Lovely getaway

The place was fine but according to the description we were expecting to see the water from our room. Was disappointed because we could not see any water from where we were, but other than that it was great.

Ramada Inn & Tarpon Tiki Bar

The bartenders & restaurant servers at the Tarpon Tiki Bar were excellent. Food was delicious. The only issue is we only had two days of 28 with a heated pool. When evening temperatures dipped to 47 degrees the water was awlful. Many people complained to the hotel staff but there was no rush to fix it. Our room was most enjoyable.

Family Emergency

Individuals at the front desk were welcoming and shared important information. Excellent outside lighting and camera coverage. Stay was quiet and comfortable. The decor made the space feel warm and relaxing. Consider listing within the space or electronically which amenities are inclusive and check-out guidelines. This information was not clear to me, therefore to avoid hidden fees I did not consume items in the space.

Cozy

The room was cozy. Listing could have provided details on snacks and items in fridge … didn’t know if they were included/complimentary or if I’d be charged if consumed so didn’t eat any of the items. Check in was good and staff friendly. Restaurant on site was busy with live music Friday and Saturday. We were NOT happy with their service on Saturday night as they “lost?” our order as several others who arrived long after we did received their food. We sat there for over an hour waiting and finally walked out.

Sarasota stay

Very fun lively tiki bar & nice pool. They kitchen in room was very makeshift. No water supply to sink so had a 5 gallon container under sink. No hot water. I had to wash dishes in the bathroom. You couldn’t have the burner & toaster going together or you popped the breaker. Nice for the price

Sarasota Bay

Outside area at Tiki bar and dock were very nice. The makeshift kitchen of camping equipment left something to be desired. The waterproof mattress pad and lack of top blankets definitely didn’t meet our expectations. The room could have used an upgrade.

Pleasant room with appreciated extras.

Room very nice with many extra touches. We appreciated the provided snacks & beverages. Plenty of towels in the bathroom, every small appliance that you might need in the efficiency kitchen. Beware of the spray from the bathroom sink, hard to avoid soaking the counter. Selected this property partly due to it's proximity to the Sarasota airport, but be aware that flights start about 6AM, will wake you up, & are continuous. SRQ is not the sleepy airport that it was a few years ago. Parking area a bit seedy. Party atmosphere at pool & bar. Would not be a good choice for a family with young kids. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
