“Filthy, old, falling apart!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 3, 2012

We stayed in the "upgraded" two bedroom house. The couches were black, no exageration, had to put sheets over them from the beds, and at that point your worried about them too.
Went to look for a plug, moved the dresser out and the dirt/dust was thick layer. Everything needs painting and repair. Windows that were once are boarded up, it is a maze of disrepair!

I dont know if other rooms are like this one, but to see Trip Advisor awards on office door is amazing considering what we saw?

Sorry, but you need to clean it up, paint and fix.

Room Tip: Stay somewhere else OR before you pay check out the room!!!!! Please

“great location and laid-back, glitz-free vibe”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 29, 2012

This is a clean, older motel a short walk from the beach. If you want high-style, definitely stay somewhere else. But if you like the old Florida vibe and just want a clean, comfortable, and reasonably priced place a short walk from a great beach, you'll love this.

“Florida Style and Confort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 10, 2012

Being born and raised in Florida, there are few places that remind me of how it used to be and Beau Lido is one of them. Thanks for a true Florida feel and hominess. Very Clean and with everything we needed for our stay and more. I was here for a conference but look forward to returning for a visit to take advantage of the comfort, relaxation and ease of access to the beach. Plus we will take full advantage of the effeciencies that are so well equipped.
Additionally, proximity of shops and restaurants made our stay wonderful. Thank you
Beau Lido.

“Old fla style. Perfect location.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 9, 2012 via mobile

We booked late looking for a place to stay close to the beach to meet some old friends and couldn't have been happier. Checked in early :)) thanks and beach was across the street. Our friends were just up the road so the location was perfect. Great old fla style room, clean and very friendly staff. Will definitely be back again.

“Home away from home comfy”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 7, 2012

You almost never see anyone and office hours are limited, but nothing went wrong. Secret competence. Fridge, microwave, stove, silverware, china, casual furniture, outdoor chairs, tables, hammock and clothesline. Short walk to the beach. Pet friendly. Cash damage deposit for pet required coordination with manager Carrie because of limited office hours but she worked around us and it was cheerfully refunded. Some outdoor stuff was rusting and cracked but this didn't get in our way. We had an extremely comfortable and private stay and we wouldn't hesitate to return.

Room Tip: No room tips, but a good directions tip is to turn onto Coolidge from Boulevard of the Presidents an...
