About this property

A Relaxing Venice Villa

Enjoy the Florida sun while watching birds gathering by the lake as you relax on your lanai. Spend a day poolside swimming or lying on a chaise lounge after a day of sightseeing or visiting Myakka River State Park. In addition to the pool, the club house has additional activities offered by the community of Myrtle Trace. Venice beaches are only minutes away by car including Siesta Key Beach by Sarasota which has been ranked #1 in the USA in 2014 and again in 2017. The pure white quartz sand must be experienced to be appreciated. There are also many opportunities to enjoy outdoor sports like fishing and kayaking in Venice. However, if golf is your passion, there are several nearby courses. Additional arts and cultural activities, the Ringling Museum and Marie Shelby Botanical Garden are a short 20-30 minute drive to Sarasota.

You will love the natural light and space created by the vaulted ceilings and skylights. This beautiful 3 bedroom villa has two master suites with plenty of closet space and their own baths. It is fully equipped for a long stay with all the conveniences of home. The master bedroom #1 offers dual vanities and a large shower stall while the #2 bedroom has a bathtub and dual vanities. The additional sink and toilet can be closed off to use as a powder room when you have guests. The master bedrooms have televisions.The third bedroom has two twin beds and a built-in a closet and chest.

The sliders have been removed from the living room area and flows to the large lanai/sunroom which is equipped with two screened sliding doors allowing you to have fresh airflow.The wall of glass in the Florida room accentuates the natural beauty of the lake where you can sit and enjoy a meal anytime throughout the year. A galley kitchen has been updated with wood cabinets, solid surface counters and stainless steel appliances. It ,too, is fully equipped to meet your culinary needs.

Enjoyable

Owners were excellent to deal with. Place was comfortable. Kitchen has plenty of pots and pans and dishes so it is easy to prepare meals. Area has many things to do and see and many nice restaurants. Even during Covid-19 , most places promote wearing masks, social distancing and using hand sanitizer. Many even limit number allowed inside. Very enjoyable trip.

Nice unit and location with some Good and some Bad

First the good: The unit is similar to the pictures and is decent size for a family to stay in. We originally planned to have our daughters join us, but Covid changed everyone’s schedule so it ended up just being my wife and I. For two people there was more than enough room and the unit had all the basic amenities. Some furnishings/fixtures are a little dated, but the unit was clean and very functional. The location for us was also good as far as proximity to relatives, local beaches and getting to downtown Venice. The view out the back windows was very nice and we enjoyed it often over coffee and breakfast in the morning. The owner was easy and pleasant to work with and had the unit ready for our arrival. Overall the unit itself was nice and would work for most, if you can get past the one bad thing that we happened to encounter (see below). Now for the bad: The one bad thing we encountered which was a challenge for us; Limpkin birds on and around the property. If you are not familiar with this bird, I would strongly suggest you do some research online beforehand and make an informed decision, as there is a notable population of Limpkins living around the water directly behind the unit. Limpkins are known as the “wailing birds” or “crying birds” and they lived up to their name during our stay, as they have an ear-piercing cry that unfortunately happens regularly both day and night. We rented the unit for all of March, and most nights we were woken up at some point by these loud shrill cries. They will settle down for periods of time, but there is no consistency as to when they start, it can be at any time during the night and can last from a few minutes to over an hour. Our first night they started at 1:56 AM (woke me up from a deep sleep) and went on until 3:30 AM. Then again at 5:30 AM for about 30 minutes. They regularly wail and cry at sunrise as well. After a few nights of almost no sleep I resorted to getting and using foam earplugs at night, which was enough to at least sleep though the middle part of the night. Opening windows at night was not an option, as the noise I am referring to was all with the windows closed. We are regular visitors to Florida and specifically this area, so we are used to Florida wildlife and normal sounds at night, however Limpkins are a bit of an exception to the norm – so all I can say is do your homework and then make your own informed decision. If you are a heavy sleeper and/or some noise

Didn’t want to leave

Quiet, secluded and in a wonderful neighborhood with friendly neighbors. As soon as we walked in the door, we felt at home. Lots of living space. We especially enjoyed having our morning coffee with the lake view and all the wildlife. We didn’t want to leave.

Wonderful villa

We spent two enjoyable months, January and February, in this Myrtle Trace villa. As it says, it is right on the lake in a beautiful neighborhood with very nice and friendly neighbors. It's like a home away from home. It's great to wake up in the morning and have the sun shining in with a view of the lake. The owners are exceptionally nice and accommodating and very helpful with any questions. If you're looking for a great place to stay while vacationing in Venice, this is it!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Mayer

Host profile image
We just purchased this villa after having a condo rental in Naples for the past eight years.

Why they chose this property

The lake outside the lanai teems with wildlife and is wonderful to observe. The neighborhood is perfect for walking with little traffic and is quiet and serene. Community members are friendly and there are social activities offered as the clubhouse.
