Food, breakfast excellent……. Just one comment ….. the dress code in the dining room area was not really up to the standard of what we expected for such a beautiful resort…. By the way this is a constructive comment as it is a beautiful resort…
IrelandLocation is great, being right on the beach. The hotel staff are really helpful. The swimming pool was perfect, heated to a comfortable temperature and near to a pool bar. The hotel design and decoration is stunning - a very relaxing and comfortable place to stay.

United Statesexcellent location and friendly staff that helped us with a change of room to seafront.
SwedenExcellent location for Longboat Key and St Armands Circle. Hotel is spotless and has a great pool area and beach. The weather was a little cold so with limited time we did not see the best of the hotel but from check in to check out all were delightful and helpful and the hotel and facilities were immaculate.
United KingdomThis hotel is just wonderful. Room has been very clean and well equipped, plenty of towels, pillows etc.
United Statesit was located on the beach but also pool front which was nice especially with red tide. Everything we ate was good here too which surprised me honestly.
United StatesUnbeatable beach access. Foot wash, balcony size for beachfront king room. Burger was good. Valets were awesome and friendly. Great pool.
United StatesWe loved the location, directly at the beach, close to Sarasota and other Restaurants. The newer building (and rooms) are definitely nicer than the old rooms, just because of the floorplan (bathroom size). Staff was in general very friendly and always tried to make extra efforts. After expressing our disappointment about the room they offered to move into the newer building which was very kind and generous.
