I know escape rooms have been around for a while, but it wasn't until I read Partners in Crime by…read moreAlisha Rai that I finally felt inspired to try one for myself. And WOW I'm so glad I did! My husband and I tackled the Clue-Dunnit room and had an absolute blast. It was intense, immersive, and honestly, such a great way to bond and have fun. We finished with just seconds to spare, which made it all the more exciting. If you're in Sarasota area and looking for a fun, interactive experience, I highly recommend trying out an escape room - you won't regret it. Pro Tip: Go with people you communicate well with - every second counts!

We solved the case!!!…read more My son wanted to do an escape room for his birthday. I called up some friends and we signed up for Murder on the Manatee. Not sure how we pulled it off with two 11 year olds and a 9 year old running around and touching everything, but we did it. The kids had the best time and were begging to go back to try another room before we even left the building. This place will be a regular for school breaks and fun activities.

It was a super fun experience and had all kinds of cool puzzles for us to solve. We had to get help from the game-master but they let us struggle before giving us clues... We literally solved the adventure with only 30 seconds to spare.... Now that we know how this works we def. would like to do one of the other adventures.

We first did the lost city and we finished before time was up. We had so much fun we decided to try the hardest Mona room. We finished with 12 mins to spare. The rooms were awesome. We had such a good time figuring out the clues. Mona was definitely a lot harder we actually asked for a hint. But when you finish you really feel like you've accomplished something. My nephew and son are two bright men and I wouldn't have gotten through the game without both of them. We worked real well as a team. Bathrooms were clean as was the building. I love that they have puzzles on the tables while you are waiting to use a room. They had over 10 rooms to choose from. Can't wait to go back again.

We made our reservations, not knowing that it was a scare room called the basement as well LOL. Let me just say HAMBONE is the man and will not disappoint! What a rush! it's about like hunting rabbit you have to be very, very quiet and fast LOL. They have a great introduction that tells you about the different locks and puzzles you will be dealing with in the room and further instructions after entering it. The game is very exciting and will not disappoint. This was one of the best nights I've ever had.

They let us peak into the other rooms to see what they looked like and they all look great!! We did the jail break one, they have you dress up in the orange jumpsuit and handcuffs its awesome! It was very challenging even though we beat it!! I don't want to give too much detail but it was definitely worth it, I would 100% do it again if I didn't already know what to do now haha but we do plan on going back and trying their other ones! Mad hatter and the paradise one. Highly recommended for a fun activity with family, friends and for a date!

It also had some really cool special effects we haven't seen in other places! After we finished the room, the owners asked if we wanted to "test drive" their new AI fantasy room. As someone who has done a lot of escape rooms, this room was like nothing else I've ever experienced in all the best ways! It's actually designed to be completed over multiple sessions, and they have a system to save your group's progress so that you can come back and keep working from where you left off. We had so much fun and will ABSOLUTELY be coming back to keep tackling the AI room. Anybody in the area who likes escape rooms or wants to try one out should absolutely come here!

We didn't need the grandmaster much BUT he was friendly and inviting upon our arrival and departure from Escape Room Sarasota. Online booking (so I was told) was fast and easy. This Escape Room is limited (two rooms) in comparison to other Escape Rooms in other locations but we had a blast and would definitely try the other room when in the area.

Again, overall pretty good experience this time we escaped with 23 seconds to spare…read more The reason that I don't give this place five stars is sometimes it takes quite a while to get a hint and this time when we did get a hint, it just confirmed something that we had already solved. When we asked Luke, who was our front desk person about it he said sometimes they are late giving the hints, because they are overseeing multiple rooms, which is why the hint that they gave was no longer helpful. Luke, however, was fantastic so shout out to him. We did the Scooby Doo escape room and overall it was pretty great. I really like how they have little signs that show when something isn't part of the game, so you don't spend unnecessary time trying to break into something that you're not supposed to. Overall, I thought all the clues worked well together and they were all different enough to keep things really interesting. We thought we were doing really well when we got into the third room with 30 minutes to spare, but that one was particularly difficult for us. The room is well themed and clean. We started right on time. Pro tip that you can get your 90 minutes validated here and if you go shopping at sprouts they validate on top of that so you can save $10 total in parking. However, I think they don't stack 90 minutes on 90 minutes, they only stack 60 minutes on 90 minutes so you can get a total of 2 1/2 hours of free parking. I do enjoy the games here so we will probably be back.

Luckily, the family we were with were so nice and we all got on great. We also made it out. Yay us. About the establishment. First off, I stopped in the bathroom first and was pleasantly surprised that there was a bin of feminine hygiene products. I didn't need any, but to know that if I was in a bind, they were prepared to help a girl out. Thank you. The room itself was not confined which let the seven of us move around without running into each other. We had a good time and would recommend these rooms if anyone asked. 06.04.2026
