Getting here

Almost everyone flies down from Minneapolis–St. Paul. Here's the playbook we give everyone — and we'll pick you up from either airport.

In season · Oct–Apr

MSP → SRQ, nonstop

Starting in October there's a direct seasonal flight from the Twin Cities to Sarasota–Bradenton (SRQ) — about 3½ hours in the air and only ~15 minutes from our door. Book early: the nonstop fills up fast in winter.

Off season · May–Sep

MSP → TPA, nonstop

When the SRQ nonstop pauses for summer, fly into Tampa (TPA) — usually cheaper and nonstop year-round — then it's a scenic ~1¼ hour drive south to Palma Sola.

Check live fares

Pick your date and we'll open live prices in Google Flights — the fastest way to see real MSP fares, no site-hopping.

Tip: Tuesday/Wednesday departures from MSP are usually the cheapest fares.

Airport pickup — from us

Flying into SRQ? We'll be at arrivals with the car loaded and drinks cold. TPA works too when we can swing it. Just tick "airport pickup" on your stay request and we'll confirm timing with your flight.
