The Meadows Map
A Location Surrounded by Fun
The Meadows location makes us unique – only minutes from world-class shopping – University Town Center Mall, or historic high-end St. Armands Circle. Culture, dining, beaches and entertainment surrounds you. With Sarasota attractions close by and the convenience of the community’s amenities, the fun of exploring and comfort of home makes for a myriad of lifestyle options.
Fun in the Sun
Sarasota’s Gulf Coast is a fun destination for visitors seeking relaxation in the sun. For those who call Sarasota home, it offers small-town charm in a metro setting with amenities often found only in larger cities. It is also known for its reputation as the “Arts and Culture Capital of the Southeast”.
Beaches on Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, Lido Key, Siesta Key, and Venice (known to beachcombers for prehistoric sharks’ teeth) in the Sarasota/Manatee area—often referred to as “Manasota”—provide nearby escapes to the region’s tropical paradise.
