Sarasota Gulf Gate Mall Hotels

"very friendly and accommodating staff. We had an evening flight out and they let us keep our luggage in a storage room for the day. We enjoyed the pool, and pool bar. They state they have shuttle to the beach, but it's actually not a owned shuttle by the hotel, it's a free service by an independent company, so wait time varies. Clean and comfortable rooms. We would definitely stay again. "

"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 "

"This property was a little taste of an island paradise. It had so many beautiful plants, trees, fountains, paths that there was a surprise around every corner. The pool area was beautiful and the tiki bar a fun place for locals and guests. The room also had a mini kitchen if you are staying several days and want to do some cooking. We had a private little outdoor sitting area. We highly recommend. It’s also just before the bridge to Siesta Key. A local recommended Turtle Beach. We saw a beautiful sunset. "

"My husband and I had a lovely weekend at Hibiscus Suites. The staff was friendly and the location was convenient, but it’s on a very busy street. It appears they have done renovations, however, it was apparent that they cut corners on the bathroom and there was very little cold water, for some reason, in the shower so we took hot showers. These things were pretty minor, though, considering the price we paid and the proximity to everything Siesta Key. We would stay again"

"Temp in the room was great, room cleaning was great, I didn’t realize they had a laundry service"

"I made my reservation months in advance and later needed to add a night to the beginning of my trip. I was told this couldn’t be done under one reservation and would require two separate bookings. Confirmed via email with office staff. However, on the very first morning of my trip I had a very upsetting experience. While I was outside quietly enjoying my coffee and looking forward to a peaceful vacation, a cleaning staff member abruptly entered my rental space and aggressively told me, “You were supposed to check out at 10am.” Her tone was confrontational and unprofessional. I firmly explained that I had an active reservation through Thursday. Without any acknowledgment or apology, she turned and walked away, still visibly irritated. The interaction left me shaken. I immediately called the office, upset and in tears, to report what had happened. I was told the property manager would be notified and would reach out to me as soon as possible. That never happened. I received no follow-up and no attempt to address the situation. The only communication I’ve received since then has been requests for photos for their social media and prompts to leave a review. While the property itself is nice, the lack of professionalism and complete disregard for the guest experience make this a place I would not recommend. Do yourself a favor and pick a place where guests are treated with basic respect."

"Lots of space for a family or group. Beautiful kitchen! Good location close to Sarasota and Beaches. "

"Loved the outdoor space and outdoor shower."

"The area is quiet. The house is in a side road near a strip plaza. It’s cute and good for the tiny home experience. The microwave in our home looked pretty damaged on the inside. We did not use it but the stove top worked great!"
