A family-friendly hotel on the beach
With a convenient location right across the road from the beach; large apartment-style suites and studios complete with kitchens and patios; three pools, and a pet-friendly policy, Tortuga Beach Resort is a favorite among families. Rooms are scattered across the property in several low buildings surrounded by tropical plants and stone paths featuring koi ponds. The lobby is a cheerful, airy space located in one of the buildings off the first parking lot. It features beach-y decor with aquamarine accent walls, a long front desk decorated with marine motives, and paintings of local fauna. There's a small gift shop right off the lobby.
Location
Right across the street from a white-sand beach near restaurants and bars
The hotel is located on the island’s main drag, which connects Anna Maria to Bradenton, Longboat Key, and Sarasota. There is a long white-sand beach offering water sports and a dock located right across the road from the hotel. Restaurants, bars, and supermarkets can be found within a short walk or drive from the property. The international airport is a 25-minute drive from the hotel.
Rooms
Spacious, well-equipped apartment-style suites and studios
The property offers several room types ranging from standard hotel rooms with kitchenettes to two-bedroom apartments with full kitchens, patios or terraces, and water views. All feature similar decor, with wicker and rattan furniture, tropical prints, and tiled floors. Standard amenities include flat-screen or tube TVs, HBO and free Wi-Fi. Apartment-style units feature either one of two rooms; between one and three bathrooms, and fully equipped kitchens complete with dishwashers and washer/dryers. Some apartments and studios feature jetted tubs.
Features
Three heated pools, a small cafe, and nice freebies
While its proximity to the beach is the main attraction here, the hotel’s heated pools are always busy with children. Bayfront Villas share a small private pool and whirlpool with bay views. Those looking to take part in water sports have several options on the pretty white sand beach, complete with a dock. While most units have their own washer and dryer, there is also a laundry room available for hotel room guests. Freebies, such as Wi-Fi; parking; HBO, and beach chairs, toys, towels and umbrellas add value. Le Petit Cafe serves breakfast items and snacks.
