“The Powel Crosley Estate was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding! Every part of the property is stunning, and we loved being able to use different areas for each part of the day—our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception each had their own unique setting, which made everything feel so special and well thought out.

The event staff was fantastic and made every transition seamless. We didn’t have to worry about a thing—they handled everything with such professionalism and ease.

And the view? Unmatched. The sunset over the water was breathtaking, and we couldn’t have asked for better weather. It was truly the most magical setting for our big day. If you’re dreaming of a romantic, elegant, and beautifully run venue, the Powel Crosley Estate is it!”

“Planned this for my BFFs bachelorette trip. Claudia was a super fun, laid back, and extraordinarily accommodating. The group had a lot of fun! HIGHLY recommend for a giggly group yoga class if that’s the vibe you’re looking for! 11/10 would recommend!”

“The unicorn party is the CUTEST!! We had my daughter's birthday party here and it was a hit. The unicorn pony rides were so precious. The grounds have a big treehouse, swings, and a petting zoo so the kids were occupied. There is also a nice covered patio area with 6 picnic tables and electric power. We had an absolute blast.”

“Cool spot for a private party. It gets a nice breeze through there in the evenings. I suppose it's also the observation deck for all of the rowing competitions that occur here, but my experience was at night, when you couldn't see anything other than the lit tower and party attendants.”

“My wife and I randomly walked into AlexArt International Gallery after a very nice dinner. We were embraced by Fabio and Alexa from the moment we walked in the door. The art was some of the best we have ever seen. We shared some great stories about Italy. We purchased a painting along with Fabio's book who was kind enough to sign it for us. They gave us a special present before leaving which will be displayed in one of our houses. On our next visit to Sarasota we will be sure to stop in again. Liz & Jim.”

“TPC is a great golf facility...both courses are fun and the greens are fantastic. The Players course is an old school Florida course with bends and turns and the Stadium course is more modern. I have played both courses over 25 times each and have always had a great time. The greens are always in great shape. The new short game area has 4 greens to tune up your game inside 30 yards.”

“I thought I had been to just about all aquariums and seen it all. Boy was I wrong when I went to this aquarium. Very very educational. A wealth of information regarding sea life and opportunities to see them up close as they may be in recovery or a permanent residents due to injuries matters. I probably could have stayed there from the time they open till they closed. I highly recommend this place for anyone, whether you're single dating married or on a family vacation. Definitely stop by this place!”

“I do work in the industry to be transparent, but I think its unfair to judge the event by things such as what products at what price the exhibitors display. In terms of the supply and demand, boating is not the only industry still in the process of regaining balance. The folks in the show pay to be there to make contact with people looking to buy what they sell, and many are willing to talk to you even if you are a year away from buying a boat. There is always a list available online of who has signed up to be exhibiting, check the list so you know if there is someone who might have what you want and pre-buy your tickets. Its a beautiful location surrounded by restaurants and shopping for when you are done walking the show.”

“Lido Beach Resort is incredible. They hosted my husband and I’s wedding in May of this year, and Cassidy (and team) did an amazing job bringing our dream wedding to life. If you are looking for a stunning and private beach wedding with exceptional food - this is the place! Our guests loved the food, beach, reception space, and how kind the serving staff was. Our wedding guests who stayed at the hotel too absolutely loved it and all said they would be back for family vacations in the future. The Tiki Bar on site was also a favorite. Thank you Lido Beach Resort for hosting and organizing our wedding. My husband and I will be back again to enjoy the private beach and pools!”

“My husband and I stayed here on our honeymoon. The rooms were modern and clean along with a pristine bathroom. The location can't be beat - in a quiet neighborhood, but easily walkable to Downtown. Staff was always extremely friendly and helpful. We were here during Hurricane Helene and the hotel made every effort to inform the guests of hurricane policies and safety measures. We would definitely stay here again.”
