Safety Harbor Resort & Spa

My daughter and I were scheduled for facials, pedicures and massages. Upon arrival we were given an itinerary, facials 9:00, pedicures 11:30, lunch 12:30 and massages at 3:00 we agreed worst facials we ever had, no exfoliation, all I got was face washing and lotion and lady asking me 3 times about purchasing products after I told her 1st time not interested, very annoying, not relaxing at all for either of us. Then we had to wait 1 1/2 hours to get pedicures, to be told only my daughter would be getting one because there was no one to do mine The spa manager said she was sorry but nothing could be done about it, even though 4 ladies walked in while this was going on and taken right back, I was livid. Once my daughter was done, she said the person refused to clip her toenails saying due to HIV hazard! My daughter doesn’t have HIV!! She said she has had better pedicure at a mall. After lunch, which was mediocre, we then had to wait another 1 1/2 hours for massage. The manager said oh, you can use the pool, jacuzzi or sauna while you wait, we both have pools and jacuzzis! That’s not what we were there for. Scheduling these services that far apart was ludicrous!! We were there from 8:30 am to 4:10pm. Almost 8 hours to get a sorry facial and a short massage! My son had given us a gift certificate for $369 and I paid an additional $345, totalling $714.00 for a day of misery!! The spa manager was kind enough (lol) to refund $210! My daughter said she couldn’t wait to get out of there and neither could I. Would I recommend this establishment? Not on your life!! So overpriced, incompetent employees that don’t care about giving good services. It was a disaster of a day.

What a great place to spend a spa weekend! from the moment I arrived I was so impressed with the friendly service of Safety Harbor Resort & Spa. I participated in a 3 night 4 day wellness package and enjoyed each day filled with spa treatments, work-out sessions and great food! I would definitely recommend SHR &Spa to anyone looking for a beautiful oasis on Tampa Bay with excellent services and grounds for long walks and quaint shopping on a brick street across from the resort. The room had a tremendous view of the sunrise in the morning and comfortably large space with a great layout. It was a good value for the room, spa services and food all included.

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.
