Hi Stephanie,
Thank you for your lovely review. You were a wonderful guest and would love to have you back again!

The house is adorable and very clean. Quiet neighborhood, which was nice as well. Kids loved the pool, which was very clean and well maintained. It was also perfect for the beach, as it was close and perfectly stocked with all the essentials (wagon, beach towels, umbrella, shark teeth finding equipment etc). We very much enjoyed our vacation here - hosts were fantastic and communicative.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, just wish it was longer. Super clean, loved the decor, and had anything you could possibly need whether staying the house or for days at the beach. Would definitely stay again next time we go to Venice.

The home had everything we could ask for and more. It was in a great location, beautiful quiet spot. It had so many amazing amenities and the house came stocked with goodies that you don’t normally get. The owners were amazing! If I had questions they would respond quickly and were very inviting. I would definitely book again.

Hi Kelly,
Thank you for the lovely review! We’re glad your family had a great time. You were wonderful houseguests and you left the house so clean! We’d love to have you back again.
Gerry & Dennis
We loved staying at Barefoot Dreams! The place was super clean, and very well thought out. Everything was there that we needed and it was very comfortable. Our kids loved taking the beach toys and shell sifters to the beach, and the umbrellas were very easy to set up. It was very close to everything Venice has to offer and an easy bike ride through the neighborhood to my in-laws house. The kids also really liked the pool lit up at night for an after dinner swim. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place for our trip to Venice!!
The property met my expectations and my stay was wonderful. The kitchen was well equipped. The layout was great when I had guest. The owner was always accessible when I had questions. Love the Venice area.

We had the best experience staying at the Venice Gardens property. Not only was the house spotless and exactly like the listing stated, the hosts literally thought of everything to make our stay super enjoyable. Our kids were obsessed with the pool and it also was very clean and well kept. We will most definitely stay here again!

The house is perfect for a small group. It has everything you might need.
All of the beach gear was much appreciated!
The lanai area and pool was our favorite spot to be no matter the time of day.
Each bed was very comfortable! We can’t wait to return.

A wonderful property that is managed with the upmost care. The furnishings were in great condition, and the decorations and amenities were thoughtful. The packnplay was in excellent condition and the toys for toddlers was very appreciative.
We greatly enjoyed our time outside in the pool and patio.
This house was the perfect stay for a beach getaway in Venice! The neighborhood was peaceful. The home was stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking your food, time at the beach, and enjoying the pool. The owners have thought of the smallest details and the house was beautifully themed for a relaxing beach trip. We would love to stay here again!

They thought of everything. We use Vrbo a lot for vacations and this is the only time we didn’t need to buy a thing besides our grocery run down, especially on a beach vacation. The property has everything it says and then some. Location is perfect for hitting all the area beaches that we love.
