Sirata Beach Resort

Sirata Beach Resort brings a laid-back Gulf vibe to St. Pete Beach while still giving planners real tools for meetings, retreats, and multi-night room blocks. With 382 rooms and suites along a wide stretch of sand, the resort works for teams that want a beachfront feel without losing schedule discipline. Lounges spill into open-air patios, two pools anchor casual meetups, and the shoreline turns sunsets into built-in backdrops for welcome hours, brand reveals, or milestone celebrations. On property you will find three signature outlets that help with pacing throughout the day: Rum Runners Bar & Grille at the sand, Harry’s Beach Bar for come-as-you-are gatherings, and Compass Grille for seated group meals with coastal menus.

Guest rooms lean bright and practical, many with balconies or patios. A number of categories include kitchenettes, which helps crews, wedding parties, and families control breakfast timing and late-night snacks. Wi-Fi is strong, work surfaces are usable for laptop time, and blackout drapery and quiet HVAC make early starts less painful. Suites add living areas that double as hospitality or quick huddle zones. For longer itineraries, coin or valet laundry, beach towel service, and on-site grab-and-go keep routines predictable.

Event flow benefits from indoor and outdoor choice. Ballrooms handle keynotes and awards with clean sightlines. Beachfront pavilions and terraces bring sea breeze energy to receptions without overbuilding sets. Courtyard pockets fit registration tables, sponsor displays, and coffee breaks while keeping corridors clear. Production teams can load in through dedicated routes so staging stays out of guest view. If the forecast shifts, the property is used to flipping from terrace to ballroom with a weather-aware plan that preserves your run of show.
