Ameniti Bay, BW Signature Collection Hotel, Sarasota

My husband and I had just spent 14 days at the BW Hibiscus in Key West which was a pleasure. We wanted to spend a few days in Sarasota for some shopping and good restaurants before heading back to Pennsylvania. St. Armand's Circle is the place for that and the beach is wonderful. We first booked at the BW Siesta Key. I will not be reviewing them. Just don't go. Even if you're Platinum BW Member, you don't rate. Thank heavens for the BW Corporate Office's that hooked us up with this new Signature Series of BW Hotels. Rooms, a 10, staff, a 10. Breakfast I give a 20. Rooms were impeccably clean. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was a custom breakfast cooked and served by wonderful staff. When we make our way past here again I will definitely stay here again. I do have some suggestions for this new hotel. The rooms are large enough that a small dresser will fit, I had a wonderful balcony but no where to sit or a small table to put my coffee in the morning and lastly, the pool needs some umbrella's for shade.

My husband and I stayed at Ameniti Bay in Sarasota for a week and loved it! The hotel is modern and clean, our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Then there is the exceptional breakfast!! They serve a full, hot, complimentary breakfast every morning including made to order eggs and omelettes. The dining staff is amazing! From check-in to check-out, our entire stay was enjoyable! If you are looking for a wonderful place to stay in Sarasota, this is it!

Newly redone, very clean, best breakfast ever during Covid with made to order omelets and eggs, staff was extremely pleasant and my best part was a small balcony so I could go outside and enjoy the weather.

My husband, son and I spent a week at the Ameniti Hotel in Sarasota. It is located just down the road from Interstate 75 which made it very convenient. It was a very clean, quiet and nice looking hotel. The hotel staff were polite, friendly and eager to help with anything we needed. Breakfast was made to order and included eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, potatoes, smoked salmon, fresh fruit, yogurt, waffles and French toast, coffee, fresh squeezed orange and grapefruit juice. The cooks were friendly and did a great job. The pool was heated and very spacious. I would highly recommend this hotel

Look no further! I spent several months researching hotels and I found a diamond in the ruff when my husband and I stayed at this one for our 30th wedding anniversary. We stayed in a one bedroom which was so comfortable for staying long term. It's a beautiful hotel and extremely clean. The home made omelets are out of this world! The breakfast choices are amazing and the location is perfect for traveling different directions because its easy on and off to the highway. The pool area is beautiful and clean. (You do have to listen to traffic though because the pool is close to the busy road). They were extremely accommodating to my allergies, as well, which I so much appreciate! We will definitely stay here again! Thank you Ameniti Bay! We will see you next year!

Ameniti Bay Sarasota really delivered as a clean, new, well equipped place to stay in the Sarasota area. The breakfast was the very best that I have ever had included at a hotel. They had an omelet station, meats, fruit, even salmon and bagels. For Valentine's Day they had chocolate dipped croissants. We used the pool and it was very large and nice. Best of all the service was spot on! If you don't have to be right in Siesta, give it a try!

Thank you for such a great review. We recently just added our made to order eggs and omelet station. We feel that our guest deserves the best. We're so happy you enjoyed it so much. We want all of our guest to be able to leave this hotel and being excited about coming back on their next visit and bringing friends and family with them to share the same experience.

Sarasota hotel is top notch. Breakfast, service, cleanliness were that of a 5 star resort. You can't go wrong staying at Ameniti Bay. We will definitely be back to Sarasota and will not stay anywhere else but there. Thank you

We are so pleased to know that you had such an exceptional Ameniti Bay experience! We are so happy you enjoyed our new made to order eggs and omelet station, we take pride in making sure every guest has a memorable experience . Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your comments.

check in and out was seamless. Room had plenty of room and seating plus the breakfast more than exceeded my expectations. everyone we met was more than friendly. and price was very reasonable for area. Only thing we didn't care for is the drivers of Florida. - they are crazy but not the hotels fault.

We spent 4 nights here and it was, by far, the best hotel of our trip. Clean throughout, large rooms, very comfortable beds, wonderful staff, made to order hot breakfast, daily housekeeping all at a reasonable rate. We loved every minute of it.

I can't say enough about this hotel. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast buffet was freshly cooked to order with a variety of options. My room was modern with a beautiful view and the bed was so comfortable. On top of all that, the entire hotel was clean. There is no doubt I will stay there my next visit to Sarasota. Thanks for making my stay enjoyable!

Excellent in every way! Staff is incredibly warm and friendly, the hot breakfast is over the top with delicious choices. Servers are excellent and polite. Beds are so comfy, rooms spacious and lovely. Great location. Everything about this hotel speaks of excellence! We'll be back!

I don't even know where to begin on rating this hotel. All I know is this is by far the BEST hotel I have EVER stayed at. Not only is it quiet, Or that the bed sleeps wonders, or that the shower is oh, so therapeutic. But there is nothing cheap about this hotel! The shampoo, conditioner, and lotion are from Bath & Body works and its a strange coincidence that I just so happen to have brought the same scent (at the Beach) body spray. The coffee in the rooms are Donut Shop. Breakfast is absolutely phenomenal. Its at least worth $10 alone with a made- to-order omelet, Smoked Salmon, Sausage & Bacon, potatoes, a make your own parfait, fresh fruit, Waffles, Grapejuice, Orange Juice, Sweet Tea, and Coffee with all the right compliments. The pool is a walk in pool (no steps) and is so refreshing. The decor around it is beautiful with plenty of places to sit and catch some sun. These are just a few things that amazed me. The staff, on the other hand, really know the ropes on superior customer service. I've never felt so welcomed! There is a young guy at the front desk at night that went out of his way to find me a razor. Without any hesitation, he went to the hotel next door to look for one. The girls at the desk are so friendly, always smiling and telling you to have a good day. 1 girl in particular asked me how the pool was. They really genuinely care about their guests. Also, Toni at the breakfast bar is fantastic. I dont know if 5 stars is even appropriate for this hotel because Id give this place a 10, easily. Thank you all & I look forward to staying here again!

Many positive things experienced with hotel stay: Soft beds, excellent breakfast with egg omelets and fruit choices. Outside pool - large, clean, and warm water. Staff very pleasant and COVID practices adequate. Was to have stayed 4 days then 4 days elsewhere. However, stayed all 8 days at Ameniti Bay for a positive experience. Thank you. Will be back.

I Work all over the country, and frequently stay in hotels. The staff at Sarasota's Ameniti Bay is absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to accommodate my team the first time I stayed with them, and have earned my business repeatedly ever since. I didn't think it could get any nicer until my last trip, just after their remodel. It is stunning! Definitely my go to when in Florida!

We stayed here for one night and we were very impressed! It is a newer hotel only about 20 minutes to Siesta Key. The beds were comfortable and the room was cozy. The employees were so friendly and helpful. These 4 stood out... LJ and Joe at the front desk, and Karen and Jason at Breakfast. The entire staff made us all feel safe during this pandemic. There was sanitizer, wet naps, and social distancing in place. Free Breakfast was still available, but instead of the guests getting the food, the Breakfast attendants served us. It was lovely. They even make Belgium waffles! There is 24 hour access to coffee, tea, and juice! The pool here is so fun and big! Our family had alot of fun!
