We were married at the Hilton this summer. It was a destination wedding and the Hilton was so accommodating of us and all of the guests that stayed there. Lauren in catering was particularly helpful and made the experience everything we hoped it would be. Rooms were very comfortable. The food was EXCELLENT! I would recommend this hotel for a... more

We have stayed at the Hilton Longboat Key Beachfront Resort some 15 times over the past 12 years. Despite mixed experiences during renovations and management changes (for the better) it has remained one of our favorite destinations and we already look forward to our next visit. With some trepidation, though. The Longboat Hilton feels small and relaxed even though it... more

Mixed bag!

A "girls weekend" outing, staying one night in the Sarasota area. Great location on the beach. We were upgraded to a suite, which was very nice. The bad news? 4:30 check in! We got there about 2:00, looking to see if the room was ready....it was not, but we we lead to believe that it would be "soon". We sat... more

The staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. The rooms were very clean but, needed an upgrade. They were good size and the staff, at no charge and with no provocation, upgraded us to a suite with two balconies one of which was an extended balcony with lounge chairs and upright chairs- very comfortable and convenient. The location... more

My family and I (wife and 3 teens) had a wonderful time at this hotel. I was a moderate sized waterfront hotel on a quiet barrier beach Island. Nice outdoor pool with hot tub. outdoor restaurant-bar next to pool was convenient. The beach was beautiful and you could walk for miles. We also visited Tampa Busch Gardens with a water... more

My husband and I had a wonderful time on our trip . We had been told by friends about this hotel and Longboat Key and decided to make it our vacation destination. Our travel agent messed up our accomadations but the friendly staff soon changed it for us without a problem. It was our anniversary and the hotel sent up... more

I stay in Hiltons all the time and this is not a Hilton. The only thing it has going for it is the beautiful beach. The employees of the hotel try hard, but the place has a bad vibe and a negative culture. The manager (hopefully he's gone by now) is defensive and rude. He stands around staring at people... more

After having read several other of the reviews on this site, I undertook this trip with some trepidation. I just arrived home rested and happy from what was a good trip. There was no doubt in my mind it was a Hilton. I am a Diamond Honors member, and received every perq I would expect from that rating even though... more

We recently spent 2 nights at this Hilton and I could not believe it was a Hilton! We asked for early check-in but nothing was ready when we arrived. Once we finally got into a room the sliding door was cracked badly and it would not lock - on the first floor! We immediately asked to be moved and we... more

Thank you for your review. Although we do our best to honor all requests, an early check-in is not guaranteed. Our housekeeping staff does a great job getting rooms ready early, and it all depends on the specific room type you are waiting for. Also, with it being so hot out this summer you are correct in that the pool...
