"Loved our studio next to Burns Court in Sarasota! Very comfortable bed and all the other items we needed--frig., microwave, coffee machine, toaster, and even a cooking pan on a hotplate. Dishes, etc. were ample. LOVED the view of the 1920s mural straight across from our windows of a local street scene from that era. This location was great location for us to walk around all the central areas of Sarasota. We would book there again. R&J --Philadelphia"

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed at Golden Host host several different times prior to the pandemic lockdown. It was always a very good motel with a helpful staff. This current stay at the motel was my first time in 7 years. And Golden Host has improved in every way...the updated rooms with delightful art deco refrigerator and microwave, very comfortable bedding, a large flat screen television, a major facelift to the lobby, the pool and the patio tables and chairs, and a staff that is there for all your needs. Also, the Bahi Hut bar is as good as ever...and now has the addition of a night of karaoke, two nights of live music and an evening of drag bingo...all delightful! My compliments to the manager, Katrina, and the rest of the dedicated and caring staff. Thank you!"
