Compass Hotel by Margaritaville Anna Maria Sound
Great, nice clean hotel. Booked a Duluxe balcony room facing the marina. The hotel is idealy located although nothing was really walkable outside of the hotel [other than] the FIsh House Bar/Restaurant] so a car is recommended to get you places. The breakfast at the hotel was fresh with a good variation ...

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota
Love the atmosphere here, feels more like your staying in a room on a big property rather than the hotel feeling, very good vibes and best drinks in Sarasota.
