Top Sarasota Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway

Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway

10/10 Excellent
"Was not a fancy place but was affordable, clean and friendly. Love Siesta Key area but it's a little pricey and this was perfect for the price, just across the bridge and 10 minutes down the road to the beach to take in the sunset. We are local from central FL we were just looking for a overnight stay which was a closer take off point to Venice Beach to go shark tooth hunting for the day, this was perfect! We would stay again and would suggest to others looking to get close to Siesta Key but don't want to spend so much to stay directly on Siesta Key beach! We did try the food truck parked in the lot for a snack, it looked clean, staff was friendly. Food was fresh, hot and hit the spot! Lots of food and shopping around the motel also!"

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beachfront hotel! From the moment we arrived, everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and attentive. We were especially grateful for the room upgrade, which gave us more space and made it so much easier and more comfortable to enjoy our time with our family. The beach is absolutely beautiful, and we loved the pool area as well. The snacks were delicious, and I have to mention the restaurant Drift —it was amazing! The breakfast, dinner, and everything we tried was absolutely delicious. We loved it and will definitely be back! ❤️"
