Hotels near Fun and More Rentals, Holmes Beach

The resort was conveniently located on the beach and the decor was nice. We stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms. The bar tenders and most of the staff was very friendly. There was one front desk girl with painted on eyebrows that was not so much. The electrical and equipment/fixtures were another story. The first night was like we were staying in a low budget hotel, and nothing really changed. We arrived late for check in. There was no hot water in any of the facets in our suite and no water pressure in the bathroom sink facet. The lighting fixtures above the nightstands in the bedroom would turn off and on at random times a couple times an hour. The ceiling fan in the bedroom was broken and had a mind of its own. It would speed up and slow down on its own. When it sped up too much the thing would rattle and shake and make noise during the night. The fan would also stop all the way on its own and reverse directions. Then the AC/Cooling system on the roof would turn on and vibrate and hum in our room off and on all night. Not peaceful at all! It was like we were staying in a haunted low budget hotel. When I woke up in the morning (if I slept), my phone was dead even though I had it plugged into the convenient phone charger on the nightstand. I brought these issues up to the front desk the next morning and they sent maintenance staff up to our room. The breaker was tripped on the hot water tank, so that was resolved, and we had no more problems with water temp. The phone charger on the nightstand was not plugged in behind the nightstand and this was fixed. We were told: All of the bathroom sinks had the same facet and no water pressure. There was nothing he could do about it. The lights above the nightstand had some sort of sensor that he could not adjust. After he left, I tried waving my hand around to activate this sensor and the lights never responded to my action but would still turn off and on at random times a couple times an hour. He also said he did not have an answer for the fan or had no control over the noise level of the AC/Cooling system on the roof. We stayed there 4 nights with blinking lights and a haunted fan in the bedroom and had to put up with the noisy AC/Cooling system. Worst (4) nights of sleep in my life. I also received a $75.00 parking citation for parking the golf cart the wrong direction in the parking lot, which was a dead end. I was told I could park there by the front desk, but never told I had to be facing a certain direction. Love the Florida beaches, but will stay elsewhere next time.

As Ambassador Elite, we have had the opportunity to stay at many Marriott properties. This was our first stay here and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel is located right on a large marina with beautiful views. The suite was spacious, very clean, and bright. There is a restaurant on-site, Oak & Barrel, which has a great Reuben. There is a rooftop pool (small, but large enough to do laps). There is also a very busy roof top bar and restaurant - part of the Oak & Barrel. The fitness center has sufficient equipment, but could use a stationary bike. Parking is free at an indoor garage, very close to the hotel. Of great importance to us is the very professional and welcoming associates/staff. We experienced outstanding service at every level, with special thanks to Nikki, as well as to Kira and Armando. We are looking forward to our return visit in 2023 !!!!

While this is an older hotel, (paint on paint) we found the location was great, on the water walk, great pool and hot tube. Staff could not be any more pleasant and accommodating. We used the suite with two adults and 3 children. Sofa bed not bad (its a sofa bed). two queen were comfortable. We loved it.

Booked this hotel for a quick overnight stay. The price was reasonable compared to other hotels in close proximity. We normally stay at a bit nicer hotel but took a chance on this one based on the many great reviews. Pros Extremely nice check in staff Convenient to airport and highway Nice heated pool Cute tiki bar area Room was clean and newly painted spacious Bathroom was clean although tub was old Bed comfort was ok Couch in room Small kitchenette for longer stays Elevator available Free parking Cons Room has old carpet smells musty Tub is old and worn Furniture is worn and tired Noisy street and planes Humidifier in room was full and noisy The musty smell would prohibit me from staying here again. They started updates they may want to consider removing the carpet next. Otherwise it wasn’t bad for a quick stay.

We checked in early, and were immediately accommodated. Every staff member we met was was friendly and eager to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Room was clean and comfortable. Pool, spa, outdoor patio were clean and enjoyable. Fitness room looked well-provisioned. Breakfast ws fantastic and staff was friendly and helpful as well.

After staying at hotels around the same price for a few days that were dirty and roach infested, surestay was a breath of fresh air! The Sarasota location on north tamiami is extremely clean and well kept. Sandra at the front desk was extremely helpful and so nice! For the low price this hotel is a hidden gem!
