Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Venice Gardens

We couldn’t have found a better place to stay. The house is exactly as described and it is SO spacious. It’s only 7 minutes from Manasota Key Beach and when you go, it has plenty of parking and amenities. Also, Joshua responded very quickly to any questions or concerns we had. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb home. The house was spotless and exactly as described. Although the pool was small, it was cozy and perfect for relaxing. The heater was always on, making it a lovely spot to unwind. What really impressed us was the safety feature around the pool - a secure gate that prevented our toddler and dog from accessing the pool unsupervised. This gave us huge peace of mind. One of the rooms had a clever setup with two twin beds, and one of them had a convenient slide-on feature that allowed it to convert into a king-sized bed. It was super easy to assemble and worked perfectly for us. The house had everything we needed, and its location just nine minutes from the beach was ideal. We enjoyed collecting shark teeth and spending quality time together as a family. Overall, we had a wonderful long weekend, and I'd highly recommend this home to others, especially those with young children or pets.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the turtles nest. It is in a peaceful community and has a wonderful pool area. It’s was comfortable and accommodating for the six of us . The house was clean and had everything we needed to stay in and cook a few nights . We loved visiting the many beaches that are not very far away. The Shamrock Park was nice to walk to and around . Kindra was very informative and had directions and expectations laid out. We will definitely be back when we’re in the area.

I had the perfect mini vacay with the grandkids and friends! so many games and activities. beautiful place, pool, and close to the beaches. Thank you Brian. We had an awesome time. Can't wait to return

Janet was a great host. She communicated perfectly all check-in and check-out instructions. The place was just as pictured. Perfect for two people. Very quiet neighborhood. Even though the space is connected, we never heard Janet on the other side. Very close to restaurants and shopping. We will definitely stay here again.

Venture and the exterior are all very upgraded and well taken care of. Very clean. Looking forward to renting again in the future.

This place is amazing!!! Jay (the host) was super responsive and helpful. The house is gorgeous with all of the amenities you could want including kayaks, fishing poles (there's a lake in your backyard), towels, beach chairs, coolers, etc. The house is in a gated community with a beautiful zero entry infinity pool (heated) that my boys really enjoyed. There's 3 bedrooms with plenty of space for a large family. I really can't say enough about this house. We will be back next year!

Very spacious and lovely home. Loved the decor. It had everything we needed for my family of 5, we settled right in. Shannon was very responsive and accomodating to our situation. Would stay again in the future and will reccomend to family and friends!

★★★★★ Great stay with an amazing pool! Dave was a wonderful host and his place exceeded our expectations. The pool was absolutely the highlight of our stay - we spent hours enjoying it in the beautiful Florida sunshine. The house itself was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The location was perfect, with easy access to the gorgeous local beaches. We loved being able to switch between pool time and beach time throughout our stay. Dave's place provided the ideal home base for exploring Venice. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to the area. Thanks for a memorable vacation, Dave!

Our host, Ewelina was so friendly and quick to respond to my questions! We enjoyed our stay, the house and pool were very clean!

A Slice of Paradise was amazing. Robert was a GREAT Host , he answered every question with in hours, if not minutes. Great location and close to everything. After a couple days it felt like home, when our 6 weeks were up we did not want to leave. We hit 7 different beaches and some 3 or 4 time each. Shark’s and Pop’s were our favorite restaurants long with Dunkin most every day and DQ once a week Detwiler’s Farm Market on Tamiami Trail was our go to for fresh fruits and vegetables. Their bakery was wonderful. We would highly recommended A Slice of Paradise. We can’t wait to go back . Frank, Sue and Paisley.

We had just one short week and would always love to come back. The large bed in one of two bedrooms lets you sleep so well, just perfect. The kitchen is very well equipped, with lots of plates/cups/everything you need. Plenty of towels, umbrella and chairs for the beach (Manasota beach by car approx 10 min). Outdoor shower even for furry friends. Pool nice, clean, just great. The nicest garden of all houses around. All thumbs up.

We loved our stay! This home was absolutely spotless and beautifully decorated. Our host went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. John provided excellent tips on local eateries and attractions in a book on site. Communication was seamless - responsive and considerate, ensuring our stay was comfortable from start to finish. Impressed by the attention to detail. This home is very well appointed - the kitchen has everything needed for a stay at home meal, your morning coffee or just a snack in front of the giant TV. Location was great - close to Englewood and Venice, many beaches, restaurants and shops to explore as well.

