Spending Christmas at Lido Beach Resort in Sarasota was a gift from my husband. We had a lovely and relaxing stay. In the little village of Saint Armand, there were plenty of restaurants and shops open even during the Christmas holiday. The dining in the hotel itself was exceptional. The food was hot, fast, and delicious in spite of the incredible crowds. I do recommend making reservations if you have a particular time that you want to eat if you are there during a busy time. We ended up sitting at the bar, which worked out well for us. There was a full service tiki bar at the pool area, which was open till 8 PM every evening while we were there. You could get food there as well as a bistro in the lobby. There were two beautiful, clean pools, one for adults and one for families. The adult pool had two hot spas. The pool and beachside staff were attentive and helpful. Carefully read the resort fee features. We reserved a chair which was included, but no one mentioned that the umbrella was not included and we were charged $15/day for them. Unfortunately, we booked one of the last available rooms, which was listed as a “standard” view. It was overlooking the air-conditioning units on the roof. Looking over the top of the building, we could see the bay, but since we were on the backside of the building, we could not see the beach. However, everything else about our stay was wonderful and we didn’t spend any time in the room anyway! It was just a beautiful time altogether!

Unable to get WiFi/Netflix hook up our phones to the tv’s. Therefore unable to watch football or anything had to just use our phones (disappointed). Also the rooms were wonderful but the beds were very hard sorry. Overall great visit but would be great if the had toppers on beds and better WiFi services to hook up streaming on phones to tv.

Lido Beach is our favorite place. We have stayed at some higher end locations in Sarasota, but they just don’t compare because Lido is directly on the beach. We would recommend it to anybody.

My $500/n room was at best a $200 value, especially after paying their $40 resort fee. This was like a motel 6 room with people walking by your room view then onward to the parking lot. I wrongly assumed that this place's worst $500 night room would be nice. Assume nothing.
