Top hotels in Ilexhurst

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota
Staff was very welcoming, we only stayed one night. The rooms can use some new paint on the walls and cleaner bathrooms but I liked the room it is very vintage and I also liked the soundproofing cause the hotel was packed with guests and usually you can hear everyone going and coming out the rooms ...

Island Grand at TradeWinds
The pool was so crowded we could not get a seat. MANY children screaming. It was a bit too much! it was a great spot for the whole family. It was just my husband and I.

Compass Hotel by Margaritaville Anna Maria Sound
The location is perfect if you’re planning on the beach. It’s about a mile away if you want a cheap Uber or a great walk over the bridge if you like walking. Hotel has a great view of the water. Total win

SkyBeach Resort
Great first time visit. Restaurants and staff were great! The Cold Fashion coffee drink was my favorite! Pools looked nice except no umbrellas for the loungers. We loved the beach/ water area! Would come back.
