A little of a hassle that we scheduled everything around check in at 3 but it wasn’t until 4 and we didn’t find out until check in instructions were sent. The front door squeaked terribly. The shower barely spit water out of the faucet. The beach was a good bit from 23 and it was about half way between the pool and the beach. The beds were not great. Both sank in the middle. Fridge didn’t really cool well. Coffee pot not a kuerig so don’t get the pods. The beach was a strap drop down. We did not complain about any of the things listed so there was not an opportunity for them to fix it before we left. The good stuff. There were chairs and umbrellas to use that the beach. It was close to a publix and several places to eat. The condo was very clean. The shower was very roomy and helpful for handicap. The beach was not cramped since it is private. Only a few people at a time except at morning and sunset there are more people. Probably a great place for small young families. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EA0E23C4EAC23B4D04FDFBF96B2A3D49E99D76601687981976349.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2A00CA2493C0343A0B979E5F18D001BDEDAC71811687981979378.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Cheryl Aug 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The only feedback to provide to owners is that the beds and pillows need updating.

SUPER LOCATION ! ##### Richard E. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 31, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The apartment unit is well equipped (three televisions!) and furnished. The king bed was quite comfortable and the neighborhood quiet at night. The outdoor pool was also quite nice and certainly large. The problem was the beach which was hit by red tide during our short stay. The sand was littered with dead fish and the smell was offensive. Sarasota County best get its act together or tourism to the area will plummet. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Jul 14, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Location was great but unit we were staying in (#24) needs major renovations!

I really liked the quiet, property condition and location to the beach. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in May 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller May 19, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities PROS: This unit is a one-minute walk to the beach. Parking was by assigned space. Unit was bug free. Swimming pool was nice, with plenty of seating. Laundry facilities on site were sufficient. All appliances worked. CONS: I was surprised to discover that this rental was in a retirement community. This unit is a time capsule of the 1980’s and is in serious need of updating. The only updated items in the unit were the refrigerator and pedestal sink in the bathroom. The front door has serious wood rot throughout and would benefit greatly from a fresh coat of paint, if not a replacement. It was next to impossible to read while inside the unit, as the lighting throughout is extremely minimal (both lamps and windows combined). Whoever the cleaning service is, needs to do a much better job of cleaning. We arrived to burnt-on food on the foil lined burner pans and the floors were in serious need of a good vacuuming and mopping. The areas under the kitchen table as well as the coffee table have not been cleaned at all in quite some time. NEUTRAL: The queen sized bed was okay – on the border of being worn out, whereas the pull-out sofa was surprisingly comfortable. BEACH: The gulf waters are gorgeous, and this is a great place to find shark teeth. However, this is not a beach for younger children as it has a very sharp drop off on both the sand and in the water. The sand is also very coarse and grey. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William Jan 18, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication Comfortable, clean and plenty of room. ##### William Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 30, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We loved this location! Just a short walk to the beach, clean and was perfect for our family’s weekend adventure! They had all the beach amenities (umbrellas, sand pails, sifters to find shark teeth etc) which was a huge bonus. We would totally stay here again! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raymond Nov 2, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Great weekend getaway! The Villa is a perfect getaway. Only steps from the beach, it was clean, came with all the necessary kitchenware and beach equipment in case you left something at home. There is a very nice swimming pool and grilling area which we took full advantage of after spending the day on the beach. It's a private beach in a residential area so no hotels or traffic to contend with. The one downside would be you have to drive a bit if you want to go out to eat or pick up some suntan lotion. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/007BE33F5AA7AAF7C59A142F2CB064546F3531531604361431457.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0CEBA2B143A2B34C9B7CA4E5A1EEF1132AB8255C1604361431829.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2BD90F25209E727EEAC5B0A9842275E861FAFB6B1604361432079.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Raymond Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 27, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication A LITTLE WALK TO TGHE BEACH BUT THAT WAS NOT A PROBLEM ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jul 6, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### 4th getaway Very comfortable, close to beach, has everything u need for a great stay. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 29, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities comfortable beds, large screened in lanai, nice courtyard ##### Verified traveller Stayed 28 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great quiet location and a clean as advertised place. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brandie Jul 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Humble I loved the condo, felt right at home! ##### Brandie Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jun 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location on a super quiet beach!

