From Tampa and St. Petersburg Airports
From either airport, make your way to I-275 south (to St. Petersburg). Continue south, through St. Petersburg to the beautiful Skyway Bridge ($1.00 toll).
After crossing the Skyway Bridge, take the first exit (#2) south on to Route 19. Route 19 will soon join Rte 41. (You will barely notice the change in designation.) Continue south on Route 19, through Bradenton until the road make a long, sweeping curve into Cortez Road.
Route 41 will make a sharp left turn after a few traffic lights; but you will continue west on Cortez Road SR 684 west until you cross the bridge at the Village of Cortez and the road ends.
Turn left (south) on Rte 789 at Bradenton Beach. Pass Coquina Beach and cross the bridge that connects to Longboat Key. From here the drive is about four miles to Longboat Harbour.
Continue south - the Hilton (on your right)
Then first left after the Hilton to 4454 Gulf of Mexico Dr.
(Exeter Drive is the street sign on the left).
