Great pool and air conditioning, but wi-fi was spotty during our stay.

It was just a fine choice for a passing visit in Sarasota with good value. The beach was right nearby, which was great for quick access. If you have a service animal, make sure to clarify any fees ahead of time.

Loved the charming character and cleanliness of the place. The heated pool was great, and I enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen. Would definitely return again!

Direct beach access with great views. Room decor needs some updates. Friendly staff made our stay enjoyable.

9 days of paradise!

Had the best stay! Tami at check-in is the sweetest and made us feel so at home. we even hugged her goodbye! Esther, our housekeeper, is awesome, always leaving my daughter's stuffed animals on the bed. The only thing was the beach chairs could've been more comfy. Can't wait to return in April!

I had a lovely stay at Gulf Beach Resort Motel. The room was well-decorated and featured a kitchenette that made it easy to prepare meals. The beach access was a highlight, allowing for stunning sunsets and leisurely walks. The staff was welcoming and attentive, ensuring a smooth check-in process and providing helpful recommendations for nearby attractions.

Wi-Fi connectivity could be improved.

The fresh tropical fruits were a delight and paired perfectly with the local seafood I discovered! Plus, the cozy room and easy beach access truly made my stay memorable.

I stayed in a Deluxe Studio at Gulf Beach Resort Motel. The room was cozy and had a nice kitchenette, which was super handy for making breakfast. Beach access was fantastic, and the sunsets were stunning! It had a homey charm, but I really wish the Wi-Fi had been better. Overall, comfy and functional.

easy access to beautiful parks and iconic landmarks

During my stay, I loved the short walk to Bird Key Park, where I enjoyed scenic views and a peaceful atmosphere, and the fact that I could easily stroll over to John Ringling's impressive estate to soak up some local history made my weekend truly memorable.

I loved the homey charm of our well-decorated room and the easy beach access, making it perfect for enjoying beautiful sunsets and relaxing walks along Lido Beach. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive throughout our stay.

Wish for better Wi-Fi connectivity throughout the motel.

I loved the cozy vibe and the close proximity to the beach at Gulf Beach Resort. Our room had well-decorated touches and a nice sitting area. The staff, especially Teresa at the front desk, stood out for their friendliness and helpfulness. The outdoor pool was fantastic, and I enjoyed having beach chairs and towels available. However, room variability is a real issue. We noticed some rooms looked outdated and in poor condition, making it tricky to know what to expect. The Wi-Fi wasn't very reliable either, which was quite frustrating during our stay. Despite these hiccups, the charm of the place and the cleanliness made for a solid vacation.
