*St Armand's Circle is open to the public and we are finished repairing some flood damage after being hit by both hurricanes Helene and Milton - it was only to the lower downstairs hallway to the Beachy Speakeasy. The unit itself, did NOT get water inside as it is up 2 small flights of stairs. We replaced the washer and dryer, so those are brand New now! As of 12/16/24, the barrier islands are open like Siesta Key, Lido Key, etc. Many of St Armand's Circle's restaurants have opened and some of the shops. Water quality at the beaches is good too! Sarasota and Bradenton plus surrounding areas on the mainland are open and you can enjoy everything like restaurants and shopping. Downtown Sarasota is vibrant and businesses are staying busy!
