so, I did not find many souvenir stores in the siesta beach area. In fact, when I was in St. Armand's Circle, there were stores selling t-shirts and other merch.. but as a typical souvenir- it was not there. So, in siesta key village it's the only good store providing visitors and residents on Siesta Key with what they want to enjoy the beautiful 8-mile beach and warm Gulf coast waters. Normally I collect magnets, shots glasses, and some frames and if anything local-then I go for that, like a tiki statue in this case. From beach mats, flops and sandals, chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, and sunscreen to sunglasses and trendy surf shorts, this well-stocked shop has a great range of clothing and equipment to choose from. and coming to souvenirs - it has all the range. When Shop says they have "Everything for the beach" they mean EVERYTHING! it has 3 sections, and you can find almost anything needed for the beach. Beach Bazaar knows exactly what you need at a low price read more

Spent a little time out of the sun shopping this afternoon. This is a LARGE shop that includes 5 connected buildings, open all the way through end to end. Each "shop" has an array of selections available. Mostly typical beach sop options, swim wear, clothing, hats, jewelry, souvenirs, to name a few. There are check out counters in each shop with the friendly staff to help with quick cash out. Prices are a little steep for clothing and swim. Toys are priced very reasonable! We snagged a few hats, sun shirt for Dad and toys for the kiddos. They have a little something for everyone. Name brands for those that care about that kind of thing. read more

Typical beach souvenir place. Actually had a ton of stuff some with decent prices and some not (we almost bought a $28 kids' sifter)- you just have to pay attention. However, what's going to keep us from being repeat customers are the rude employees. Like not just not friendly - like actually super rude bordering on racist. I had dropped in with 2 of my kids to look for a quick beach toy or two and remembered this was recommended to us by our vacation rental. As the rest of my family came in, my eldest (a college student) heard the one line female employee talking about large families and how basically the mom, by that point, is just a dog with a giant litter. Then goes on about how anything past two should be given up for adoption, sold, or not had. That's fine, she can have her opinion, but maybe not do it as a large family is currently shopping on the premises. As I went to the register, I said I'd like to buy this "for my litter" which she acknowledged my comment and then CONTINUED to keep talking very loudly about it as we left. I spoke to the manager who was pleasant and he apologized for his employee for "not being mindful" and thanked me for my business. Not again. This "dog" is going to find another place to shop at...which is a shame since my big litter and I do like to shop. read more

Super cute selection. Friendly staff. There is something for everyone. The stores is three separate parts that all connect

Beach Bazaar has a strong presence on the SK strip due to it's size and variety. It can be broken down into three sections with one part being the souvenir side, the middle having clothing and surfing items, and the last part being kind of a women's boutique with higher end items. We went in a few times to get items for the kids to play with at the beach and pool. The souvenir side had a decent selection of affordable items you could gift to people. The employees were a little stand offish. We were never offered help and they seemed annoyed when we were checking out on multiple occasions. I'm sure it can be annoying dealing tourists all day but it's part of the job. read more

Rude staff. They say they close at 10pm in Sunday's got there at 9.45 they wouldn't let me in saying they are closed. When I said it says at 10pm online lady said she doesn't care and shut the door. read more

We stopped in here after having ice cream at Big Olaf's across the street. I'm not usually much for gift shops, but I do like to pick up stickers from destinations I travel to. I have since retired from snowboarding, so I use my old board to put vacation stickers on and to hang on the wall as decoration. Hubby reminded me to stop in here for a sticker since we liked Siesta Key. I'm glad we stopped in! The prices don't seem too awful. I thought 7 postcards for a buck was not bad, so I picked up a few to send to my friends and family back home in NY. I picked up a few stickers, they ranged from $1-2. My name is not super common, so I was happy to find a mini Siesta Key keychain with my name on one side. Plus it was only $2.99, score. I like that it's compact and won't take up much space. The store carries pretty much everything you would expect to find in a beach city tourist town. You can get hats, shirts, magnets and many other items to remember your fun times here. The people working here were friendly too! Location is right in the heart of Siesta Key Village. read more

Fun place to shop with reasonable prices. Clean store with fitting rooms. Friendly staff & good parking. Definitely will be going again.

