Great Home

We had a great stay at this lovely Venice home. The kids enjoyed the pool and the beds were super comfy. The owner was very responsive with any questions we had and the house was bright and spacious. Our favorite activity was searching for shark's teeth on Venice beach. We hope to return again!

Wonderful place

My friends, family, and myself were extremely happy with the house, host, and pool! We couldn’t have been happier. Our host went out of her way to help. Will definitely come back. The grandkids lived in the beautiful pool. The landscaping was beautiful as well. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Florida Vacation

Kathleen was incredibly kind and helpful leading up to and during our stay. The home is very well appointed with lots of extra spices and dry goods. The pool is definitely well maintained. The location is helpful because you are 10-15 minutes to anywhere in Venice you'd like to go. A nice home base for your vacation.

Wonderful winter retreat!!

We loved our stay at this property! The house was exactly as stated and shown. It was spacious, very clean and had everything we needed for our stay! Kathleen was great to work with…very responsive and was quick to address any needs. We had a dishwasher issue and she immediately had someone there to check it out…it was quickly replaced. One of the true highlights of this property is the pool! Large, clean and warm! LOVED it! Would recommend this property!

Nice Home in a Very Convenient Location

Our stay went quite well. The home was very clean and met all of our needs. It was a great location for trips to downtown Venice and the beach, but also in venturing out for longer excursions. The neighborhood is quiet and well kept. Our only complaint was with the unseasonably cold weather that we encountered while we were there. We definitely would consider a repeat visit sometime in the future.

Beautiful Home in South Venice

We had a lovely time at this property. It was very clean, large, very well decorated and had such a homey feel. We had a blast in the pool, admired the fire pit in the backyard (tho it was too hot to use it), and enjoyed the large beds in each room. The home is centrally located to all sorts of activities, and was perfect for our bridal party to crash in for a few days. A very comfortable stay!
