Review of Sarasota, Florida


Sarasota is Paradise!
Star Rating - 8/21/2019
Sarasota is paradise! We live in downtown Sarasota and walk almost everywhere. Within a 20 minute walking distance we access numerous delicious restaurants, 10 live performance theaters (Florida Studio Theater has 5 separate venues) and two movie theaters. Many of the restaurants have live music. The parks on Sarasota Bay provide beautiful opportunities to relax, exercise, walk the dog, paint, and more. Sarasota's commitment to the arts results in a year round schedule of festivals with artists from around the world expanding our horizons. I strongly recommend Sarasota for active people.

I would like to see a follow-up review since the dynamics have changed since covid and the wave of people from the Northeast and West Coast.

No offense but do you live here year round? because if you do then you cannot walk your dogs its too hot their paws burn off the pavement in summer ..also you cant bring your pets to any parks or the beach unless you travel to a designated paw park or beach which is far far away and you cannot do out door activities as the humidity is going to kill even a healthy person...yes sarasota is beautiful and I have lived on Siesta Key I have had beautiful homes with large beautiful pools and I can go anywhere here but even I cant take the snowbird city anymore so we are leaving for a place to live where the average age is not 68 to 90...
