Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Sarasota

Excellent property. Excellent location, across the street from the beach. The villa is fully equipped (it has its private pool!) and the staff is super friendly

Roberto the host was extremely nice and kind. When we got to the place in the late after noon we realized the beach house given could not accommodate the five of us. When I reported that to Roberto he suggested to upgrade us to a villa with a private pool in the complex. Eventually we stayed in the villa for the duration of our stay (2 nights). The villa was wonderful. Great facilities including stuff for the beach, very nice pool, comfortable beds, TV with Netflix and an equipped kitchen. Thanks Roberto for making sure our stay will be an unforgettable one!!

The location is within about 10 minutes walking distance of the beach access and also the downtown area with several shops, bars, and restaurants. The private pool is a huge bonus and there are plenty of beds and space to accommodate large parties. We really appreciated the beach wagon, chairs, and umbrella provided for use at the beach. The property manager was very responsive. Plenty of parking in the circular driveway to accommodate about 4 full-size vehicles.

This was such a gorgeous place - very spacious, clean and decorated tastefully. The staff was remarkably friendly and communicated so nicely - we felt totally welcome. The beds were so comfortable! The heated pool was exceptionally clean and same for the pool area. We had big pool towels and a buggy with chairs & umbrella for the beautiful beach. There were ice cubes in the freezer and some welcoming snacks in a basket on the table - so cordial! We would love to stay here - the next time at Siesta Keys... !

Nice little property. A bit older but still very nice. The pictures don’t do the pool justice! The pool was a nice relaxing area! Our room was right out by the pool and we loved it! Sat out on loungers till almost 11pm just enjoying the night. Could use a propane fire pit to complete the area!

Had occasion to go to the pool bar on a Saturday afternoon. Lisa, the bartender, was so personable! We had such a fun time. There was a wonderful DJ and Lisa helped everyone there enjoy the afternoon. There was dancing and singing(several of the guests joined in with some Kareoke). We were so glad we chose the pool bar with the Lisa & Joe Combo....AWESOME EXPERIENCE!! Thank you Aloft!

This property was so close to restaurants and the free trolly service. We loved the rooftop pool, and the complimentary bikes helped us get to Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in only a few minutes. All of the staff were extremely kind and helpful. Super trendy and fun place to be, we enjoyed the views, bar, pool, staff, comfortable rooms, everything! Definitely worth a stay.

I was really impressed with this property. Excellent walkable location, affordable, nice common areas and bar, and fabulous pool!! We weren't even there on the days when the pool bar was open, that would be even better! Would definitely stay here again if we come back to Sarasota.

Great location, mostly friendly staff, adequate room, great rooftop pool area with cabanas and bar/live music, lobby a value-add with bar/comfortabel tables and pool table area, outside patio nice, very convenient to downtown shopping/retaurants... definitely over priced for king room we had (but they put us in an accessible room so that may have been part of the problem), bedding and towels minimalistic at best - not cozy or luxurious as intimated, advertises restaurant on website but no food on site except snacks for purchase, bar costs very expensive for offerings...would still recommend staying during non price-surge periods as it is a solid hotel with friendly staff and a great location

Good place in Sarasota. Hotel was clean and staff was friendly. Rooms are normal and not very big. I guess that is Aloft style. No upgrades available as all rooms are the same. Rooms are quiet and very dark which is good for nice sleeping. Breakfast is just a few items to pick from nothing fancy. The pool is really nice and kinda rooftop. It is weird that apartments completely overlook the pool, But overall its nice. several shops and restaurants are nearby and within walking distance. Also, there is a waterfront within walking distance as well. Good place for a short business trip. Enjoy!

Each section of units has a private pool.

Our family was overall happy with our stay. The location alone made it worth it. Pros-Location! -It’s in walking distance to the village and the beach, private pool, recently renovated, the daytime staff was very sweet and helpful. Cons-There is only one mirror in the entire unit, the shower window is I believe facing the wrong way-you can’t see out, but you can see in!, we saw two cockroaches, the girl working the evening shift was very unpleasant.

