"Sunroom is a slightly more fussy sibling to Guesthouse, the cocktail bar next door. Here, the drinks are the main event. They are beautiful, both in flavor and presentation, and there’s pretty much nothing on the menu with fewer than six ingredients. Options range from a dirty martini with olive leaf-infused gin to an elote mezcal concoction that’s mixed in an old-school milkshake blender, which gives it the consistency of a smoothie. Come with a date or a small group, because the narrow bar is best suited for parties of two or three, and the best seats are at the terrazzo bar that runs the length of the space." - ryan pfeffer, cheryl rodewig

"Sunroom is a dreamy cocktail lounge that would feel as natural in West Hollywood as it does in the heart of Orlando. Bathed in soft, pink-hued lighting, the highly Instagrammable space pairs perfectly with its specialty cocktail menu, charmingly named “Tropical Trips.” A nightly $8 happy hour menu makes this a popular spot for a night out, and 6 p.m. post-work drinks often evolve into a packed dance floor. For those seeking something special, Sunroom’s extensive spirits list includes options like hand-crafted Neta Mezcal and Worthy Park rum." - Colleen Hamilton
"Given they open their doors at 6 p.m. (5 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays), the Sunroom is typically sunless but there’s plenty to beam about at this throwback terrazzo-lovers’ dream. The ultra-chill vibe is reflected in beachy, tropical cocktails like the “Bonswa Swizzle,” an homage to Haitian-style tippling with Saint Benevolence rum and gin fruited with pineapple and spiced with cinnamon. Lime, orgeat, and bitters round it out but it’s just one in a bevy of creatively focused potions that have made this sister bar to the Guesthouse a fave among the cocktail crowd. Its “Golden Hour” (until 8 p.m.) is like a ray of sunshine made from $8 cocktails." - Faiyaz Kara
