This is the second year we have rented from this owner. You cannot ask for a nicer place to spend your vacation. The house is clean and well maintained. We love the location, close to Shamrock Park for nice wAlks or bike tides along the water. Downtown Venice with shopping and great restaurants is close by. And most important, it's close to the doggie beach. We give Sunset Villa 5 stars and our dog gives it 5 paws up!! ##### Ted D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lucia S., Midland City, AL 5 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous!

We have already rented another house from him and will return with friends. ##### Lucia S. Stayed 29 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol F., Alpharetta, GA 13 Aug 2018 #### Perfect vacation spot! This home was incredibly pristine - including the outside - and was exactly how the pictures described it. Great space for spreading out. Kitchen had new(er) appliances and was well stocked with the basics (cups/glasses, dishes, bake ware/utensils, etc). The home came with two very nice beach cruiser bikes and a lot of beach toys. It was easy to bike from the house to the paved bike paths that took us up and down the intercostal. Convenient location to both the Island and south & east Venice. Especially appreciated the washer/dryer as well. Be sure to take advantage of the provided ferry pass and enjoy the beach! We will definitely stay here again. ##### Carol F. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jim D. 25 Jan 2016 #### Comfortable, clean, convenient and cute If you are looking for a place to stay in Venice, I highly recommend Sunset Villa. Located in a quiet neighborhood, it was convenient to the beach, downtown Venice, golf courses and the many good restaurants in the area. The home is very clean and comfortable with every amenity you can think of -- including robes and slippers. The kitchen is well stocked with anything you need to cook and enjoy a good meal. There are welcome snacks and coffee supplies for you when you arrive! Our dog Chloe loved it too and having a fenced back yard was an extra bonus. Ruth is a very attentive owner and makes sure you have everything you need. We hope to return someday! ##### Jim D. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cindy O., Cedar Hill Mo 23 Sept 2016 #### Wonderful place to stay! Sunset Villa was very nice. The bedrooms were split to either side of the living room and kitchen, each with their own bathrooms. Was clean and everything we needed was there. Ruth was helpful in keeping us updated on actions to take as the area experienced Hermine. Too bad Ruth had no control over the weather! I am sure everything would have been perfect if we hadn't had 5 days of rain. Venice beach was covered with shells and we used Ruth's Florida snowshovel to find quite a few tiny shark teeth. The fenced yard was fun and safe for our Yorkie puppy to play. Will definitely stay again! Thank you Ruth! ##### Cindy O. Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly C. 27 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Total Relaxation This rental was exactly what our family needed! The house was fully stocked with everything we needed so besides filling it with our food, there was nothing to worry about. The house was clean, quaint and offered lots of storage space so you could really unpack and make yourself feel at home. We loved the big back yard with the privacy fence- this made traveling with our 2 big dogs and our 3 children so much easier. We relaxed at the house quite a bit, but also visited 3 of the nearby beaches which were between 10 and 20 minutes from the house. They were all beautiful! During our stay, the famous Venice Beach fishing pier was under construction for repairs; however we found another great pier (Anger Pier) in Englewood close by. We liked that area so much, we went back the next evening to enjoy a Sunset and Dolphin Cruise that takes off right across the street from the pier. Detwilers Amish Market was so amazing we visited twice during the week to stock up, and the nearby Ideal Car Museum was such a cool FREE attraction to stroll through. Our rental contact, Ruth, was fantastic. Excellent communication and easy to get in touch with if needed; however, the house was perfect and we didn’t have to contact her at all during our stay. The rental information binder she has in the house was super helpful too. We would definitely book this rental again. The house and area were great if you are looking for a relaxing beach week! ##### Kelly C.

Great location with quick access to everything in Venice including the island. Lots of restaurants nearby with great food and lots to do on weekends. The backyard is fenced and very private in a quiet neighborhood. The Florida room was perfect to set up my office to enjoy the sunshine while working. The host communication was great through the reservation process although we did not need them during our stay (which is a good thing)! Enjoy your stay! ##### Ann-Constance P.

