For a family, Embassy Suites has suites with ocean views and a fabulous pool, yet some local street construction is going on now, so ask for an upper floor.

Art Ovation is also nice w/o kids. Art O has a roof top pool.

I always stay on the Sarasota city side and Uber to beaches.

You are better off with AirBNB or Vrbo for Siesta Key. There are loads and loads of beach rentals that are walkable to the beach. The hotel options are virtually nonexistent. We go to Siesta two or three times a year. Here are some other things in the area you should check out:

- Columbia - St Armands Circle
-Millie’s for breakfast - Sarasota
- Dry Dock Grill - dinner or lunch
- University Town City Mall (UTC) for shopping if you get stuck with rainy weather

Enjoy! We love Siesta and in the village on the key check for farmers market with fresh produce on the weekends.
