TradeWinds Island Grand Resort

The TradeWinds Island Grand Resort is one of two TradeWinds Island Resorts on St. Pete Beach on Florida's Gulf Coast. (The other resort is Sandpiper Hotel and Suites.)

The TradeWinds Island Grand is a AAA four-diamond resort with many family-friendly features, including suites with kitchen facilities.

Families like the giant inflatable slide on the white-sand beach, and the beach cabanas and water-trikes.

The resort has five pools, including a kids pool that's near the Kids' Club.

And our favorite feature at the TradeWinds: a meandering river you can navigate by paddleboat.
