Christmas Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time in Lido Key! The property was beautiful and spacious for our families. The property manager’s communication was so helpful and they were always available via text or call. The sun misses the pool during the winter months, but because it was heated and we had the hot tub, it wasn’t a huge concern!

House was beautiful, spacious, clean, stocked very well in kitchen, beach towels, chairs, wagon! Everything you needed was there! Loved that we could walk everywhere and not have to fight traffic! Only thing I didn’t like was the huge mold area at the pool, where we spend most of our time. It was just an eye sore! I’d still rate 5 stars because everything else was exceptional!

Lido Key Vacations customer service unsatisfactory

House was fine, multiple levels and a bit dangerous steps to them. LKV customer service was not good. Not helpful when trying to assess if there was damage to the house from hurricane. The worst was a 1% tax added after the final payment was made. Personnel were rude in demanding that it was owned. No advance notice of it and lied about sending e-mails. Would not rent from them again. Should note that on the VRBO site as it was not clear until you paid. Pretty disappointing experience overall.

Great property in a lovely neighborhood

The property is large, with several connecting bedrooms with private bathrooms and multi car garage. The photos don’t do it justice. It’s perfect for several families staying together. The neighborhood is fantastic. A short walk to restaurants, shop and the beach, and a short drive to downtown Sarasota.

Spacious home, perfect for big families.

The Shores had everything you need. Beach chairs, beach towels ( we brought some beach towels and didn't even use them and we had 16 people) and bikes, and everything you need for cooking. First floor had washer and dryer and second floor had washer and dryer. Its a very nice house! Carol Birdsell

Wonderful place for family vacation

We just ended our stay at The Shore House for our large family vacation. The layout is spacious and private - and the home is beautifully appointed. The kids loved the pool and the close proximity to the Lido Beach Pavilion - and the adults loved the close proximity to St Armands Circle. We walked to dinner and ice cream every night. We’ll be back!
