Hyatt Regency Sarasota

Fresh from a $22-million renovation, Hyatt Regency Sarasota boasts a brand new look inspired by the bright and airy designs of Lilly Pulitzer. The fresh new Floridian-chic decor unites everything at the hotel, from the 294 guest rooms and suites to the grand Sarasota Ballroom, over-water Boathouse event space, and Tropic Room with floor-to-ceiling views of the lagoon-style pool and 32-slip marina.

The resortlike setting fronts Sarasota Bay at the heart of downtown Sarasota, Florida, steps from the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and the Municipal Auditorium—which add a 1,761-seat theater and 10,000 square feet of exhibit floor to the hotel's 20,000 square feet of meeting space. Leisure options start with the pool, fitness center, Currents restaurant and bar, and a 92-foot luxury yacht available for hospitality at sea.
