Quiet, clean and great amenities

My family of four loved staying here. The hosts included everything we needed for a relaxing stay. New well-stocked kitchen, reliable high speed wifi, comfortable beds, pool, and lots of beach gear for a day trip. Prompt communication from hosts when we had questions. The coffee bar and snack basket were an extra welcome treat!

I knew within 30 min what I would be rating.

I was so pleasantly surprised by this home. I am usually skeptical of staying places, even hotels, because you never know what to expect. Not only was the home exceptionally clean but the owners truly thought of anything and everything you might need during your stay. We were 1000 miles away from our home but we felt so comfortable here it felt like a second home. The outdoor area was perfect. We used the pool every single day and our kids were obsessed. My son even said one of his first words “pool” because he loved it so much. The area was perfect. Very quiet and private, close to anything you might need. We already plan to book this home again for our visit next year.

Lovely home- very clean and if you have forgotten anything, most likely it’s there! The pool is great! The a/c went out in the middle of the night Friday. I sent a message at 7:30am- he was there at 8:00 followed by hvac. It was fixed by 9- grateful! Would definitely recommend

A delightful, quaint, meticulous house with a pool in a local neighborhood. A short drive to historic Venice, the beach and walking trails as well as shopping and museums, etc. The extra touch of assortment of morning coffee and snacks was appreciated!!!

Fantastic Property

This is a wonderful property. It was very clean. We were pleasantly surprised by some of the amenities provided. They had bottle water, coffee and various other snacks and condiments available. The property owners were very nice and made the check-in process extremely easy and communicated with us the day of our arrival to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. At first we were a little nervous about the heated pool because it was at 77 degrees and we're used to pool water around 85 degrees but the next day the water temperature was 86. We assumed it was on a timer and the temperature increased while we were there and then probably on a timer to lower the day we checked out so don't worry if the pool isn't warm enough the day you get there. We would definitely stay here again.

Awesome house!

This house was one of the best. Having stayed at multiple VBRO’s I am not often impressed. This home was great! The owners seemed to have thought of almost everything. The thing that impressed me THE MOST was the fully stocked coffee bar, nothing is more terrible after flying all day, getting in late and up early to then have to go find coffee…not an issue with this home, they had it ALL..its the small things that make the difference. Having phone chargers provided- the bomb, labeling cabinets and drawers in the kitchen- brilliant! My kids lived in the pool when not in the ocean, excellent pool area. Would definitely stay here again! Owners are very responsive, thanks for letting us stay!

A great little place!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a few nights for a long weekend getaway. The pool with a screened lanai was a great outdoor place to relax. We also really enjoyed all the nice little personal touches such as charger cords in each room, coffee/tea bar, and a basket of snacks/waters. The neighborhood is very quiet. We really enjoyed our stay!

Everything you could need

Overall this property was a great place to stay for a family with kids. The property is in a neighborhood that you could say “local” Floridians live. The house itself has 2 nice bedrooms and a pullout couch that was very useful. It is just 7 minutes to the local beach which is awesome. The pool was amazing and was used quite a bit during our stay. The hosts were probably the best I have experienced thus far renting houses. Lastly the house is supplied with pretty much everything you need to feel at home. Literally everything but your daily food is there for you. We will surely stay here again when in the Venice area.

About the host

Hosted by Dorcia & Mac

Host profile image
My husband Mac and I have recently made our dream of living in paradise come true. We have moved from NJ and love it down here. We have also been wanting to host and share our homes with others. We have both been managing real estate properties for a long time. We are very committed to provide our guests with clean, comfortable and fully equipped vacation homes. We love the positive feedback from our guests and continue to improve our homes for the best guests' experience.

Why they chose this property

"The Poolside" is nestled in a quiet neighborhood away from the crowds, yet close to everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Staying in the Bird Sanctuary you will see and hear many different kids of birds, turtles and geckos. The beloved Manasota beach is a quick car ride or even a bike ride away. The house features a split floor plan, with the common areas in the middle, great for gathering and relaxing, while the bedrooms are located on opposite sides of the house, for added privacy. Each of the bedrooms has its own full bathroom. The patio/pool area is spacious, sunny but also has a shaded area great for relaxing, entertaining or reading a book. This whole area is enclosed and has a brand new screen to keep the bugs away.

What makes this property unique

South Venice is known as the "Shark Tooth Capital of the World." Hunting for fossilized shark teeth that are thousands of years old, is by far the favorite activity of locals and tourists alike.
Additionally, we do not believe in basic rentals, therefore our rentals are stacked will plenty of extra items, to provide a home away from home experience. Our cottage is equipped with beach gear including a sand sifter, beach toys, 2 bikes and pool floats, so you can have all of the fun. The kitchen is very well equipped so that you can prepare your favorite meals. We provide fresh cotton linens, fluffy towels, cleaning supplies and toiletries.
