Bayou Oaks Hotels, Sarasota

"We were very happy with everything. The only thing was that I wished our room had a coffee maker and microwave. "

"Very comfy and relaxing stay. Staff were awesome "

"Loved the serenity the minimalist decor creates. The wide halls provided a sense of space that add to the ambiance. The beautiful photographs of Amish living were wonderful to view. Extremely clean and neat also added to my enjoyment. Slept very well since it was so peaceful and quiet. I would have wished for an impressive breakfast that lived up to the high standards set by the hotel. That ideal breakfast would have included plentiful natural organic fruits, whole grain cereals, in essence a celebration of the bounty of nature. Unfortunately it was not that. I was disappointed by lack of quality. The restaurant in the complex was also a disappointment. The quality of ingredients was not there. Our meals were returned uneaten. But the hotel was definitely a wonderful experience. "

"Short walk to beach, rooms very clean and well maintained. Nice pool."

"This is a large hotel with a small area for breakfast access. The hot food is done well. Some of the other choices need improvement. Lines were long. "

"Great stay just as proposed"

"The hotel is located around 50 yards from a major highway so be sure to get a room in the rear of the hotel."

"Did not correctly honor prepaid reservation. They said they would refund reservation but I havent seen it "

"The pool was enjoyable. The resort had undergone some remodeling that I think needs a little more attention. The door to the room had gaps at the bottom, so noise traveled into the room. It does not have a complimentary breakfast. They need to invest in more cooking equipment because the food was not cooked completely. The Tiki bar was awesome, and the activities (live music and bingo) were a blast for our party of friends. I will definitely stay here again, but I do hope some adjustments will be made."
