Independent, Sarasota hotels

" Very nice! 10/10. Very clean friendly staff great breakfast cookies and coffee! Perfect stay! Will be back!"

"Cute hotel with unique vibe. Close to airport, but there isn't much plane noise. Good location both to Sarasota and Bradenton. Breakfast was nice but nothing special. Standard as in most hotels. The bathroom lacks some privacy. Overall cool."

"Professional, friendly and knowledgeable staff. I was impressed to see many of the same staff from my visit four years ago, including vallet, Bellman, food service, and concierge. This says that the Ritz Carlton treats their employees well and in turn their customer service is top notch. "

"I enjoyed this property overall but didn’t care for the automatic $28 charge that makes you spend it at the restaurant. "

"Everything was very nice. Beds and pillows great. Silent ventilation. Very quiet at night. Perfect access to the beach. Nice pools and attentive service."

"It was a clean place to stay, the tiki bar was awesome!"

"Check in was a breeze and the lobby smells amazing. The staff were so nice and welcoming. The rooms showed their age a little but it was clean and well stocked. You get a complimentary drink from the hut which is so cool. We loved having a cocktail and getting to relax after a long travel day. We will definitely be back. "

"Very clean room, easy check in and check out. Beautiful pool and pool bar. Very nice continental breakfast every day. The staff was very courteous and took care of all our needs, especially on our wedding day and allowed us to exchange our vows in their garden area, as a small group. Lynn the pool bar tender was the best! Any type of drink you could think of she could make, and they were all delicious. The room could use a small table and chair or two if space allowed for one, but other than that it did the job. "

"Helpful staff, convenient location, some issues with housecleaning (forgot to clean one day, and another day, they just changed out the towels). The bed was too soft. The air conditioning unit was very loud at night. The outside speaker by the pool was on all night, right next to our window."
