We hadn't been back to the great Sarasota B & B, The Cypress, in a couple of years. Well, despite something that was beyond their control (loud construction on the water mains across the street, outside our room), our stay was delightful. When we first walked in we received a warm welcome form Vicki and Robert, and Vicki apologized for... More

We've been coming to Sarasota every year for the past decade, and only found The Cypress now. We've been missing out. Beautifully decorated with a prime location, gracious hosts, and a fabulous breakfast. Atmosphere was friendly, gracious, romantic and fun. We will be back. Thank you Vicki, Nina and Robert.

My husband and I have always enjoyed staying at B&B's, but we can't do it as often as we like since we travel so much with our children. The Cypress for our first trip away in a long time and it was perfect in part because of the Cypress. The hosts are wonderful, the cocktail hour is perfect to sit... More

Cocktails are on the beautiful front porch in the evening. There... More

The Cypress is a magical spot nestled in among high rise condos. Once you enter the property you enter a serene tropical home away from home. The clean and well appointed rooms are comfortable and cosy. The sheets are so soft and fresh that I bought a set available in the gift area. Breakfast is a delight. Everything is fresh... More

We visited this lovely inn last weekend while celebrating our 32nd anniversary.The inn is perfectly located, overlooking the bay and an easy walk to downtown and the gardens. Upon arrival we were made to feel very welcome by our wonderful hostess Vickie. She helped us unload, gave us cookies, showed us to our very clean and comfortable room and invited... More

We had a marvelous time. The inn is adorable and the owners couldn't have been more accommodating. There is classical music playing in the background which fit right in with our plans to visit the terrific Sarasota Opera for two nights. There is also a retro movie theater nearby which plays all sorts of art movies that are difficult to... More
