The Ritz-Carlton Residences

The Ritz-Carlton Residences on Lido Key is a 12-story, 2005-built luxury condominium complex managed under the Ritz-Carlton brand that offers full-service resort living directly on the Gulf of Mexico. Units are large, primarily two- and four-bedroom floorplans and expansive “Beach Residences” that emphasize open interiors with high ceilings, tray and coffered ceilings, hardwood and travertine floors, custom millwork, wet bars, and walls of glass framing sweeping Gulf and bay views. Many residences include private elevator entries, oversized wraparound terraces, multiple ensuites, den/office space, and generous storage and parking. Common areas and building amenities reflect a resort program: private beach access, heated pool and spa, state-of-the-art fitness center, theater with tiered seating, billiards and game rooms, gathering and board rooms, massage/sauna facilities, and guest suites. Services are comprehensive and concierge-led, including valet, on-site management, and optional Ritz-Carlton Members Club privileges (beach, spa, golf) transferable by membership. The grounds feature tropical landscaping, outdoor kitchens/grills, firepit, tennis courts and a dog run; building systems include hurricane-rated windows/shutters and covered garage parking with additional air-conditioned storage. Located steps from St. Armands Circle and a short drive to downtown Sarasota’s cultural venues, the property combines beachfront seclusion with proximity to dining, shopping and the arts.
