Our 17,000 square feet of sleek indoor and outdoor event space was artistically designed with gatherings in mind. Whether you dream of getting married outside in the Florida breeze or need to strategize a large-scale executive conference, our events pros are here to ensure your experience is nothing short of unforgettable.

Back in June of 2020 we toured the Opal Sands hotel for our wedding and decided to spend the night to ensure we loved the experience for our guests. After spending the night, it was a no brainer to sign the contract. Fast forward to July 17, 2021, we were completely blown away by our wedding experience with the Opal Sands hotel and staff . Even leading up to our wedding, the team was accommodating beyond belief. Aside from the beauty of the hotel which is nestled up against the ocean and near every fun spot in town, you will be swept off your feet by the terrific service. It is not just one element of the hotel experience that is fantastic but it is every touch point. From the valet staff, housekeeping staff , check-in staff, pool staff and banquet staff….everyone is outstanding. I have never stayed at a resort where each of the departments were easy to work with and provided 5-star service. As for our wedding weekend, all the events took place at the resort (Rehearsal, Ceremony, Reception, Good-bye Breakfast) and all I can say is it was perfect. Our guest raved about the food at each event and the staff was the most accommodating. One guest said “hotel food is usually not that good, but this is different. The best food we have been served at a hotel”. I truly could go on forever about how wonderful the Opal Sands hotel and staff are. You will not regret booking your wedding there and having your guests stay there. Thank you Opal Sands for the most incredible wedding weekend. We are forever indebted to you!

Opal Sands was AMAZING!!! From the moment we met Jenna during our tour, I knew she would be great to work with. She worked with us to create a perfect package, was always there to help me answer any questions and treated us like we were the only wedding she was working with. I wanted to be by the water, but not on the beach and you cannot get better than the event lawn! It was perfect for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Jenna and her team along with my awesome vendors turned the Opal Ballroom into my dream, it was stunning. The food was so good and all our guests said they finished all of it. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and you can’t beat the fact that every room has an ocean view. 2/27/22 was the most perfect day ever. There are many hotels to get married in Clearwater Beach- but Opal Sands takes the cake and I cannot recommend them enough!

The best experience and the best day of our life. I would do absolutely nothing different. I wish I could express how easy, fun and perfect this process was because of Opal and their staff. Jenna is truly the most amazing and kind human being and made every dream I had come to life and with such ease. She was so professional but personable and became like family through the process. Every single question I had, was answered in depth so quickly. Making sure we were comfortable and so happy every step of the way, and that we didn’t have to worry about a thing! We felt like celebrities. Every vision I had, they brought to life and it made the most gorgeous day and wedding. The food was absolutely incredible. We had multiple guests call us the next day saying they can’t get over the food. The most kind and accommodating staff in general. Every single guest came up to us and said how amazing the staff was to front desk, to bell hops, to room service – everyone. Our wedding was truly a dream come true and we honestly miss the process so much! Book them! I wish we could relive our day and weekend over and over again. I PROMISE you it will be the best decision you’ll ever make.
