Sarasota

Sarasota overview:

Sarasota is located just south of the famous 'Sunshine Skyway Bridge' and its beauty will grab your attention at first sight. If you first see Sarasota from the air you'll notice the beautiful blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay lapping the brilliant white sand of Longboat, Lido, and Siesta beaches. On land you will be greeted by a profusion of colour from modern buildings mingling with traditional homes glinting in the Florida sunshine and flowers that bloom throughout the year; to the green hues of the lush surrounding vegetation.

Originally, Sarasota was the winter home to the Ringling Brothers' Circus. John Ringling had a tremendous passion for the arts and, with his enormous wealth, he laid the foundations for a Florida city of culture and sophistication.

Sarasota has the best Florida beaches:

Sarasota beaches are some of the finest beaches in the world; with a choice of stylish resort living or relaxed village atmospheres; superb dining, wonderful shopping and lots to see and do on many Florida holidays.

Sarasota Florida Villas:

Sarasota is now home to a variety of architecture, with some of the oldest and newest homes in the area. In Sarasota you can see the lavender seashell-design Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and the mansion built by circus magnate John Ringling. Some homes in Sarasota were built in the mid 1950s as winter Florida holiday villas. Villas in Florida are generally spacious and airy, and the villas in Sarasota are no exception. Newer buildings, condos and villas with pools are on gated bay front estates with spectacular views, beautifully manicured lawns and opulent entrance foyers - all featuring the latest must have technology.
