Nestled along the Intracoastal Waterway by the Gulf Coast's Lemon Bay and just a few minutes south of Venice Island, this quiet suburban residential neighborhood of single-family homes sits “west of the trail,” meaning the neighborhood is west/Gulfside of Highway 41 (Tamiami Trail).
Walk or bike the Legacy Trail at Shamrock Park & Nature Center. Visit South Venice Lemon Bay Preserve. Visit the shops and restaurants on the charming Island of Venice, fish at the Venice Fishing Pier, or drop in for a seaside, open-air yoga class at Venice Beach or Manasota Key Beach.

We really cant say enough how happy we were with this home . Cleanliness is important to us and this home was as clean as clean can be ! Very nicely decorated with quality furniture and very well stocked with all the essentials . The neighborhood is very quiet and we have stayed in many rentals in South Venice and this was the best . Even the landscaping was nice as well . Communication with the owner was excellent and would highly recommend this home to anyone ......

Excellent. When issues were brought up to the manager they were addressed in a timely manner. The location worked well for us. It was a quiet, friendly neighborhood. Just about everything we needed was supplied. The shower and tub floors were a little slippery so I did buy a bathmat. The garden hose did not work. Overall we really appreciated the property!

About the host
Hosted by Norman Delage
As much as I love my home state of Maine, after half a lifetime of freezing temps and snow (lots and lots of snow!), my wife and I decided to invest in a tropical getaway to call our own. The Coral Shell is it! We hope you will enjoy your stay at the Coral Shell as much as we enjoy owning the house.
What makes this property unique
The entire neighborhood is a protected wildlife zone and visitors can expect to see a variety of birds around the neighborhood including Great Egrets, Great Blue Herons, Black Crowned Night Herons, Anhingas, Glossy Ibis, Common Gallinules, and Snowy Egrets. The nearby Venice Area Audubon Rookery is an especially nice place to visit at dusk, when a variety of large birds arrive to roost for the night. Bring your camera!
