One night stay before flying home.
Pros:

Great location , close to downtown restaurants. Nice room. The swimming pool was good on the 19th floor, plenty of pool towels. A great feature is the bar upstairs adjacent to the pool with fantastic views.

Requested a late checkout & agreed.

Front desk staff very good , chatty & pleasant.

Cons:

The breakfast service was slow, took ages for the food to come & missing some items. Which I pointed out but then provided. The selection not as good as other Westins. Our server disappeared for a while, presumed on a break. Had to request coffee top ups a few times with out being offered.

Our room was at the end of the floor. As we entered spotted a swimsuit outside the sealed window & some rubbish. Must have been dropped from a balcony or the rooftop pool. Cleaning staff should have noticed.

Justin at the Pool
Pros:

We spent 1 night at the Westin ahead of our friends bachelorette trip on Siesta Key and majority of our time was at the pool where Justin took the best care of us! He set us up with towels, an umbrella and constant attention! Thank you for the care and attention, Justin!

Amazing and perfect stay! 10/10
Pros:

I just recently stayed here with my family and friends for 3 nights. We had an amazing experience, starting right with the valet and check in with a special shoutout to Maria Andersen for making us feel welcome and gave us amazing treatment! Valet easily took our rental car, we got upgraded rooms and goodies sent up to our room after arrival! The rooftop pool was beautiful and we loved spending time there at night especially during sunset, and the food at breakfast was delicious with amazing service! The atmosphere was very luxurious, clean, and kind! The noise level was extremely low and we never got disturbed in our room or at night. The value of the room matched the amenities and prices, and this is the first hotel we will be booking when staying in Sarasota again! The location and perfect and has a perfect walk to downtown which we always walked to in the morning for pilates and coffee! 10/10 recommend!!

Exceptional Service and a Wonderful Stay
Pros:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had an amazing stay at The Westin Sarasota! A special thank you to María Andersen and Valeria Bracho at the front desk for their exceptional hospitality, kindness, and professionalism. They made us feel truly welcome from the moment we arrived.

The room was spotless and very comfortable, and every area of the hotel—from the rooftop pool to the restaurant—was beautifully maintained. Everything exceeded our expectations.

Highly recommend this hotel, and we can’t wait to come back!

Creo que esta versión se siente muy auténtica, menciona por nombre a María y Valeria (algo que suele valorar mucho la gerencia del hotel) y destaca tanto el servicio como las instalaciones sin ser demasiado larga.
