Ripple Inn: Lagoon pool, shark toothing gear, bikes -½mi to Manasota beach ferry

Discover South Venice's secret micro-resort coastal getaway! This plush, pet-friendly, and peaceful (2-bedroom) home (~3-lot estate) offers a heated lagoon walk-in pool amidst pristine tropical surroundings at a prime location—just half a mile to the local South Venice Beach Ferry, which leads to the exclusive private beach on Manasota Key (accessible only to locals and Fennario Resort's guests—i.e., you).

Venice is waiting for you at this marvelous 2-bedroom house. With 2 queen beds, a cozy office space with a sofa bed, and a sleek bathroom with a shower, this property has everything you need for a superb stay.

A coastal sanctuary for making memories on a family budget. "Ripple Inn" @ Fennario Resort is one of two available listings that access the resort’s premium amenities. Its charm, character, and comfort provide a surprising alternative to the typical "cookie cutter" rentals you'd find elsewhere. Inquire further if you would like to book out the full resort for larger families' gatherings and events.

Whether you're here for a beach vacation, shark teeth hunting, a family trip, or a remote work retreat, this home and micro-resort have everything you need for a comfortable and stress-free stay.

Searching For A Hidden Paradise? Look no further!

What an incredible stay! This VRBO is an absolute hidden gem—truly one of our favorite finds ever. From the moment we arrived, we knew we’d stumbled onto something special. Brian, the host, was hands-down the kindest and most thoughtful host we’ve met (and we’ve traveled a lot). He made us feel so welcome and went above and beyond to make our stay smooth and stress-free.The house was gorgeous—full of laid-back beachy vibes that immediately put us in vacation mode. The pool and outdoor space were a total dream: sparkling clean, surrounded by tropical touches, and stocked with tons of pool toys that kept the kids (and let’s be honest, the adults too ) happily entertained for hours. The loungers/hammocks were comfy, and the whole space just felt calm and relaxing.Location-wise, it couldn’t have been better. Just 8 minutes to Manasota Key (our go-to spot for shark tooth hunting!) and about 10-12 minutes to Caspersen Beach. We came home with a bottle full of shark teeth and huge smiles.We’re leaving with full hearts and so many sweet memories—and already planning our next visit. This place is a true gem, and I’m so grateful we found it.
