Clearwater Beach There is a texture to life everywhere in this remarkable corner of the world. The fine white sand slips between your toes as you explore the beaches surrounding Marco Island. Exotic shells are delivered fresh daily by the currents of the Gulf where swimmers delight in year-round warmth and placid waves. The virtual guarantee of idyllic weather makes these waters home of boats of every description. Flats boats skitter to secret backwaters while sleek yachts fill their sails in gentle breezes. Dive boats, sightseeing launches and dinner cruises all go their separate ways in this vast expanse of bays and rivers, islands and sea.
The Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort overlooks the picturesque Gulf of Mexico and sits on 10 beautiful acres of white sandy beach. We are just a short drive from the Tampa International Airport and such activities as the Salvador Dali Museum, Florida & Clearwater Aquarium, Busch Gardens, Harborview Center, the Bluejays, Phillies and Yankees training camps and minutes from downtown Tampa, Ybor City and St. Petersburg. Whatever your festivity, relax and enjoy as we are the only hotel on Clearwater Beach that will serve you your desire of food or drink while you are unwinding on our beach. All of our guest rooms are luxuriously appointed with room amenities that include a morning newspaper, coffee maker with gourmet coffee and tea as well as up-to-the-minute technology such as in room safes, dual line telephones with speakerphone and high speed internet access (Wayport), which is complimentary for all of our HHonors guests. All rooms are non-smoking, including our public areas inside the resort. Smoking is however, permitted in designated outdoor balconies & outlets. Additional recreational facilities include beach cabanas, two beachside swimming pools, volleyball, wave runners, parasailing, and more. For children, there is the special recreation program ''Fun Factory'' custom-designed to entertain and educate. The staff will be happy to arrange activities such as snorkeling, deep sea fishing or sailing charters.