If you're looking for a serene and quaint getaway near the beach, this place is perfect! Nick and Courtney were incredibly kind and accommodating hosts and they keep their beautiful bungalow and pool in tip top shape. The house was perfectly spacious and comfortable for our family of 3, with all the amenities one would need for an extended stay away from home. They even provide chairs, an umbrella, and sifters for the beach. The grounds are beautiful and spacious and ideal if you enjoy more nature around you like we do. It's very conveniently located to the beach with plenty of restaurants nearby. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. It was absolutely perfect for the stress-free getaway we were looking for! My husband asked several days before leaving if we could come back again in the future. We certainly will be!

We are returned guests. The house is amazing. The pool is lovely. It’s close to area where we like to go and she was very responsive to all of our questions.

Our family loved our stay here. We all had our own space to relax. The bedrooms were comfortable and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed and was beautiful! The pool was clean and was perfect. We spent a lot of time relaxing outside. Friendly neighbors and less than 10 minutes from everything

What an amazing find and would highly recommend to anyone. A beautiful, peaceful location and a beautiful home which I can only describe as homely and pristine. The host was extremely professional and friendly. I cannot stress to anyone else that this Airbnb is fabulous and worth every penny.

Yve was a truly delightful host who made our stay incredibly memorable. Having stayed in several Airbnbs, I can genuinely say that her thoughtful, personal touches set this experience apart. Each room feels like a refined, boutique hotel—elegant, comfortable, and designed with care. The beds were extremely comfortable and the furniture very nice. The attention to detail reflects not only a love for hospitality but a clear intention to create a space that fosters both rest and family connection. The location is ideal—just minutes from the beach, with easy access to local dining spots and Publix for convenience. As a local Floridian, I deeply appreciated this hidden gem, and I will absolutely be returning. Thank you Yve for your hospitality.

Spacious and clean place! Worked great for our family with children. House is centrally located to all Venice has to offer. Neighborhood is quiet. Houses close together but backyard has privacy from neighbors on all sides due to nice privacy fence. Backyard screened in porch was a nice feature. We used the garage to park in which was nice. Games were a nice feature for the kids. House was very clean and felt large with tall ceilings and nice layout. Thanks Roman for the great stay!

We had such a wonderful time at Kenneth's place. The home was comfortable, beautiful, clean and he thought of every detail to make sure our stay was enjoyable. From chairs to take to the beach, towels and even baby supplies, if needed. He was quick to respond and very helpful. Will definitely return and recommend. Thank you!

We only stayed here to sleep one night between jobs for work and it served that purpose well. The beds were comfortable and there were blackout curtains in each room, which was extremely appreciated. We liked the split floor plan with the kitchen smack in the middle of the house with access from both sides. Very nice for having privacy between rooms. The only thing I would mention is that there is a noticeable smell upon entering. I’m almost certain that a former smoker lived here and that smell is just in the walls and ducts. I am 7 months pregnant and sensitive to smells, so that was a little tough for me and was even noticed by my husband and our friend as well. I was surprised none of the reviews mentioned that. If you’re sensitive to former smoke smell, this may not be the place for you. However, in spite of all this, I do feel the home is a great value for the nightly rate and we had a positive experience during our short time there.

Mariana's place was perfect. Very clean and equipped with everything needed. Location was central to many restaurants, grocery stores, and boat ramps. The pool was pristine and a much needed retreat for the hot days. Mariana was a responsive, friendly, and hospitable host. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Melinda’s place was the cleanest Airbnb I’ve stayed at, beautiful decor, had all the amenities one could need (including beach accessories), perfect location close to all the beaches/food/grocery, etc. her check in/out instructions were easy, no hiccups with anything. I would highly recommend without hesitation and plan to stay here with every future. Thank you, so much!

Our purpose for the weekend was to disconnect from the noise, stress, and rush of everyday life. The house was located in a very quiet neighborhood, easy to find, and we did decompress! The house had everything we needed. We didn’t use the kitchen much but there looked to be everything. The bed was very comfy. We had an issue with the tvs and contacted host. There was someone there in 5 minutes to help. (Turns out the previous guests had changed the input. ) All of our outings were less than 15 minutes away - beaches, restaurants, shopping, and nature. We had a great time. Venice is a gem of a place to relax - such a different atmosphere from our day to day. Hope to be back sometime in the future.
