Sarasota just has the beauty and the beaches and the friendly people that Tampa doesn't have. |

For what you are looking for I agree with the majority, Sarasota especially Siesta Key...it is BEAUTIFUL. I despise Miami though. Everyone has their own idea of a beach vacation some want clubs/bars with beaches and some want more relaxation and quiet, and some others want a mix. You can always drive up to St. Pete for Dali if you want.
I think the beaches in the Sarasota area cannot be beat (besides Hawai'i ) |
