Cirque St. Armands Beachside
The Holiday Inn Lido Beach Sarasota offers a beachfront location with stunning ocean views, a poolside bar, and a rooftop dining room for breakfast.
Relaxing and the staff were above and beyond, our reservation was in error but the manager was more than gracious to work it out for us. The restaurant manager and bar tender (Jansen) made us feel welcome and went out of their way to be accommodating.
The staff, from the front desk to the housekeeping to the shuttle drivers to the restaurant were gracious, friendly, professional and professional. Each and everyone made you feel that they wanted you to enjoy your stay and would do what was needed to achieve that goal. The room was bright,immaculate. Lovely view of the Gulf of Mexico from the balcony where we had our breakfast delivered by room service most mornings. We tried the restaurant for lunch one day and for dessert and a nightcap on another. The food was quite good and the service excellent. The restaurant is nicely designed to afford feeling of uncrowded intimacy. The shuttle service to St Armands circle and all its shops and restaurants was always prompt operating on YOUR schedule! It also took us to the sister hotel about three minutes away where we had use of their lovely beach, pool and outside dining. By the way, we’ve already made reservations for our next stay in a couple of months!
Could not have been any better, thank you!
All was very good and satisfactory. Mimi and staff are excellent.
