I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The check-in process was quick and easy, and I was greeted with a warm smile. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable. The bed felt like sleeping on a cloud, and the view from my window was breathtaking. I also appreciated the small details—fresh towels, complimentary water, and excellent Wi-Fi. The amenities were top-notch. The pool area was clean and relaxing, and the fitness center had everything I needed. Breakfast each morning was delicious with plenty of variety, and the restaurant service was outstanding. What stood out the most was the staff’s hospitality. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and truly cared about making my stay perfect. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I would have given this 4* but the day we left at 6am another guest was checking out due to bed bugs…my biggest fear with staying in hotels. I just arrived home to find one on my pillow. I kept seeing black spots but nothing really moving till this one. Now I have to spray our car and luggage. The rooms are nice and beds comfortable. Only one chair in the room. No microwave. Pool is nice and the bartenders very friendly. The staff was nice. Great location to Siesta Key. Breakfast is continental.
