I had a wonderful experience working with Youssef at Sarasota Genesis. From the beginning, the sales process was completely pressure free. Youssef genuinely wanted to make sure I got the best deal possible and was happy with my purchase. He was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. What really stood out to me was that he followed up with me today just to make sure I didn’t have any questions. That level of customer service is hard to find. I highly recommend Youssef to anyone looking for a great car buying experience!
I had a fantastic experience at this dealership, thanks to Gavin! My car was in the shop for two days, and as anyone knows, communication is key when your vehicle is being worked on. Gavin kept me informed every step of the way. The team successfully repaired my vehicle and took the time to advise me on a few maintenance items to keep an eye on for the future, without any high pressure sales tactics. If you want professional, honest, and reliable service, this is the place to go. I will definitely be back for all my future Hyundai needs!
I was taken care of right away. I had an excellent experience at Gettel Hyundai of Sarasota, all thanks to Gavin! As a maintenance service consultant, he was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain exactly what would happen.The service was completed on time, and Gavin kept me updated every step of the way. If you want top-tier service and someone you can trust with your vehicle, definitely ask for Gavin!
Michael (Sales)and Steven ( Finance) made a very scary process not scary at all! They took the time with me and explained everything we did in full detail. I have a beautiful new vehicle that will be driven with pride and love. Thanks for everything you two.

Alex was great to work with at Gettel Hyundai of Sarasota. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole car-buying process easy and stress-free. I really appreciated his honesty and excellent customer service. Highly recommend asking for Alex!
Honestly, the best car buying/selling experience I’ve had. No stress, no hidden catch, just straight to the business. Alex was awesome — he took care of everything and made the whole process super smooth and fast. 10/10, these guys are the real deal!
I visited this dealership three times, and it was thanks to Alex Abdrakhmanov that I ended up buying a car. Alex showed a genuine interest in my needs, highlighted all the advantages of the Hyundai, helped me choose the right model and trim level, and was very persuasive—and now I’m the happy owner of a Tucson Hybrid!
If you want to save time and skip the hassle of buying or selling a car, this is the place. Top-notch service, super straightforward, and no time wasted. Huge thanks to Alex — he helped me out with everything and got the paperwork done incredibly fast. Highly recommend these guys!
If you want honest advice and zero pressure, go see Alex . His consultation was awesome—he actually listened to what I needed, explained all my options clearly, and gave great service without trying to force a quick sale. Super helpful guy!
I had a scheduled maintenance appointment and I was greeted by Andrew Latta. He met me at my car and from that point on the service was excellent! He is professional and also very friendly. My rides to/from my house were taken care of and I was informed from start to finish. Thank you Andrew !
Shoutout to Alex for helping me through the GMC purchase process smoothly and easily! He was very professional and caring. Thank you for making the experience so pleasant!
Victor and Aidan helped me so much with leasing a new car!! Would recommend them to anybody looking for a new car and a new Hyundai!
(Translated by Google) A very good experience, spectacular cars, and Walter provides excellent service in both English and Spanish. Even the building is very nice and new. Go, you won't regret it! (Original) Muy buena experiencia, autos espectaculares, y Walter atiende muy bien , en ingles y español, hasta el edificio es muy lindo y nuevo , vayan, no se arrepentirán
Huge shoutout to Armando at Gettel Genesis! Just picked up my new whip and the experience was top tier. Armando made the whole process super easy and low-stress.... he was incredibly helpful from start to finish and actually took the time to answer all my questions without any of the typical dealership pressure. If you’re in the market for a new car, definitely go see him. He made it happen!
Saleman Dylan was great. Steven who did the paperwork excellent. Having to sit 5 hours to get the vehicle from their dealership 25 mile away was totally unacceptable. You would not send someone to pick up the vehicle until we had signed all of the paperwork. We bought a new vehicle from you in July 2025. Your sales manager who we never met needs to aquire some people skills. I am 77 and my wife is 73. Treat us like we are important.
Walter Calligari at GETTEL. Hyundai Sarasota Fl —is the reason I bought my car , Zero pressure, total honesty, and he explained every option clearly. Took care of all the details . If you want someone trustworthy in car sales, ask for Walter. 10/10 Walter was patient, knowledgeable, and never pushy. He listened to what I actually needed Walter is the kind of salesman that makes you want to come back to the same dealership. Highly recommend asking for him. I knew I was in good hands thanks. Sincerely Isabel
Walter was the best to work with! He listened to everything I wanted and found the perfect fit without being “pushy”. Great experience

