Very nice house with comfortable beds, updated kitchen and wonderful outdoor pool area. Quiet neighborhood close to beach and restaurants. I would definitely book this location again!
We have stayed in MANY VRBO properties over the years. This may have been one of the most comfortable stays yet! It truly was as if we were at our own home - everything you might want is there for your use. Will definitely be staying here again the next time our travels bring us to Venice.
Everything was perfect! The property is very clean and the host was responsive. The pool was fantastic. I would recommend this property without hesitation.
We absolutely loved our stay at the cutest house in Venice! Felt like the perfect getaway for my boyfriend and I. The house was very updated, super clean and we honestly felt at home right away. The pool and backyard area were the icing on the cake - we spent so much time relaxing in the water and enjoying the cozy outdoor space. 10/10 would recommend staying here! We definitely plan to book here again for a future getaway.
The property was clean, comfortable, and the layout was great. The kitchen was well stocked with anything we could have needed. We enjoyed sitting outside on the covered patio in the mornings with a great view of the pool and palm trees.The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe, and is located just a short drive away from restaurants and shopping. We would definitely rent this property again - thanks for the stay!
Updated and well stocked house - kitchen and bathroom. In quiet neighborhood close to many beaches and restaurants. We weren’t able to use the pool unfortunately do to it not heating with the weather during our stay. Host provided a lot of information and communicated timely.
House was spotless. Kitchen well stocked with every possible utensil and and appliance. Pet-friendly with secure fenced yard. Pool was a comfortable 82 degrees which as perfect for December. Excellent communications with owners.
House was perfect! Clean and updated. Kitchen was well stocked for size of house. Appreciated all the extras in the house that are very helpful when flying… soaps, bags, foil, coffee filters, detergent, beach supplies, spices, etc. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!
The property was beautiful! Mike and his wife have done a super job in making things so clean, modern and inviting. Our kids and grandkids stayed for the weekend in the middle of the trip, they loved the the pool. I was so greatful for the extra security of a alarm on the doors to protect the little ones.Mike was prompt in fixing the one issue we had. We hope we can visit again next year:)
This home is amazing. Very clean. Updated decor. Neighborhood is very clean and quiet. The home is supplied with all you will need. The pool couldn’t be nicer. The host were great to communicate with and very informative. We will always look to book this property if in the area. Hands down the overall best VRBO property we have booked.
Great stay! They were very accommodating. House was very clean. The towels all seemed new. Great amenities. Only drawback was the pool is only heated in winter months. We stayed in October, so the kids didn’t hesitate to get in pool, but it would have been nice to take the edge of with the help of the heater. To be fair, we didn’t ask to turn the heater on because it seemed clear that the heater was only for winter months.
Host was on top of my questions almost before I asked. Kept me updated on things I needed to know, couldn't ask for better host or property. House and kitchen well stocked fenced in yard wonderful for small dog. Pool perfect temperature and lawn furniture perfect for what ever you need, lounge chairs, table and chairs protected from weather. Close to beaches, for shell and shark tooth hunting. All in all the perfect host, home, and location.
This is our second stay at this home - it’s so comfortable. The pool is wonderful! We cannot wait to return again. The hosts are very nice and quick to communicate. Thanks again for allowing us to use your home for our vacation!!

We had a great stay at Coastal Retreat! Michael was a very gracious host, he provided a very helpful guide book for the area. The hiuse was clean and better than the pictures. We would stay again.
The property was clean, well-appointed, and very comfortable. The host had thought of everything from extra supplies to recreational equipment. The pool was great! The property was located in a safe, quiet neighborhood, a short walk to a park and a short drive to downtown Venice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
