Lido Key is located on a laid back barrier island close to trendy and vibrant downtown Sarasota on the west coast of Florida. The area is known for great beaches, good food, outdoor activities, local attractions and lots of sunshine. We are centrally located on Lido Key a block to the beach and short 10 minute walk to St. Armand's Circle for boutique shopping and numerous outdoor seating restaurants. Downtown is minutes away over the Ringling Bridge.

This new to market second floor bright and sunny island decorated two bedroom one bath unit provides all the comforts you'd expect after a long day at the beach or exploring the local area. With vaulted ceiling, ceiling fans throughout and recessed lighting to set the mood along with the open floor plan it's warm and welcoming and easy to relax and entertain at any time. Located in the quiet and charming Chateau Village condo complex it's one of only 10 units in the complex which is conveniently located on South Lido Key.

Ted Sperling Park is a 5 minute walk and home to some of the best kayaking and SUP in Florida with the Lido Mangrove tunnels. North Lido Beach is home to large colonies of sea birds year round and great beach walks. Downtown minutes away!

This condo is an absolute gem! I stayed from July 31st to August 4th and couldn’t have asked for a better home base in Lido Key. It’s bright, beautifully decorated, and just a block from the beach — plus an easy 10-minute walk to St. Armands Circle for great food and shopping.The space was spotless and cozy, with vaulted ceilings, ceiling fans, and everything needed for a relaxing getaway. I especially loved the peaceful atmosphere of the Chateau Village complex. It felt like a hidden oasis, yet still close to everything.The hosts were incredibly attentive and kind — their care and local insight made a big difference. I highly recommend this listing to anyone looking for a laid-back, beachside escape with charm and convenience!

We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful property. It was clean, cute, and the location was perfect. Situated in a quiet neighborhood with just a short walk to the beach and the shopping and restaurants at St. Armands Circle. It was exactly what we were looking for.

Quick stay for soccer event

We had a soccer showcase in Lakewood Ranch and also had some college visits scheduled down towards Ft. Myers. After looking at some hotels, I decided to check VRBO to see if there were options to give my daughter her own room, which is where we found this spot! The locations was fantastic for the beach and the main part of Lido with restaurants etc. Our property manager/owner was very helpful throughout the stay and is still helping me with various questions I had on the area. Would highly recommend the stay to anybody, whether it be for a quick stay or an extended vacation...well worth it!

Wonderful Condo - Perfect Loc;ation!

We had a great time during our stay at this condo. The condo is super cute, very clean, and just a one block walk to the beach. It is also a quick walk to St. Armands Circle. I didn't know anything about the area before I booked this unit - I was just looking for an escape from the Ohio weather, and something suitable for myself and my 2 kids (ages 21 and 17) and Lido Key / St. Armands was perfect! So many cute shops and great restaurants all within walking distance, without the crowds you might find at some of the other local vacation spots. Jan was a terrific host- providing us with dining tips, info about the area, etc. When we had an issue with one of the bed frames she responded within minutes and had it fixed within the hour. Long story short - don't let the lack of reviews scare you away. The unit is just as it appears in the pictures, the location is wonderful, and Jan is a wonderful owner! Can't wait to come back!

Mini-Vacation for Wedding

My cousin was getting married at the Botanical Gardens so we decided to take advantage of the long Memorial Day weekend to stay at the beach. Great location! We walked to the beach and St Armands Circle. Some of the shops are still closed but still plenty to do day/night. The condo was great, communication with the host was great, very responsive. Do recommend and will stay again.

Perfect Mother's Day Getaway

After a hard year, this was the perfect getaway to celebrate Mother's Day. This space had everything we needed and the communication leading up and during was wonderful. The location was great and we were close to the public beach access and all the good eats St. Armand's Circle had to offer. Looking forward to staying again!

Comfort at Lido Key Condo

This was our first time visiting Sarasota and are so happy we were able to stay in this beautiful condo. The condo is so cozy and clean! It is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for our 5 night stay.We enjoyed our walks to Armand Circle and how close the beach was. The beach chairs, umbrella , towels and wagon were great touches. Beds were very comfortable! Communication was excellent. Location to nearby beaches and trolly stops were great. We hope to visit again.

Overall Nice Property, But the Beds Were Unbearable and pillows weren't great

Overall Nice Property, But the Beds Were Unbearable and pillows weren't great either.We recently stayed at this property in Lido Beach and, overall, the home itself was nice. Unfortunately, the beds were extremely uncomfortable, making it impossible for us to enjoy our stay. The mattresses were so poor that we woke up every morning with headaches and severe back pain. The pillows weren't great either. Despite trying to make it work for the first three nights of our planned eight-night stay, we ultimately had to check into a hotel just to get some rest and salvage our trip.We did reach out to the owner to share our concerns, but the response was disappointing. She mentioned she wished we had told her sooner and said that she would have offered to replace the pillows. The issue was clearly the mattresses and the pillows added to the problem. When we expressed that, she dismissed our experience, saying other guests had complimented the beds in past reviews. She even text the comments from the other reviews. This made us feel like our concerns weren’t taken seriously.The owner did say she would try to rebook the remaining nights and send us a check if she could, but we have yet to receive anything.While the property itself was pleasant, the lack of comfort and the owner’s dismissive attitude made this a disappointing experience for us. Hopefully, future guests have a better experience with communication and comfort.

Walkable Location

Enjoyed our weekend stay at this pretty condo in Chateau Village near St. Armand’s Circle. Five minute walk to the beach, fifteen minute walk to upscale shops and good restaurants on the circle. The condo is nicely decorated and had everything we needed - nice kitchen, fluffy towels, and beach chairs. The owner promptly answered my questions and provided helpful information about the area.
