How can there be such a discrepancy between reviews ? Some people love it and others hate it giving polarized reasons.. Those giving negative reasons would have problems in Heaven. This is a wonderful place to stay. The office staff is nothing short of excellent. Book through the offfice and you will have a good experience. REMEMBER not all units... More

This is a perfectly fine property. We stayed for 2 weeks in May. The unit (#105) was clean, bright & had everything we needed. Grounds, pool were clean & inviting, & never too crowded - which is a PLUS! Good location - close to everything. In talking to some of the owners, I think some of the older,negative reviews were...

Do not expect to rest or relax! The entire building sits within feet of a major bridge with very loud and constant traffic 24x7! We were very disappointed to have booked this for 5 days anticipating sitting out on the balcony enjoying our breakfast coffee and night cap. But the traffic was so loud it actually hurt our ears so... More

I recently stayed at Boca Ciega on 2/25 and 2/26 with my wife and 6 month old while visiting relatives in Tampa. Our reservation # was 121036 and is included as a scanned image. Upon check in our room was musty, we were given one tiny bar of soap for 2 days, and the toilet would not flush properly. Check... More

This guest states that check in is 5pm. This is incorrect and is actually between 3-5pm. This guest asked for a much later check in than what they state in this review. This guest went to the front desk demanding a late check out and was informed at the time he asked for a late check out that it would... More

This was one of the few places we could find that allowed pets. They have a nice grassy area for walking your dog and a place to dispose of the leavings. Our one bed-room condo was clean and well equipped. Having a full kitchen was a real plus. The only caution I would have is that the units on the... More

We stayed in Unit 110 and were thrilled with everything--- location, view , wildlife, and especially the on site office staff. I just can't understand the negative comments. We can't wait to go back. Everything you want is 5 to 10 min drive or less from the complex. More

This is the third year we have stayed here for the month of February. I don't understand some of the comments. There is a staffed office on site and I have always found them to be completely cooperative. There is plenty of free parking with a nice restaurant just across the parking lot. The site has been clean all three... More

I stayed at this property several times in past years and it has steadily gone downhill. The problem is with the Property Owners Assoc. heads who work so hard at screwing the owners who are behind in their payments that they are obnoxious in how they treat all "guests". Look at the comments and see the attempt to justify negative... More

More than 9 months have passed since this couple were a guests at Boca Ciega and there have been a number of changes made. First, a new management company has taken charge of the daily operations of the condominium hotel.......from grounds maintenance to rental office function. Second, the troublesome owner....really only one but with multiple units.....has been forced out by... More
