Love Laurel Bungalow. It is adorable, comfortable, and loved our stay. The furniture is not only cute, it is very comfortable. Our beds were so comfortable, and the room was roomy. Everyone who came to visit loved it. I loved having coffee on the screen porch, swimming in the pool, and the outdoor shower!! The Hosts were wonderful!
Great house that was immaculately clean. Fantastic backyard and pool. Wonderful outdoor kitchen. The hosts are very friendly and fix things immediately.
The house was wonderful, well appointed ame we enjoyed all of its amenities. Very close to downtown Venice and the beaches. Made for a great visit with family!
Neighborhood was in a great location for us to be close to all the attractions in Venice, our extended family in sarasota, and a boat ramp.
The home was very clean with all the kitchen utensils you would ever need, and the appliances were very nice.
The pool and the outdoor area is set up perfect with great furniture and cooking area.
We really could not have asked for a better place to stay , and we already booked another stay for next year.
We had a great stay here. The outdoor space was amazing and the listing pictures were very accurate. Convenient location to downtown Venice, beaches, Sarasota airport etc. Would stay here again!
What a wonderful home with everything considered and thought out so well! We were rained in for a couple of days and kept busy with games, puzzles, and great porch swings for reading nooks and storm watching. Thank you!
This property is lovely! It is clean, spacious and so well thought out. Our favorite space was the backyard with the covered porch and amazing pool! The owners are very kind and quickly responded to messages! 10/10 recommend!
Fantastic location.....close to EVERYTHING! My wife is 74 and doesn't go to the beach much so the pool was a HIT! The house has everything you need and the outdoor kitchen and covered area was perfect. Edie, the property manager was easy to contact and responded promptly. Hopefully this lovely home will be available for our next year's vavaction! A definite 10
The house was perfect for our family. Loved the pool. Everything we needed was already there. Greg was very responsive to any questions and we will def look to come back soon!
Wonderful property. Check-in was easy and communication with owners was excellent. Great location to historic downtown Venice. We spent 75% of our time in the pool or enjoying the outdoor kitchen and deck. The house had everything you need. We hope to come back!
Cute house with great pool area. Owners were responsive and easy to communicate with. Pool was great. We went to the local VFW and it was so much fun. If you’re members you should check it out. We enjoyed our stay.
Laurel Bungalow is a beautiful gem in Venice. Quiet location, comfortable beds, lovely outdoor space/ pool and the outdoor shower made us feel right at home. The owners put a lot of love into the property and home and it shows.
Communication was perfect and minor issues were quickly resolved. Highly recommended - you won't be disappointed!
Loved this house so much! Luckily it was available for a return trip. Every area of this home is so very nice. My husband and I stayed in the pool house this week, loved the privacy which allowed our son and family to stretch out in the house. Pool area, outdoor kitchen with large table and ample seating was the perfect for wonderful family memories.
Great communication and help from hosts when needed!
Hope to stay again!

We had an absolute blast! Your home is so lovely! My parents, my husband, and our pups had an amazing/relaxing time! You have such a wonderful set up in your back yard!
It is the perfect set up for dog family’s. We lived outside basically! We only were inside to cook meals and sleep!
God willing we still have our dog with us next year we will certainly be back!
The details put into this place is outstanding!
Beautiful pool and lounging area with an outdoor TV and shower!
Very clean. Side porch was great for the dogs to go potty and relax when bugs got bad. We even played Scrabble that was on the porch table! My son and girlfriend stayed in the pool house, and we watched some basketball in there after dinner one night. Huge theatre setting in pool house! Fabulous!
We never showered inside! Great tropical retreat close to town and beaches!
Nestled in a historic district in Venice, Florida this beautifully appointed house, grounds & in-ground salt H2O pool helped us shake off the northern cold. The interior has all of the high end appliances, comfy beds, couches and chairs. The outside bedroom/movie theatre was perfect for our guests and the outside shower was heaven. BBQs were frequent as was sampling all of the great restaurants in Venice. Since this was our first time using VERBO we were pleasantly surprised. The owners were very gracious in sharing their beautiful home with our family.
