We chose this home for its proximity to the beach as well as it having a swimming pool. Neither disappointed. The house itself had everything you’d need to enjoy a relaxing trip. Kathleen, the owner, was lovely and responsive the entire trip. We will be staying again ❤️

Entry into the home was quick & easy. Ac was not working properly the first two days of our stay so it was quite hot but Kathleen went above and beyond to rectify/resolve the situation and did get the AC fixed. The family really enjoyed playing the life & farkle games provided. We hoped to play taboo also but unfortunately it smelled like urine 😬 The separate AC unit in the master was fabulous and kept the temp great in there. Master bed is like sleeping in a ditch & really needs to be replaced. The house itself(broken lamp/closet door) & kitchen pots/pans could use some updating/care/sprucing up. The couch was super comfy! The close access to several beaches was very convenient! We found lots of cool sharks teeth & enjoyed the shopping & pastries. The kids enjoyed the pool. Kathleen is incredibly sweet & you can tell she really cares. For the price it did the trick.

Property was exactly as listing described and close to everything. As a first time renter I was nervous, but Kathleen was quick to answer my many questions and offered helpful tips about exploring the area. We met the neighbors who are very nice. Highly recommend this property!

Overall this is a nice home in a quiet and nice neighborhood. Close to all of the essentials and short drive to all the beaches! Kathleen is a wonderful and understanding host that assisted with our issues quickly!

This house is close to everything. The pool was a big hit when we weren’t at the beach the grandkids were floating in the pool.

Great experience. Kathleen was easily reachable and anxious to assist in any way possible.

This was our first time to spend a week in Florida ( to get away from cold Pennsylvania winters). We just loved the house. We are thinking about relocating maybe some day in the future. I told my husband if this was our house I would be packing tomorrow to move south. It was very well stocked with anything we needed. The pool was area was delightful. We have friends that do the winter in Florida. They came over one afternoon and enjoyed our lovely pool with us. The neighborhood is very quiet. I took walks every morning. But we were close to many restaurants and places to shop. A+++ place to stay! I’m sad that it is already booked for next year.

Had a great month staying here. Location was perfect. Pool was beautiful(too cool to use). Kathleen was very responsive to any of our needs and questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay in Venice was great. Most of the local beaches are about 10 minute drive from the house. The pool area was perfect to relax after the beach and hang out during the evening rainstorms. We would come back again, thank you for your hospitality!

Kathleen is amazing to deal with. Fast response. Had a wonderful time.

Overall, the property was clean and well kept. There was everything that you would need for a great vacation. Kathleen was a super host, and very easy to communicate with. She was quick to respond if we needed anything at all.

Kathleen and I had some lengthy conversations about this property, all in all she resolving the issue at hand . She is quick to respond to any issues and the as a hole it is a good value.

We loved the property pool and location

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. House was well stocked with anything you would need on vacation. Easily accessible to foods, stores, grocery and most of all THE BEACH. The ferry is a must, beach was not crowded. We found an abundance of shark teeth and sand dollars between 3 beaches close to the house. Kathleen is a great host and very quick to respond with any and all questions. We arrived one day earlier than expected and we were able to go ahead and check in.

We really enjoyed our stay in Venice. The house was everything it was advertised to be and it was especially nice to arrive to a house stocked with all the necessities. The pool area is just great with both shady and sunny areas to enjoy. The location is excellent - close to everything yet is in a nice residential setting perfect for evening walks. Having access to the South Venice Ferry is a real plus for beach days. We cannot say enough positive things about our dealings with Kathleen. She was very responsive to any queries and a real pleasure to deal with. Thanks again for a great stay!!

We love the house. The host was awesome got very fast response to my questions. We will return

Clean and exactly as website shows on vrbo

We really enjoyed staying at this house with our family. We picked the location so we could enjoy the beach on our relax days away from Disney, Universal and Sea World. Everything we needed was available at the house. There was plenty of room for us and the pool was a nice touch. The communication with the owner was very easy. Response was always timely and helpful. My family would love to rent this property again.

Loved staying at this home! Would definitely recommend this place!

Kathleen's home was as advertised. We enjoyed ourselves so much! Everything was close by and central. We would stay there again!

The home is in a quiet neighborhood with quick access to Hwy 41 and was very clean inside and out. The pool area is a great size and will seat at least a dozen around the pool. The kitchen is well stock with just about anything you need. This one is on our repeat visit list. We will definitely look at this one first when staying in the Venice area!! The owner was extremely responsive whenever we had a question, with responses in usually 10 minutes. Fantastic all around!

This house was perfect for our stay in Venice. We loved the private pool and patio and spent most of our time out there enjoying the beautiful Florida sun. The location can't be beat. You are literally 5minutes from all that Venice has to offer. The South Venice Beach Ferry pass is an absolute treat! Not only does this house come with a private pool it comes with access (for up to 6 people) to a basically private beach! Overall I cannot thank Kathleen enough for opening up her home to us and providing such a fantastic little piece of paradise!

Excellent experience

The property is well maintained and had everything we could need! The pool was really nice to be able to relax around in the evenings and when staying in from going out to eat. Our three daughters(ages: 3 and twin - 1 year olds) really enjoyed the pool and toys/noodles available. It is a short 8-10 minute drive to the beach. We always park next to “Sharky’s on the Pier” and access the beach through there. It is also a great place to grabs drinks and lunch on the beach.
