Siesta Key Beachside Villas

10/10 Excellent

"👍"

Tropical Breeze Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Tropical breeze resort was very clean and a nice place to stay. It was right by everything that you would want. Beaches in walking distance, a few select restaurants close by, but if you’re looking for more, Sarasota is only several minutes away."

Cirque St. Armands Beachside

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was amazing-pool- location overall! Wonderful!"

Siesta Key Beach Resort and Suites

8/10 Good

"I had a three night stay at this hotel on Siesta Key. Great location, and I walked every where safely alone. Very friendly staff! My comments on the room. - the mattress needs to be replaced in room 102 - a threshold at the door would be nice to keep any critters from crawling into the room. - the dehumidifier in the room makes some very loud sounds, frequently, which woke me often."

Casa Limonada Boutique Motel

8/10 Good

"Quality of the area was ok. Clean room. But for the price and having to clean. Pull bed sheets, prepare laundry. Etc.. I would say price was high. Quick access to the beach. Great!! Beach supplies such as The cart with beach chairs. Umbrella was severely worn and functionality was limited."
