What a wonderful little hotel right in heart of Saint Armands Circle. Added bonus is the wonderful housekeeping staff. Definitely would recommend Lido Islander Inn.

No a place for me

When i arrived here Friday night there were Matteras at the street entrance. The TV in the room did not work. The parking lot Is not paved like it shows on hotels.com and the Area where the grilles are overgrown.

Didn’t mind it at all. Close to the beach. Price point seemed a little off but the area really was beautiful

Clean, comfortable, short walk to beautiful beach

Our room was nicer than I expected, after reading several of the reviews. AC worked fine, shower water was cool, but weather was hot so we didn't mind. Hotel provides beach chairs, which we used and appreciated. Beach parking lots were packed, so we loved the location of the hotel. We would definitely stay here again--much cheaper than nearby alternatives.

Everything was perfect! And one of the best things was the owner's understanding and help. Also, the great and nicest Alma orienting me about the area and more. I truly recommend this place for a very pleasant stay!!

Communication was great! This is a very simple basic place to stay for the night. It is walking distance to the beach. The room was very small, but perfect just for one night. Parking was great and safe.
Jamie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It was less than average

When i got there, 3 or4 Matteras were at the street because the county didnt pick them up. The TV didnt work and thats a disappointment. For what they charged it puts a bad taste in my mouth on Airbnbs, so we go 3 times a year and will definitely stay in a hotel. I feel like i didnt get what i paid for

10/10 Exceptional

I rented the 2 bedroom condo - The condo is a little outdated with the furniture it has but it was clean, everything worked. The staff was friendly and very serviceable. The area is very quiet and walkable distance to the beach. They provide 2 beach towels but they are standard towel size I recommend you bring your own. They do provide the very little sitting beach chairs. I definitely recommend the place for a short getaway.

It was spacious. But falling apart. The tub had rusted a hole and water drained out there when you showered and water was all over bathroom floor and under master bedroom floor. Ac kept shutting off, and windows do not close to keep ac in .
Kristi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

All the reviews about this property owner being the Hostess with the Mostest are 100% on point. I made a very last minute reservation which she accommodated with the utmost grace. When the neighboring room kept me awake, she moved me to a different, quieter room. Again, with nothing but the utmost grace. The room was clean and tidy, the bed oh-so-comfortable. I will be back on my next trip to Sarasota. Thank you so much for the over the top hospitality. God bless you and your family.
