Beautiful home, the layout is excellent. Proximity to the beach and St. Armands circle is unbeatable. The house also comes with beach chairs, wagon, and cooler which was incredibly useful.

Thanks for the great review. I’m glad the layout worked well and that the location near the beach and St. Armands Circle was convenient. Happy the beach chairs, wagon, and cooler were useful — we’d love to host you again.

The house was as described and spotlessly clean. It's well located with short walks to both the beach and the commercial center nearby. However, for the price, I expected everything to work. Several items had to be fixed - dishwasher, toaster, leaky showers (poorly installed), dryer. The host was very responsive and items that could be resolved same day, were.

Sarasota Family Vacation 2025
Vitamin Sea was the perfect house for our family vacation. The property management company was the best I have ever worked with. The house itself was so clean. Kudos to the cleaning company. The house is very close to the beach. Just a short walk.

Great house in a perfect location
We stayed here for a family reunion and it was perfect for our group of 12. Every room had its own bathroom and a comfy king bed, which made the stay super relaxing. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner each night, and there was plenty of space for everyone to sit together.The waterslide was a hit with both the kids and adults, and it was such a nice place to come back to after the beach. Management was really responsive with any questions we had.The only small thing – the dryers weren’t working properly. Maintenance came out quickly and helped with an interim fix, but they probably need a deeper clean to get them working properly.
Joel - Posted: 7/5/2025
Hi, Joel, thank you for your detailed review of our property. We're delighted to hear that your family reunion was a success and that you found the accommodations comfortable and well-equipped. We appreciate your feedback regarding the dryers. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back again in the future. Thank you, Lido Key Vacations

Amazing Stay
We had the most amazing stay at this rental. The property management has great communication and was one of the smoothest rentals I have ever stayed in. We will only rent with this property management moving forward because of how great they are. Thank you for an amazing vacation! The pool was the best part and the beds are amazing. We also loved that every room has a bathroom! Highly recommend.

Even Better Than It Looks
This is a great property in a great location. If you think the photos look good - it's even better than it looks. The backyard pool area is an oasis. The house is less than a block from public access beach, even closer to the Lido Beach Resort with a Tiki bar you can treat as your own, and just a few blocks to St. Armand Circle. We are already thinking about when we can go back.

We had an incredible stay. The property is unbelievable (especially having a private bathroom in every room) and despite a significant delay at check in time, the house itself far and above made up for the frustration. We are hoping to be back next year

Amazing property
We LOVED staying at this home and will definitely be back with more family. It had all the creature comforts of home plus more. Short walk to the beach - we loved walking down for the sunsets. There is a tiki bar in the hotel across the street as well for beach food and drinks. We had 4 kids in tow ranging from 6-11 years old - they were on the water slide and in the pool and hot tub at all hours. Kitchen was well provisioned, beds comfortable, and the home is just beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

LOVED!!
We were a group of 3 families that absolutely loved staying at this property and we will be back! Many hours each day were spent having fun in the pool, kids loved the waterslide. The beach is also so close, we were able to walk to the beach, and had easy access to restaurants, ice cream, shopping etc all very close by. The house was stocked with nice kitchen tools and plenty of plates and glassware. The rooms were nice and clean and plenty of bathrooms. The management company was very responsive and easy to get a hold of. Thank you for a great experience!
