We just loved everything about this property! It was centrally located to pretty much everything we needed and my little dog loved the back yard. Our host was very communicative and friendly. We will definitely be back :)

We had a wonderful stay at this property for a weekend getaway. Clean, ready, and with lots of 'extra' fun stuff above and beyond the normal expectations. The Florida room at the rear of the home has a great selection of vinyl records, there's several board games, and a more-challenging-than-anticipated putting green to pass the time. I really enjoyed not only the ease of check-in, but also the ready communication from the property hosts. Also they provided a video before check-in that made me look like a remote-expert in front of my kids. I'd like to also mention that this property includes enough shark-teeth-hunting-gear to go searching at the beach near the home, and that there are not one but TWO pack-n-plays in case you're bringing the littlest guests with you. As a parent of two toddlers, this would've been a wonderful added feature a couple years ago. This time, the boys really enjoyed the second bedroom and bathroom included in the property. If you're looking for a solid place to stay, quiet area, and excellent hosts--look no further and grab this place while it's available! Happy travels!

Beautiful home

One of the cleanest VRBO rentals I have ever stayed at. There have been more than a few that i have walked in and said "the pictures make it look a lot nicer than it is." Not this one, it is great. Another VRBO first. The owner sent me a video virtual tour including how to use the TV remotes. Have a family putting contest while making real popcorn in the circus popcorn popper. We didn't use the outside firepit but i am sure enjoying cocktails around the fire while the streaks are cooking on the grill is a big hit. Since we come to Venice regularly to visit family, we'll be back!

Nice little beach style home with a split plan, so going with another family you have privacy. ITs a very quiet neighborhood. The steps to the shamrock beach is better to drive a mile down the road and unload at the park. we did this and were able to ride our scooters at the beginning of the legacy trail. You are located 5-10 minutes from basically everything, including sharkys, old downtown, movies, food, etc. We will definately book here again for another stay in Venice.

About the host

Hosted by Heather Paquette

Host profile image
My husband Paul and I absolutely love all that Venice has to offer. Paul was born and raised in Venice and knows all of the best local restaurants, shops and hidden gems! We are happy to share our home with you and want you to feel comfortable and relaxed during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We love the proximity to the bike trail, Venice Ave and Caspersen Beach. It’s an easy walk or short drive to so many shops and restaurants that it makes the house very enjoyable. We also love the quiet setting of the neighborhood and great people!

What makes this property unique

Our property stands out as it contains character with our decor and amenities and is not just your cookie cutter rental. Inside we have a comfortable open setting with a record player, mini putting green and popcorn maker. The dining room table provides a perfect space to set up a laptop for work. The bedrooms are bright and very comfortable. Outside the fully fenced backyard has many lush native plants, including an avocado tree. Our location is convenient to everything. One of my favorite amenities is that the trail is within walking distance. If you enjoy shark tooth hunting, Caspersen is only a bike ride away.
