We thoroughly enjoyed the spectacular food and drinks at Sundrop! Additionally, the newly renovated rooms are beautifully modern, sleek, and comfortable. St. Pete Beach is truly one of a kind, and this resort made our stay an absolute blast!

The rooms were spotless, spacious, breakfast was always a new welcomed surprise. The beach is amazing! White sands and the loungers were spaced apart nicely. Would definitely be coming back

Great location. Food was good. Excellent view Room was bad, very outdated. Bathroom door wouldn’t close. Only 1 lamp and 1 overhead light. A/C unit vent was off the 1st night blowing directly on the bed. No sleep. Soap dispenser was terrible.

It was a great location! Close to walk to great restaurants, and just steps to the beach. Nice atmosphere! We don't have any complaints!

Staff was courtesy, happy, and helpful!

Love the location! It is our favorite place to stay when visiting St Pete Beach!!!

location, beach, pool

Great location on beach in walking distance for some good food and drinks.

Ac did not work properly

Quality vs price

That it is close to the beach and restaurants. Early check-in was an issue even though that was the main reason I booked the hotel. No chairs by the pool because it was all rented out and that is hilarious since they rented to non-guests. I would figure guests would take priority.

They had a lot of room shut down for renovations and wasn’t to happy with the location of my room

Our stay was cut short by hurricane Helene. The front desk found us reservations quickly. And got us a ride to hotel. We would come back..on our next Anniversary trip. Two nights was not enough. We wanted a beach Anniversary and were sent to the city. Which we didn't like at all. Sure it was safe just not what we wanted. Not your fault at all! I would recommend this hotel for anyone who wants the beach..and beautiful pool. Thanks again

When I arrived to check in in it was closed No email or any attempt to let me know before I arrived to check in that the hotel was actually closed.. I have left two messages for them to refund the money that I had payed in advance but so far (one week later) no reply…..

Rooms were being renovated of which we didn't know about they should have offered a discount. Had to evacuate 2 nights early due to hurricane Helene 9/25 and waiting on our 2 night refund.

I liked how close it was to the beach. I liked the pool. I liked the chess and checkers tables. I also liked the Stamps restaurant and the guy making omelettes. The mattress needed flipped or replaced. It had an indent on the side I was sleeping on. The bathroom door didn’t shut. There weren’t any decorations in my room.

Convenient location in a safe area. Our room was fine, though I supposed it’s on schedule to be renovated when the get done with the rooms on the other half of the hotel. It’s was clean and comfortable. The grounds are very nice! The $45 resort fee. We used their beach towels and that’s it. The pool should be part of the deal anyway, as should Wi-Fi. The beach chairs can’t be moved, so it’s a good thing we brought our own. We also brought our own awning which had to be set up beyond the boundaries of the property, which is fine. If you wanted an umbrella over your “free” loungers, it was $20. Why not give guests the OPTION to buy the beach towel/lounger/umbrella package for the $45 resort fee? Basically, we paid $45 a day for 2 beach towels.
