Relaxing and beautiful

Our group of six adults recently spent 4 weeks at this wonderful location. Walking through the neighborhood and to the beach was easy and safe. We spent much of our time within the enclosed pool area with hot tub, chaises, sun and shade. The house was spacious and comfortable. The owner/hosts were exceptionally responsive and professional in dealing with our questions and concerns. We highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing, quiet and private getaway.

Nice house and location

The house was very roomy and had everything we needed, including fancy dishes which we didn’t use. Thanks to the owners for being responsive to our questions. The pool and hot tub area was nice for relaxing but just needed a little TLC.

Great location 5* Property

My husband and 2 sons had a wonderful stay at this property. Only 15 mins walk from the beach. Very clean and well equipped. We enjoyed many afternoons in the spa pool area and evenings using the outside seating area. Our hosts were exceptional, great communication throughout our stay especially as they kept us informed on what to do about Hurricane Idalia. Fortunately no damage was done and we were able to continue our holiday.

We really enjoyed our stay!

We are return snowbirds to this area because we enjoy what Venice and Englewood have to offer and like being close to Manasota Beach as well as shopping and restaurants. This property is at the top of our list of places we have stayed. It was very clean and well taken care of. The furnishings and amenities were top-notch. Our bed was very comfortable. I've never had such a well-stocked kitchen at a rental property before. The two best things about staying here are: 1)the outdoor space is wonderful and we loved the pool and jacuzzi; and 2) the responsiveness of Alex and Era was phenomenal. They did everything possible to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We would love to come back and stay again in the future.

Absolute perfection!

My family and I rented this beautiful home because it looked large, comfortable and modern. It was all that and more. Before we arrived we had multiple contacts with the homeowners. Era and Alex assured us that they would take care of any concerns we might have. They did that and more. There were housewarming gifts waiting for us that included, chocolates, tea and a bottle of wine. A detailed message board with local dining recommendations, Wifi and contact info as well. Their home guide was thorough, helpful and well organized. The house is beautiful, spacious and modern and the outdoor space was just the same. We enjoyed the pool, lounging on the deck the outdoor space including the mini fridge for convenience. The beach is either a short walk or quick drive from the house (just over a half mile) Manasota Beach never disappoints. Unfortunately, there were some issues with red tide this year but it didn’t keep us from searching for sharks teeth and enjoying the sun. We were in need of another beach chair and Alex ran out and brought us two the very next day. There was absolutely nothing that Era and Alex forgot when designing this home for guests including smart technology throughout the home. My family and I have stayed on Venice Island and Manasota Key for 13 years now and in many different homes. Although we have enjoyed them all, this house and the owners have been the best of them all and we will certainly rent from them again.

Very inviting

My husband and I stayed in this beautiful home for 16 nights. There were plenty of dishes, cutlery, glasses and cookware. And plenty of other things as well. The pool was warm and clean and the lani was very large with comfortable chairs. We ate outside many times. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. We walked every morning and found very friendly people. Era emailed me several times to make sure we were comfortable and if we needed anything. She is very friendly and kind. We had a nice surprise when we arrived. Era had left some treats to enjoy during our stay. Which we did very much. We highly recommend this beautiful home for your next vacation! Thank you Era we had a great time and if we come to this area again we will certainly book again. Donna

Superb villa in a pretty area

Communication with owners was prompt and friendly. Alex and Era went out of their way to make sure our stay was comfortable and met with our expectations. Their house is beautiful, exceptionally clean, spacious and has all the mod cons you would expect and a few more besides. The terrace area is large and very private due to screening. The heated pool and spa proved to be irresistible. The house is located in a quiet area and within walking distance of the beach. We arrived in South Venice just 2 weeks after Hurricane Ian hit the Gulf shores, so unfortunately there was a lot of debris but this did not detract from our visit and indeed the massive clear up operation was well under way by the time we left and we got to see that Venice really is a very pretty area.

5 stars isn’t enough for this property. We had our first family vacation here. We picked this location as it was close to the beach, had a pool, and was a good location for what we were looking at doing. This house is beautiful and well taken care of. There is everything you can think of that you would need. Communication with Era and Alex was very good as well. They were both quick to respond to any emails or messages we had. Would definitely recommend this property to family and friends to stay at.

Vaccinated Vacation Getaway

The house and location were wonderful. The beach is .9 miles away, but it was easier to drive schlepping beach paraphernalia. There’s a large free parking lot at the beach. The house was as pictured. The kitchen was well equipped with even a crockpot. The pool is amazing! There were several days we didn’t even leave the property. The owners answered any questions promptly. We highly recommend this property when visiting the west coast of Florida.

Lovely, Upscale, Updated Villa

We loved, loved our time in this home. Alex and Era responded quickly to any questions we had. It "sparkled" with cleanliness which we appreciated during the Pandemic. Trust the listing pictures! This villa is a gem. No dated furniture or ugly wall colors. Comfortable beds! Close to the North, less crowded beach of Manasota Key--our favorite! Bikes to ride which our grandsons loved. Beach chairs for the beach. Quiet neighborhood-- we loved walking around it. Within walking distance to a nice nature preserve. But the pool and pool cage were stunning with comfy furniture. The sun fell on the pool all day but it was also heated to a comfortable temperature with Smart Home technology each morning for our old bones.
