I checked in and the girl was very nice and accommodating. The I drove around to my room. When you drive up to your room and park outside of it you think, Oh not so nice. Then you walk into your lovely room. The room leads to a beautiful courtyard. All of the rooms are around the courtyard which has the pool. We had 5 rooms between us for a friend getaway. We had everything we needed. We had a fabulous time. We only left to go to the grocery store and to go to the beach. I was truly an unforgettable weekend. The staff was so friendly and kind. The restaurant was delicious. We will definitely be coming back.

After staying several times, the management has been become argumentative. Extra fees tacked on when I paid cash. And now a $50 of cleaning fee for my cat's hair. I stayed at a motel after theirs no cat problem. Problem is with management wanting $50 additional for an unrealistic cause.

The place is nice. But management is not good. Indian male telling me that I have to pay a $50 cleaning fee from my cat. I lint rolled the bed comforter. There was very little trace of hair left. I stayed at another property after that and the cleaning staff reported room clean on checkout. The cleaning lady at Island Sun is grabbing money for herself.

The outside doors were all filthy, that's the first thing that you look at. Our door handle was about ready to fall off. The bathroom was tiny, but the tub had water underneath it, and it was all sloshy and hard to feel stable on to stand and take a shower. The area was close to everything, the pool and inside corridor were clean. The restaurant onsite was good.

Staff are always helpful and cheerful. I stay here often. The landscaping and pool are beautiful. It is quaint with French doors that open out into a tropical oasis with pool. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. In my room, I have a mini-fridge with freezer and a microwave. I love driving to Whole Foods in Sarasota and filling up my fridge with my favorites.

Not much to say. Old property partially updated. Nothing to brag about. But the price was right and the room was clean and bed comfortable. Bathroom was also somewhat updated and clean. Overall a good value vs the chain hotels. To be clear this was a motel. So don't expect much in the way of ambiance! Still, I would prob stay there again! The on-site bistro was the best part of the whole experience. Top notch hole in the wall local spot!
