Editor's take
A 4.7 rating from 6,509 reviews plus recurring praise for the waterfront views, well-maintained grounds, and kid-focused rainforest area make it a standout attraction.
What visitors say
Visitors consistently call the grounds beautiful and meticulously maintained, with the Sarasota Bay views and tropical plant variety as the biggest highlights; ticket price is the main complaint.
Marie Selby Botanical Gardens’ Downtown Sarasota campus is a bayfront garden built around a world-renowned living plant collection, with many smaller garden areas to explore. Expect tropical plants, orchids, impressive banyan trees, waterfront views, and dining at Selby House Café and Green Orchid Restaurant.
