"A lagoon-style beachfront pool is the way to go, unless, of course, you want to dip into Sandpearl's life-enriching programs that take you on guided kayaking tours."

"Small, hip boutique hotel, with just nine rooms and excellent service; crisp, stylish rooms come with plasma TVs, hardwood floors... full kitchens and free wi-fi, and it’s an easy walk to Main St."
Lonely Planet
Top Choice
"The nine rooms feel like a designer's brownstone apartment: free-spirited and effortlessly artful, but with real working kitchens. It's urban funk, walkable to downtown Sarasota."
