    This is by far the best tiki bar we've ever been to! Perfect location, ample seating, and the drinks are always strong and delicious. The bartenders are always very friendly as well. We're here every day that we're on the beach!

    Best beach bar! The drinks are amazing (albeit pricey, but what isn't on the beach). The food is good for smaller bites or if you know exactly what you want as the menu is smaller. The live music and seating is killer!

    Grouper tacos (not worth it)

    Drinks are good but food isn't. They hard the nerve to charge $22 for 3 crappy fish(grouper) tacos. Don't bother. My friend had the chicken sandwich and smoked fish spread all just ok.

    This is my first time to Florida and we came here for a drink and something to eat and I have to say that our waiter Josh was very good at his job very friendly and very nice. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone

    Nice lounge area!

    Can I give them 6 stars? WOW! I absolutely loved this place to the point that we had lunch there two days in a row! Located literally on the beach, you have the option of 4-tops or the most comfortable sofas you can imagine! Their drinks menu is extensive and as expected from a hotel restaurant, it is quite pricey but worth it. We tried the "Marvelous Mango" and "High Tide". Over the course of 2 days we tried: Cuban sandwich, sweet Thai chili shrimp, Florida crab cakes and fish tacos. Everything was SO GOOD! Service is spectacular! The servers were so attentive and friendly. If you are in the area you have to try this place! You will not regret it!

    Philly & potato salad

    Went to spend the day at Tradewinds resort and ate at Salty's for lunch. Nice outdoor seating right by where you can ride the little boats if you are staying there or have a day pass and has a beach view. Drinks are $11 each or get one in a souvenir cup which is 2 1/2 drinks for $21. With the cup you don't get discounts on future alcoholic beverages and just tea and soda. Food was a decent size portion and ranged from $13-$19 for an average meal. I had the Philly which was really good and upgraded my side to the potato salad which i recommend getting, otherwise it is served with chips. My wife got the fish tacos, which came with two tacos, and for an extra $2 you can upgrade to grouper.

    Great band! Bus Stop Band! Brings in big crowd!! Everyone jamming, not one person sitting. Good fun people all ages. Laid back Fun fun! I recommend!

    Best frozen drinks!!! Everything on the drinks menu looked great! Strong drinks too even though $11 for a specialty drink is too much. I love their pina coladas!!! My favorite and their Island Escape is creative and yummy! Love the view as well. Such a great place to see the sunset.

    Best beachside "Tiki Bar". The Piña Colada and Mudslide was great. They have a local blonde draft beer that is great too.

    Mango Tango Margs

    Parking sucks if you're not staying on this resort and/or walking distance to it from your own place... we luckily were able to park in a lot across the street for free but they said during summer months, they actually tow from there. The resort looks super nice, and got a little confusing to get to the restaurant, but once we made our way through the resort - it was the cutest little spot. Patio set ups and furniture around the pool deck and sand. Some of the furniture was even padded with a fire pit. It is first come, first serve. There's no host, so we had to sit at the bar for like 5 minutes before tables started to open up. The bar is small and cute and of course, in a tiki hut. There are tv screens inside the tiki hut that were playing March Madness games (amen!). There were outside lights hanging around the palm trees, setting the ambiance to a luau. We had a beautiful view of the gulf coast sunset. And it matched perfectly with my Mango Tango Margarita! That was bomb.com, & recommended by our waitress. We started with nachos - delicious & messy. I had the blackened grouper tacos, which came as 3 and I was only able to eat 1. I was so full after the nachos! Brian had the shaved steak ciabatta sandwich. He originally was skeptical of the Brie and balsamic jam, but he opened his horizons & said it was delicious ...& ate his whole plate. Yes, plate included. 4 stars only cause of logistics to get here. Enjoy!