Walter was a great help checking out cars!
Walter was great! Very knowledgeable and friendly. Made me feel comfortable and at ease about any questions I had.
Shout out to Alex for helping me with the purchase of my Genesis GV70. I initially came in to look at a vehicle I saw online but found out was already sold when I arrived at the dealership. He quickly pointed me to another Genesis GV70 that had just been traded and I actually liked better. He is very aware of what is available on the lot. He is very professional, courteous, and not pushy at all. If you're in the market for a Hyundai or Genesis be sure to ask for Alex.
Always great sales and service at Gettel Genesis of Sarasota. Walter is the best!! He has helped us for years!
Best service anywhere!!
Halim was a great person and very professional! If you are looking for a car call him. He knows these cars inside and out. We had and great experience and will be back.
I had somewhat of an "emergency" situation where my hybrid car ran out of inverter coolant. As the service department was out of commission for the day, Steven and Jeff (both in the finance department I believe) helped me find someone in the back garage who was able to look at my car and assess the situation. I appreciated their assistance, and was able to get back on the road in no time.
Friendly staff. No pressure.
Derrick Silvers is incredibly knowledgeable, hardworking, and honest. He made the buying process smooth and transparent, and I highly recommend working with him.
If you are heading to Gettel Hyundai, ask for Derrick Silvers. He is a true professional who operates with integrity and makes the entire experience easy and stress-free.
I’ve worked with Derrick Silvers in various capacities and he is the definition of a professional. If you’re looking for a salesperson who truly listens and puts your needs first, go see him at Gettel Hyundai.
Derrick brings a level of expertise and integrity that is hard to find. He is professional, thorough, and works tirelessly to ensure his clients are taken care of. Loved my experience!
I’ve known Derrick for a long time and his commitment to his clients is unmatched. He brings that same level of professionalism and care to his new role at Gettel Hyundai.
Beautiful new dealership with a ton of options! It's always such a hassle going car shopping but I had a great experience here. Steven in the finance department was extremely thorough and took the time to explain to me in detail the different avenues in payment options and benefits they can offer. 10/10 would recommend.
Ok, from floor salesman to sales manager to finance manager, we had the most professional, comfortable and fun buying our jeep. I will definently buy here again. Thank you for treating us right!
The staff was so pleasant. Not pushy and understood that I knew what I was looking for and tried their best to make it happen for me! Michael M is a fabulous salesperson. He partnered with Dylan when he was unavailable. They were delightful. Odd to call car buying a fun experience but it was painless. The facility is beautiful and airy. Love that the EV’s stay outside. Smart move. I bought a used Sonata and I LOVE IT! Thank you to Michael, Dylan and Victory. Highly recommend Gettel Hyundai for your next car buying experience!!
My recent service experience is great. Check in very fast and efficient with Mr Jarvis, complimentary Uber ride home worked out perfectly. The online features also very smooth. When the car is ready, they will send an Uber to pick me up and drive me to the dealership. Much better experience than last time.
When I call to make a appointment this had open that same day and the stuff Andrew was good and explain stuff to me when I had a question
Andrew and the couple other guys I talked to were extremely helpful and personable
The people at this dealership made the car buying experience a positive one. Victor in sales was friendly and helpful and the sales manager, Shelby was incredible with the amount of care and attention she gave in making this deal work for us.
Met with Jayden, assistant Service Manager. He was professional while offering friendly service.
Very friendly and easy to work with

What a great experience we had today! We bought 2 new cars and Matthew Boothe our sales associate and Sandy the GM were extremely helpful and had great customer service. The whole experience was easy and smooth. Thank you both for the wonderful experience today. We will definitely be back and make referrals to you guys. We traveled 3 hours from Ocala because we heard great things and we weren’t disappointed!

