For a quieter, more intimate experience, check out the resort's sister property, TradeWinds Sandpiper Suites.

"The only resort on the beach offering up its own fireworks display, the island-chic TradeWinds is very popular with foreign travelers and the go-to place for beach weddings."

"Deceptively severe-looking from the outside, this resort is fantastic once you explore the walkways, patios, and lily ponds."

"Situated next to the less energetic, more intimate Sirata Beach Resort, this is one of a pair of Tradewinds hotels, and it remains the nicer of the two thanks to continuing updates."

Be sure to take at least one day off to visit one of the nearby eateries for a traditional breakfast of café cubano or café con leche with a wedge of Cuban bread slathered with butter.

"Long overdue in an area with few lodging options, this hotel offers visitors to Ybor City (Tampas Latin Quarter) a comfy place to sleep."