    Wow. I expected more from a place rated 4 stars. To be…read morespecific we went to the beach bar because the restaurant wasn't open yet. The very first issue was parking. Parking is minimum $50 a day + fees. A cocktail? For an hour? Haha no. I'm being mildly disingenuous. The bar staff (and likely restaurant staff) will give you a QR code to validate all $58 of your parking. But it made me acutely miss a time when you could just park and patronize an establishment. Just don't forget to validate your parking, cuz they sure didn't ask preemptively. They were celebrating a 3-day grand reopening when we went on Saturday. There was *one* artisan in their market space. The music was pumping loud enough to not be able to converse. Although it drew a crowd of younger folks, there was not much to behold from the "grand" reopening. Not even s cost of paint. The beach bar may not have been part of the sprucing up idk, I didn't see anything worth celebrating. I meant to look at the size of the cocktail cup that we got (small), but $13-14 for a cocktail is highway robbery for the end result. And $18 for 6 wings ($3 a wing) was a little disappointing. I expected better of a Hilton adjoined restaurant. No one part was terrible. It was just the way they matched up - loud, expensive, small portions. If you're loud maybe you're cheap and tasty. If you're expensive, maybe you're fast and delicious. This was all the worst parts of a bar that doesn't care about its patrons' economics. A bar that wants to serve tourists with mediocrity and move on to the next crop of people who will never be there again. If you're a tourist it'll probably be fine, if overpriced. If you're a local, don't bother. To be fair, we should ask if there was anything good. hm ... no. We won't be returning. 3 stars is probably generous.

A typical setup with thatched roof bar, lots of tikis and overall fun atmosphere. We were able to pick from their standard menu as well as their brunch menu, and we picked from the latter.

Our entree was a tasty crab cake served on a pretzel bun and served with tater tots ( our choice), and according to Tom " it was the bomb", as the "combined taste was so good".

Walked out questioning every life choice that didn't lead me here sooner. First, the Blue Hawaii. The menu literally says "discover what lurks inside this shark infested bowl" -- reader, I discovered it. It lurks. It lurks HARD. $29 for a triple-size cocktail you could legally register as a swimming pool? Reasonably priced. I'd pay that just for the cherries on top, which were arranged with the dignity of a Vegas headliner. The frozen cocktails in general are a steal. Pina Colada at $11, Lava Flow at $11, Hawaiian Mai Tai at $10 with a *dark rum floater* like it's just casually showing up to the party uninvited. I had a Cou-Cou Cooler and now I understand why it's called that. I am, in fact, cou-cou. Ordered the Florida Pork Nachos because I am a patriot. The mojo pulled pork, jalapeño queso, pineapple pico -- at one point I made eye contact with the flamingo on the menu and I swear he nodded at me like, "yeah, brother. yeah." Also got the Tiki Bleu Burger. Bleu cheese crumbles AND bleu cheese mayo. They're not playing. This burger has a position on bleu cheese and I respect that. My friend got the Warm New England Lobster Roll. She has not spoken to me since because she's still emotionally processing it. $33.99 well spent. Saved room for the Banana Butter Cake like the menu BEGGED me to, and I'm glad I listened because it has the audacity to be that good. Only complaint: the Yuca Fries upgrade is $1.99 and I feel like that should be illegal. Just charge me $5. Stop being so reasonable. 10/10. The flamingo knows what he's doing.

Somewhat crowded, as it was a beautiful evening ( 7:30-7:45) on a Saturday, although there were several tables available -- and I am assuming that's why service was slow. Our server was nice, but we rarely saw her....and had to wait a minimum of 15 minutes each time: had to wait once seated, for her to take our order, and she came by well after our food was done...then had to wait 10-15 minutes for our check. We only had one drink and 2 apps and was there for just about 90 minutes. So much for a quick bite. We will most likely not come during peak hours. The good: Got to catch a great sunset and have a tasty and healthy dinner ( ahi and pineapple chicken quesadilla )...the accompanying salsa for the latter was good and we wanted more than the tiny cup it came in, but since no one came to check on us, the taste of the quesadilla decreased.
