Sunrise, en suite

Cozy beach bungalow Great neighborhood Close to beach and food Great sunsets Easy owner contact/mgmt

Owner lives onsite in an adjacent property and she was very responsive each time a maintenance issue arose. The house is older, but electrical and plumbing issues aside, it was a nice retreat from the winter snow back home. We enjoyed sitting on the pier and watching the sunrise. There are a few good restaurants within walking distance of the house. The home is centrally located to both Venice Beach and Nokomis Beach with everything we needed just a quick drive away. It was an easy drive to both Ft Myers and Punta Gorda airports.

Great property and location. Host was very easy to work with. Would stay here again!

House is great for boat owners or boat renters. Just minutes from the gulf and right on Roberts Bay. We have a 22' Bay boat, in good conditions we could run to the gulf and on rough days we could head South to Lemon Bay via the inter coastal. Water and electric on the dock. Just 2 blocks from Captain Eddie's for lunch or dinner. Minutes away from Pop's if you want to travel by boat to lunch or dinner. Great place to be right on the water. Lucy May was a wonderful host and helpful.

The property was in need of some repairs but it’s charm far outweighed any problem

Lucy was really great to work with. The house is tired but a great location. Lucy is working hard to keep the maintenance up but you can tell its a struggle. For needs it wasn't an issue.

This property is for sale, potentially with a purchase pending. To that end I feel the homeowner has given up on a quality stay, or her standards are low to begin with. There were additional renters on the property. The closets and cabinets were full of the homeowner’s clothes, makeup and medicines. Left a day early due to the peculiar conditions

Very interesting and eclectic property on the bay and close to good restaurants. Each bedroom was in a corner of the house, which gave more privacy sleeping. The showers were only in the bathrooms off two of the bedrooms, but sharing was not an issue with us. The view of the bay was the best part. The only drawback worth mentioning was limited air conditioning circulation. Ceiling fans in each room helped, but the fan in one bedroom did not work. There were a couple of portable fans in the house that were repositioned to cool the room at night.

This house is in a wonderful location, right across a quiet street from the water, with a dock to enjoy. The neighborhood is peaceful and lovely for walking, and close to restaurants. We loved sitting out on the dock and watching the birds, jumping fish and boats go by. There is a nice sitting area at the end of the dock, perfect for evening cocktails or meals. It is also a very short drive into downtown Venice and to Nakomis Beach. The open floor plan gave everyone in our family plenty of room to relax. We really loved the house and it’s fun decor! Any issues that came up were immediately dealt with by the owner, Lucy. She was great to work with! The dock and property are shared with a small, one bedroom rental unit that is located behind the house. However, this did not impact our stay at all. The house is located very near Tamiami Trial, and you can hear some of the traffic. But we did not find it to be a problem, and were still able to really enjoy the dock! Overall, we loved staying here and hope to come back next year! We had a great vacation.

The property was in a great location. We were able to walk to a few different restaurants and it was a quick drive to other area attractions and shops. The big kitchen and spacious house provided us with a comfortable environment for entertaining my relatives whom we came to visit. And Lucy was a fabulous host, very accommodating and responsive.
