🏝Tropical, Private, Gated Home w/ pool Short Walk to St Armands & Lido & LBK🏖

Lido Key is located off the coast of downtown Sarasota and directly across the cascading Ringing Causeway. Sarasota's northern island is a host to multiple serene, white-sand beaches within walking distance of the cosmopolitan St. Armands Circle - which boasts stunning architecture, glamorous shopping, and a plethora of dining opportunities. The surrounding neighborhoods allow close accessibility to the many amenities that Lido Key has to offer, while still being a quiet oasis away from the hustle and bustle. Walk 150 yards to St. Armands for dinner or night out, before returning to a lighted heated pool and spa to end the evening.

The pool deck is complete with recliners, chairs and a dining table for real outdoor living. Retire to comfy new beds which will insure a blissful sleep to start the new day. Visit this home once and you will return!

There is an abundant amount of Activities and Attractions in Sarasota/Bradenton/Siesta. These are just a few of the many treasures and cultural events.

People from around the world come to choose from one of our many famous beaches:
Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Lido Key, Bradenton Beach, and Anna Maria Beach. The famous white beaches you have always dreamed off!

Beautiful gated home with very private pool and patios surrounded by lush landscaping on all sides, and stucco privacy wall. Our home is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath beach home with newly resurfaced pebble-tec pool. 2 bicycles are included for endless cycling and touring the island. Enjoy a peaceful evening around a cozy gas fire ring along with swimming in your very private pool surrounded by tropical palms.

Start your day with a fresh cup of coffee and morning paper in hand on a relaxing porch swing in the front garden area enjoying the warmth of the morning sun, sweet smells of orange blossoms, and soft sounds of a waterfall trickling into the koi pond surrounded by palms and lush tropical plants. If you're hungry, enjoy grilling your favorite meal on another patio with table and plenty of chairs for entertaining.

Step outside the privacy gate, and take a short stroll into beautiful St. Armands Circle where you can enjoy the village's boutiques, restaurants, coffee and ice cream shops...the options are endless! Our home is nestled among lush landscaping, steps away from the Circle and Lido Beach providing a complete package of sun, fun, rest, and relaxation.

Amazing home, amazing location. We walked to Saint Armand's to eat and shop. Just a quick drive to Lido Beach, or downtown Sarasota. The pool is clean and refreshing.The home is lovely, well appointed and gated. There was plenty of space for the 5 of us. All you need to do is pack your bags. We hope to stay here next year :)

Great location
Loved that it had private pool. Wish there weren’t so many trees surrounding it. Seed pods leaves and even a few large palm branches were constantly falling in pool so we ended up cleaning it each day. Expected some debris in pool this time of year but it was a lot. Beds and living room furniture were very comfy. Outdoor loungers were nice but the rest of the outdoor furniture needs to be cleaned or replaced. Location was excellent! Walked to dinner each night.

Perfect position for St. Armands
We had a great time in this bungalow apart from a few minor problems with heating etc which we did get sorted. I would say a couple of annoying things we found were the pool heater was on 24/7, which kept us awake at night as it was right by the side of the bungalow , goodness knows how much the heating bills are, no curtains in the top windows in the main bedroom so we had to sleep with eye masks on … Also the kitchen saucepans were very odd and old, I suggest a new set is provided for the next guests . The beach chairs and bikes definitely need replacing. Very old and rusty . We did find the barbecue quite handy and used it most days .

This property was amazing, perfect for our family of six. Very short walk from St. Armands Circle, and plenty of other activities within a short drive, including the amazing beaches. The house was beautiful and equipped with everything we needed. The pool was great as well. Our whole family loved it. The property manager was extremely helpful and took great care of us.

Perfect location, fabulous house and dog friendly
We were fortunate to have 5 weeks at this clean and functional house. First the location is truly a block and a half from St Armand's Circle. But when we were in the very private backyard with the pool and palm trees we didn't hear anything except frogs. We have two dogs, and never had to worry about them getting out to the street. The outside area has 3 different relaxation spots, and all are gated from the road and from each other. The front yard has a porch-type swing and a lovely fountain and pond; there's a terrific eating area with large table and grill on the side; and then there's the beautiful pool area in back. The beach is about .8 miles away. We tried walking it using the buggy but it was too much for us, so we just put the chairs and buggy in the car and tried all of the beautiful Lido beaches. We had a single friend stay for a couple of days, and the house is laid out in a way that ensures privacy. Two of the bedrooms are separated from the master suite by the living room and kitchen so everyone feels like they have their own private bedroom/bath. We had a couple of questions, and Courtney and Steve were always responsive. The pool is not screened in, so the palm leaves fall in sometimes. Trevor, the pool maintenance guy, was there like clockwork every Thurs morning, and kept it clean and working. We had no issues. It doesn't get any better than staying at this lovely house in the best location I can think of in Sarasota.

Wonderful experience with the property managers and the location is unbeatable. Pool is fenced in for those worried about kid safety. A little bit of a walk to the beach but right off of all of the shopping and restaurants. Would highly recommend

Awesome stay!
We really enjoyed the location of the house. Each night, we walked to the square and took in the shops. It is about a two minute walk. We also walked to the beach, which is a bit longer but completely manageable. The day we spent on the beach, we drove and parked at a public lot so we wouldn’t have to lug everything during the walk. You really will have a tough time beating the location of the house. The house was clean and spacious. The pool was nice. Our only complaint would be that there was no hot water running to one of the bathrooms. Also, the toilet in that bathroom ‘ran’ frequently and actually, the tank was filled with hot water! So, it was a little disappointing that we couldn’t utilize all of the showers. And I am having trouble understanding why the hot water wouldn’t work in one.

Family vacation
The property was lovely except for the AC not working on one side of the house where the babies and their parents were staying. After many attempts by the property manager to fix the problem, the management company brought in 2 portable AC's to attempt to ameliorate the heat. The units were somewhat effective but didn't really fully cool the bedrooms until the last night we were there. It was a particularly hot week in Sarasota so there was very little reprieve from the heat. We were happy to be together so we made the best of it..

This Lido Key home is beautiful, clean and in an amazing location! We felt safe and at home as soon as we walked in. The directions for getting in were very clear and communication with the managers was easy and they are very responsive and kind. It is a short walk to St. Armand's Circle where there are awesome shops and delicious food! It was a short 10-15 minute walk to the beach and the home had beach chairs and umbrellas for our use. The beds are very comfortable as well as the couches in the living room. The kitchen had all the appliances and accessories we needed to cook breakfast every morning. The outdoor space was beautiful and the pool was warm and clean! Our overall stay was so amazing and we cannot wait to come back and stay again very soon!!
