The Ritz-Carlton, Sarasota

A beautiful hotel. We loved the spacious, clean hotel room with a luxurious bathroom. We also enjoyed using the nice gym, drinks at the pool and a trip to the private beach club.

We have traveled a lot, and we've never stayed at Ritz-Carlton before, however, every person that has recommended us to stay at the Ritz always talk about how great the staff are and we were not disappointed. From the valet guys to the cleaning staff, just a 100/10. The room is spacious, and everything was immaculate. The pool was nice, but the water was HOT that it wasn't refreshing, but blame the scorching hot Florida weather. Pool drinks were good, and the staff was very attentive. I booked in advance a massage for my husband since we were celebrating our anniversary and the girl over the phone did tell us about that the actual spa area was in the process of remodeling so we really couldn't enjoy the full spa experience. No big deal. My husband loved the massage, and it was worth it.

The beach club was the highlight for us. It’s beautiful, has a nice pool and the beach service is excellent! Best piña colada ever. The property is beautiful! Also took a yoga class which was great! It’s a hotel that offers plenty of things to do!!

The convenience of the location to all the shops and restaurants in walking distances. I like the architecture and roman style of the building.
