The temperature was perfect. The welcoming atmosphere of the home was so nice. The quiet serene neighborhood and location were just what we were looking for. The rooms and pool area were much larger than we expected and a pleasant surprise. This was our first visit to Venice,FL and plan to return for another family vacation. The beaches were clean and quiet and everyone was friendly. We appreciated the family friendly atmosphere.

Lovely home for a getaway

We had a lovely visit to Venice. The location of the house is ideal for being close to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. The pool was my favorite. It’s large enough to swim laps for exercise and the water was warm enough to really enjoy. The house was perfect for our girls getaway.

Great Property

Really enjoyed our time in Venice at Villa Sorento. The pool was just a perfect way to wind down at the end of the day and the house was well-outfitted for a large group. My only complaint would be that the house's communal areas are a bit small, but the outdoor space makes it easy to spread out. Check-in and check-out were a breeze!

Overall very nice

Very clean, nicely decorated, comfortable beds. Near the beach and other amenities. Quiet neighborhood. We stayed in September so off season price made it a good value. Pool was nice but could be challenging for young kids (no railing to hold on to and no side ledge around) however, outdoor area was nice, especially for larger groups.

We loved this place and would definitely come back. It was clean and cool. Beds were comfortable. Pool was fabulous. We enjoyed the beach provisions (chairs, sifters, wagon). Check in was easy. You can walk to the beach from this place, but we did not. The beach was fairly empty so we found it much easier to simply drive there with our stuff and park. It’s a 5 minute drive. We especially enjoyed Caspersen Beach.

The exterior is the eyesore of the neighborhood, but inside was fine. Pool is rectangular and goes from 4-8' so we really liked that. The front and back doors need work and are difficult to lock. There are some electrical problems with switches in the kitchen area. Other than that, the place was great. Could use some more hooks or hangers for wet bathing suits and towels. Had lots of features and supplies we never had time to use. Host was great, neighbors were nice.

Everything you need, comfortable, quiet

Everything you need to be comfortable was available and the blue island colors were right out of Mamma Mia. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were cool and comfortable. TVs in each room were a great way for teenagers to separate and unwind after a busy beach day. The pool and ping ping table were a delight! All the beach chairs, toys and umbrellas especially were awesome additions and made a long beach day possible. All that was missing were a cooler and boogie boards so bring those items. Otherwise, everything you need is here! Coffee maker, beach towels and all kitchen and bathroom towels supplied. I wish we could have stayed longer. Beautiful, simple, sweet house and quiet neighborhood, close to everything and everywhere for an awesome Gulf beach vacation. Very happy with our stay.

Nice stay - cold pool

The location was great and the house was well maintained. Everything was as advertised. Our only issue was that the pool was unheated making it unusabel during our stay. When we inquired we were told this was disclosed in the listing, but evan after looking back at the VRBO listing we could not find any mention of the unheated pool. It could be made more obvious.
