The Spotlight on Saddlebrook Resort & Spa

Resort-Style Escape Close to Tampa’s Music Scene

Saddlebrook Resort & Spa is a peaceful, upscale retreat in Wesley Chapel—just a 30-minute drive from Tampa’s biggest concert venues. Set on lush grounds with palm-lined walkways, this resort blends leisure with luxury, offering everything from tennis and pickleball to spa treatments and spacious suites with private balconies.

Whether you're heading to a stadium show or a club performance downtown, this resort makes for a relaxing base to recharge in between sets.

Why Concert-goers love it

Though it’s tucked away from the downtown noise, Saddlebrook’s location places you within easy reach of Tampa’s major venues. After a high-energy night, you’ll appreciate the quiet, secluded atmosphere for winding down. With check-in starting at 4:00 PM and check-out by 11:00 AM, there’s just enough flexibility to fit in a post-show sleep-in. Rideshares are readily available, and the on-site amenities mean you won’t have to venture far if you’re recovering from a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to turn a concert into a getaway with tennis, golf, and spa time
  • Solo travelers wanting a calming space after seeing a bucket-list artist
  • Couples planning a romantic weekend with music and relaxation
  • Fans needing a quiet recovery zone after a loud show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value through spacious, sharable suites

Food and Drink Options

With five restaurants on-site, Saddlebrook makes it easy to grab a bite before or after your concert. Whether you want a proper sit-down meal or something quick, you'll find late-night dining options and casual bars. Suites with full kitchens are a bonus if you prefer to prep your own midnight snacks. Breakfast is available the next morning, perfect for late risers after a big night.

Nightlife Options

While the resort itself is more about relaxation than raging, you’ll find a few on-site bars offering drinks and a social vibe. Want to keep the night going? Tampa’s nightlife—including bars, lounges, and live music joints—is just a short drive away.

What People Say

Guests love the expansive suites, friendly staff, and serene setting. Reviewers frequently praise the resort-quality amenities, including the massive pool and spa services. Many also highlight how quiet and clean the property is, making it ideal for unwinding after a concert.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers mention that the resort is a bit of a drive from downtown Tampa, so it's not the spot for those wanting to walk to venues. The property is large, so be prepared for some walking between buildings. A few guests suggest that rooms could use minor updates.

The Bottom Line

Saddlebrook Resort & Spa is a relaxing, amenity-packed getaway that gives concert-goers the perfect mix of comfort, quiet, and convenience—just far enough from the noise, but close enough to the action.

It was the most inaccommodating...

Liked: The chef was the only nice person. Every night he made steamed veggies for the baby and came out to say hi to her.
Disliked: The floors of the room were so dirty they were turning the bottoms of our feet brown/black. My baby couldn’t run around in the room without me putting towels down because of how dirty the carpet was. She kept finding tuffs of hair all over. The bathroom floor was dirty that I had to clean it myself on my hands and knees so the baby could walk around.

Dreadful place to stay AVOID

Liked: Do not stay here. It is the worst resort I have ever stayed at. It is filthy and dilapidated. It should have a health warning. There were cockroaches in the room. The facilities were dreadful. The site is under construction and the main pool was closed. I would not recommend staying here!!!!
Disliked: Everything

Passable

Liked: I liked the pictures on the website.
Disliked: The fact that it was under renovation didn't stay that on the website. They charge for everything. That valet parking is $30 a day, I think it's too much when we had to walk to the front desk to check out because the front desk wasn't answer calls for pick up. Pillows sucked to flat. Shower heads need to be clean. Registration wasn't easy to find. Registration staff is unfriendly. I understand renovation, but this place had way too much going on. Place definitely needs to be renovated. Looks run down. Pictures look great but not what I thought I was booking.

Passable

Liked: The staff was friendly
Disliked: It’s currently under construction which you don’t find out till after you book. The rooms are old, our room felt like 75 degrees and after being in sun all day at tournaments, being told it’s just an old unit made for a very long uncomfortable night.