Where do I even start! The is my new favorite destination & hotel. Perfectly located less than a block from the beach in one director and less than a block from all the restaurants and strip in the other direction. Attentive staff & comfortable bed. The pool and hot tub area were top notch, we watched a lightning storm by ourselves in one of their several pools and really felt relaxed. They also provide beach chairs and free bicycle access that truly enhance the beach experience. We couldn’t have been happier. The manager helped work with us for late check out to facilitate our travel time to Orlando. Best sunset views and they even give you a table and chair set up outside the room. There are grills and palm trees and everything one would need for a relaxing vacation. Don’t even think about it- BOOK with no hesitation. I’ve been to 50 countries and Tropical Breeze Hotel is now one of my most favorite places to stay. We will be back as soon as we can! 5 star for sure.

Location, location, location! What a wonderful beach cottage. While it’s not beachfront it’s a close leisurely walk to the beach and even closer walk to the siestas key village where there’s a ton of things to do. We never drove anywhere. We rented a 1 bedroom king size cottage. Had enough room for myself, my husband and even our dog. The price includes bikes onsite , 2 pools, beach chairs and pool toys. You can’t beat it. We absolutely loved it and will be back.

Great location, short walk to the beach, restaurants and even the grocery store. Room was comfortable, recently renovated and very clean. Might have a nightstand with water stains but not a big deal. Pools were very nice! The manager went out of his way to show us around and make us feel comfortable. He made sure we were aware of the amenities - beach chairs, bikes, two pools, bbqs, etc. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!!

The Mermaid was perfect for us; clean, well equipped, great location to Siesta Key Beach (4-5 minute walk), heated pool, they supply beach chairs - umbrella - beach towels - wagon. It had everything you need. The Siesta Key Island Rental team were outstanding to deal with, from start to finish their communication was perfect. We will be back!

Loved the location and the cleanliness of the property. The pool was perfect and the area was quiet and walkable to the beach

Property was in the perfect location! Close walk to the beach and the village! Perfect little beach house with an adorable pool!

I loved how it was right above a convenience store that had anything you wanted or needed. The spacious unit came with multiple rooms and two different living room areas. I was blown away with how it looked exactly like the pictures most places make it look better on pictures but this one really captured it all. It was so nice being able to walk to the beach with a trail just right across the street the easiest access to find and go through.

This property is a a great location. There’s plenty of space and beds. It’s short walking distance to the beach. There are tons of great restaurants and water sport activities near by. It’s also close by all the main shops! They had literally everything we needed here, even beach chairs. We will definitely be staying here again next visit.

Nice rooms next to the pool. Clean. All basic amenities except you need to buy your own coffee. Good size kitchen. Pullout couch/bed is brand new and pretty comfortable.

Wonderful location, walk right on the beach. Provided gear needed.

The HOME2SUITES Sarasota 1-75 As a lifetime Hilton Honors Diamond Member - we have found the HOME2Suites provides the Best Bang for your Bucks. This location did not disappoint. The rooms are clean and quiet. The furnishings are up to date with guests in mind. The WiFi is free and fast. The breakfast is also free with a large selection of hot & cold items. The staff is friendly and helpful. Special Kudos to Joyclen - her warm and welcoming smile made my wife and I feel right at home. The fitness room and pool are super nice 😊 And they have a washer / dryer for only $2 per load. There were only two suggestions that I would recommend for management. They ran out of towels during the Labor Day weekend which created some issues both for swimmers and guests. Also - the individual that heads up the breakfast area gave off a unwelcoming feeling with her demeanor. Our attempts to smile and greet her did little to change the tone. It might not have helped that the bread was moldy - which they did throw out and replace the next day. Overall - we would still give this location 5 Stars ⭐️ for exceptional performance and service.

We came in as a late check in and the night person Eric was amazing! Make sure to give him a pat on the back or an Amazon gift card lol he was awesome he definitely helped my family out with a smooth check in. Thank you Eric! Oh also everyone at this location was very nice. It was clean bed was comfy and breakfast was tasty and the pool was warm at night.

Great stay. Great Breakfast. New / Clean / Relaxing. Love the Home2Suites brand. So much value for your money. The LONG counters in the bedroom were perfect for our 5 suitcases. Loved the kitchen with fridge, microwave, coffee maker and DW! Didn't get to the pool but the outdoor spaces looked so inviting also.

We were in town visiting Siesta Key beach and other local sites during spring break. This is a chill spot, wasn't too crowded. My family and I had a nice stay. Room was clean, hotel staff was friendly, good breakfast and pool was clean. We would stay here again.

The breakfast was excellent . The staff is so friendly and nice and very helpful. and the room was spectacular the cleanliness the kitchenette. Everything was lovely me and my family. We enjoyed the pool my nephew and my husband enjoyed the gym.

