Golden Host Resort - Sarasota
This was my third stay at this proprerty. The only reason that I rated it 4 stars was due to the low water pressure in the shower. Other than that, always a fun stay.

The resort style pool is fantastic. Rooms are well maintained and modern. Love the full size fridge and kitchenette. ...
