The location is great. Walking distance from the square but the hotel has a free shuttle to Armand square. Great shopping and dinning. Lido beach doesn't feel as touristy as some other locations in the area. The beaches are beautiful.

Positives: The staff was friendly, the amenities and location are great. A separate adult pool is a fabulous plus! Negatives: I hate paying separate "resort fees" for things that really should be included. Cleanliness was a little lacking with mold in the shower and just a general feeling of dirty in hallways and elevators. A burnt out light bulb wasn't... More

We have been coming to the Lido Beach Resort every June for the past 3 years. My wife and I come to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We also travel with another couple who are good friends whose anniversary is the day before ours (they were married 1 day before us). We love the location of the Lido Beach Resort (LBR).... More

You can't beat this place for location: on the beach, two pools, shuttle to restaurants. But the service is really bad in some respects, especially housekeeping. The long weekend I was there they did not change our sheets, even when I called to complain and they said they'd do it, they did not. Repeated phone calls had no effect. It... More

What can I say. It all starts with the staff and management. There is friendly, then there is Lido Beach Resort friendly. The hotel manager, Tim, took the time out of his busy schedule on two separate occasions to help me feel welcome, and to educate me on the local fishing environment. "Hold on" he said, "let me show you... More

Literally just back from our trip. I was a little hesitant as we were staying at the "main building" with all the previous negative reviews. No worries needed - it was beautiful! We were at a 2nd floor beachfront kitchenette double. Everything clean, nice, spectacular views. Staff was awesome - thumbs up to Manny on the beach who took a... More

We just held a national UN Women conference at the Lido Beach Resort. The location is just lovely, as is the resort. We were well accommodated for our conference at the top floor. The room was spacious, but I believe we had to turn people away as it was smaller than the number of guests we anticipated. The morning continental... More

This is a great place to stay! We have been loyal returning guests for 15 years+. Love the upper floor South Tower suites, 2 Heated Pools and Jacuzzis, Tiki Bar, in room WI-FI and let me not forget the "beautiful Beach"! On your early morning walk you can still find some great shells. Shopping and restaurants in St. Armand's Circle... More

Lovely hotel on the beach, with two pools, one just for adults, and entertainment by the pool. Nice bar and food is good. Also has two restaurants - very good breakfast. Close to St. Armand's circle for shopping/restaurants, and 5 minute drive into Sarasota.