Cool store. Cool atmosphere. A large variety of quality merchandise. I recently purchased Two T-Shirts, a rather unique Sweatshirt, three Stickers, and one Magnet. Had to get the classic SK sticker. The T-Shirts were higher quality, unique, and priced accordingly. The Sweatshirt was particularly nice and good quality, but fairly expensive. The stickers and magnets were cheap to average priced. Great selection, okay pricing depending on item, but as one or two other reviewers also mentioned, minus one star for the few times where it did somehow come across as if a couple of the workers didn't really always want you around. I mean, that's the job and how the store makes money. Weird. But still pretty cool place. read more

Beach Bazaar is your standard touristy beach shop; full of random stuff you don't really need, but you want it because you're at the beach. So, when B was a bit over-served during our last visit to Siesta Key he decided we needed to visit this spot and buy some stuff. He was like a kid in a candy store who wanted everything. I had to talk him out of numerous purchases, but he still walked away with a t-shirt, some kind of ball that floats in water so you can play catch in the ocean, and some other beach toys, like a bucket and net. But, I'll say this for those purchases, they did come in handy. He still loves that t-shirt and wears it all the time, he and our friend played catch with that ball for hours the next day in the ocean, and we used the net and bucket to catch and release crabs on the beach the next night. So, although we didn't really need beach toys, we did get some fun out of them. If you're in the area and need something for the beach, or just want to check out the (mostly) useless stuff you don't really need, Beach Bazaar is a great place to check out! read more

Woot! Ok so I grew up vacationing in Siesta Key. As a kid the highlight of my day was cruising over to the beach bazaar. This place is exactly as it was when I was a kid. I mean the shelves seem to be lower but I guess that comes with time. It's basically a beach junk shop but it does the trick if you need something to take back home with you or if you forgot a beach item like sunscreen or swim shorts. Gotta love this place... read more

This is that typical FL beach and souvenir store that you see in every tourist town. I still like walking through, but how many times can you see the stuff, and say oh yeah, they just stamped the name of the city on it. Same stuff, different city. They do have cute swim suits, beach hats, summer dresses, and other beach ware, but hey you can find that same thing any where. Again same stuff, different city. Only one selfie stick though, and it was pretty generic so no. And what's with the hologram postcards and bookmarks? What's anyone gonna do with that, pretend it's 1980? Ok.... read more

I visited beautiful Siesta Keys recently and stopped by Beach Bazaar to do a little souvenir shopping before my flight home. The cashier accidentally forgot to bag one of my souvenirs so I called the store and explained what happened to rep, Justin. He was so understanding and attentive that he took down my info and mailed my purchase next day! Not only did Beach Bazaar have great souvenirs, their customers service was first class! Thanks Justin read more

Big shop full of fun souvenirs - tshirts, sunglasses, magnets, etc. Things seem to be reasonably priced. The only complaint I have is the cheap sunglass selection - most look like they're for women, unless I missed the men's cheap sunglass selection (husband needed a pair). Or, you can get an expensive pair for $100+ for guys. read more

I came here to buy a vial for sand ($3) magnets ($2) and stickers ($2) options and reasonably priced!

Sad experience and very very rude service. I bought a bathing suit top and the tag had a 50% off sticker. I went to checkout and the women rips the tag off and takes off 20%. I pay and read my receipt thinking maybe she gave me the correct discount and notice that the receipt only said 20% off. I confront her and say the tag said 50% and she told me I was wrong even though every bathing suit on the sale rack was 50% off. I had no proof for that one as she had ripped up the tag right after she scanned it because there are no returns. I felt taken advantage of. read more

Huge selection of t-shirts, sweatshirts, and hats for souvenirs to take home. Men's, women's, and children they have it all and at good prices compared to some other shops on the island. Found a couple of really nice t-shirts right before we had to leave that I am so happy I got. read more

