Tribute Portfolio Hotel The Sarasota Modern | Sarasota/Bradenton, Sarasota | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Sarasota/Bradenton, Sarasota

4 stars

With just 89 rooms this is a beautifully intimate hotel, but it still gives you a host of room types to choose from, a range of activities to enjoy, and each access to both the centre of Sarasota and beaches on the Gulf of Mexico. So basically, you can have a bit of everything - no matter what you're after! Set in the arts district, you'll find the hotel a bit of an urban oasis. When you're enjoying food, drinks, games and a splash on the pool deck, you'd forget that you're in the heart of the city. But be sure to make use of the complimentary bicycles and explore the restaurants, art galleries, bars and shops that Sarasota has to offer. And it's definitely worth a trip to Lido Beach too, it's less than 10 minutes away so you can enjoy the unspoilt sand and glorious views across the ocean. Back at the hotel the Wink Wink Modern Lounge and Pool Bar are great places to enjoy a bite to eat, relax with a board game, or enjoy a nightcap - and the weekend brunch is a must if you're around too!

“Spacious and suitable, but may need some spiffing”

Oct 04, 2025Kim and Jim B

This is a very well designed hotel. The rooms are spacious and the banquet seating made lounging and having places to sit and use for luggage very easy. The bathroom had only a single sink, but it was large for the area, and the shower was excellent no leakage whatsoever with a walk in without a door. Since this is a pool/waterfront-ish hotel, there should be more hooks on the walls for towels, and there were plenty of wall space for them. We had to ask for towels very often, and the number of towels should reflect its location. The room is spacious, the balcony very accessible with large palm trees, providing privacy over the pool area. The beds might need a firmer upgrade or at least have the option for a firm mattress. The pool area was spectacular divided up into three zones among a lap pool, a large, hot tub and cold plunge pool, which was extremely refreshing. Bar service was great and you can get the inventive menu at the pool. It really is a nice location, however, very quiet in the rosemary neighborhood with the arts Café nearby and other shops and restaurants.

“NOT RECOMMENDED”

Aug 10, 2025Neal C

Our experience had nothing particularly good and nothing seriously bad, in short, The Modern is blah. Check in was slow - one desk person who was extremely unskilled in using her laptop. As she struggled, the line kept growing and people became impatient. Finally, in completing the check in, we were informed that we were upgraded to the room we actually selected and were paying for. Desk attendant had nothing to say. Room (a deluxe king junior suite) was OK, but furniture is aging and needs a refresh. Bathroom sink was chipped and shower had rust at its threshold. Most significantly, in what was probably "value engineering" the room had one air-conditioning inflow - in the ceiling in the sitting area and the cool air in a HOT climate did not get to the sleeping area. Further, in what was probably an effort in "energy conservation" the room got extremely hot in the middle of the night. We guess that there was a programmed cur back in cooling to save energy a/k/a money.

Bad experience - zero customer service . Front desk : Waiting for check-in the room . Pool not clean . Food is not good . No professional. Expensive for what is it.
