Circle Drive Venice Island Pool Home a Short Walk To Your Own Private Beach!

Our Venice Island home is less than 2 blocks off the beach and has been a short term vacation rental for the past 14 years. Unlike many, we are a legally licensed and inspected City of Venice vacation rental.
The TLC is evident from the moment you arrive. Lush landscaping greets you as you pull in the driveway and the warm feeling of home continues as you walk through the front door. The sunken living room is well furnished with that tropical feel of Tommy Bahama tables, comfy loveseat and couch and a large TV for those quiet evenings at home. The kitchen is equipped with virtually everything you'll need to whip up that gourmet dinner which you can enjoy in your dining room or poolside in your private lanai. Three bedrooms await in the split plan layout. Located on one side of the house is the master suite which is comprised of a private water closet/shower/bath, a walk-in closet and a large vanity/sink area to prep for those evenings out or to just retire to your king size bed. On the opposite side of the house are two large bright bedrooms with a shared full bath in between. Each bedroom has a queen size bed, ceiling fans overhead and plenty of storage.

Enjoy Swimming? Spend your days at your own private heated pool or stroll a block and a half away to your own private beach - the choice is yours! Enjoy biking? Venice is full of great trails and paths that can take you all the way to Sarasota or if you like an easier, shorter pace then just amble your way around the island on the provided bikes. Enjoy walking? You can go south to Sharky's - one of the best Tiki Beach Bars in Florida - to enjoy that afternoon cocktail or walk north to Venice Avenue for lunch or that evening meal at one of the many restaurants. So many choices and so little time!

Caution: If you are not familiar with Venice, be sure you understand the difference between a Vacation Home on Venice Island and homes located off the Island of Venice that claim to be close to beaches and downtown Venice.

Enjoy your search and your vacation!

Circle Drive Home

This is a wonderful beach home! Very clean and well maintained. It was stocked with everything you would need. We really enjoyed the patio/pool area and used it daily. The beach was also wonderful and just a short walk away. The owners are very responsive to questions, and they left a welcoming gift on the counter for us when we arrived-we thought that was very sweet! We would definitely stay again!

Beautiful Venice Beach home

Our second stay at Circle Dr. did not disappoint! We felt right at home, my husband is recuperating from an A-fib episode, this large, beautiful, quiet, clean and tastefully decorated home worked wonders for him. Relaxing by the pool even on rainy days felt heavenly. Our wedding anniversary was extra special this year. Property owners go out of their way to make guests feel comfortable and welcome. Having our fur baby with us is priceless. Thank you John and Chris, God bless

Excellent Stay

This is the second time we stayed at this property and both times had excellent vacations. Everything you might need is available in the house including: dish soap, sponge, paper towel/toilet paper, beach supplies, bikes, etc. The location is excellent if you are looking for a quiet, relaxed neighborhood with easy access to the beach and the town.

Beautiful home on the island

We couldn't have found a nicer place to stay on the Island of Venice. The home is beautiful and immaculately clean. It was well stocked and the pool was clean and warm. John and Chris as very accommodating and gracious hosts. The location was ideal, being only a couple blocks from the beach.
