Many couples who attend Together Forever workshops take advantage of our beautiful city and beaches to create a weekend retreat. They focus totally on their relationship, spending time alone to relax, see the sights and enjoy the gift of love. Their example inspired us to create this lodging page to encourage other couples to do the same.
Sarasota is a popular vacation spot, honeymoon venue and destination wedding location. If you’re coming here for one of our workshops, add an extra day to enjoy yourselves, renew your romance and start using your new skills. If you live in the area, get away from the every day and focus totally on each other.

Island Resorts
Sarasota has several barrier islands — Siesta Key, Lido Key and Longboat Key — each with its own unique character and amenities.
Sarasota Florida Beaches (Best Rated in
The US)
When people think of Florida, they often picture white-sand
beaches where families build sandcastles and memories. Check out
the award-winning Siesta Key Beach which is consistently rated
as a top 10 beach in the USA. And lets not forget the
world-famous sand. Its the softest sand imaginable... You simply
have to feel it to believe it. When it comes to beaches,
Sarasota and her Islands are as diverse as it gets.
Siesta Key
Recognized for “best sand” in a national survey, Siesta Key’s beaches feature white, fine, quartz sand that never burns your feet. Have fun jet skiing, parasailing, swimming or sunbathing. We recommend the
Palm Bay Club (visit
www.palmbayclub.com). For the best clam chowder in the world, be sure and visit Captain Kurt’s Restaurant.
Lido Beach
Lido Key’s beaches are located just minutes from St. Armand’s
Circle, a world-renowned shopping destination. Explore the unspoiled North Lido
Beach, where you can picnic under the Australian pines or anchor a boat along
the shore.
Longboat Key
Longboat Key’s narrow beaches stretch some 12 miles from one tip of the island to the other. Out of the way, out of the ordinary and easily accessible, Longboat Key’s beaches offer a relaxed, quiet and secluded island paradise experience. We recommend The
Colony Beach Resort for fine dining and entertainment (visit
www.colonybeachresort.com).
