Just visited a friend that is staying there. The room was clean and spacious. There was a nice pool and a cute tiki-hut style section with picnic tables to enjoy a nice outing with family and/or friends. I met and spoke with the owners and they were very pleasant and accommodating. Seems like more of a "long term stay" kind of place instead of a hotel for the night.

The room was not super clean at all. Non-smoking room with a disconnected smoke detector. When we arrived the television was non-functional. I had to find the problem myself, and was never followed up with as promised the next day. Overall the stay was mediocre. If you're on a fixed income and tight budget, the place is acceptable. 2 to 2 and 1/2 stars. By the way, if you're staying for more than one night the maid service is non-existent. But they do tell you that up front.

Sarasota Getaway is a truly splendid destination. Immaculately maintained and imbued with a refreshing ambiance, it offers a genuine taste of Florida's natural splendor. Beyond its own allure, it conveniently situates you within a five-minute drive to Venice, renowned as the world's shark tooth capital, and its stunning beaches.This prime location beckons visitors to unwind and savor their surroundings. The staff extends a level of hospitality that transcends mere service – they welcome you as if you were family. The accommodations are both inviting and comfortable, boasting efficient air conditioning to keep you cool and invigorating hot water showers. The decor thoughtfully encapsulates the essence of Florida.Don't merely take my word for it; experience Sarasota Getaway for yourself. I am confident that every moment spent here will be cherished, I highly recommend this exceptional retreat.

Booked a room to be safe through hurricane Idalia. The room was disgusting!!! King size bed propped up by bricks…. An oversized foam mattress with the sheets didn’t fit. Floor was disgusting, our feet were black…Like all the other reviews… run, don’t walk. A shame because it could be a gorgeous motel. Great location…. ?????

The saying you pay for what you get is VERY true when booking this motel. Upon arriving to the leasing office, a lady met us to give us our room. She was asking us what type of room we had, but a queen bedroom that we booked was unavailable. The things that happened next were unbelievable, this kind lady comes back and seems to be confused why we are in the room we are in, and puts us in a different room. THIS room...was 10 times worse. There was little flies all in your face, when showering there was little moths everywhere. There was a lizard in the room, we moved the fridge to capture the creature to expose dead animals and rodent feces.Once you get past all the bugs and filth, you lay in the bed and you immediately want to get out the sheets, dried blood and other body fluids stained onto the sheets and comforters. The second room we were put into had no lock on the door, so anyone and everyone that knows the code can enter the room, which seemed like to be EVERYONE there. I would not book again, or even think of entering the town of Venice again, from how gross the hotel room made me feel. If you care to take a dare to stay at this motel stay in the king room bring your own sheets and towels and some bleach and you might just survive one night.

Dirt bag hotel. Looks pretty from the website but not at all what you will receive. Beware!

If I could give no stars I would! The room was not clean at all! The top sheet was upside down and they smelled used! We slept on top of the bedding! Thank God there were no bed bugs ( the only positive) A used dirty q-tip on the bathroom floor was a nice touch! The TV had an alert from the cable company, so we had no TV to watch! I would run far away from this place if you're considering staying here!!!!Rooms: DISGUSTINGLY DIRTY!!!!

The motel operates under 'NOKOMIS GULF COAST INN'. However, there hasn't been an active business license for some time. When the city inspected the motel in April of this year, they found there were numerous violations.

I cannot even give this place one star in any category. No one was there to check us in. My husband finally called a number left on the door. The guy that answered (Dave) told him the room numbers d passcode. We were going to sit outside at a table and eat our Wendy’s. I went into the room to use the facilities. There were wet towels on the floor and someone had laid down on the bed. We called Dave back and told him. His response was “that room has been cleaned”. I then told him why I believe it hadn’t been cleaned. He said to give him 15 minutes and he was contacting the cleaners. He called back about a half hour later and said that the cleaners were a lunch. It was 4 o’clock in the afternoon. He asked if we wanted a refund. I answered, YES! There is a reason this motel has a non refundable rule.RUN! DON’T WALK!

Our original room had not been cleaned. Our second room had stains on the bedding; mold on the shower curtain; threadbare towels; no soap and gaps in the door. This is a basic motel room worth about $50/night.

It’s really horrible place! The floor is filthy, toilet is broken and we can’t use it. The towels haven’t been washed from previous guests. The table has been very dirty. The fridge nobody has cleaned! It has stains from liquids. That place is constantly non recommended!

The first issue is the name, could not find the place initially because the sign is Nokomos Inn. Upon check in we were given the wrong room which had people in it.Got our actual room which was not clean at all. The shower curtain had mold on it and the shower soap was used. The fan in the bathroom sounded like it was going to fall out of the ceiling at any moment and the single light bulb hanging was a nice touch.The photos used are dated and the rooms have not been kept up. Thank goodness for travel insurance we were able to get our money back and find a decent hotel. Would not recommend to anyone.

The room was so cute, however a few things needed to be adjusted and for a suite I was confused with having multiple butter knives, 1 spoon and not one fork for use with two random plates which was minor to me. The Florida chill vibe was special for me summertime colors and the center area turned into a sandy,tiki hut, hammock by the poolside helped to make you feel at the beach without all the noise!. I would definitely return again !

The pictures do not reflect the state of all rooms. The first warning about the property is that the name on the sign is not “My Sarasota Getaway”. The second was that no one was on site to check you in. Instead you were greeted by men listening to old country music under the “tiki hut” drinking beer. The fan in the room was extremely noisy and would wake the neighbors. The hotel is much more dated and run down than the pictures portray.
