Azul Resort Siesta Key
Beautiful place. Check out is at 10 - a bit early. I asked to stay a couple hours in the parking spot so we could go to the beach. It was affirmative and we left 2 hours later, which is the time that was relayed. Then I was charged $11.25. That was not relayed that there would be a charge.

Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway
We did not like how when you walk into your room your beds are right there. Like going into a motel room. Water pressure was not good. Took a while to get hot water. TV kept going in & out and freezing up.
