Sarasota
Sarasota offers visitors award-winning white sandy beaches and clear warm seas paired with the world-class art and culture of the John & Mable Ringling Museum and the Ca d’Zan Mansion. Located just an hour south of Tampa, the city of Sarasota is on the mainland, while the beaches are on the keys (or islands) which are reached by a causeway across Sarasota Bay. All of the hotel properties are located on or within a short walk to the beach with great shops and restaurants nearby. There is also a range of apartments and homes on or close to the beach, and some within a short drive of the beach.
