About this property

LOCATION! LOCATION! Lovely Venice Villa - 2 min walk to beach!


IMPORTANT: THE CONDO IS UNDER RENOVATION UNTIL OCTOBER 2025. THE PHOTOS ARE THE PRE-RENOVATION PHOTOS AND REFLECT THE SIZE OF THE CONDO & FLOOR PLAN. KITCHEN WILL GET NEW CABINETS, NEW APPLIANCES, AS WILL THE BATHROOM BE COMPLETELY RETILED, NEW VANITY, NEW PAINT/COLOR ON WALLS ETC. IF YOU BOOK IT EXPECT THE SAME CLEAN AND PLEASANT EXPERIENCE AS MANY TRAVELERS HAD BEFORE BUT PLEASE KNOW THAT THE UNIT WILL LOOK BETTER, NEWER, FRESHER AND MORE UPDATED/DIFFERENT THAN THESE PHOTOS.

Venice Villas is a two-story condo complex with several efficiencies/studios on both floors. It consists of studios either in the front or back side of the building. My unit faces directly the beach and is on the ground floor. The unit's door opens directly to the beach entrance with unblocked views and is just steps away from the beach/sea. I included a photo with the view from the unit. The Gazebo is where the beach starts. Approx. (less than) 2 min. walk to reach the sea. It is also the closest to the wonderful semi-Olympic size pool.

Conveniently located approx. 75 minutes from Tampa Int'l Airport and accommodates ideally two people. The living and bedroom area in the same room just like a comfortable and nicely decorated decent size hotel room.

The unit has a kitchenette with two burners, a smaller size fridge with freezer compartment and basic cooking utensils. There is free high speed wifi installed in the condo.

The location of the studio is midway between the fishing pier and downtown - both around 15 - 20 minute walks away. For those who are familiar with Venice - my favorite is strolling in downtown Venice or walking briskly on the beach 20 minutes to Sharky's (A beach side restaurant), watch the sunset with a margarita and walk back.
What do other's do? They search for historic shark teeth, sun bathe, swim or fish - right from the beach.

Venice is a short drive from Sarasota - another similarly affluent city with well developed arts scene, the Ringling Museum, Botanical Gardens and a variety of fine dining options... A quick online search can provide more details.

For those travelling overseas - Orlando (2 hrs), Naples (1 hr), Miami
(3 hr) are all great day trip options... St. Petersburg and Tampa can be reached within less than 90 minutes. For shoppers, in addition to local Venice boutiques, Ellenton Factory Outlet is also a short drive away (approx. 20 min.)

This is ultimately a "beach" place for those seeking serenity and enjoy Florida activities from fishing to fine dining...

Welcome to a little piece of paradise in the South!

Nice location

The room was ok. It was smaller than I thought. Very hard to cook to cramped to cook. Fridge was a college side one you find in a motel. The bathroom had a urine odor so we kept the door closed. I liked the area. The town was nice and the beach was quiet.

Quick stay in Venice

We stayed in the studio apartment for 3 nights. It was very clean. The 2 minute walk to the beach is about a 1/3 of a mile, down a long parking area. It was quite toasty to walk there. If you have difficulty walking, you may drive down to a guest spot a little closer. Pool was clean and enjoyable. Chuck was very responsive to our input, as the towels were clean but well worn. He was in the process of replacing them. Overall a good location, but you do not see the beach and you do need to drive, especially if walking is hard for you.

The property is beautiful and very accommodating. As was the host. Very helpful and informative. Unfortunately we got caught in Hurricane Debby, it was a little stressful but our host was with us via text/calls the whole entire time. He made everything so easy and we couldn’t be happier with him. We decided to stay a few extra days due to the hurricane and not wanting to travel during the crazy weather and thankfully the host was able to accommodate our needs!!! Honestly I wish the host owned more properties along this coastline (we try to visit a different spot each year, just to keep it interesting) just so we could rent from him again. He provided a 10/10 experience.

Shark teeth

It’s a nice small space that’s close to the beach. Clean, cool, easy parking. Nice place that was close to the beaches we wanted to visit. We found shark teeth on this beach and on Caspersen beach which is 3 miles south. Lots of shells collected at Pass a grille and Sanibel. Great Italian food in Venice!

SUPER CUTE!

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cute little room! Looks just like it's pictured online. The beach was amazing, just a short walk to paradise! This condo location could not be better!! A very short 3 minutes drive to downtown Venice for dinner and shopping. Three minutes the other way and you are at beautiful Venice Pier! Communication with owner was quick and easy! I text him a question about the door lock, and he proceeded to call me within two minutes! Highly recommend a stay here!!

Perfect area

This was our 1st time visiting Venice Beach. The location was perfect! We loved that the beach was used only by the residents, it made it more relaxing, which is exactly what we were looking for. Short drive to the pier, and downtown. The studio was the perfect size. It was extremely clean and well maintained. Definitely a great find!