Xavier did an awesome job helping us buy our new Hyundai. He's very personable, knowledgeable and friendly. We will definitely come back to him for any future purchases. Everyone else was very pleasant as well.
When searching for a new palisade, we searched at multiple locations in the west coast of florida.We live in venice and my twin sister, and I both bought a new palisade with mandy.She was wonderful! she listened to what we both wanted. She didn't let us settle for anything less. And both our vehicles were not at their site, but she managed to get exactly what we needed through another dealership. And it was a very smooth transaction. i would highly recommend Mandy!
I went the other day and a man called Walter was really helpful with walking me through everything and he was very polite. I didn’t end up having a chance to buy anything, but whenever the occasion comes I will definitely be looking for him to help me out.
Great experience buying from Gettel Hyundai in Sarasota. Fair clear pricing was provided before I got to the dealership. No gimmicks, add-ons, or surprise fees. Honest pricing is rare among dealerships. I highly recommend purchasing your next Hyundai from them. Worth the drive from Fort Myers.
Facility is clean, friendly and staff was very professional and helpful Murder.
I got the chance to work with Michael Marron as my sales person and couldn’t have asked for anyone better! We reached out to Michael inquiring about a 24 f150 I seen online. Michael reached back out with a walk around video and more details about the truck. We drove from Lakeland to check out the the truck and they had it parked out front for us waiting to be test drove. Moved forward with the truck and Michael did not push anything onto me with the truck. Great guy i recommend him at Gettle Hyundai of Sarasota as a ... Read More

Some people have told me that they would rather go to a dentist or something else painful instead of shopping for a car. My response is you have never met Jeanine at Gettel Hyundai of Sarasota.
Jeanine has many C's just like people use to measure the quality of a diamond.
Jeanine is courteous and caring.
Jeanine's communication is clear and answers your questions with clarity.
Jeanine performs her actions with honesty and intregrity.

I had a really great experience working with Amanda. She was patient, honest, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the whole process. She answered all my questions and truly made buying a car feel easy instead of stressful. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers and wants to help you make the right decision. I highly recommend asking for her if you want someone trustworthy and easy to work with!
Walter has been so great to work with. I came in to buy out my lease and he was very friendly from the jump and wanted to make sure I was getting the best possible outcome of trying to lower my monthly car payment. I’m walking away saving $350+ a month with the option we chose. Thank you Walter for your kindness!

The best experience I ever had buying a car. Walter is the best
With the Price of gas beginning to go up, I thought it was a good time to trade in my 2017 and get a new hybrid car. I went to one dealership in the Bradenton area and had a difficult time with the salesman. I was very discouraged. But I decided to drive down to Gettel Hyundai in Sarasota and look at their Hyundai Tucson. That was the best decision I made! My salesman was, 🌟FELIPE✨ he was caring and understanding, Listening to my needs. He's spent a lot of time making sure that I found the perfect car and ... Read More

I came to the Nissan dealership with my mother to find a reasonable car that she could drive and Walter was the kindest, easiest person to deal with. I’ve had numerous interactions with various car salesmen and those have left me not wanting to buy another car. Today that has changed, and this was the easiest purchase we’ve ever made. Thank you, Walter.
Felipe was excellent. Help us walk through the process and it was very helpful with selling us our new 2026 palisade.
(Translated by Google) Felipe was excellent; his professionalism, kindness, and trustworthiness ensured he explained everything in great detail. Fantastic customer service! (Original) Felipe fue Excelente, su trato profesional amabilidad confianza te explican todo muy detallada mente genial atención al cliente
Car price was reasonable and sales guy was nice and willing to negotiate. However, they have clearly sold my information to someone as I keep getting spam calls for extended warranty coverage. Would recommend not putting your real phone number on their paperwork.
Chase with the glass shop was polite and very helpful getting my windshield replaced!
John Owen’s is the best! He helped us find a perfect car you can’t find these days! I highly recommend John for your next car purchase.
Came once again to buy a vehicle for my daughter and they didn't disappointed us at all. Like for the last 7 years we've been doing bussines with them, they provided us with the best service possible. From the sales representative Massimo to the Manager Jorge, they made us feel like part of their family. We left happy and with a new car. Thank you Gettel Hyundai for once again taking care of my family.
Michael Marron is amazing!!!! We cannot recommend him enough!!!! He is very diligent and proactive. He made our experience comfortable and checked on us constantly to ensure our needs are met. We are so thankful for him!!!
