Desoto Palms Description
DeSoto Palms Assisted Living Community is all about Living The Life and what better place to do just that than in the quaint, metropolitan city of Sarasota, Florida. DeSoto Palm’s Mediterranean style compliments the tropical living of Sarasota and is located just 10 miles from the beautiful white beaches of Lido Key.
With more than 3 million square feet of restaurants, shopping and movies a half of mile away and just a 15 minute drive to downtown Sarasota, everyday will be filled with exciting new things to do. Take a stroll around St. Armands Circle for unique shops and outdoor cafes, go back in time to the Ringling Museum and Cà d’Zan Mansion and then take in the opera or a play at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall. You can also just simply sit by the bay, under the swaying palm trees and watch the boats sail by. And this is just the start of all Sarasota has to offer. So come and start Living The Life at DeSoto Palms.
