About this property

Flamingo House - Experience Old Florida!

Come experience Old Florida in our circa 1957 Mid-Century Modern home! It boasts open living areas with the bedrooms on one wing of the house. A glassed in lanai stretches across the entire back of the house. The floors are original terrazzo. There are many vintage furnishings throughout the house.

You will enjoy the large kitchen with original working cooktop and oven. It is well stocked and very pink!

Flamingo House has two bedrooms. The master has a king sized bed, and the second bedroom has a queen. Between the bedrooms you will find a beautiful vintage tiled bathroom that has been recently updated. We also have a laundry room/half bath combo, and we recently installed an outdoor shower!

There is a full sized sleeper in the living room as well as a roll away bed. The sofa on the lanai is quite comfy as well! You will find the laundry and half bath off the kitchen. In the mudroom you will find plenty of chairs and toys for the beach. We even have a sifter for all the sharks teeth you will find at the beach!

There are many public beaches close by. Manasota Beach is about 3 miles south of us. It has bathroom facilities and public parking. Blind Pass Beach, 8 miles south of us, is a state park with free parking, bathhouse facilities, and wide beaches. There are several excellent public beaches on Venice Island, including a dog beach.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Host was easy to reach and took care of issues in a timely manner. The location was great for beaches, restaurants and activities. Comfortable beds. The neighborhood was not really walkable as no sidewalks, narrow street and despite the 30 mph speed limit many vehicles would speed down the street. There was an outside area but no privacy outside.

The house is as it’s described. Mitzi is a 5 star host. She was quick to respond to any questions I had. House is well stocked with things for the beach and bikes to ride at Shamrock Park. The neighborhood is quiet. I would definitely stay here again! Thank you Mitzi.

Loved our stay

Wonderful stay. Fenced yard for the dog was nice. Everything was very clean and welcoming. It took us a bit to figure out tv. If I had known it had Netflix I would have brought my password paper. Unfortunately beaches were closed. We hope to return as we have family in the area. Thanks

Love this place!

This was our second time staying at the Flamingo House. This time we stayed for 3.5 weeks and love the property. The neighborhood is quiet, everyone around is nice, and the owner is great! Everything is close by and easy to get to, the house is fully furnished with everything you could think of including beach stuff. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Venice, thanks for a great few weeks!

Perfect Florida getaway!

We went for the weekend to do some shark teeth hunting and really enjoyed our stay. The house was super clean and comfortable and it a great location to visit all the surrounding beaches and activities. The neighborhood was clean and quiet and we felt very safe and relaxed. Mitzi provided everything we needed as well to help us enjoy the weekend. And I LOVE the flamingo wall paper in the bathroom - so cute!! Great house - I would recommend staying here and would do so again. Thanks Mitzi!!

Fantastic home in Venice

Spacious home with retro character! Mitzi has thought of everything her guests might need & gave us great suggestions for restaurants & activities! Everyone we met (several neighbors,sales clerks,even the cashier @ carwash) was friendly! Being bird watchers, we loved the Audubon rookery,which is nearby & all the egrets & storks that frequent the neighborhood!We hope to return.
