The Ritz-Carlton, Sarasota
Great location and a quick shuttle ride to the beautiful Lido beach. The staff at the beach club were great, especially Lea! I went for a girls trip but definitely couples and family friendly. I will definitely be back.

Mold in the showers. Rented a suite. Could have been any king room. Not impressed with the condition of the hotel.
