Magnuson Hotel Marina Cove

So GOOD!! Nice place, 2 pools, one heated. Little beach. Clean. Nice. Relaxing.

Nice property right on the water. Too bad Mother Nature wasn't cooperating as we would've liked to use the little private beach on the property. We also missed out on using the pool and jacuzzi, such a bummer. We faced the water and had a balcony, which was nice. We loved watching the birds flying down into the water to catch fish. The location was convenient to St. Pete Beach, eateries, and a grocery store. I would stay again and maybe next time we would be able to take advantage of all the amenities.

This property was nothing like the pictures. The room was not clean, the amenities could be beautiful but were run down.

The stay was great. Just what we needed for a college tour at Eckerd. People were friendly and helped us get around with maps. Fantastic customer service. The restaurant was a little disappointing but good enough.

This resort was perfect for what we were looking to do... which was NOTHING! We lounged by the beautiful heated pool, played shuffleboard every day, threw frisbee on the little sandy beach, and enjoyed every second! There are no restaurants in walking distance and the grocery is an uber worthy ride, but once we got settled, it was fabulous😊

We were really disappointed. It was quite expensive for what you get. It says it is a 4 star resort, but it is nothing more than a waterfront motel 6... I saw a number of good reviews, but I wonder now if those are paid reviews. Pros- In a quiet somewhat hidden away area. Nice grounds. Beach was decent. Pillows were comfortable Cons- Toilet didn't work - staff could not fix. They said they MIGHT be able to move us to a new room just got in after a long flight and drive and wasn't sure any other room would be any better... So I just fixed it myself. Furniture was old and rickety. Room overall was old and in rough shape. Sink wasn't secure in the counter and moved when you turned on the water. Same for the shower faucet. All the light switch and outlet covers and the tissue holder were old and very yellowed. Dirty. Room was not very clean. It appeared someone vomited on the side of the night stand, the light switches were filthy, lots of hair in the one bed, overall just not clean and kind of gross. Expensive: For what you get here it is really pricey. Almost $200 per night for what is basically a motel 6 with a view and decent grounds. The grounds were nice but not that great for the price. When I complained to the front desk the supervisor wouldn't even come out and talk to me, rather they just had the front desk lady tell me sorry nothing we can do because you booked on Hotels.com. No continental breakfast Final thoughts: Next time we will stay elsewhere.

I was just there for one night. It was clean , comfortable and friendly.

We’ve stayed several times and always loved it. This time they put us in a section of the hotel that looked as if it was some run down motel. Beds were stained, room was dirty, chain on the door for added security was broke. Very disappointed we paid $220 for one night. Should have been more like $50 a night doe what they gave us.

We had flown down for a ballgame and was looking for something on the Bay with a pool an bar. It was what we was looking for except for the rooms. They were very outdated. They need to be painted, cleaned and remodeled. I would not stay there again unless they did the above. They smelled of mold, the chain for the door lock did not even reach the door, one of the phones did not work when tried using it to call the front desk. Just needs to TLC. Great location.

Need updated. Better cleaning. Offer free coffee.
