So, if you aren't sold yet, let me tell you a little more about the location of this home. It is located in the heart of Lido Key and St. Armand's Circle. It is literally steps away from St. Armand's Circle and all the shops, restaurants, and nightlife it has to offer, and about a 3 minute bike ride, or 9 minute stroll to Lido Key Beach. If you aren't familiar with St. Armand's Circle, well, you're in for a treat because this area is a very well known and high end commercial retail and restaurant area. It is filled with boutiques, restaurants, dessert shops, and nightlife. This is a renowned area and people come from all over to walk the circle, take in the sights and sounds, and enjoy the many offerings of this area. However, you'll be able to walk or bike there and not worry about driving or parking your car, so you can truly enjoy your vacation without concern for the details. If you want even more offerings, Downtown Sarasota is only 2.5 miles from this home, and you can find an even larger supply of retail, restaurants, nightlife, concert halls, comedy venues and more. You can catch a movie, a play or performance at the Sarasota Van Wezel, or just walk down Main Street and pop in and out of dozens and dozens of shops and stores. It is about a $10-15 Uber to downtown - so again, no need to worry about transportation, everything is right there at your fingertips. The home is very short drive or nice bike ride to City Island, where your family can enjoy a day at Mote Marine Laboratory, where you can enjoy the large aquariums, education centers, and aquatic "petting zoos" for an up close and personal nautical experience. You can also visit New Pass Bait Shop to test out your fishing luck or launch a kayak or boat at the boat ramp on City Island as well. There is a small park and beach on City Island as well.

PARKING: 2 Car Garage, and maximum 4 cars in the driveway; Do Not Block the Sidewalk and Temporary Street Parking ONLY (1-hour) - strictly enforced by the City of Sarasota.

Wowed at The Big Top!

Review Date: March 23, 2023

Vacation Date: March 11, 2023

"Upon entering the door, our WOWS began. It was very clean, well equipped and great location. The teens were safely walking or riding the bikes to Starbucks in the morning and Kilwan’s for ice cream in the afternoon. Walking to the beach for sunsets, to restaurants, and just around the area was enjoyed by all. The pool was warm and used for hours every day. Best family reunion ever!!

"I took my large family to Lido Key for a summer trip, and this house was incredible! The Big Top doesn't disappoint. It's a huge house with a big, open floor plan. The pool was a good size with plenty of room for all of us to hang out. The little kids loved the bunk room and my wife loved the huge master bathroom! This house really hit the mark for our family! It's just a few blocks to St. Armand's Circle for dining & shopping. The beach was clean, well kept and only about 4 blocks up the road.

"Stunning! Just stunning… Top notch accommodations. Stylish, lavish, and so much fun. The pool was amazing, the billiards/ foosball room was awesome, and there were even beach cruisers in the garage. The second floor had one of the most impressive and expansive dining rooms I’ve ever been in. I think the table could seat 10+! The kitchen is the kind of kitchen that you’d want to live in. A chef’s dream! The bedrooms were luxurious and welcoming. The beds were the kind that you just sink into. The bathrooms were even pretty spectacular. The details were in every corner. Now, get this, there’s a third floor! More beautiful rooms and views. This place was indeed over the top gorgeous!

Awesome “Big Top” House

Review Date: July 20, 2020

Vacation Date: May 26, 2020

"We had a great time staying in this house on Lido Key with 11 family members. The house has a great layout and allows plenty of room to space out. The pool/spa and outdoor covered game room were a big hit. Trevor the property manager was great to work with and always responded immediately when we needed something. I would rate 5 out of 5 stars. We look forward to visiting again in the future!
