Salty’s Tiki Bar

It took us some time to find this little place, not realizing it was inside of the ginormous complex that is the TradeWinds Resort, but it was totally worth it. The resort is really nice and I suggest meandering through during your visit.
The tiki bar is just a tiny little poolside bar outside, but not THE pool bar. I ordered a rum drink called the toasted monkey or something (?) and it was DELICIOUS. Hazelnut liquer was poured in the bottom of a frozen rum, coconut, and banana concoction, creating a perfect vacationy libation.
We also ordered the grilled brie from the lunch menu. It was served with berries, apples, crostinis, and a mouth watering orange marmalade. Yum yum yum!!!
I would definitely stop by this place again in the future. Cool atmosphere, decent service, and great offerings.

Fun place. Good drinks. Affordable. We had a really good time. Nothing like ice cold beer on a really hot night.

Stop #6 on the beach pub crawl. This bar has a cool Tiki Hut and is in one of the nicer resorts in St Pete Beach with a heated pool and hot tub. There is food available here but I didn’t have anything. Their pin a cola dash are excellent. Full liquor bar. Casual dress. Quick service. Sometimes there is a live band but it’s hit or miss. 1 out of the last 5 times I’ve been have they had an actual live band there. There is plenty of parking here for hotel guests but not for those looking visit the bar.

Wonderful and friendly bar staff. Terrific rum drinks. A great setup with chairs in the sun and others in the shade. Having the ring game available makes it a must do.

Great drinks, attentive bartenders & beautiful view right on the beach everything you could want in a tiki bar!

This little bar is right outside the brecken ridge building. After several drinks, the marvelous mango was by far my favorite. If you are not a sweet drinker, this may not be for you. They also have tv screens for your enjoyment and a small menu you can order from.
Definitely play the wall hooky, that game is no joke!

Drinks are poured strong and it’s in a great location. What else are you looking for in a tiki bar? ;)

This is one of my favorite spots on the beach. I try to make it here at least once a month when I want to play tourist for a few hours. Nothing better then pulling up to the Tiki Hut, ordering a tropical drink (get it in the big cup, you pansy) and just letting the day fly by.
The amount of drinks that they have available are endless as these are professional bartenders who have probably heard and made it all since everyone they see is out of town (white lie). But, for the uninitiated or unimaginative, they have a drink menu that I’m sure will wet your whistle just fine.
Me? I just ask the bartender to make me something yummy. I’ve never been disappointed.
FWIW, they also have a bunch of LCD TV’s surrounding the hut if for some reason beautiful views of the sunset, beach, or beach-​goers are just not up to your standards.
A bit more on atmosphere… they also typically have an acoustic player playing all those vacation hits and a Bimini Ring Toss setup within drunken-​shuffling distance.
Food options? They have a regular food menu as well as a menu from Beef-O-Brady’s (on-​property) that you can order from. mmm wings.