We were stuck in a hotel for a few days while awaiting work on our RV (aka our home). Check-in was pretty easy and the staff were friendly. We didn't know to ask but we got a first-floor room facing the pool. It's a little longer of a carry for bags but I imagine it's a ton quieter than the parking lot side of the building. The pool and hot tub area are quite nice and there's a little pond out back that is nicely landscaped. My wife and kids got breakfast each morning. Standard "continental breakfast' fare food. No one complained, but no one raved about it. Apparently they could tell who was on clean-up duty each day, some days the breakfast was cleaned up by 9:30 (end of breakfast) and others it was just starting to be closed up at 9:30. Beds were decently comfortable and the room was decent size. The air conditioner didn't blow as cold of air as we would have liked and it never quite got down as cool as we would have preferred. Usually not a problem, but it messed with our sleep a bit. My wife used the laundry. One machine didn't dry the clothes. The staff refunded her money and she used a different dryer that worked fine. Just around the corner is a BBQ place called Sonny's BBQ that was amazing. We actually stopped there a second time after we checked-out. A short drive away is another restaurant called the Shake Station. This was an absolutely fantastic little dinner with great food and ice cream.

this is our 3rd or 4th time we've stayed at the quality inn bradenton fka comfort inn. we always spend a week or two in bradenton during winter, but it has been a couple of years since we've stayed here. the hotel which has the motel style outside entry room doors. the walkways, lobby, breakfast area, pool is kept very clean. our room had two queen beds, of average size, was super clean with what appeared to be new carpeting. the bathroom with shower and toilet was a smaller separate room to the sink that was outside it. beds were very comfortable. nicely furnished with microwave and refrigerator. the tv was good size, with showtime. the free breakfast was very good with eggs, sausage pattys, waffle and pancake maker. sausage gravy and biscuits was very good. average coffee. oj, fruit, cereal, etc. many copys of usa today newspaper available. we happy the usual breakfast was served during the coronavirus. not many people there, so you could even eat in the breakfast area/lobby. pool was open too. our room # 211 internet/wifi did not work very well, connection would come and go. appears this room too far from modem/router. if we were gonna stay longer, we would have asked to be moved. price just alittle high at $95 not including tax/fees, since it is far from beach(that was closed), near I-75.

My wife and I stayed here for one night waiting for our power at home to return. I'll have to say that this was the best Quality Inn that we have ever stayed at, and that has been quite a few across the states. The double queen room was VERY clean, spacious, beds were comfy, shower was GREAT. Breakfast was very good, always love biscuits and gravy! Staff was friendly and helpful. Nice size pool. Adequate workout room. Great location- many good restaurants nearby, close to I-75. Price was reasonable as well. Definitely would stay here again and I recommend this hotel to all that my be looking in the area.

Big room! Clean. View of pool and courtyard. I usually do not like when each room Opens to the outside. This one has doors on outside that open to an enclosed courtyard. It was nice/ quaint. Sink separate from toilet/ shower! The best. Jacuzzi tub for 1 not 2 as stated on website. Breakfast was complete -3 protein choices -eggs/sausage/yogurt Other standard breakfast items like bread/ muffins/waffles/cereal... Breakfast attendant kept items filled and was willing to assist with anything and anticipated needs. Overall good value!

This is now Quality Inn. This is the nicest Q.I. I've stayed at. Large , clean rooms. Looks recently renovated. Large flat screen TV with all the channels. Great job with breakfast. Pool area is clean. Water us great. Entire staff very helpful and friendly. Miranda and Melissa went above and beyond to help us. I highly recommend this hotel.

Breakfast was very good with many a la carte options; Front desk staff very friendly; Service staff courteous and helpful; Pool and pool area were clean and very well maintained; Lobby area clean; Room was clean and fresh. Nice touch with lemon water available in the lobby for all arrivals.

