Azul Resort Siesta Key
Very clean, amazing location for us with great restaurants near by and beach access. It is a bit further from the main beach and town

Tropical Breeze Resort
The property met our needs for the most part. Our room was the standard and did not have a microwave which would have been helpful. But other than that, there was no complaints. The pool and outdoor area were beautiful. The spa I feel like gave us itchy skin though so I would stay clear of that.
