Safety Harbor Resort & Spa

I went with a long time friend from college on a girl’s trip for a week. We loved it. Fitness programs, spa services and plenty of pampering.

We’ve just had a 2 night stay at this hotel. We were in Room 232 which was on the ground floor in the Athena wing. Spacious room with comfortable bed. TV, fridge, coffee machine. Bathroom with shower over the bath. We didn’t eat in the hotel so can’t comment on the food. We did use the pool and soa area which were good. It’s a big sprawling resort with obviously many additions over the years. It’s fairly old and a bit dated but we enjoyed our stay. Safety Harbor is a lovely little town. We would definitely recommend.

Safety Harbor Resort and Spa is a favorite of ours and we have stayed there many times. The location is fantastic as you are just steps away from the town's main street. The hotel atmosphere is very "Old World Charm" from the moment you walk into the lobby. We have always found the staff to be friendly and accommodating. This trip was made outstanding by Jesse who was the bartender in the Santorini Lounge on a recent Saturday night. The Lounge was extremely full and busy. She was tending bar alone. She handed it beautifully remaining calm and professional as guests shouted drink orders. Towards the end of the evening we arrived with a group of 12 which included three celebrities. Jesse went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. After her extremely hectic night she cared enough to help make our evening celebratory. She was extremely gracious. She was assisted by a gentleman who also went above and beyond. Apologies for not knowing his name. These two employees are an outstanding asset to Safety Harbor Resort and Spa.

The spa is old, both good and bad. The place is a maze due to all the additions over time. The spa is confusing to get to and use, but it is clean and has the usual amenities. The massages my husband I had were wonderful. The room was comfortable and clean, although it showed its age.

My wife and I stayed here for three nights toward the end of January 2026. We were traveling on vacation with two other couples. The main event was a friends wedding reception at the resort (had a great time). The thing I was not aware of is that the facility is very Greek - all the paintings, architecture, floors, columns, ceilings, everything is greek. That's OK we just weren't aware of it and it is a little unusual to see so much Greek in a hotel. It turns out the surrounding area has a lot of Greek also. The hotel is huge. It was clean and OK. The town right next door is great. It's a really nice area to explore.
