VENICE🌴Heated Pool House💦 7 min to the Beach🌊 Shops&Dining nearby

Family of four getaway We had a great week! Lots of beach time, shark tooth hunting and afternoon pool time. The home was exactly as it was listed: clean and well stocked- beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, sand toys, etc. Communication with the host was easy and efficient through the VRBO app. This was not our first time in the area so we knew where we wanted to go and what we wanted to do. We will be back!

Very pleasant stay Particularly, enjoyed the enclosed outdoor patio and pool area and well equipped kitchen.

Annoying issues ProsQuiet street and only a relatively short drive to the beach.ConsWe arrived to an unsecured property even though they knew our party was a girls trip leaving us feeling uncomfortable. We ran out of toilet paper and dish detergent and was encouraged to buy our own. (There were only two of us.) They eventually Amazon'ed some dish soap, to us, which arrived the evening before we checked out. Found a dirty band aid on the deck of the pool which was gross. The property is billed as having a heated pool, which is why we reserved there, but to use the heater for the pool it's a 140 up-charge! During the first two days, the kitchen and living area smelled strongly of fish and it was clear that the previous guests had been cooking fish there. We asked if there was a candle or spray we could use but were encouraged to go buy our own to deal with our own "sensitivities." It was suggested the odor was red tide, even though the smell was only in the house. We paid almost 2300 for the overall feeling that we were an inconvenience.

Fun We enjoyed the house had a fun time in Venice saw family a great base location the pool was fun and I love the outdoor living room

Venice Value! Our family of 8 loved this house! It had plenty of space and entertainment options for everyone. It was also well supplied with all we needed for a few trips to the Beach. We loved the backyard lanai and the enclosed pool whenever we were around, but best of all this house was beautifully located in close proximity to Venice and other Gulf Coast features. It was only 2 miles from the closest beach and two blocks from the Venetian Waterway Bike Path, with bikes provided. Finally, for a large family like ours one of the things that drew us to this home in the first place was its reasonable price point. Hard to go wrong when you get all this for about the same nightly price as two hotel rooms!

Great experience for our entire family. Enjoy the spring training trip
