Florida Gulf Coast hotel guide. Highgate Independent hotel in Florida Gulf Coast, Florida

"We stayed here for a week and had a great experience. The employees are super attentive and professional. The property is well-maintained and the amenities were great. "

"Everything was great. Location is awesome. Rooms are OK (a little stinky!). Property is wonderful. However, part of the building collapsed (almost right on us) near the pool entrance. The only other issue we had is that of all the locations in this expansive resort, they do not let you sit on, or provide any tables to sit and eat at unless you are paying at their restaurant. If you stay for multiple days, there will be times you want to eat outside food. We tried sitting at a beach table, and got kicked out. The server told us to go eat it on the couch in the lobby. (which we did) It would be my opinion that having guests sitting in the lobby eating is not only messy, but doesn't look great for guests entering. They would be better off providing seating anywhere on the property to sit, eat and enjoy the beach. There is enough space! "

"Loved the recent rwnovations"
