About this property

Pet-Friendly South Venice Home Near Gulf Beaches

Make The Coral Shell in beautiful South Venice your tropical home‑away‑from‑home. This spacious, guest‑loved Venice, Florida vacation rental offers privacy, comfort, and everything you need for a memorable Gulf Coast stay—close to Venice Beach, Manasota Key Beach, Caspersen Beach, Nokomis Beach, parks, golf courses, and shopping. For extra photos and trip‑planning info, many guests simply search “the coral shell rentsouthvenice” to visit our house website before booking, and all reservations are still made securely through Vrbo. With fast Wi‑Fi, beach gear, bikes, and a bright sunroom workspace, The Coral Shell is ideal for vacationers, remote workers, snowbirds, and relocation scouting alike.

This well‑kept private residence sits in a quiet South Venice neighborhood and is fully stocked so you can relax, unwind, and enjoy yourself. Create lasting memories with family or friends at The Coral Shell—your peaceful retreat near the Gulf of Mexico and the Intracoastal Waterway.

Nestled along the Intracoastal Waterway by the Gulf Coast’s Lemon Bay and just a few minutes south of Venice Island, this peaceful residential area of single‑family homes sits “west of the trail,” meaning west/Gulfside of Highway 41 (Tamiami Trail). It’s a prime location for exploring Venice, Englewood, Nokomis, and the entire Suncoast region.

Enjoy endless outdoor activities: walk or bike the Legacy Trail at Shamrock Park & Nature Center, explore the South Venice Lemon Bay Preserve, kayak along Lemon Bay, or hunt for shark teeth at Caspersen Beach. Visit the shops and restaurants on charming Venice Island, fish from the Venice Fishing Pier, or enjoy seaside, open‑air yoga at Venice Beach or Manasota Key Beach.

Golfers will appreciate the many nearby courses, including Lake Venice Golf Club, Pelican Pointe Golf & Country Club, and Jacaranda West. Bird enthusiasts can visit The Rookery, a beloved local wildlife haven perfect for photography, nature walks, and spotting herons, egrets, and other coastal birds.

Note from Property Manager: My name is Norman, and I am a Premier Host on four other properties—all 5‑star, every review. As you can see from the photos, this home is immaculate—beautifully furnished, tastefully decorated, and exceptionally well cared for. I promise the service you receive will be exemplary.

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 .

Perfect Property

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

Host profile image
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!
