My husband and I have been relocated to Sarasota by the company he works for and we came back to this hotel knowing it was pet friendly. The entire staff from Thom, Kamire, and Jason at the front desk to Ismor and Guadalupe in housekeeping could not have been more amazing to my husband and I and our three cats.... More

There was ALWAYS someone at the desk to help us, answer questions, and offer suggestions for local restaurants. We were in town for the soccer cup at Lakewood Ranch. Easy commute to LR and downtown Siesta Key & Longboat Key. The room was excellent! The bed is awesome! The flat screen televisions were in the LR and the BR... Very... More

I stayed with my family for several nights at the Residence Inn. The hotel was in the midst of a renovation, but it wasn't terribly noticeable for the most part. The room was nice, and as you probably are aware with Residence Inn you get a kitchen and living area. So even though I was in the smallest type of... More

I'm happy to read you enjoyed your studio suite during your recent stay. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed to read the remainder of your review, which stated the side entry was not locking and my front desk attendant was not to be found. I assure you I am reviewing both of these issues and will have them corrected immediately. Our... More

It's been some moments during our stay where we couldn't find a single person working in the hotel for hours. They were leaving the hotel literally deserted after 8PM. Dogs were barking from other rooms till morning and the pool was always dirty. Due to their ongoing renovation we had our breakfasts in a temporary room with plastic party plates... More

Dear Guest, I apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your recent stay with us here at the Residence Inn by Marriott Sarasota. We were undergoing lobby renovation when you stayed which resulted in our breakfast & social offerings to be relocated to guest suites as not to eliminate these amenities for our guests. The lobby has completed its renovation... More

DH and I recently moved to the Sarasota/Bradenton area. We needed a place to stay for several days prior to closing on our new home. Since we have multiple pets, we needed both a pet friendly place AND one that did not require us to be in the room with the pets the entire time. Many years before, I'd stayed... More

Our family stayed here for 2 nights. We used this as our home-base to drive to Siesta Key and Anna Maria Island for the beach. Free breakfast in the morning. Siesta key was nice also but my favorite hands down is Anna Maria. Crystal clear blue water. The drive took us around 40 minutes but no big deal... Parked near... More

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and even happier to hear you'll be back! I'd have to agree Anna Maria Island is my favorite too. I feel like I'm on vacation when ever we head there on the weekend. I love the Rod & Reel restaurant on the pier and there are some great little shops.... More

Pros: The meals during the week, along with beer and wine, waffles at breakfast, extras at breakfast, close to Lido beach, great staff. Cons: Needs updating, chemicals in pool or hotub were off making our skin irritate, plastic forks at buffet at times. More
