Lakefront Getaway in Sunny FL

WilliamRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We had a fantastic time at Sergiy's property! This venue offers privacy with a great pool & outdoor facilities. It's only a ten minute drive to the Siesta Beach area. Sergiy was an excellent host, always quick to respond on our questions while being totally unobtrusive. We highly recommend this property.

Lake+Trees+Beach+Private Pool!

EileenRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We stayed here for three months and felt completely at home. The house has everything you need, from bedding, towels, large screen TVs, and all the gear you need to have a memorable day at the beach. The pool is large, and the pool area was my all-time favorite. It’s spacious, quiet, and private, with views of various birds, marsh rabbits, and an occasional gator sighting in the distance. The host, Daniel, answered our questions when we checked in, was easy to reach, and was quick to respond. The location is close to various beaches, parks, restaurants, stores, and fun shopping in Historic Downtown Venice. We were even able to catch a few baseball games during Spring training. My one complaint is that leaving after such a wonderfully relaxing stay is difficult.

Lake View, 6 Miles From Beach

MattRating, 5 stars2 days ago

Our family of 5 had an amazing stay at Jay's place in Nokomis. Super convenient and a beautiful home situated in a perfect spot in the gated community. We took full advantage of the beach equipment: chairs/wagon/cooler/umbrellas, etc. and made daily trips to Nokomis, Venice and Siesta key beaches (all super convenient). Typically we'd spend half the day at the beach and half at the rental/pool. Traeger grill and upscale bath products were nice touches. Everything worked as described and Jay was super great to work with. The community was full of nice people (we even got an impromptu pickle ball lesson) and everyone was laid back. Overall, a great escape from mud season in New England. I'd prefer this place to a five star hotel. Will definitely be back!

NEW modern 3/2 gulf waterfront pool spa boat fish

RickRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We’ve stayed at different places last 3 years and we thought this place was the nicest. It was spotless, nicely furnished and the pool was clean and a great temperature. The hosts left us a nice large basket of fruit, chocolate and a bottle of champagne. Very nice touch on check-in. The fishing was good. I caught a 4ft nurse shark, 3 sting rays and about 35 catfish that put up a nice fight. While I fished my family swam in the pool and soaked up the sun. Night time hot tub was awesome. The only thing bad was actually having to leave. Thanks for a memorable vacation.

The Lake View

SamanthaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Good option for a last minute trip. Joel was very kind and accommodating. He communicated very well and responded extremely quickly. Gave thorough instructions and was very helpful. The house is pretty small but fine for a couple or two friends. A little pricy for the location and house (just a bit dated) but not too bad! We went to South Brohard and Manasota Key Beach and each one was like a 10-20 min drive depending on traffic. We enjoyed our time!

Dolphin Cottage

MaryannRating, 5 stars5 days ago

Dolphin Cottage was remarkably clean and the decor was beautiful. It looks like the house had been completely renovated. Everything (carpets, bathrooms, furniture, etc) seemed brand new and tastefully done. The sheets smelled great! The location of the house was very convenient to all major stores, and loads of restaurants. It was a short drive to downtown Venice and beaches. The screened in porch was a perfect way to start the day with a cup of coffee, and end it with a glass of wine, enjoying the sunset and view of the pond and wildlife. I would highly recommend!

Lakefront Pool Home-Open, Bright and Spacious!

SusanRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Lovely home in great Venice location. Close to beach, downtown and all area stores and restaurants. 4 adults and 3 children fit comfortably and had enough space to spread out and relax. Pool was great, just be sure to request the heat is turned on before arrival as it took two days to warm up but was perfect once it did. Beds were comfortable, and bedrooms had ample storage. Would definitely go back again.

We loved staying at this home! The location was perfect for our needs. It was an extremely easy walk to the restaurants and the beach. It was even manageable for our 5 year old who loved the walks. Waking up and having a morning coffee looking out over Lyons Bay was so peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.

Jared’s house is ideal for a people who like to go to the beach. It had all the beach gear and is about 10 minutes from Venice and Nakomis beaches. The neighborhood is quiet and the sunset view is the best! The couches are great for movie night—super spacious and comfy! Definitely recommend.

Bea’s place was nice and accommodating. The condo was clean, just as described, and stocked with supplies, except extra toilet paper. Bea was very responsive and helpful throughout my stay. The pool is ok and clean, but the area is nothing fancy. If you are seeking a clean, safe place for a getaway, this place is great!

The beach chairs and umbrella came in handy and my daughters loved the scooters. A nice, quiet location with great privacy, yet a short walk to turtle beach. Would highly recommend!!!
