Welcome to Sarasota, Florida, a vacation home paradise. Appropriately referred to as "Florida's Cultural Coast," Sarasota has a rich, artistic and cultural heritage, but is equally known for its world-famous white sand beaches, azure blue waters and spectacular weather conditions year-round.

Here, big city sophistication meets intimate beach town; a laid-back, casual atmosphere (it's a locally known reality that you can go just about anywhere in your flip flops!), Sarasota is the perfect place for your vacation home rental or RV oasis. Sun n Fun is in close proximity to all that makes Sarasota the prime vacation destination that it is. You'll find an endless array of activities, attractions, restaurants, and shopping sure to please any first-time visitor or the returning "regular."

There is so much to see and do in the Sarasota area - both indoors and out: Get a glimpse of history in one of the local museums, explore master works of art in the galleries, browse through specialty shops, meander your way through lush gardens, cohabitate with Florida's wildlife in our parks and pristine waterways, canoe through mangrove tunnels, get an under water view at the marine aquarium, catch a show at one of the many performing arts venues, dine on a bay front cruise – or just dig your feet in the sand and sit back to watch the breath-taking sunset color the sky over the Gulf of Mexico – all within minutes from your Sun n Fun vacation home or RV. Oh, and don't forget to hit the links while you're here in the golf capital of the world!

Please your palate with Sarasota's extensive culinary selection varying in cuisine and atmosphere. From bamboo bar beach shacks to downtown elegance, you can find something to suit everyone's taste. Savor fresh seafood or grab a burger at beachside. Italian, Chinese, Mexican, American, you name it…the many tastes of Sarasota please every type of connoisseur.

Shopping is no different - the shopping in Sarasota is as diverse as its shoppers. From small boutiques to large department stores, whether you are looking to buy necessities or the perfect souvenir you've got a lot of great choices. You will find unique gifts and clothing reflecting local area artists to those must-have mainstream trends. Art galleries, upscale shops and specialty stores can be found around Sarasota in places like St. Armands Circle, Towles Court and Downtown. For the action-seeking shoppers, department stores and outlet malls are close by. Sarasota is also known for its antique shops - a collector's dream. Even if you don't come to buy, it's fun to look!

Another one of the great things about where Sun n Fun is located is that so much of what people from around the country and all over the world come to Florida to see and do is within driving distance from your vacation home, vacation rental or RV. While Sarasota leaves people wanting for nothing, some vacationers take the opportunity to embark on day trips to Orlando, Tampa, St. Petersburg and Ft. Myers to visit theme parks, museums, and other well-known attractions that Florida is famous for.

So, indulge all the senses and soak in all that Sarasota and the surrounding areas have to offer, because while your on your Florida vacation at Sun n Fun, Sarasota's offerings are in your 'backyard' for you to relax, have fun, explore...
