About this property

Beachwalk Bungalow on Venice Island - private access to beach just steps away!

Island living just 8 houses from the beach! This home is for beach goers! It has two bedrooms, one is oversized with a king bed and the other with a queen size bed. Both with smart TVs and new mattresses (Oct 2022). The living area has a Floridian style vibe with couch and two comfortable chairs and another smart TV. The kitchen has an eat in area and is fully stocked with blender, coffee and expresso makers etc. It has plenty of dishware and all cooking utensils. The kitchen opens onto a screened and covered lanai with new furniture. In the large back yard is an outdoor patio with 2 large umbrellas, new Weber grill and new furniture for relaxing. Cozy up in the evening next to the chimenea for some s'mores or a glass of wine!.

A beach lovers' vacation paradise, just steps from a private beach entrance to gorgeous Venice Beach where the sunsets are spectacular. It is also a short distance to Sharkey's pier for fishing, dining and shark teeth hunting. Less than 5 minutes from Lake Venice Golf Club, an award winning course (voted Best Public Golf Course in Venice 2009-2018) with 27 holes. The Legacy Trail is also less than a mile away and provides you with 36 roundtrip miles of biking trails between Venice and Sarasota. And we can't forget historic downtown Venice, located within a mile and a half of the home which has great restaurants and shopping. We have provided beach chairs, beach umbrellas, 2 road bikes, beach wagon, beach towels, coolers of different sizes and 2 sets of golf clubs - men's and women's right handed sets. This home has everything for a perfect Florida vacation stay.

A dog is allowed with a $100 pet service charge. Brohard Dog Beach is walking distance from the house. There is a carport. The brand new laundry facilities and half bath are located in a newly updated cabana adjacent to the carport.

PLEASE get VRBO verified before booking request. Thank you.

Would not change!
George and Val are everything you want when picking a family vacation home! They made everything easy from being flexible on checkin, being available during the stay and communication was on point. Everything was clean, had all the toys, accessories etc to pack up and walk right down to beach! I would give 6 out of 5 stars if I could. We will definitely be booking this same place on our next trip. Thank you again, George and Val!

Venice Florida Re-Visited
The description in VRBO was spot on. The house has a good layout. Everything appeared new yet comfortable to be around. The owners communicated prior arrival and after. The house is located within five minutes of there entrances to the beach (community, town and Sharkeys Restaurant). Easy to find shark teeth. Within a mile to walk to Venice Avenue for shopping, eating and drinking. We are trying to determine when we can return.

Great time in Venice
My family had a great time staying here in Venice, Florida. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay in the house and for going to the beach. The beach is only a few minutes walk away to a private beach which was never too crowded during our stay. The listing is completely accurate and we would definitely stay here again if return to Venice. Highly recommended!

Island life is the best❤️
I totally loved our month at Beachwalk. The property had absolutely everything you might need for an enjoyable stay. The outside shower was at first thought a little concerning, but it actually was a great addition to our experience. The appliances were all new and easy to use. The location to the beach and downtown Venice made walking everywhere perfect. It is close to the Venice airport, but we never really heard any plane traffic. I would love to stay here again. George and his wife were great hosts. The best time ever.-Deb

Beachwalk bungalo
This was a great place to stay. Very clean and comfortable. Owner had a great binder with info on places to go and see in the area. From this property you could walk to a private beach pass or walk to the pier and go to the beach there. Golf was close by and you could walk to downtown and other areas. The owner was extremely helpful and communicative. This was a perfect place to rent

close but not 5 stars
The house is cute and is close to Venice’s many attractions. Unfortunately, the price you pay for proximity is a daily, steady, noisy traffic on Beach Rd. Beach Rd is one of two main arteries for public beach access. When you are inside, the noise is not bad, but being outside on the screened porch is unbearable. The airplane noise is tolerable.

Minimum expectations
Our stay at Beach Bungalow met our minimum expectations. Location was convenient with easy access to the beach & many options for walking, although air and road traffic were trying at times. Enjoyed our stay but will look for something with a more privacy next time.

We truly enjoyed our time at the Beach Rd Bungalow. Wonderful experience with much needed beach relaxation. Our host was very easy to contact, and the house was nicely equipped with everything we needed. Appreciated the quick responses and kindness. Returning next year! LaVada Meeks

Cozy house with just minutes walk to the beach!
We really enjoyed our stay in this house and would definitely rent it again! It was just minutes walk down to the beach and came with everything needed for a beach day - chairs, umbrellas and even bikes. The house is clean and cozy and has a big yard with several seating areas, one in the screened lanai. Our dog loved the large garden (not fenced) and the neighborhood was nice and quiet to walk the dog in, even at night. With just a few minutes by bike or car, you reach the dog beach, which is located by a nice pond with alligators and birds. The host George & Val were wonderful and even reached out and asked if everything was okay during our stay. We hope to come back again soon!

About the host

Hosted by George & Valerie Martinez

Host profile image
Valerie and George live in Connecticut. Recently retired, our retirement dream was to live in our own homes in different locations throughout the US depending on the season. We were fortunate to start that dream pre-retirement with our Vermont "Treehouse" (VRBO #625601) which we acquired in 2012 (we are avid skiers). We later acquired Beachfront Waterside Getaway in Guilford, Ct in 2016 (VRBO #1006705), a quaint New England coastal town just 30 mins from New Haven and 2 hours from NYC. Most recently in June 2022, we acquired BeachWalk Bungalow on Venice Island (VRBO #3021103) and, having fallen in love with Venice, acquired Four Palms Venice in South Venice (VRBO #3260654) on February 2023. We use all our homes and we think that makes a difference in how they are maintained and decorated. We hope you enjoy your stay in one of our homes!
