Camaron Cove Resort

I’ve been visiting this resort ever since I was 3 years old and it’s an awesome resort. The staff are Extremely nice, the rooms are really comfortable and good-​looking, and they have a donut day every Tuesday of the year, where they serve donuts for free. And there’s also a hot dog day which is every Wednesday year-​round. I strongly recommend this resort

We visited with my parents in their time share.
It’s a quiet location, and very clean. It might look like an older building, and the elevator might be slow, but that’s okay. The pool is clean and warm; the hot tub worked most of the time (and was quickly repaired when it didn’t), and the other people staying there were very nice as well. Granted, in our middle ages we were some of the younger people there, but we enjoy a quiet vacation. The beach was really nice and clean, and the water beyond the shore didn’t have a lot of rocks; we were able to swim in early December. However, I would recommend swim shoes, as I’m paranoid about lost fishing hooks/​lures and there were people fishing nearby. Also, check the news for ‘red tide’. I picked it up a little when I swam the first day, but it didn’t affect me much, other than dry throat, and some coughing and sneezing.
I personally wouldn’t call this a ‘resort’ by my own definition. There aren’t staff members assisting you unless you go to the office. A few days they do have special events, such as breakfast doughnuts, or a hot dog cookout. Also, make sure to bring your own CHAIRS. They had some that people had left behind, and we found only 2 on the first day that were comfortable for us; a few days later, apparently someone had taken them to his room for his own comfort, when they were supposed to be left downstairs.
There are a few shops and restaurants within walking distance (including across the street, but it wasn’t too loud). Clearwater is just a few miles away right on the beach as well. We totally enjoyed here as opposed to the hustle and bustle of Clearwater (they are building a LOT and it’s not very serene or peaceful, even if the beach is a little better).

The resort itself is a timeshare. You buy the condo, and you get to use it the same week every year. It’s great if you want to be able to have a set vacation to plan for every year, not so much if you prefer to be flexible, since you can’t exchange for another week as far as I know.
As far as amenities go, the place is fairly nice. The building is about 20 years old at least, but they do a fairly decent job of keeping it updated. All the condos have a balcony that faces toward the beach, so you can get some nice views. The condos are 2 bed, 2 bath, with a pullout sofa, so you can fit about 6 people comfortably. They do update at least one thing a year, whether it be new appliances or décor.
Downstairs, they have a pool, and a jacuzzi. Both are fairly large. The jacuzzi side also has gas grills and a tiki hut. The tiki hut is unattended, but its a good place if your family wants to do some kind of celebration. You also have beach access. The only issue is that the pool and stuff closes at 10PM on the dot, and the security guard does run you upstairs if you are out.
Overall, it’s a great place if you want a quiet family vacation.
