Introducing Rosewood Residences Lido Key

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts recently announced Rosewood Residences Lido Key, the brand’s first stand-alone residential project situated along one of the country’s most beautiful beaches off the coast of Sarasota, just a short walk from St. Armands circle. The 65-unit condominium will be completed in 2025, with sales reservations to launch in December 2021. The Rosewood Residences will bring a new luxury lifestyle experience to Florida’s Gulf Coast and the United States at large.

The site is located at 930-1003 Benjamin Franklin Drive and will require the demolition of Gulf Beach Motel and Coquina on the Beach.

“This project marks a major milestone for Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, a brand that has redefined the concept of ‘residential hospitality’ since it first launched over 40 years ago with the transformation of a mansion in Dallas into an ultra-luxury hotel and restaurant,” said Brad Berry, vice president of Global Residential Development at Rosewood Hotel Group. “We have been carefully considering how best to build upon the growth of our residential segment with our first stand-alone Rosewood Residences and are thrilled to have this opportunity to do so in partnership with The Ronto Group and Wheelock Street Capital. Especially now, as lifestyle preferences continue to shift and thereby create an increased demand for the experience that Rosewood Residences provides, we’re proud to bring this offering to the market and to be a part of both Florida’s and the luxury real estate industry’s continued growth and evolution.”
