Flamingo House - Experience Old Florida!

Come experience Old Florida in our circa 1957 Mid-Century Modern home! It boasts open living areas with the bedrooms on one wing of the house. A glassed in lanai stretches across the entire back of the house. The floors are original terrazzo. There are many vintage furnishings throughout the house.

You will enjoy the large kitchen with original working cooktop and oven. It is well stocked and very pink!

Flamingo House has two bedrooms. The master has a king sized bed, and the second bedroom has a queen. Between the bedrooms you will find a beautiful vintage tiled bathroom that has been recently updated. We also have a laundry room/half bath combo, and we recently installed an outdoor shower!

There is a full sized sleeper in the living room as well as a roll away bed. The sofa on the lanai is quite comfy as well! You will find the laundry and half bath off the kitchen. In the mudroom you will find plenty of chairs and toys for the beach. We even have a sifter for all the sharks teeth you will find at the beach!

There are many public beaches close by. Manasota Beach is about 3 miles south of us. It has bathroom facilities and public parking. Blind Pass Beach, 8 miles south of us, is a state park with free parking, bathhouse facilities, and wide beaches. There are several excellent public beaches on Venice Island, including a dog beach.
During your stay at this holiday home, you'll be within walking distance of Venice Area Audubon Society. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the holiday home.

Nice House close downtown and beaches!!
So I’m having a hard time writing this because I want to be able to rent this house again and doing so will possibly limit my chances in the future!!! We VRBO all the time and have to say by far this house was the best stocked and had everything you needed for a great day at the beach. There was lots of space to hang out once back home. The retro relaxing chair in the living room, OMG so freaking comfortable!!! We had a couple hiccups, but the host is very communicative and responsive. If I was to complain about something. It would be the frying pans need to be updated. Apparently other renters had put them in the dishwasher, so the coating is spotty. Bottom line. I would definitely stay here again!!!

Love this place!
This was our second time staying at the Flamingo House. This time we stayed for 3.5 weeks and love the property. The neighborhood is quiet, everyone around is nice, and the owner is great! Everything is close by and easy to get to, the house is fully furnished with everything you could think of including beach stuff. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Venice, thanks for a great few weeks!

Adorable MCM vibe
Great little property. Love the vintage vibe. Close to everything. Equipped with everything you need for an extended stay. Mitzi communicated quickly and resolved small faucet issue swiftly. Beds were comfy. Great little fenced in area for the pupper. Nice neighborhood. Street is a little busy at times but no problems. Highly recommend.

Fantastic home in Venice
Spacious home with retro character! Mitzi has thought of everything her guests might need & gave us great suggestions for restaurants & activities! Everyone we met (several neighbors,sales clerks,even the cashier @ carwash) was friendly! Being bird watchers, we loved the Audubon rookery,which is nearby & all the egrets & storks that frequent the neighborhood!We hope to return.

Florida paradise
My husband and I really enjoyed this rental, so much so we are renting for 3 months next year. Number one for me was the beach and beach ferry! My husband loved the surrounding golf courses. I also really enjoyed the Shamrock biking path on the Venetian waterway. The rental exceeded our expectations!

Great home so much fun
We enjoyed the Flamingo house we stayedinit for 30 days. Mitzi is so nice and kind. The house is located in a great neighborhood near amazing beaches and great restaurants. The house had beach chairs umbrellas and bikes so we could use on our stay. They have a ferry pass so we could go in for a ride. And the shower out side is a great idea so we could wash our self and the kids so we didn't get sand in the house. I would recommend this place.

We stayed for a long weekend with a friend and everyone loved the property! The owner communicated directly and helped us with restaurant selections. The house has everything you need including beach stuff. Checking was a breeze as well as checkout. The house was clean, tidy and had a great old time Florida feel! It was close to the main road and the neighborhood is quiet and quaint. We get to Venice often and will definitely stay again! Thanks for the nice place!

Great house, Great location!!!
The house is much nicer than the pics! It is furnished and decorated in mid century, Old Florida. I absolutely loved this home! Having washer and dryer very convenient! Outdoor shower was much needed!! Location was great- we used the neighborhood ferry to go to the beach. Even though there was red tide during our stay, this beach is just beautiful and not crowded at all! Perfect for anyone who doesn’t care for crowded beaches:) We also went to Caspersen Beach and found a few small sharks teeth- that was a great day at the beach as well! Overall a great stay!

The house was very well kept and had everything we needed. It's a comfortable home with the perfect ratio of midcentury modern decor to Florida cliche.
