Gulf-inspired wellness at every turn

VERIFIED LUXURY

Learn How We Inspect

Set along the marina of Sarasota Bay, The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Sarasota brings a tranquil dose of refinement to Florida’s Gulf Coast. This spa sanctuary within a resort sanctuary merges the calming rhythm of the sea with modern, coastal vibes. As soon as you step through its double doors, artful design elements hint at the broader region’s underwater wonders. There are subtle nods to gulf landscapes, a mix of deep grays and soft tans and saltwater tide-resemblant touches, perhaps best embodied by its centerpiece golden wave chandelier. The ambiance is polished but not fussy in the 17 treatment rooms, offering a welcoming blend of sophistication and Florida warmth.

Whether visiting for a restorative massage or a full day of pampering, the spa delivers a thoughtfully curated wellness experience. A spacious fitness center, serene relaxation terrace and an impressive range of treatments allow for complete immersion. The result is a destination spa that feels both indulgent and rooted in the natural beauty of Sarasota.
