Great place for a family stay. Walked to the beach and St. Armand’s. Really appreciated the heated pool since January was unusually cold. House had everything we needed.

Convenient and Clean!
Convenient Lido home with extremely private yard. Home was clean and organized. Our family of five included 3 kids ages 5-8. The home was spacious for our small family. We were able to easily walk daily to the beach and downtown dining with small children. (Less than 10 min for both).
It was equip with ample amount of towels and ikea kids plates/cups. Lacking cutting board, no extras like dish soap, toilet paper, salt, pepper….be prepared to bring or buy your own.
No garage but storage closet had about 6 beach chairs, wagon and an umbrella. It was basic but in good working order. The alarms on the sliding glass albeit protective had dying batteries and poor adhesive from sun damage. They went off and were deafening. While safe for kids…we had to call for maintenance.
We scored a deal (booking a week out) so the value of the home matched our needs. Had I paid peak spring break Prices, the stay would have been over priced. The home wasn’t flawless. But For me clean and convenient wins!

Great location
The house is ok. It could have been cleaner. Up on the roof deck, there were dirty dishes left. There was a towel on the roof. Uncomfortable chairs on roof top deck. Dirty spoons/ serving utensils were in the kitchen drawer.
The location is great. Furnishings nice. Beds comfortable
