Lovely home- very clean and if you have forgotten anything, most likely it’s there! The pool is great! The a/c went out in the middle of the night Friday. I sent a message at 7:30am- he was there at 8:00 followed by hvac. It was fixed by 9- grateful! Would definitely recommend

We were in town for a quick family reunion and stayed at the Poolside Oasis. We were delighted with the location (very close to restaurants, the beach, and of course the family) also the cleanliness of the property. We would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again.

Venice getaway

A delightful, quaint, meticulous house with a pool in a local neighborhood. A short drive to historic Venice, the beach and walking trails as well as shopping and museums, etc. The extra touch of assortment of morning coffee and snacks was appreciated!!!

Quiet neighborhood, private pool with additional secondary fence around property. Excellent for dog lovers. Kitchen had every utensil you could imagine. Coffee/ tea bar was a nice touch along with a few snacks and water bottles. Extremely clean. Bed was comfortable. Two tvs with cable. Definitely will book again if in the area.

Fantastic Property

This is a wonderful property. It was very clean. We were pleasantly surprised by some of the amenities provided. They had bottle water, coffee and various other snacks and condiments available. The property owners were very nice and made the check-in process extremely easy and communicated with us the day of our arrival to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. At first we were a little nervous about the heated pool because it was at 77 degrees and we're used to pool water around 85 degrees but the next day the water temperature was 86. We assumed it was on a timer and the temperature increased while we were there and then probably on a timer to lower the day we checked out so don't worry if the pool isn't warm enough the day you get there. We would definitely stay here again.

Awesome house!

This house was one of the best. Having stayed at multiple VBRO’s I am not often impressed. This home was great! The owners seemed to have thought of almost everything. The thing that impressed me THE MOST was the fully stocked coffee bar, nothing is more terrible after flying all day, getting in late and up early to then have to go find coffee…not an issue with this home, they had it ALL..its the small things that make the difference. Having phone chargers provided- the bomb, labeling cabinets and drawers in the kitchen- brilliant! My kids lived in the pool when not in the ocean, excellent pool area. Would definitely stay here again! Owners are very responsive, thanks for letting us stay!

I knew within 30 min what I would be rating.

I was so pleasantly surprised by this home. I am usually skeptical of staying places, even hotels, because you never know what to expect. Not only was the home exceptionally clean but the owners truly thought of anything and everything you might need during your stay. We were 1000 miles away from our home but we felt so comfortable here it felt like a second home. The outdoor area was perfect. We used the pool every single day and our kids were obsessed. My son even said one of his first words “pool” because he loved it so much. The area was perfect. Very quiet and private, close to anything you might need. We already plan to book this home again for our visit next year.

A great little place!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a few nights for a long weekend getaway. The pool with a screened lanai was a great outdoor place to relax. We also really enjoyed all the nice little personal touches such as charger cords in each room, coffee/tea bar, and a basket of snacks/waters. The neighborhood is very quiet. We really enjoyed our stay!

Everything you could need

Overall this property was a great place to stay for a family with kids. The property is in a neighborhood that you could say “local” Floridians live. The house itself has 2 nice bedrooms and a pullout couch that was very useful. It is just 7 minutes to the local beach which is awesome. The pool was amazing and was used quite a bit during our stay. The hosts were probably the best I have experienced thus far renting houses. Lastly the house is supplied with pretty much everything you need to feel at home. Literally everything but your daily food is there for you. We will surely stay here again when in the Venice area.
