I stayed for five weeks and overall had a great experience. There were a few mishaps during my stay, but each one was handled promptly and resolved to my satisfaction by the appropriate staff. Front desk team members Eileen, Victor, and Omar were consistently attentive and helpful.
Kathleen from the breakfast staff kept everything well-stocked (coffee, pastries, meats, and more) and the breakfast area was always clean and pleasantly festive. The Halloween pumpkin-carving contest and seasonal décor added a fun, welcoming atmosphere throughout the stay. The maintenance team was friendly, responsive, and made sure everything was in good working order.
The Mediterranean-style architecture added to the property’s visual appeal, and having a full kitchen in the room was a major convenience, especially with Publix and other shopping options right across the street.
I’m definitely planning to book here again on my next stay.

As a loyal Hilton member who travels a lot for work and play, I was very disappointed with my stay at Homewood Suites in Sarasota. Its saving grace was the friendliness of the staff. The reason for my 1 star review is because some sort of “bug” ate me alive during the night. I woke up several times scratching myself and found multiple bites all over my body in the morning while showering. Just thinking about it now makes me itch.
Guests beware!

The rooms are clean and spacious but the hotel is a bit dated and has an interesting U shaped layout with a courtyard setting. It is similar to an older motel where the lobby is separated from the rest of the hotel and you pull your car around after checking in. Since the rooms are interior this seemed to cause long walks to the elevator, parking, breakfast, etc. The breakfast was good but there was no hot water and I had to take a cold shower, never pleasant.

We had a one bedroom suite & it exceeded our expectations. We're used to staying at resorts & so visiting this hotel was a surprisingly comparable stay. The check in process was easy, everything was clean. The walk to the room from the few entry doors is a bit inconvenient but it is just how the building was built. The hallways smelled nice & sanitary. Staff was quick to respond on text. We loved the personalized message on the TVs. Breakfast was SUPERB! The options were full of variety & taste. The breakfast staff member (I cannot remember her name but she has quadruplet children) was phenomenal. Incredibly friendly, hospitable and provided some awesome tips for the area! We loved the price ($170 w/ taxes) for the night being that we were only a 15 minute drive from Lido Key Beach & shopping area. Room was clean & no complaints whatsoever. We traveled with two littles & it was a convenient size for us all (including our playpens). We have already decided we will make this our place to stay whenever we choose to take mini staycations in this area!
