About this property

Sunsets in Paradise. Walk to beach. Shop & Dine @ St. Armands

Please read our reviews. We are owner operators and It’s our goal to make your time at Lido memorable.

If you’re looking for a quiet beach community and an island lifestyle then you’re at the right place. The unit is fully updated and decorated in island style with a very comfortable king size bed, flat screen TVs in living room and bedroom, and a fully equipped kitchen. What’s really nice is at Lido you can park your car and walk (or bike, & bus) as everything you need is nearby. It’s not uncommon for our guests to taxi in for the week.

Like the outdoors? Lido has parks on the north and south end and the kayak park is two blocks away. The beach is a block away. There's bathrooms and snack bar at the beach also.

Hungry? It’s a 5-minute walk to famous St. Armand’s Circle with 15+ restaurants and upscale boutique shopping. Our favorite spots are at Tommy Bahamas restaurant watching the crowds go by while sipping a martini or on the patio at the Columbia with a pitcher of cava sangria made table side. 8th floor Happy Hour at Lido Beach resort is also a great place to meet the locals.

Night on the town? Enjoy beautiful downtown Sarasota’s fine dining, theater, opera, ballet, art galleries, antique shops, and museums or just pass the time while strolling the shops of downtown Sarasota. Longboat key and Siesta Key are minutes away.

Linens, towels, beach chairs, umbrella, beach bag, cooler and cart provided – just bring your toothbrush!

You name it and its nearby - golf, beach, bike, boat, sailing, some of the best fishing, fishing charters, aquariums, museums, shopping, wind surfing, kite boarding, swimming, great walking areas, theaters, opera, and on and on.

Here is a sampling of what's nearby!

•Ringling Museum (John Ringling was an art collector)
•Segway Rentals (fun way to tour the town)
•Selby Botanical Gardens (amazing display of orchids)
•Mote Marine Aquarium (fish lovers place and great for kids)
•Van Wezel Performing Arts Center
•Marina Jacks (downtown on the water restaurant with a nice outdoor bar)
•Ca’ d’Zan Mansion (John & Mable Ringling house)
•Myakka State Park (gators and airboats)
•Busch Gardens (hour north)
•Sarasota Opera (located in the theatre district)
•Kennedy Space Center (nice day trip)

Two hours to Orlando attractions. Minutes to Sarasota airport and 1 hour to Tampa and St. Petersburg airports, parks, museums, sporting events.

Hidden Gem

We had an amazing time staying at Sunsets in Paradise! It truly was a perfect place for my husband and I to get away for a long weekend and out of the snow! We loved the very short walk to the beach and easy walk to St. Armands Circle where we enjoyed fabulous restaurants. Beach chairs, towels, umbrella and a wagon are provided which made it super easy to walk to the beach. The location is absolutely perfect!!! We loved it so much, we want to book a longer stay next winter!

Great location, clean

Our four nights at Adelaide’s place was a vacation we will never forget. House was located just a 15 minute walk to town and only a few from the clear water beach. When my partner and I first walked into the space, we were amazed by how clean it was. The owners were very responsive as well. Will definitely be returning in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Adelaide and Cheryl

Host profile image
Cheryl and I have been friends for over two decades, sharing countless memories and experiences together. One of our favorite pastimes has always been enjoying the beautiful weather and stunning beaches in Florida. Given our love for the area, we decided to take the plunge and purchase a charming condo by the beaches of Lido Key. This decision was fueled by our desire to have a cozy retreat where we can fully embrace the coastal lifestyle we adore. The condo serves as a perfect getaway for us to relax, unwind, and continue making wonderful memories by the sea.

Why they chose this property

This property is incredibly convenient for frequent travelers, as Sarasota Airport is often our go-to, with Tampa International Airport also being an option if needed. The beach is easily accessible, allowing you to get there quickly without a long drive from the airport. Chateau Village is ideally situated near shopping, restaurants, and outdoor activities that I love, including biking, kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, and diving.

What makes this property unique

In addition to the nightly sunsets on the beach, the area offers a variety of activities and attractions. Nearby St. Armand's Circle is a bustling hub known for its excellent shopping, dining, and live music, making it a perfect spot for an evening out. For those who enjoy outdoor adventures, there are ample opportunities for kayaking, paddle boarding, and bike rentals in the vicinity.

Just a short drive away, downtown Sarasota presents a rich array of cultural experiences. The city is home to numerous art museums and galleries, providing a vibrant arts scene for enthusiasts to explore. Alongside its cultural offerings, downtown Sarasota features an even wider selection of dining and shopping options, ensuring there is always something new to discover and enjoy. Whether you're looking for a relaxing day at the beach, an adventurous outing on the water, or an evening immersed in the arts, this location has it all.
