My stay at Holiday Inn & Suites Clearwater Beach S-Harbourside was a mix of positives and negatives. The room had great views, and I enjoyed the atmosphere, but it could really use some updates, and I encountered issues during my visit. While the dining options were great, with excellent meals at Jimmy Guanas, the service could have been more attentive, especially during breakfast. Overall, there were definitely highlights, but some issues put a damper on the experience. 🌊

I had a mix of experiences during my stay at Holiday Inn & Suites Clearwater Beach S-Harbourside. The location was excellent, just a short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants. However, the room was a bit dated and could really use some TLC, which brought down my overall impression. The service was friendly but had its hiccups, especially at the tiki bar where wait times could be frustrating. Overall, it's a decent spot but I'd consider my options for future trips.

Overall, my stay at the Holiday Inn & Suites Clearwater Beach S-Harbourside was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from the beach and a variety of restaurants, which I really appreciated. However, the room had a musty smell, and it felt like the hotel needed some serious renovations. The dining experience was underwhelming, but the pool area was enjoyable, albeit a bit noisy at times. I'd rate it a 6 because of the prime location, but the room quality could really use improvement.
