Sandcastle Resort at Lido Beach

I put out the "please clean my room" sign at 8am and at 1:45, the room had yet to be cleaned. The bathroom was old and needs serious updating. The view and area is wonderful

Got to the hotel about a half hour before check in and was told my room would be ready at 3 pm, check in time. Front desk attendant took my cell number to let me know when my room would be ready. By 3:30 I had not heard from the front desk so went to lobby to see other people checking in. I asked about my room and was told it still wasn't ready. I was not happy since it was now more than an hour since I had first checked on the room and to see others being given their rooms made me upset. The attendant checked with her supervisor and they found a room on the other side of the hotel away from the pool view I had booked.

This is a resort I use to pool hop at 45-50 years ago, and the rooms still look basically the same. We were in a room facing the parking garg. I was okay but everything was so old. Lamp on desk, and hair dryer didn't work at all, never reported it as I brought my own hair dryer. NOT enough outlets to charge laptop/phones. If you mounted the tv on the wall, there would be more space. Beds were a bit hard, pillows were just okay. LOVED the fact it was right on the beach, Tiki bar was GREAT, and breakfast was good! The front lobby was nice, as were those that checked me in and out. A bit over priced for the room, but I will return one day soon :)

Great location to Armand’s Circle with excellent shuttle service around the key. Hotel room was not ready by check in time but upgraded due to inconvenience. Grounds needed cleaning, repair, paint etc and not enough chairs & umbrellas for busy Easter weekend. Overall comfortable and reasonably priced.

What a great place. I read the reviews, some negative ones. but so glad I went. location is perfect, right on the beach. two pools, volleyball, ping pong, shuffleboard. all right out the door of your room. yes its dated, but who cares you are on the beach. happy hour at the tiki bar was super cheap. free shuttle to the circle. which is great, cause the parking there is horrible. I would stay here again, for the price to be on the beach. cant beat it.
