The stay was absolutely perfect and the house had anything and everything we needed and is in a great location! I can not say enough about how awesome the host is and is amazingly easy to communicate with! She knew it was just me and my daughter and even texted the day after we got there to check in on us and make sure everything was good. The home and host made our yearly mom and daughter vacation absolutely perfect! We will definitely be back!!

We had fabulous time! House was perfect for the two of us. Very clean, neat and tastefully decorated. Had all the essentials we needed in kitchen, bathroom and beyond. I like to cook and kitchen had everything. Bed very comfy. Liked the shower instead of tub. Sofa and loveseat comfortable to watch nice, large TV. Sunroom was peaceful. Yard was nice will plenty of places to lounge and enjoy large grill. Our host was very friendly, informative and so easy to work with. Location to beach and town convenient. Venice is lovely city but crowded this time of year (spring break).

Beautiful Island Property

My husband and I stayed here for a wedding recently and were extremely happy with our stay. The house was very clean and tidy. The property was larger than we expected and there were lots of places to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Deb was communicative and accommodating. We felt super comfortable and had a very peaceful trip here. Would definitely recommend this home for your next trip.

The location was perfect for us. Close to walking/biking trail, grocery, restaurants yet very quit and private. Awesome back yard with privacy fence and 3-season room for cooler mornings. House had everything we needed to cook in. As sports fans we enjoyed the TV’s. Private drive for parking. Bed was comfortable. Everything very clean and neat. We found a nice beach at Service Club Park( about 5 minutes from the house) where there are covered picnic tables and restrooms. It was much less crowded than the larger beaches. Already planning to return next year!

Island Bliss

Location is very important, no need to leave the island and deal with the nonstop traffic!The house is amazing and sparkly clean. Deb has thought of everything! New comfy furniture, including the beds. I really can’t find any negatives. We lived on the island in the past and so happy we found this gem! The back yard area is private and quiet. Also there is an amazing walkway right across the street that is even lit at night. We will definitely be back!
