Our stay was excellent! The house was extremely clean and well organized. The house is centrally located. Comfortable beds and excellent pool deck area. Owner has lots of vacation essentials present and well labeled which was very appreciated.

The house was perfect for out stay with our grandsons, clean and stocked well. Close to the beaches and old historic Venice was a short drive with plenty of places to dine. We would definitely choose this home again!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house was very nice and we LOVED the pool area!

A beautiful and well appointed home, convenient to beaches, shopping, and restaurants. Birgit’s home is immaculate and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Our family had a wonderful time, and we especially enjoyed the pool area. We would love to stay again!

Very clean and organized. Pool was amazing and anything you need for your stay you can probably find there. Easy access to beaches, dining, grocery and shopping.

Everything was very nice and relaxing, we had all we needed to enjoy our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Happy Gator. The house was as described and well taken care of. The nearby park and walking/bicycling trail was great and the Venice area was enjoyable. We plan to stay there again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Happy Gator. It was perfect for our trip to Venice to sight see and visit family. The property is very well maintained and everything is very organized. The house also had a lot of items to help make your stay even better like items for the beach and bicycles. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking to visit Venice, Fl.

The pictures really don’t do it justice. It was very close to several beaches, and we visited many of them. The only thing I disliked about the property was the sulfur smell of the water. It is quite strong and makes the house smell of sulphuric as well.

The house was very clean neat , inviting well appointed, a positive experience! Pool was exceptionally clean! No complaints!

Great property in a great location. Pool and pool areas were perfect. Well appointed and SUPER clean. The owners have really thought of their guests and provided clear and detailed instructions for pretty much everything. The local property manager was also super helpful. Highly Recommend! Would stay again!

House was just as shown on the listing. My family had an amazing time staying at this house! Beds were comfy, there were lots of towels, and everything we needed was there for our use. Pool was perfect for the kids and the shaded area was a nice place to relax in the evening. Definitely recommend this vrbo!

Wonderful experience.

This was a great property! We had easy access to everything and had all that we needed. Great people to work with!

My friends from work and I went. The home was immaculate. Plenty of room inside and outside. We loved the pool area. We loved the simplicity of how the home was decorated. It was centrally located. We visited all the beaches and Gasprilla island. I would definitely return to this home. Was so worth it.❤☀️☀️

It was a relaxing and restful week

This house was wonderful for us, and is located very close to many beaches on the west coast. We primarily visited beaches and used the pool, and everything was great. The house is furnished with way more than we actually needed, so I imagine it would make just about any family very happy. Nothing went wrong while we were there, so we were very happy with our stay. We'd certainly stay there again if we traveled back to the area.

Lots of space - beautiful outdoor area with a nice clean pool. Prompt reply from Property Manager.

We, grandparents from Ohio scheduled a reunion with our son, daughter-in-law and 4 year old grandson from California to enjoy the Florida sun and surf. Birgit's home was perfect for our group to be very comfortable. Her pool was great and her house is stocked with so many towels, pool toys and kitchen tools. Loved it!

This property has everything we were looking for in a vacation rental! Close to beaches and shopping, all the while being in a quiet location away from tourists. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed and the attached heated pool was a hit for the kids. Brigit and Renee were awesome to work with. They were kind, flexible and quick to respond. We are already planning to book more stays here!

Awesome

We enjoyed our stay very much. The property was in a residential neighborhood close to the beaches and restaurants. The house had all the amenities we could ask for including pool and was top notch as far as cleanliness and hygiene goes.

Had a great time with my wife. House was clean, organized, and exactly as described.

What a wonderful way to celebrate our recent retirement. Loved the heated pool, aka: our shelter from Tropical Storm Eta.

Liked the central location and the ability to put our feet in the swimming pool. Loved the ledge design pool with Adirondack chairs.

Very Happy

Everything about this house was exactly as featured in the VRBO listing! Great 1 week stay. Private pool, neighborhood extremely quiet, outfitted with everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Venice is AMAZING! The house was super clean! Well organized. The pool was beautiful and we loved the fence around it for our kiddos. The beds were comfortable. The overall home was beautiful and conveniently located near all the best beaches, restaurants, & shops. Birgit was very accomodating, and her property manager Rene was there in a hurry when we needed something. There were lots of thoughtful extra’s (toys for the kids, beach equipment, etc) We would definitely come back. 😊 Thank you for a wonderful vacation Birgit! My family and I enjoyed ourselves.

we truly like the fact that it was 10 min drive to the beaches near by. They have a great pool, the inside of the house had everything you will need. The only down side is the check in being at 5pm. You don't really have too much time to do anything , most places check is at 2pm which will give you sometime to enjoy the beach or the pool. Overall its beautiful home, great pool and great communication from the property manger. We would stay again if we had a chance. Thank you. Sincerely Ayala family

Pics were accurate. House was clean. Pool area was great. Perfect location.

Villa Happy Gator exceeded our expectations. The house was very clean and well stocked. Check in and out was extremely easy. The pool was great for the 4 adults and our 6 and 11 year old grandkids. They spent many hours in it. The house is very close to many beaches and to the ferry to the private beach. We appreciated the ferry pass coming with the house rental. Birgit was very easy to work with and quick to respond to all our questions. We all agreed this was an excellent vacation rental and would stay here again.

We have rented this house for 3 days. But 1 day payment is waste because check-in time is 5pm and check-out time is 11am. Also the last day thre pool circulation system was not working. We couldn't use the pool. We have rented this house bc of privacy. One day, pool cleaner guy came suddenly and spent half an hour for cleaning. Our 1 day price went to cleaning time and we paid 1 extra for cleaning. We arrived here around 2:30 and no one was here for cleaning. They arrived around 3 and text us back that they are done around 4:15. In one of the emails they informed us to wash towels and bed sheets, dishes, tidy up, throw the garbage, clean the oven etc. The plus sides are the house has all the kitchen ware, towels, even shampoo and stuff. If you are okay with using those you can just pack your clothes and food and spend your time here. There is a free pass for the beach. There are bicycles. It is closed to wawa and walmart. Overall, the trip was not soo bad but i feel like the extra fees are a bit too much for the service you get. Normally when you go to a hotel for 3 nights, it becomes like 4 days but here 3 nights are like 2 days.
