Bluegreen at TradeWinds

Bluegreen at TradeWinds occupies a prime locations on St. Pete Beach, which has the honor of being voted the nation's #1 beach destination in TripAdvisor’s 2012 Traveler’s' Choice Awards. The resort's 20 acres of paradise houses five sparkling pools, a lazy river, a waterslide, multiple whirlpool hot tubs and tucked-away cabanas. Eleven different eateries run the gamut from breakfast cafes to classic grub to Sharktooth Tavern, where guests can count on live entertainment every night. The onsite spa provides the perfect opportunity to relax out of the sun, and a fitness room ensures you get your scheduled work out in, even on vacation.

Studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units are furnished with a contemporary style, the breezy ambiance fitting for this Gulf-side retreat. Kitchenettes include the essentials - a microwave and mini-fridge - and open living areas make "just hanging out" feel natural, and of course, ultraplush beds set the standard in comfort.

Immediate access to St. Pete Beach's 22 miles of glistening shore is of course the natural draw at Bluegreen at TradeWinds, but Long Key is full of activities and attractions to keep you busy. Water sports and activities are a given, from parasailing to paddleboarding and kayaking to jetskiing. A staggering 137 parks lie in the immediate area - perfect for enjoying Florida's natural beauty. And of course, nearby Tampa and St. Petersburg provide a wealth of activities within easy reach of the resort.
