The Sirata Beach Resort Reviews

That’s what people said after coming to our wedding & it rained on our wedding day! Kasey Bussell was/is THE BEST!!!! She was SO patient, understanding, calm, responsive & just made it all go smoothly & w/o a hitch!!! Everyone said the food was AMAZING & so was the banquet staff!!! A lot of our family stayed @ the resort for a few days & enjoyed themselves. Whenever we looked at anyone they were all always smiling & you could tell they were having a great time!

The Sirata was a wonderful venue for our wedding. Melanie Reese was terrific. Our catering hostess, Jennifer was a dream. The food was absolutely fabulous and the service was impeccable. Our guests had a ball and are still raving about our event 5 days later. We couldn't have had a better experience.

We'd booked the Sirata for our September 15th wedding before learning of my husband's upcoming deployment, but Melanie, our Sirata coordinator, worked with us to move the wedding up to June 28th because of the special circumstances. She made planning our Florida wedding from Texas a breeze and recommended some great vendors. She planned out details that never would've even crossed my mind... what a big help! The Sirata staff were all so helpful and kind to work with. We were married on the breezeway deck overlooking the beach, and our reception was in the 8th floor ballroom with floor to ceiling windows on 3 sides. Everybody raved about the venue! The delicious food was worth every penny. We'd highly recommend the Sirata to anybody planning a Florida wedding! Erin & Garett

I will never be able to truly express the fabulous experience my husband and I had at The Sirata. As St. Pete Beach locals, we wanted a causal, fun beach wedding as close to home as possible. Knowing the Sirata as a gorgeous beachfront hotel, we just assumed it would be out of our price range. We were excited and surprised to see how affordable their packages were. From our first meeting with Kelli, we knew the Sirata would be the place for us. It had absolutely everything we needed. A beach side wedding (but not actually in the sand), a place to host our weekend of festivities (welcome reception, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, brunch, etc.) and an affordable place to house our number of out-of-town guests. Without exaggeration, I do not know what I would have done without Kelli and the rest of the AMAZING staff at The Sirata (Claire, Jennifer, Gail, Johnny, just to name a few). Kelli and her team made the experience tons of fun and completely stress-free. I emailed and called her no less than a thousand times and she never once made me feel like a bother. She suggested vendors, used her expertise to make suggestions, and even fielded incessant questions, emails and phone calls from my crazy family! Once our wedding weekend arrived, my new husband and I could not have felt more comfortable than if we had hosted our wedding in our own home. The staff became our friends, and accommodated our every request. People are still raving about the quality of the food and what a great time they had on the property (using the slide, hanging out at Harry’s, etc.) I can truly say our wedding weekend was PERFECTION, and we owe it all to the fantastic staff. If you are looking for a beach wedding, DO NOT look any further than the Sirata.

The Sirata Beach Resort was the perfect venue to have our wedding. All of our guests loved the hotel, and the amazing food at our reception. Our coodinator was Melanie Reese, and she was fantastic! She helped to make our wedding day wonderful! We could't have asked for a better wedding day! Thank you Melanie, the rest of the staff at The Sirata Beach Resort.

Great place!! Would recommend for anyone. Beautiful!!

The Sirata was a beautiful venue for our wedding and Melanie was our contact. She was very good to work with and was very responsive to all of my emails and tons of questions. The setting on the beach was perfect, we used the breezeway for cocktail hour (our out of state guests loved this so they still felt they were on the beach) and the Royal Palm Room, with windows on all 3 sides, made it a great space. We received many compliments on the food at cocktail hour & reception. The staff was very helpful and accomodating. The only issue we had was about linens and what was included in the price. Be sure to clarify at the beginning as I did not and we had a miscommunication.

Kelli Love was awesome! She helped make sure everything was just how I had invisioned it!!

I got married at the Sirata on St. Pete Beach in March. Everything went off without a hitch! My day was perfect and I owe it all to the amazing staff at the Sirata, especially Melanie. Melanie is the events catering manager and she is terrific. Super sweet and so fun to work with. The food was so delicious especially the h'orderves that we had for the cocktail reception, my guests are still raving about it. We had our reception of about 60 people in the royal palm ballroom...amazing views! The room was decorated so beautifully, just as I had imagined in my head. The staff that served us during the reception were also exceptional. We ended up in the lobby bar after the reception to continue the fun, the bartenders were also great. My only complaint was that I really wanted an ocean view room and they could not accommodate us with that request...kind of a bummer when you come to the ocean and you can't even see it:( Overall I would highly recommend the Sirata to any bride who is looking for a beautiful beach venue, you won't be disappointed.

Overall we had a great wedding. The Catering Sales manager and banquet manager stepped up once we gave them a big push. Seating arrangements and design of the room was the most difficult, otherwise we had a great wedding with lots of help from our Wedding Coordinator Jacki Hessel, Go For Brides. She pulled everything together beautifully!
