Playalido was a perfect place for our visit. It was very clean and the location was perfect for both the beach and a stroll down to St. Armands Circle.

We began with sleep issues and a hot water problem which Hostess immediately resolve by moving us to a different unit on grounds. Quiet, safe, neighborhood only a short walk to beach. Plenty to do and see. Very nice outdoors yard with outdoor kitchen. We love Lido Key and would surely rebook with Playalido!

This was in a great neighborhood and just walking distance across the street to the beach. The unit was a cute set up for a couple. However the bath towels were old and 2 of them smelled like they dried a dog. There were not enough places to hang towels/clothes in the bathroom and no trash can in there. There was only one dish drying towel and no dish cloths, dish drying mat or drainer. The only thing provided to wash the dishes was a stinky sponge. There was no hot water in the kitchen, when you put the faucet to hot water, it barely trickled out. Hopefully the owners will care enough to take care of these minor issues for the next renters because it was a great location. Nice to be next to the Lido Beach resort where you can get something to eat and drink, listen to live music and rent their beach chairs and umbrellas even if you aren't staying there. Also next to the Ted Sperling Park for kayaking.

Convenient location. Cute place, just a walk to the beach. Loved having a kitchen. We found so much to do in the area. Highly recommend. If you plan to spend time at the beach I suggest bringing a cooler with wheels, there isn't one at the house. We traveled with ours. Enjoy!

We surprised my parents with a stay here in honor of my dad's retirement of over 40 years in social work. Everyday they checked in with us and told us what a great location this was and how beautiful the decorals. My dad emphasized that the bed was extremely comfortable and leaving at the end of the week was very difficult because of this reason lol. There have been updates since the posting and my parents said it was beautifully done. Based on their stay, I would highly recommend this. They also said that the host was extremely kind and welcoming and also acknowledged his retirement which I thought was very special. Super thumbs up ❤️👍

We had previously stayed in properties on this street and in close proximity. This was a great place for the two of us in proximity to the Beach, St. Armand's Circle, and easy access to other attractions in the area. I would stay here again without hesitation. Communications with the manager/owner rep. were prompt and clear.

There was an issue with getting the code upon arrival, but after contacting the property manager, she took care of it right away and we were in the property shortly after check in. The bathroom door did not close - issue with the door knob. We stayed in Unit 1, very small porch - no chairs. All the chairs were on the other side of the home, we would have liked to have something in the front to sit on for sunrise coffee. All minor things you can live with, but they should be addressed for future renters.

Great Place for a couple/ very convenient to everything

Cute little place. Very convenient to beach. manager very responsive and Debbie (our contact) was on the spot with our questions and solutions. Very well stocked and laid out. A good bit of room in open area. Shower door ( as stated in other reviews is an issue). I brought a door stop to hold door just in shower area. But you could use a washrag to keep most water in shower area. A very great stay and staff to work with !!! We definitely would use again ! ( it was quiet with the other guests we had ) Very pleased with our choice !

Zero complaints 😊

We had the most amazing time staying here! It’s close to everything! It’s a cute little place tucked away on a quiet street. Even with 3 units in the building we rarely heard our neighbors the entire time and it still felt very private. The area is safe and welcoming. The beach is maybe a minutes walk. St. Armand’s circle is less than a mile, with so many great shops and restaurants. Sarasota is just over the bridge. Eleanora was an amazing hostess! She was very quick to respond and extremely accommodating. We will definitely be back!

This apartment fit our needs for a quick, long weekend in Sarasota. Eleonora was a great host. We used the kitchen for breakfast and lunches and spent most of the time out exploring. There is a park nearby that rents kayaks, ebikes make getting around easy. A 5-10 min walk to the public beach. Great spot.

Great location.

The location of the property couldn't be beat for access to the beach and St. Armand's Circle. However, I would suggest some kind of instruction booklet on how to work the TV and what is required for check out. Also, it would be better if the shower door was fixed so the bathroom floor didn't get wet after every shower.

Will probably return but not perfect. No Umbrella, one outdoor chair broken. Beach chairs are good. Zero instructions about anything in or around the house. Modern Internet TV but no cable. You need a subscription to one of the many services to watch virtually anything. No lighting in the dining area. Clean except for area around both doors. Close to beach and shopping. Nice park about a mile away. Good Internet. Would recommend for 2.

We had an amazing time and the owner was more than happy to answer our questions and let us know to call her if we needed anything else. It was a great place to stay and we’re already talking about booking it next year. Would absolutely recommend staying here.

Very close to beach access. Less than a 5 minute walk to a public beach access. The bed was very soft and wrapped right around you. There were small a/c units in the rental so you were able to adjust each room to your preference. There was a good size kitchen, although we never ate there! There’s too many good dining spots around town! Overall a great rental!

My partner and I just concluded our stay here at playalido. The location of the property is fantastic with a 3 minute walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk into St. Armands circle, we flew in and opted to not get a rental car and we were able to experience everything we wanted to via Lyft or walking, but there is a spot for a car if you chose to bring one. The beach chairs and umbrella were a great touch, very easy to transport to and from the beach and they stay outside on the small front porch preventing inside from getting too sandy. The small kitchen was perfect for us to make breakfast each morning. There was also a washer and dryer outside the bathroom door on the side of the house which was nice to use 1/2 way through the week. The place is small but a perfect size for 2 people and the bed was incredibly comfortable, which is hard to find while on vacay. The property manager was quick to respond with any questions we had, which put our minds at ease. We were so pleased with our stay that if we come back, we will be staying again. You absolutely get what you pay for with this property and I highly recommend to anyone considering.

The apartment was conveniently located within walking distance of the beach and St. Armand’s Square, especially since we did not have a car. We were also able to rent bicycles from a close by location. The apartment was clean and comfortable and filled with sunlight from the skylights. The owner responded quickly to our requests. I would definitely stay here again.
