Sitting on the banks of Tampa Bay, the Safety Harbor Resort
and Spa serves as a beacon to those who are searching for the
ultimate pampering for themselves.
The springs were purchased by The Espiritu Santo
Springs Corporation.
In 1926, the Safety Harbor Sanatorium and Hotel were built by W.E.
Sinclair and his partners in the Espiritu Santo Springs Corporation. Guests
came to the Sanatorium and the hotel to be cured of their health problems
by drinking and bathing in these healing waters. The original five springs
were named for their natural and healing properties: Beauty, Stomach,
Liver, Kidney and Pure Water. As Florida’s First Spa, thousands of people
over the years continued to seek these waters for the tranquility, health and
wellness they provided.