Beach Bazaar - Souvenir Shops Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

I really did like all of the clothes that was at the shop. however I can't get any help when trying to find a different size. There where three young ladies at one of the registers they where very rude and unhelpful. They just didn't help. They completely wasted my time. when we ask for help one of the girls walked over to the shirt I was looking for and just said "nope". she then just walked away.I ended up going to an other store after the interaction. read more

Best souvenir and surf shop in the whole Area! Searched around quite a bit, then found this store! It had most surf brands, lots of siesta key stuff and lots of sandals and flip flops! read more

I love this place! Definitely a touristy place, but definitely worth checking out. The customer service is also super great!

I love "gift-shopping" this place was kind of expensive though but they did have name brand clothing not just the cheap usual stuff you'd find everywhere else. Skip the beach toys, good place for quality swim trunks and clothing. read more

Best gift shop on the island. Actually have nice brands and cute clothes unlike some of the others we visited that were just full of junk. Definitely recommend! read more

If I could give a negative I would. Not due to the prices or selection but because of the snooty clerk. After inquiring about a shirt she said, "we don't have anything in your size, our clothes run small." Imagine telling a woman of color, "we don't have anything in your color." We call that racism where I from. But I guess at Beach Bazar discriminating against cubby girls is ok. Not acceptable! read more

Cute and kitschy beach town tourist trap. Purchased a cheap pair of sunglasses and some other tchotchkes.

This is in the busy and popular Siesta Villages. Parking is hard but all parking is in this area. This place is huge - like five rooms and they can fit young or old alike. My boyfriend, his mom and me a found stuff we loved. read more

They have a pretty decent selection of beachwear, as well as tons of beach toys, knick-knacks, and all other things beach-themed! Their prices are pretty decent, so this is our go-to shop whenever we need something last minute, or we want to get some souvenirs. read more

A fun store to pick up novelties, a great bathing suit, seashells, sandals, beach cover up and even a cool hat! Your beach needs are available here! Great place to stop in before you head to the beach and get a Siesta Key t-shirt! read more

Great selection of beach gear, t-shirts and Siesta Key swag. I love the fact that I can get my little girls toys for very cheap to keep them happy. I keep myself happy by buying the rubber poop for under a buck! It's right in the main downtown area, so it is always a must stop while strolling through town. read more

We live on Siesta Key during the winter and when we have visitors from up north coming to visit and wanting hats, shirts and beach items we take them to Beach Bazaar. The prices are very reasonable and have a great selection. The location is right in the heart of the village. Also, my wife loves to shop there for the grandchildren. read more

Great souvenir shop, much variety and friendly staff. Prices are reasonable. Def would recommend!!

I just went in to Beach Bazaar shop in Siesta Key at 5:30 pm on a Sunday and not one, not two but all three workers at three different stations had their heads down on their cellphones! Not one of them even lifted their heads up to say hello, greet us, even make eye contact! Shameful! I will never, ever set foot in this business again! read more

During May I was in Beach Bazaar & came across womens Celine lounge pants. I bought a pair for me & a pair for my niece Pum Pum which I mailed to her. Lo & behold the USPS managed to lose the package even tho I have a tracking #. Today I called Beach Bazaar to see if they still had them. JOSH answered had me describe the pants, went & looked for them, found what i had described and asked me if he could send me a picture so we would be sure it was the pants I was looking for. Josh rocks! It was the pants, he took my address and mailed them off to me. Josh was so polite and helpful & truely went above & beyond what seems to be the normal anymore for customer service. He deserves a raise. Thank you Josh! . CHERYL read more

I bought several souvenirs from Beach Bazaar. One particular item was a beautiful coffee mug for my grandmother. When I returned home and unpacked I noticed that the mug was broken beyond repair. I called the beach bazaar and explained the situation. They were very understanding and shipped me a new mug (and an extra one for myself). All I had to pay was for the mugs and shipping. They didn't charge me a handling fee. Justin at Beach Bazar saved the day! read more
