We enjoyed our stay. The property was neat and perfectly close to the beach. Would stay there again. And we could walk to St. Armand’s Circle!
10.0 / 10.0
I had a few snafus but it doesn't change my review. The studio was just as described, clean, cozy and clean. You can definitely hear those staying above you however if it wasn't for the rain, I likely wouldn't have been inside to hear it. The place is a bit isolated but if you have transportation, the circle is quite close for food and shopping. The beach itself was powdery white and soft and the gulf was gorgeous. Literally a hop, skip and jump away.

This little studio was exactly what was needed to take this get-a-way and BREATH !!!!

Great location right across the street from Lido Beach and half a mile from shopping and restaurants at St Arnaud Circle. Had everything we needed including nice chairs for the beach. The furniture and appliances are all somewhat dated. Mattress was okay, but sinking in the middle. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.
6.0 / 10.0
It was a great location. We were able to check in early. Unfortunately, after that when we reached out to the guest manager as directed by the contract with any issues we never heard from them again. The comforter had stains all over it. We found another comforter in the closet and thankfully we could wash it to ensure have a clean comforter. In the morning we used kitchen sink and noticed there was water on floor. Open cabinet under sink to find a leaking and moldy pipe. Took a picture and sent to guest manager. Did not hear back from them on either issue. We tried to use the sink minimal so we didn’t have to keep cleaning up.Bed and pillows are not the most comfortable, but not the worst we have slept on. The location is PERFECT to beach and the circle.

This is our second time visiting this unit. We noticed some improvements in the kitchen. Sadly the bed hasn’t been replaced and the ice maker was removed. Fortunately we brought ice and we used the two trays in the freezer. We made it work. The bed has decent linens but the mattress needs to go and would be great if it was bigger.
The unit above us was occupied during this stay and boy, you can hear every step. Fortunately, the noise was kept to a minimal. What we love about this studio is how conveniently located is to the “Circle” and the beach. The unit has good amenities that work well with us. I think is lovely to walk into the studio and be welcome with a bottle or wine, chips and Salsa. Such sweet touch. We had a great time. Until our next visit. Thank you.

Beautiful place, perfect for two people! Enjoyed the wine, chips & salsa and cheese that was left for us! Made us feel so special. We were sad there wasn’t a pen to write in the guest book so we could leave our review for the next people. Extremely close to the beach, most definitely walking distance as it’s right across the street. Beautiful outdoor screened in porch, secluded and nice. Perfect studio again for 2 people! If you don’t mind sharing a room with others, if someone had a blow up mattress - would be perfect for people with kids as well or another couple. Super close to restaurants. Also - very close to Lido Key Beach Resort which is open to the public for food and drinks at their tiki bar. This place really felt special! We always stay at Anna Maria Island but decided to venture out and come further down and we will definitely be back! Already looking at availability for later dates in the year. All around a 10/10. Also, chairs are available to bring out on the beach and provided along with coolers and umbrellas. Super convenient if you fly and can’t bring those types of items along with you!

8.0 / 10.0
Very clean! Comfortable and cozy.
The only reason I gave it a 4 star overall review is because of the noise. Unfortunately the lower unit is right under the main house.
You can hear every footstep from the above unit.
I am a very light sleeper, my spouse was not bothered at all.
I would stay again for sure.

Perfect little spot for my wife and I to have a long weekend. It was clean, across from the beach, and a 5 minute walk to St Armand's Circle.
10.0 / 10.0
The apartment is spacious ,well equipped and in a great location opposite the beach and walking distance to shops and bars at St Armands Circle . Only suggested improvements would be a better bed and some garden furniture to sit out in the garden

Just across the road from idyllic beach walks. Close to St. Armands Circle. Private yard was quiet and peaceful . Recommended
6.0 / 10.0
There were missing light bulbs in the living room area.
There were only two wash clothes in the bathroom.
In the kitchen area there were no dish towels towels.
Not sure if what was in the refrigerator was for us (11 cans of beer & 2 containers of yogurt) or left by prior user. What we did not use was left.
There was no automatic lighting when you get to the front door. We had to use light from a cell phone to obtain the entry key.
Our overall evaluation would be average .

Great location across the street from Lido Beach and easy walking distance to St Armand Circle. Lots of super restaurants and good shopping.

Location was great walking distance to beach. We had to reach out 3 x over 1 month span to get Property Mgr Katia to return our request to verify if after Hurricane Ian, our reservation was still available & if we could have early check in, poor communication. Shower had gross glob of hair on drain & floors were sandy, not sure what cleaning fee covered. Bed was small & felt like I was on a boat every time spouse moved. Not our best rental experience. We did appreciate the welcome bottle of wine, chips & salsa, it was a nice touch. We give 3 out of 5 stars.

The location is right across from Lido Beach. Very quiet neighborhood and no issues about safety. Kitchen has everything you need. There are towels, umbrellas, and beach chairs for use. You are a 7-10 minute walk from St Armand Circle. The place is very clean. We had a great time and would definitely come back again.

Perfect location and welcoming host
This unit is perfectly located across the street from one of the best beaches in the US. The unit is cozy and has everything you need for a getaway. We appreciated the welcome bottle of wine, ships and salsa. It is a short walk to St. Armand's where there is a variety of restaurants that will most definitively enhance the overall experience. If you live in Florida, this is the perfect staycation location. We made reservations ahead of time to our favorite restaurants and it was absolutely perfect. No waiting, no uncertainty about where go for dinner. We cooked breakfast every morning, sat outside and enjoyed it with our cup of coffee. You will need to bring your own condiments which I feel is perfect.
tips: bring condiments, and own toiletries as we gals need more shampoo and conditioner. LOL.. I brought my own Spanish aluminum expresso maker, and it was heavenly. Bring groceries as the nearest Publix is not that closed and a bit of a headache to get to once you are settled in. We brought breakfast items, drinks and snacks for the beach and it took care of us for the entire stay. The host was kind to have a bag of ice ready for us and once we turned on the ice maker we were good for the entire stay.
I can't wait to return with my family as we have been talking on and on about what an amazing time we had. Thank you so much!!!!

Peaceful retreat
We loved the location right across the street from Lido Beach. It was within walking distance of dining and shopping at St. Armands Circle. Our condo was the downstairs condo and we only heard faint footsteps upstairs. The attached screened in patio was wonderful.
We’d love to come back after construction is completed in downtown Sarasota.
Our condo was clean and the decor was tasteful.

Perfect location, had everything we needed, bed was very uncomfortable, no sleep for three days
Enjoyed the island, beach is beautiful, condo was nice, but you go in vacation to rest and we never slept

Our vacation
Kitchen was lacking.. We’re short people and cabinets very high. A small collapsible step stool would be helpful. The bed wasn’t the most comfortable. The location was very good and the cleanliness was good.

Relaxing weekend get away
We came to town to celebrate a friend's surprise 75th birthday plus golf and shopping. The studio was clean and well appointed. We look forward to coming back soon!

Great location, property, and host!
This place was fantastic for a couple. Right across from a gorgeous beach, and within walking distance to tons of great shops and restaurants at St. Armand’s Circle. Just stop for groceries before you get on island and you don’t need to get in your car for days. The studio itself was bigger than expected, had a great outdoor space, and had everything that we needed with a fun beach feel to it. The owner and property manager were both very nice and responsive. We could not have asked for more!!!