I came to the Courtyard Bradenton on 1/20/23 and I stayed 4 nights. I found the room to be spotless, the pool and patio areas were lovely and relaxing. My room had nice amenities and was very comfortable. The cafe in the lobby was very convenient. Every member of the staff that I met were wonderful. They all were helpful and very professional. My room was very quiet. I stayed on the first floor. I had no idea that there were lots of soccer kids there for a tournament until I opened my door in the morning. My next 3 nights were equally quiet. It lightened my heart to see so many happy kids My trip was for a sad reason, my brother fell ill, and I stayed at Lakewood Medical Center with him until he passed. I needed a close place to stay afterwards to take care of matters. I am so grateful for the kindness of the staff and very appreciative of the hospital discount. Thank you, Leslee Siano

While this is an older hotel, (paint on paint) we found the location was great, on the water walk, great pool and hot tube. Staff could not be any more pleasant and accommodating. We used the suite with two adults and 3 children. Sofa bed not bad (its a sofa bed). two queen were comfortable. We loved it.

Such a nice facility - it has a nice gym, pool, and hot tub and is close to Ana Maria Island beaches. The room was spacious and clean. I also left some clothing in my room when I checked out and the team was able to find it for me and coordinate a return!

The pool area didn't appear to be kept up very much. The hallway to our room was kind of smelly. Plus it was kinf of awkward walking past all the worker areas to our room. Will all of the doors open and peaple working it felt pff.

I enjoyed my stay here. Will definitely choose Magnuson again. The only issues I had was that the pool was down and I didn't know about the $100 deposit. But overall the visit was great

They change the towels and clean the room daily while you stay the property is clean from outside the pool is super clean

great breakfast, great heated pool and spa, great location, not far from beaches and plenty of places to ride bicycle

We stayed at the Hotel for a month in March-April 2016. If you have seen the movie mentioned in the title of this review you might appreciate the connection. Overall, the M-Star appears to be run on a tight budget and as a result some amenities and updates need attention. The folks that run the place were really great, friendly and very accommodating. A lot of the review rating is for them. If there is something you want or need just mention it to the manager or staff, but you do need to ask. If staying multiple nights, mention at the desk if you want the bed linen changed every day. The rooms we stayed in were comfy and clean. The bathtub/shower and toilet area are behind a closed door. The wash basin, mirror etc. for shaving, makeup etc. are in an open space that is part of the sleeping accommodations. There is a small refrig and a microwave in the room. The breakfast area is small (3 tables) and offers coffee, tea, fruit, cold cereal, packaged pastries and oatmeal. With reference to the movie, we thought the pool was quite uniquely situated as were the palm trees in the rear of the complex. The hotel is conveniently located right on a well traveled road that has easy access to all of the downtown Bradenton malls, restaurants etc. We would certainly consider staying there again on our next trip to Bradenton.

We stayed 2 nights during the tropical storm, non smoking double room. Very clean, didn't smell muggy like some motels. Didn't see any bugs. Staff is very accommodating and welcoming. Beds and bedding were super comfortable. Even had a little coffee maker with a little packet of coffee. Always felt very safe. I've stayed there before and they always remember me.

Very quick check in and out. Stayed 2 night, asked for new sheets second day and they had someone come in and clean whole room over again plus new sheets for both beds, all we needed was the sheets but were so pleased with how above and beyond they went. Rooms were updated, very roomy and clean, didnt hear anyone around us so noce and quiet as well. Used laundry on site, worked great. The pool was warm and very enjoyabke for us and the kids. Have a tiki bar right next to the pool which is AWESOME. Racetrac located right nextdoor and only 15min to a good beach. Only downfall was current construction on the building following the last hurricane but didnt bother us much and wed definitely come back!

We were very impressed with Lantern Inn and Suites for the price. Our room was a nice size, clean, had comfortable beds, and seemed recently renovated. The pool was kept clean as were the washers and dryers (I had just stayed in a hotel in a different town that had some that left stuff all over my clothes so it is the first thing I noticed here). I would definitely stay here again if I ever return to Sarasota.

They cleaned our room every day! Made our bed, emptied trash cans, and gave us new towels!! It was so nice to come back each evening to a tidied room!! The bed was comfortable and even though it’s close to the busy road, it was nice and quiet! The tiki bar and pool is a rare find at a hotel like this and definitely so much fun!!

The staff was excellent! The room was very nice and very quiet! The bed and the pillows were the great! The pool was nice although the weather wasn’t warm enough for us to go in. The Tiki bar was a nice added bonus. We were there on St. Patrick’s Day so it was hopping. We had a great time!

Everything was terrific! The staff is friendly and efficient and definitely believe in service with a smile! There is a great tiki bar out front that the local people come and enjoy. The location was pretty central and just minutes from the airport, waterfront, and the center of town. The heated pool was icing on the cake!
