HOTEL DESCRIPTION The Island Grand is TradeWinds' classic four-diamond family- fun beachfront resort destination; casual, yet crisp, with a hint of the island tropics. Both tropical and traditional, the Island Grand is complete in its offerings, yet individual in its attention. The Island Grand is a serene paddleboat ride on a meandering canal... a massage and facial just before a fine dinner of fresh seafood... its stealing an evening alone as a couple, while the kids are entertained at Kids Night Out! It's endless choices of things to do, all drenched in the warm, relaxing Florida sun. The hotel offers an optional Explorer Value pass. The Explorer pass is $12 per night per room & provides access to a wide variety of services at both of the TradeWinds properties. The pass covers daily self parking, beach cabanas, pool towels, aerobics, in room safe, daily newspaper, local phone calls, faxes and use of the fitness and business center.
