The Resort is the centerpiece of the quaint and serene town of Safety Harbor, Florida, which is only 15 minutes from the Tampa International Airport and Clearwater Beach.  The Resort features 189 oversized guest accommodations all with a view of the Bay.

The Safety Harbor Resort is offering the reduced rates from $119 + tax with a $6 a day resort amenity fee.

The 2,000-year-old natural mineral springs that run directly beneath the resort were first discovered by explorers seeking the Fountain of Youth. Today, we still believe in their restorative powers so much that they use this natural mineral water throughout the resort—in all three pools, in spa treatments, and of course, in their water coolers.

Recreation is taken seriously at the Safety Harbor Resort with 50,000 sq. feet of Spa facilities including a full-service salon featuring AVEDA skin care products, natural mineral spring baths, one indoor & two outdoor swimming pools, state-of-the-art exercise equipment, and seven clay Tennis courts.
