I spent several days with my girlfriend and my stay at the hotel was especially enjoyed the beautiful sea view, quietness and comfort of the hotel. I thank all the staff for the kindness and good treatment of us as if we were family or friends of a lifetime. I personally recommend everyone to visit and have a good time... More

thank you for your review. We do hope that this review of your one night stay does not rob others of the wonderful experience of staying at Sabal Palms. As they'll note from the other reviews, we are well loved by guests who return year after year. We are a Superior Small Lodging property and have received their White Glove... More

We have been coming here for the past ten years - often twice a year and often with our daughters and their families. Joe and his staff - Ed and Judy and Eddie and Anna keep the Sabal well maintained and clean but more importantly make us feel like family. We intend to keep coming. Great location! Great service!

We have been staying at Sabal Palms virtually annually since 1995 and can heartily recommend it for a relaxing low-key holiday by the beach in St Pete. Luxury it ain't but you get what you pay for and what you get is simple basic and clean accommodation with attentive and friendly service by the lovely staff. The rooms at the... More

Great location. We particularly wanted to stay in Pass-A-Grille for reasons stated in Happy 1950 review. Unit clean. Comfortable beds. Friendly staff. Seating very uncomfortable. Husband in town for business. I had work to do and no desk or work chair. Staff provided folding table and straight chair upon request. Trying to get comfortable to watch TV in the evening... More

We thank you for staying with us and for providing your feedback regarding Unit #7. You are correct that more counter space in the bathroom would make it more comfortable and we will also address the configuration of the unit to see how we can improve the lounging access for watching television. One of the things our guests like most... More

Our first impression of our room was big dead palmetto bug on the kitchen floor.Not a good start(and there was another in the bathroom the next day).I see there are many good reviews of the Inn but it depends on the room I suppose.Unit 9 is kind of a cellar.I'm only 5-9 and my head barely cleared the ceiling.It's like...

Sabal Palms Inn along with it's sister property Coconut Inn were both recently awarded White Glove Awards for the second consecutive year in row by the Superior Small Lodging organization for Outstanding Cleanliness. As you mentioned and as anyone can see from our reviews, yours is not the typical experience nor have we had any complaints about tropical bugs, the... More

We wanted to be as close to the beach, without the silliness of tourist clutter, to relax with no pressure. Get up with no deadlines except to make time to view the sunset. Sabal Inn was the perfect place.First the community of Pass-A-Grille- it is on the tip of the St Pete Beach pennisula and it is so narrow you... More

For the past few years I've returned yearly for a blissful week at Sabal Palms Inn, meeting up with friends. Staff and other guests are friendly and accommodating, the small hotel is private and non-intrusive. I spend my day stepping back and forth to the beach across the street, right in front of the Inn, gazing, walking, swimming, generally working... More
