Venice Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Venice is a small town that is crisscrossed with more canals than the city for which it was named. This lovely town sits on the Myakka River along the Gulf of Mexico coastline, approximately 18 miles south of Sarasota, and fortunately features lots of equally lovely Venice vacation rentals. Venice vacations are ideal for beachcombers as Venice beaches are good for shell collecting, but fossil hunters know that it is among the best places in North America to find 50-million year old sharks teeth. They are relatively abundant here due to the ancient shark burial grounds located just offshore. Venice is also a very scenic place, abundant with beach plants such as sea grapes. It has a 750-foot fishing pier with a restaurant and snack bar. The beach at Venice also has a nature trail, park playground, restrooms and picnic areas. All of the usual beach activities are also available at Venice and they have a very unusual campground located in an old-growth oak tree hammock on the Myakka River. Indeed, Venice beach rentals are some of the most commonly booked! Every August, Venice hosts the “Sharks Tooth and Seafood Festival,” with displays of sharks teeth, a sharks’ tooth scramble and more. The town also has a quaint downtown shopping district and a wide variety of vacation lodging needs. Whether youre hoping for a memorable romantic getaway or cheap family beach vacations, Venice has a lot to offer. From Venice beach rentals to luxury villas, theres plenty of Venice vacation rentals to choose from. Venice vacations are just as diverse as the people who flock to Venice, so shouldnt you have lots of diverse accommodations to choose from too? Well thankfully you do! Everything from pet friendly vacations to weddings to cheap family beach vacations, Venice welcomes tourists from all walks of life!

Venice Weather & Climate

South Central Florida, along the Gulf Coast near the south end of Tampa Bay, enjoys warm weather with lots of sunshine year round. During the months of June through September, it is hot and humidity hovers around 50 percent or higher. Although this sounds high, Gulf breezes help to moderate temperatures and virtually every structure in Florida is equipped with air conditioning. The rainy season is from late May through October. You can expect almost daily thunderstorms during this time, but they dissipate quickly and within minutes the sun is shining again. Winters are much drier in comparison with lovely warm daytime temperatures and cool nights. The hurricane season in Florida runs from late August through November, but generally plenty of warning time is given for these types of tropical storms.
