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.

I don't usually write reviews but I had to acknowledge the wonderful staff and experience we had here! At check-in, the staff are friendly and we received a delicious strawberry drink. The view was incredible and having access to the beach and lounge chairs was simply heavenly. Lido Beach is quiet and the Gulf is calm, so it's perfect for kids and families. I loved sitting by the pool, reading, and ordering food - it felt like a real vacation! We walked to St Armand's Circle where they have wonderful restaurants and shops, but the hotel also provides a very convenient shuttle. Chocolates on the pillow and bed turn-down service was appreciated - it added a special level of care. We absolutely loved our time there and can't wait to return!
