Had an incredible time with my girl, Luis the Bartender was exceptional! Hard to find great service and even a smile anymore, Luis should be nominated for Best Of the Bay Bartenders, Waves is a great beach bar too, very clean, big and welcoming, you can literally walk 10 feet onto the sand, highly recommend!!

Had a family get together/reunion of sort there and the food and service was amazing.Specifically Louis, the bartender. He was so attentive, friendly, funny, and just a genuine people person. One of the best, if not THE BEST, bartender I've ever had. Hopefully he is still there when we come back to visit again.

We chose this location for its proximity to the beach, and it exceeded our expectations. The accommodations and amenities were satisfactory. We made an effort to spend as much time as possible outdoors, enjoying the stunning nearby beaches. Sloppy Joes by the hotel offered a wide variety of dining options. We were particularly impressed with the work of our resort photographer, Family Sunset Photos, who captured unforgettable memories. If you stay at any of the neighboring hotels, we highly recommend giving Family Sunset Photos a try. Without a doubt, we will return to Treasure Island.

Excellent visit to gulf side! Beach is a bit of a walk so may be harder for folks with disabilities but perfect for us as we need the walk. Excellent clean facilities with lots of friendly staff. Many extras at no cost. Beach chairs, water, towels and bicycles to use. Many food/bars close. Really enjoyed Mexican at VIP. Sloppy joes great fun as was Ricky Ts. Live music in most places. We will return for sure!

I paid extra for a ocean view, that was a waste of $$... the Ocean is so far away you can barely hear it from the balcony. Older hotel but well maintained.. had a nice kitchenette. Bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the privacy.

Great resort, would recommend getting a premium beach front room 2nd or 3rd floor. Sloppy Joes restaurant good for breakfast and dinner, right on the beach and also close to St Johns Pass. Very clean, good room service and friendly staff. Two swimming pools with towel service, coffee in the lobby and a $5 arrival gift token to use ion the restaurant. Winds bar would be my only criticism, went in there for a drink one night. No real indication of what drinks were on offer, and found a dog sitting on one of the bar seats with another one sprawled out on the floor blocking the walk through. We turned round and walked to Sloppy Joes where you will spend around $15 for a very generous Gin & Tonic. I only mention the winds bar because I hear a couple of managers discussing how to get more people into that bar as its open to the public ... couple of pointers for you then, best to stop dogs sitting at the bar and advertising your drinks better than a small unlit sign outside. Definitely get a beach front premium though, nice sized rooms with kitchen, big screen TV, bath / shower, fridge/freezer, two comfy big beds, balcony and sea view .... and free parking in what has become a world where you pay to park absolutely everywhere!

Everything was very nice in the hotel and they have accommodated us just to our taste and needs - on the 1st floor with an ocean view and literally getting out of bed with your feet in the sand!We eat at Sloppy Joe's and everything is exquisite, and the staff is friendly, very down to earth and they treat you like part of the family! We loved it❤️
My wife and I came here following a business trip to enjoy a couple days on the beach and ended up extending our getaway because of the experience. There is direct access to the beach, free bikes/umbrellas/boogie boards to use, and it's in walkable distance to numerous restaurants. More than that, the service/hospitality at the Bilmar was incredible. The room staff were available to bring whatever we needed to our room and/or answer any questions promptly. Shawna and Heather went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable and stress free. Kudos to the ownership- these ladies are one and a million.

If I could give it a zero I would do so. $290 we paid for a room and we were stuck one floor above a party with the worlds loudest dj. The room literally rattled and the lobby manager had no sympathy. I was stuck being driven from my room. Accommodations are so so. Nothing special. I can’t wait for my next visit here. Oh wait. I am NEVER coming back to this dump and I will vigorously spread the word!

The Bilmar was an excellent find! Our room was clean & very comfortable! We were upgraded to a balcony room which was great for listening to the live music and relaxing at the end of the day. The mini-fridge, stovetop, microwave with plates, cups, silverware was an extra bonus. The location is perfect for walking to so many shops & restaurants. You’re right on the beach so just a short walk and you’ll be in the water. Beach chairs, towels, & bicycles available at no additional cost (all included with your resort fee). The staff was always so kind and helpful when asking for recommendations of places to check out. We’ll definitely be back!

Lovely facilities, great room and location. Room was clean and very comfortable and had a full size fridge freezer which was great to have. Amazing sea views, lovely and relaxing to sit on the balcony and watch the sun set after a long day! Shops are just across the road, making everything so convenient. We have stayed here as a family several times and all rooms have been perfect each time. Staff were also very friendly and helpful. Special shout-out to the great cleaning staff. The penthouse was spectacular for one very special stay. Our last trip was pre Covid and we are due to stay again this month (August) I’ll post again with a new update

I can't say enough about how amazing the service was at the Bilmar! My husband had a back injury happen right before our trip and they moved our room to a oceanfront bottom level at no charge so that he could easily get to the outside. Everyone there was so accomodating but Shauna at the front desk was incredible! I highly recommend as the rooms were clean and so many great amenities. They also have fans in the rooms! We will be staying there again! If you go in tell Shauna at the front desk I said hi!! -Andrea
