Tradewinds Island Grand Resort on St. Pete Beach

Last week we were invited to spend the day at the beautiful TradeWinds Island Grand Resort on St. Pete Beach.  We were excited to wind down summer break with a relaxing family beach day at this fun-filled resort!  From the sandy beach and pools to the food and activities the TradeWinds Resorts can offer everyone in your family a great beach vacation.

It was impossible to experience every attraction this resort has on its property in just one day.  TradeWinds Island Grand Resort is the type of family vacation spot where you could easily stay for an entire week without having to leave the resort, and that means lots of relaxation time for mom and dad!

There are countless reasons to bring your family to TradeWinds Island Grand Resort for your next beach vacation on St. Pete Beach and these are my family’s top 6!

5 Reasons to Visit Tradewinds Resorts

The Floating Water Park on St. Pete Beach

TradeWinds’ Floating Water Park is over 15,000 square feet of fun that is located just off the shore of the beach directly in front of the Island Grand Resort. This floating water park has inflatable slides, floating trampolines, ocean loungers, climbing structures and balance beams, perfect for making memories and splashing around warm waters of St. Pete Beach. 

The High Tide Slide on St. Pete Beach

Located right on the beach, the High Tide Inflatable Water Slide is 3 stories high and over 200 feet long!  This thrilling ride is the perfect way to get your adrenaline pumping and kick off your family vacation.

Fun TradeWinds Activities for all ages

The fun at TradeWinds Resorts doesn’t stop at the floating water park and ginormous waterslide.  With both the Island Grand Resort and Guy Harvey Outpost only steps from each other, the fun never stops.  Relax on a hammock as the kids get some mechanical surfing in at Guy Harvey Outpost, and be sure to stop by for some s’mores at night.  Then jump for joy on the trampolines, take a relaxing paddle boat ride, or hang by one of the pools at Island Grand Resort.  Also, make sure you stop and take a ride on Bucky on your way down to the ocean!  This mechanical hammerhead is a blast to ride, so jump on and see who can stay on the longest.  

Family Fun on St. Pete Beach

If your looking for relaxation or adventure while on your family’s beach vacation, Tradewinds Resort has you covered.  With dining services offered directly to the hooded cabanas and floating water cabanas, there is plenty of places to lay back and enjoy the beautiful gulf coast view.  However, if you’re looking to for something more adventurous, why not give paddleboarding, snorkeling, kayaking or parasailing a try?  Staying at a Tradewinds Resort on St. Pete Beach gives you the ultimate beach experience at every turn.
