Cirque St. Armands Beachside

After a day of sightseeing and walking, this was a lovely place to come back to. The property is quaint and sits on a quiet beachfront street, while still being close to Armands Circle. Our corner room had a view, was comfortable, clean, and well appointed. The restaurant was amazing and its staff were friendly too. Jillian and Isabel at the front desk were especially pleasant and helpful, five stars for them. Cirque St Armands Beachside has been recently renovated, and we'd happily return to Lido Beach.

The Gulf and white sand beach made for a lovely view from our room. The hotel has had a beautiful new renovation, and all the staff we encountered were helpful and friendly. Check-in and checkout were quick and smooth. St. Armands Circle, with plenty of shopping and places to eat, is very close by. A wonderful experience all around.

Jillian was a terrific host, and Desiree made us great drinks at the lobby bar. Dawn also booked us a table at the fantastic restaurant. We loved the thoughtful decor, which reflects the Ringlings and Sarasota's circus history, and everything felt top notch. The location on Lido Key is hard to beat, near both St. Armands and Lido Public Beach. We'd absolutely recommend this hotel and loved our stay.

We spent our evenings enjoying the sunsets and drinks at the hotel bar, and ate at the restaurant twice. The food was great, and Janson kept us company on many late nights with funny conversation and very good drinks. The place has a great feel, it's small, service is exceptional, and the location is fantastic. We'll be back!
