Place was as advertised! Clean and its proximity to everything was great! Within walking distance to beach, downtown Venice, sharky’s on the pier! We didn’t rent a car didn’t need it!
Absolutely wonderful rental home, very clean and comfortable in a fabulous location close to town and the beaches. One of my best stays in Venice and would highly recommend!
I couldn’t have asked for more from a rental! The owner is incredibly responsive, the house was spotless and had everything I needed, and the location was just blocks away from beaches and downtown! Would definitely stay there again!
This place was perfect for what we needed. Host was accommodating and very easy to reach. Having access to beach chairs and other equipment was a huge bonus. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Thank you very much ! Glad you enjoyed your stay !
Good place. Clean. If it were us, the tile floor needs to be replaced. I took a picture of a spot where the tile was coming up asap we got there. Otherwise it was good.

Thanks Susan
Although our floor was relatively new (4 years) we just replaced it because as you noted it was not holding up well, new light wood colored floor looks great !
We came down for our sons wedding. It was so clean and convenient to all our family,friends, and amentities. Thank you so much

About the host
Hosted by Gayle Callahan
Husband and I bought this place because we just love Venice Island. Beaches are more private than many other in Florida! Park in the dunes! Downtown Venice has real charm to it! Very hometown and friendly community with alot of free or inexpensive amenities which are open to the public (rare in FL). There are no condos or buildings on the closest beaches near us-pure nature, beautiful!!!
Why they chose this property
This property is great because it is completely updated but has that 'Old Florida' feel. Renters come back year after year, mostly repeat business. We keep it super clean, comfortable beachy furnishing and well stocked for your vacation stay.
What makes this property unique
The location is very central to many things, and super quiet, you can hear the church bells ring. This along with cleanliness, relaxing feel and furnishings this is why renters tell me they keep coming back.