We stayed in Unit 46 which is a house and not beachfront or directly on the beach, but just a short walk. This is a small community consisting of a couple houses, a couple of hotel/motel style buildings, and several villas (pictured in listing) some of which are beachfront. All units are a very short walk to the private beach access which includes beach & lawn chairs for community use. The pool was undergoing a last minute renovation, but the owner was kind enough to call and let us know prior to arrival. Unit 46 is dated and could use some painting, but well worth the price. it was clean, spacious, and included lots of extras (beach umbrellas, laundry detergent, completely furnished kitchen including small appliances, dishes, pans, dishwasher, trash bags) which made our stay quite comfy. This area is super quiet and yet there are several shops and local restaurants nearby. Beach is not the white sand FL is known for, more silty. Also, you will need to watch children extra carefully. The water is like steps, walk a few feet, drops a foot, walk a few feet drops a foot. Still we had a wonderful w/e with the family. I would consider staying here again if in the area. ##### Brenda Stayed 4 nights in May 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jerry May 11, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Do Not Stay Here!!!!!

We had a great time in Venice. The property is practically on the beach and was clean, reasonably well equipped and offered loads of space for two people. The centre of Venice is an easy walk along reasonably lit sidewalks. Venice is a proper little place with a range of restaurants and shops. Not a chain in sight. Check out what is on at the theatre. There are lots of trails to explore and good beaches. It's a good centre for exploring from but we didn't feel the need to stray far. There is a small but. We assumed that this property was owned and managed by a commercial business but this is does not appear to be so. We were told that we were renting from the individual property owner and would have to rely on them to resolve any problems. We had a minor problem in that there was no internet connection. Hardly a disaster but annoying. I reported the problem to the booking agent who said they would contact the owner. I didn't hear back from them. This didn't spoil a great trip but it could have been different if the problem had been more serious. I think the ownership arrangement should have been clearer. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 28, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities I loved the location just a short walk to the beach and a short drive to the pier. Pool just outside condo. Dislikes... dated interior but had everything we needed. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Mondrian South Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Mondrian-South-Beach.h2190271.Hotel-Information) > > [W South Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-W-South-Beach.h11881.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Orlando at WALT DISNEY WORLD® Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Orlando-At-WALT-DISNEY-WORLD-Resort.h7374428.Hotel-Information) > > [Universal's Hard Rock Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Universals-Hard-Rock-Hotel.h485506.Hotel-Information) > > [Reunion Resort & Golf Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Reunion-Resort-Golf-Club.h992499.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Fort Lauderdale 17th Street](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-Ft-Lauderdale17th-Street.h11909.Hotel-Information) > > [Universal's Endless Summer Resort - Dockside Inn and Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Universals-Endless-Summer-Dockside-Inn-Suites.h33770341.Hotel-Information) > > [Home2 Suites by Hilton Orlando at Flamingo Crossings](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Home2-Suites-By-Hilton-Orlando-Flamingo-Crossings.h58072517.Hotel-Information) > > [Universal's Endless Summer Resort - Surfside Inn and Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Universals-Endless-Summer-Resort-Surfside-Inn-And-Suites.h27522522.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton at the Entrance to Universal Orlando](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-At-The-Entrance-To-Universal-Orlando.h5398.Hotel-Information) > > [B Ocean Resort Fort Lauderdale Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-B-Ocean-Resort.h5404.Hotel-Information) > > [Universal’s Loews Royal Pacific Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Universals-Loews-Royal-Pacific-Resort.h856706.Hotel-Information) > > [Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Universals-Cabana-Bay-Beach-Resort.h5963292.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach House Fort Lauderdale, a Hilton Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Hilton-Fort-Lauderdale-Beach-Resort.h28591.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tides on Hollywood](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-The-Tides-On-Hollywood.h44524455.Hotel-Information) > > [Loews Miami Beach Hotel – South Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Loews-Miami-Beach-Hotel-South-Beach.h81223.Hotel-Information) > > [Fontainebleau Miami Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Fontainebleau-Miami-Beach.h1190549.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Plaza Miami Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Plaza-Miami-Beach.h74574.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Orlando International Drive](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Orlando-International-Drive.h4262.Hotel-Information) > > [1 Hotel South Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-1-Hotel-South-Beach.h1790087.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Margaritaville-Hollywood-Beach-Resort.h10005147.Hotel-Information) > > [Diplomat Beach Resort Hollywood, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Diplomat-Beach-Resort-Hollywood.h857779.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Miami South Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Moxy-Miami-South-Beach.h55553829.Hotel-Information) > > [Walt Disney World Dolphin](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Walt-Disney-World-Dolphin.h12710.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-The-Westin-Fort-Lauderdale-Beach-Resort.h17159.Hotel-Information) > > [W Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-W-Fort-Lauderdale.h2335216.Hotel-Information) > > [Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Fort-Lauderdale-Marriott-Harbor-Beach-Resort-Spa.h21880.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Club Vacations at Orange Lake Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Club-Vacations-At-Orange-Lake-Resort.h6315.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahama Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Bahama-Bay-Resort.h1056615.Hotel-Information)
