This historic pink landmark, built in 1925, provides a refined atmosphere with a focus on service and relaxation. Families can enjoy the heated outdoor pool and varied dining options, including a ’20s-style eatery. Accommodations range from refined rooms to suites with separate living areas and pull-out sofas, providing space for families. The resort is positioned across from the harbor, less than a mile from both the St. Petersburg Pier and The Dali Museum, offering cultural and recreational opportunities nearby. While there are no dedicated kids' clubs, the general kid-friendly designation and various activities like golf and tennis appeal to active families. This resort suits families seeking a sophisticated city-resort experience with convenient access to downtown St. Petersburg's attractions.
