Our family of 8 stayed at Shore Thing in Lido Key for a week. The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious. The room layout was perfect for our group and offered enough privacy for everyone. Each room has its own private bathroom which was also great. The pool area was private and the shaded areas around it offered the perfect escape from the sun after mornings at the beach. The beach is a short walk from the property and St. Armand's Circle is very close. The house offered everything you could need for a large group. Communication with our property manager was great. Leading up to our trip they provided every detail that you could think of and were quick to answer any questions. The check in process was easy and our property manager gave us a full tour, overview of the property and was great about communicating throughout our trip to help answer any questions. We will definitely be back!

Our family vacation of 14 was absolutely amazing. The house did not disappoint. Having the elevator for my elderly dad made things so much easier for him. He was able to enjoy all levels of the home. The pool was amazing and the property management team response time was fast and quick to address questions. Would absolute stay again and continue to make family memories!

I’ll start by saying this property is overall great. The home is well laid out w nice bedrooms, and the # of bathrooms is amazing. The “soft” product - kitchen items, towels, etc is the best I’ve ever experienced in breadth, quantity & quality. The property is clearly expertly managed, w quick communication & incredible cleaning (seriously, the home seemed brand new upon arrival). Now for the caveats / negatives — most important, the home has a fairly significant issue with sound. Maybe due to an overall lack on insulation when it was built, alongside the use of thin doors, minimal thick fabrics/furnitures, and the high ceilings (which we otherwise LOVE of course). You can hear a person speaking on the opposite side of the home, on a floor above/below. If you’re traveling w a group who goes to sleep/wakes up at the same time, this will be no issue whatsoever. We had some earlier risers (kids) & later sleepers (not their parents) and this was impactful, as you really can’t sleep later than the first person who wakes up and walks around / uses the home. We found similarly that you could hear people in the pool next door from the upper br, as an example (and they weren’t being particularly loud). Additionally, the water pressure throughout the house is very, very weak. This really is a great home, but not knowing about the sound “issues” in other reviews was a surprise. Assuming it’s not a problem for you, this is a 100% recommended rental. Amazing location, layout, and more
