Nice place -- I spent three nights there. Good location for business if you're going back and forth between the Tampa Bay area and Sarasota County, as I was. The property affords pretty surroundings -- though you wouldn't want to swim in the water there. Services were okay -- standard Holiday Inn fare, with pleasant people but flaws on the... more

The property is not new, but the rooms were clean. The staff really made our stay the most pleasant - from the Front Desk staff at the time we checked in, the attentive restaurant staff, the bartender - who made sure we felt included, and even the security staff made their friendly presence known. The hotel has a lush landscape,... more

A very quiet and peaceful hotel. The pool was clean and warm ,we were the only ones using it in the evenings so very enjoyable. The room was large enough for us ,a family of four, and kept very clean by the staff. Yes it is a bit dated but this does not detract from the overall service which you... more

Very nice resort. Our room was large and clean, the bed okay but a bit small. The wireless internet connection worked without a problem. We enjoyed a great bayside view and the nice lawn outside our room. Another plus: the jacuzzi. The outdoor bar was closed, as we visited during the off-season. The location is good, quiet, but close to... more

We spent two nights at the Sunspree marina cove-and guess either the hotel has been taken over or some people really do expect way to much for the money they pay !!!! I was able to get up and swim from 7am in the heated pool-needed after a flight from the UK the previous day. All staff helpfull, rooms clean... more

Lot’s of mixed reviews regarding this hotel. (Some of them made me thankful that my wife is who she is) We wanted to sail to a hotel in one day, allow us to enjoy a king size bed while the kids enjoyed their “kid time” (Kid = 20-30YO) on board the boat. We wanted a pool, clean room, a hot... more

I love this hotel...this was the most relaxing time i had in florida. the beach was beautiful, the pool was even better. the staff were ok. this place is close to everything only 20-25min drive to bush gardens and walmart was about 5 min. I was there before when i was a kid and it was just like i remembered.... more

Went for a long weekend with other family members - we booked three rooms. The place is quite old and shows it. The "beach" area I wouldn't let my dog swim at, let alone my grandchildren - it was filthy, I didn't even want the children playing in the sand. The pools were the only redeeming feature - very nice... more

DO NOT waste your money on this hotel......there is not a ocean view, it is a view of the stinky bay, and yes i said stinky. The smell was so bad it almost made me sick to my stomach. There was so much seaweed on the beach that we went to a near-by beach. The only thing good I have... more
