This hotel is everything a five star hotel should be. Very nice linens, very clean room. But what sets this hotel apart is the staff. The service was amazing. I highly recommend the club level, the food and wine presentations were far more than were expected, every three hours or so a different and delicious presentation was brought out. On... more

My husband and I spent 5 glorious days at the Ritz in Sarasota, Florida. All of the hotel staff were warm, personable, and extremely accommodating. Our room , view, and overall comfort was exceptional. This Ritz has a private beach club about 3 miles from the hotel. A private mini bus awaited us and took us to the club where... more

The room was large and very clean; as was the bathroom. The grounds were immaculate at both the hotel and beach club. The beach club is beyond words as to how nice it... more

My husband and I stayed at the Ritz for three nights in July with our teenage son in a suite overlooking the bay. We loved everything about the hotel. Despite the fancy pants look of the place, the staff was completely down to earth and never uppity; in fact everyone was incredibly helpful, and little touches like offering us bottles... more

We could not have been more pleased with our experience (five days) at the Ritz-Carlton in Sarasota. Our room, overlooking Sarasota Bay was quite generous in size; the bathroom was lovely, always spotless and well-stocked. The staff, from beginning to end was pleasant & accomodating, and never stuffy. The Beach Club was gorgeous - you could not ask for a... more

My Mom and I enjoyed a weekend at the Sarasota Ritz in adjoining rooms on the club floor. We were impressed as usual with the Ritz staff and service. From the person who greets you at your car to everyone you encounter on your path to the front desk and then to your room, everyone is just looking for a... more
