Best vacation spot yet.
Sue worked very hard on restoring this property after the hurricanes. It was beautiful on the inside. It was very spacous with all new furnishings. The location is within walking distance to the beach, food, drinks, and shopping. The only downside was having to leave. We cannot recommend this place enough.

Promised Paradise? Promises Kept!
I loved my Sabbatical at Chasing Sunshine! For Labor Day I could have spent a week anywhere in the Continental United States but chose Lido Key at St. Armand’s Circle for its unrivaled mixture of tropical beauty and rich history of this Ringling Brothers Island home. The mansions are breathtaking and tooling around on E-bikes is the best way to see it all! Thank you, Sue, for going out of your way to make sure that I was always alright as a lone guest. I AM coming back soon, since I reside just a half hour away! This truly was Paradise.

Impressive!
This was our first time staying at Chasing Sunshine on Lido Key and our first experience with VRBO as well. Our host, Sue, was very easy to work with and promptly responded to emails and texts. The check-in and check-out was a breeze. The condo itself blew us away. It was clean, comfortable, and cozy. We spent 6 nights on Lido Key and this place was truly a home away from home, literally just bring your clothes and hygiene products. Anything else you could possibly need is already there! The neighborhood is quiet and it's a very short walking distance to the beach. The beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach bag, and towels were provided by the host. The 5 min. drive to St. Armand Circle is a must visit for shopping and dining. We have already began thinking about our next trip to Lido and plan on staying here again!

Had a great time!!!
I had a delightful experience at Lido Beach. The proximity of the beach was highly convenient. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that they thoughtfully provide various beach essentials, such as beach caddies, coolers, and sunblock, in case visitors forget their own. The overall cleanliness of the area was commendable. The ambiance was serene and peaceful, conducive to relaxation.

An absolute must stay in Lido Key- beautiful home and great location!
Wonderful stay, Sue thought of all the amenities to make it an enjoyable stay without having to think of what to bring. Beach chairs, umbrella,cooler,travel cart! Everything was fully stocked. The walk to the beach was a short 4 minutes down your side street! Location was easy proximity to Dr. Armand's, Downtown Sarasota. Enjoyed walking to paddle boarding at Mangroves right down the road. Ebike tour at Myakka state park and eating at great restaurants within walking distance or a quick drive.