We really like the area, being close to the beach and convenience for our son. The only issue was the fact that the cable/internet was down due to Hurricane Ian. We only found out a few hours before check-in on Wednesday of our 5 night stay. It was unsure exactly when it would be restored. We would have rented a different house if we had known beforehand. Being unable to watch any weather, television or sporting events, we asked if we could check out early. VRBO and Dan approved our change of plans. By the time we left on Friday afternoon, Comcast had sent someone to work on the service. Despite this issue, we will consider staying again for future visits to the area. Dan was timely in response to any questions we had, overall a great host. ##### Travis/Dana M.

The house itself is very spacious, comfortable, clean, has everything you can can possibly need, in a quiet neighborhood and is in an amazing location. I felt very safe, welcomed and home away from home in this house! Thank you again for helping my pups and me get through our transition!

The facility itself is in need of some upgrades to made it a more pleasant experience. We spent a great deal of time cleaning each and every day. The backyard is very sandy and it was impossible to keep it out of the house. The provided amenities were not the best. Chipped dishes, poor quality pots and pans, etc… The cabinets are of poor quality and the surface is coming loose. I just expected much nicer comforts for the price we paid. The neighborhood is very nice and so close to everything we enjoy. ##### Laurie K. Stayed 28 nights in Nov 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Shawn O. 18 Sept 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sunset Villa was cozy. Sunset Villa was overall clean, nice amenities available. The inclusion of the bikes was really nice since the bike path is so close. We didn't use the kitchen except to make coffee in the morning so I don't have any feedback about cooking. The only negative feedback I would give is the shower curtains should be changed or cleaned more often. ##### Shawn O.

The location was ideal. Ruth was extremely accommodating and the house was fully furnished. She even went beyond to include highlights in the the area!!! ##### Amy A. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities House was very clean and cozy. Everything needed for a week’s vacation stay was provided for. Beds were very comfortable. Very quiet neighborhood. Snacks and water bottles in fridge were a nice touch. Ruth (owner) was vey nice and quickly responds to any questions. We brought our two dogs and they enjoyed having the enclosed yard to go out in. They especially enjoyed the doggie beach which was only about a 10 minute drive away – and the reason we chose the area and house. The doggie beach itself is very clean and stretches quite far. Also, many really good places to eat (especially Italian) all within 5-10 minute drive. Enjoyed downtown Venice, Sharky’s on the Pier, Benny Bada Bing Pizza, and the New York Pizza Café has great pizza. Drive to St. Armand’s Island/Sarasota is a nice, short drive away. Would recommend staying – especially if you have dogs. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jackie S. 23 Apr 2019 #### Our stay at Sunset Villa We enjoyed our stay at Sunset Villa everything was clean and comfortable and charming...the owners have a book that is very helpful with maps and things to do in the local area and they even had a basket of snacks on the kitchen counter and water bottles in the frig... You have everything you need in the kitchen including a blender which I used for Morning smoothies they also have Beach towels and bikes very well appointed... Ruth was very helpful and the fenced backyard was perfect for our dogs ... We enjoyed staying there so we could visit my Son and his Family for Easter it was last minute and Ruth was very helpful with the process as well... I would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a pet friendly place that is Convient to the Beaches they even have access to the ferry that is for their neighborhood that goes to a Private part of the Beach that we will have to check out next time! ##### Jackie S. Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie S. 21 Dec 2018 #### Can't wait to go back! We loved our month at Sunset Villa. The property was perfect for us....very clean house, convenient location, and a nice fenced yard which was great for our dogs. Ruth was extremely accommodating and responsive even going out of her way to bring us extra chairs in time for the Venice boat parade. We visited nearby Shamrock Park daily for walks with our dogs and enjoyed the bikes included in the house rental to ride along the intercoastal. Another perk was the ferry pass to the private South Venice Beach. Wish we didn't have to return to NY! ##### Laurie S.
