❤️ What Our Brides Say ❤️

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue!

We had the best day of our lives and Safety Harbor Resort & Spa made it easy and fun. We worked primarily with Maria who is one of the most amazing people we have ever met! The vibe at the resort was so amazing and it was so fun to have everyone together to go to the pool, bars and around downtown Safety Harbor. We got so lucky with beautiful weather and had one of the most gorgeous outdoor ceremonies I have ever seen. One of our favorite things about this place was also how amazing the food was too! One of our top goals for a wedding venue was good food and this place did not disappoint. My husband and I felt so well taken care of here and I am so grateful this is where we had our wedding. We love going back here now too for special dates because we just fell in love with the place so much. If you're remotely debating it, book your event here! - Kelsey, the Knot

Excellent Wedding Coordination

We had an awesome wedding & reception experience at the resort as usual. We were married outdoors at tranquility garden, which was decorated beautifully with flowers & roman arch. Maria and her staff were great stepping in when the previous wedding coordinator moved on, she made us feel like family. It's been 11 days and our guests are still talking about the food that was served at our reception and of course the entire resort and the town of Safety Harbor. We have stayed there numerous times and our expectations are met each time. We highly recommend this resort, Maria, and her team. - Bill & Judy, Wedding Wire

This place is the best!!!

My wife and I hosted our wedding reception here and it was nothing short of incredible! The resort is such a charming gem located in the heart of Safety Harbor. We had over a hundred guests travel from all across the world to stay here and celebrate with us. They all greatly enjoyed the resort, accommodations, service, amenities, and the surrounding area. The service and catering they provide is top notch as well. The food and drinks were plentiful and all delicious!
We do also have to give a special shout out to their coordinator, Maria Touloumis. She truly is a godsend! She is the most professional, friendly, funny and communicative coordinator ever. She tirelessly handled everything from the planning, catering, event space, vendors, providing recommendations, day-of coordinating, and more! Her and her staff are truly the best at what they do - providing the best and most seamless service ever. One of the best parts is we feel like the resort provides incredible bang-for-your-buck value for your wedding/event. If we could do it all over again, we would pick Safety Harbor Resort and Spa ten times out of ten. Huge thank you once again to Maria and everyone else here for making our weekend so magical! - Sean, Wedding Wire 

Everyone loved this place!

Amazing experience with numerous people saying it was "the best wedding reception" they'd ever been to. I was the father of the bride and, from the second we inquired until the very end, this was clearly a great choice. Jenna the event coordinator is amazing and kept things moving (we didn't use a wedding coordinator). We had many "snobby" guests that like to complain, but we heard only great things about (a) the hotel itself, which is a kitschy, old Florida place that out-of-town guests found really fun to stay at, (b) the happy hour in the great hall (very classy and they have a grand piano...we hired a pianist), (c) the reception hall (we used the big one and it was beautiful and really doesn't need much decorating; great acoustics) (d) the food (we did buffet style and it was definitely better than your average "wedding food"), (e) the step-out-for-a-minute spaces if the music is too loud or whatever (there is a nice bar right outside the banquet hall plus two giant seating areas that are super comfortable), and, finally, (f) Safety Harbor itself, as there are numerous fun bars, restaurants, and coffee shops mere feet from the spa itself. I live in the area and pretty much looked at every popular venue in Pinellas County and this was the obvious choice and we have zero regrets! - Adriane, Wedding Wire

Maria and Safety Harbor Resort & Spa for the win!

I was a guest for a wedding event at Safety Harbor Resort & Spa on March 26th 2023 where Maria Savakis Touloumis was the coordinator. She performed all the organization and execution from the ceremony to the couples send off.
She did a superb job choreographing everything so the event was absolutely first class. Safety Harbor is a delightful resort for a wedding event as I was comfortable, well fed and thoroughly enjoyed my stay on this magnificent property. I highly recommend Maria and Safety Harbor Resort & Spa if you are looking for a first class vendor team. - Ian, Wedding Wire 

The Best!

As a professional event planner I do not say this lightly, we truly could not have asked for our day to have gone any more perfectly than it did, and we owe a great deal of that to the team at Safety Harbor. We worked with Maria and she was wonderful throughout the entire process. She was attentive to all of our communications, flexible on of our more outlandish requests, and made us feel like we were her own kids she was planning a wedding ceremony for. The venue was beautiful and required very little decor be brought in to dress up the spaces we were in. The food was beyond phenomenal, even the next day our guests could not stop talking about how much they enjoyed everything on our menu. The banquet staff was extremely professional and interacted wonderfully with our guests. The team at Safety Harbor were also very easy for our vendors to work with in setting up their load-in and load-out, timing to be in our rooms, and flexibility to set up the services they were providing us. This resort has the feel of a destination wedding without the price tag that accompanies it. Our guests loved the resort and the small town Main Street feel that the area has to offer. A few even said they would be back for their own vacations because they enjoyed it so much. There are too many great things about this venue to overlook it as a top tier option when planning in this area. The resort is family owned and operated and they truly make you feel that way when hosting your wedding.- Bruce, The Knot
