Hotels in Bayview, Sarasota

"Great hotel! We enjoyed our stay. Beds were comfortable."

" I rarely leave negative reviews, but after giving Hilton multiple opportunities over several months to address this matter privately, I feel it is important to share my experience. During my stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Sarasota Bradenton Airport over the Thanksgiving holiday, I experienced an extremely troubling interaction with the on-site manager. When I attempted to provide calm feedback during checkout regarding a racially insensitive assumption made during check-in, the manager responded by raising his voice, speaking over me, and escalating the situation in front of staff and guests. At one point he shouted, “I am raising my voice, and I will raise my voice,” and stated, “Yes, get me fired. My name is David Alexander. Get in line.” The situation became even more concerning when, after I briefly stepped away to retrieve my car for my elderly mother who has dementia, the manager approached my mother and my 19-year-old daughter directly in my absence to discuss the issue. Neither of them should have been placed in that position. I reported the incident to Hilton Corporate the same day. What followed has been months of delays and deflection. Corporate initially stated the hotel would handle it, then later referred me to the property ownership representative. Despite following those instructions and reaching out again, I have received no response. What is most disappointing is not only the original incident but the complete lack of accountability or meaningful foll"

"Cleaning was ok"

"We had a great stay at Kompose Boutique Hotel in Sarasota. Everything was clean, modern and very well organized. The staff was friendly and helpful during our entire stay. The breakfast was very good and nicely prepared every morning. It was a great way to start the day before going out. The location is also very convenient – it’s a short drive to the beaches and many restaurants nearby. Overall we were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back again. Thank you for the great hospitality! "

"It was the Girls weekend in Sarasota, so 4 of us, ladies stayed at Carlisle for the 1st time and we were literally impressed. Pictures does not do any justice. It is beautiful, very clean, very nice staff at reception and all over the hotel. Rooms are very spacious , and you get walk in closet, two sinks , one of them outside the shower room , excellent concept! Two of my friends wanted also to add to this review. D said : “ Couldn’t have been in been any better” J said : “the hotel was absolutely gorgeous. I loved the extra wide hallways, the deep blue coloring throughout, we had adjoining rooms which were giant, the headboard were beautiful” So yes! We will definitely revisit. BTW you have a very nice restaurant and an Amish bakery on the property, so yummy! Beside the complimentary hot breakfast we got complimentary fresh made cookies at 4pm from the bakery in the hotel’s lobby. The only regret we had is that we couldn’t stay longer! "

"Rooms are very clean."

"Room didn’t look anything like pictured. Air conditioner was broken laying on floor. Moved it and cockroaches ran from under. Bed wasn’t made. Room was supposed to be non smoking. Reeked of smoke. Front desk staff was no help. Had to leave and find other hotel accommodations. Absolutely disgusting. Lots of loitering all around hotel. Very uncomfortable and unsafe feel. "

"Excellent "

"The pool was amazing and the happy hour was a fun time every day. The breakfast was the best ever! Would totally stay here again!"
