The hotel

Laid-back vibes? Check. Powdery-white sands? Check. Fun for all the family? Check. Set on the beachfront, the RumFish Beach Resort is an epic place to enjoy St Pete’s beauty, recharge your batteries, and have the time of your life. You’ll love the cool beach lounge, complete with VIP cabanas, live entertainment, and a fire pit (get your s’mores at the ready!). There’s a whole load of fun and games at the sister hotel too, so you’ll be spoilt for choice with how to spend your days and evenings. And talking of evenings, head to one of the restaurants or bars and watch the sun go down over the rippling ocean.

Raegan was extremely nice and very professional, she continued to check on us throughout the day! We had two drinks and they were very delicious. I would recommend to my family and friends and even for a business trip. The overall trip has been absolutely amazing.

Hope was a great server at the grill! We will definitely be coming back to eat and stay and the food was great! She was polite and was very attentive. Quick service and accommodated all of our needs. We had no issues and were impressed with the food and service.
