Pet-Friendly South Venice Home Near Gulf Beaches
Make The Coral Shell in beautiful South Venice your tropical home‑away‑from‑home. This spacious, guest‑loved Venice, Florida vacation rental offers privacy, comfort, and everything you need for a memorable Gulf Coast stay—close to Venice Beach, Manasota Key Beach, Caspersen Beach, Nokomis Beach, parks, golf courses, and shopping. For extra photos and trip‑planning info, many guests simply search “the coral shell rentsouthvenice” to visit our house website before booking, and all reservations are still made securely through Vrbo. With fast Wi‑Fi, beach gear, bikes, and a bright sunroom workspace, The Coral Shell is ideal for vacationers, remote workers, snowbirds, and relocation scouting alike.
This well‑kept private residence sits in a quiet South Venice neighborhood and is fully stocked so you can relax, unwind, and enjoy yourself. Create lasting memories with family or friends at The Coral Shell—your peaceful retreat near the Gulf of Mexico and the Intracoastal Waterway.
Nestled along the Intracoastal Waterway by the Gulf Coast’s Lemon Bay and just a few minutes south of Venice Island, this peaceful residential area of single‑family homes sits “west of the trail,” meaning west/Gulfside of Highway 41 (Tamiami Trail). It’s a prime location for exploring Venice, Englewood, Nokomis, and the entire Suncoast region.
Enjoy endless outdoor activities: walk or bike the Legacy Trail at Shamrock Park & Nature Center, explore the South Venice Lemon Bay Preserve, kayak along Lemon Bay, or hunt for shark teeth at Caspersen Beach. Visit the shops and restaurants on charming Venice Island, fish from the Venice Fishing Pier, or enjoy seaside, open‑air yoga at Venice Beach or Manasota Key Beach.
Golfers will appreciate the many nearby courses, including Lake Venice Golf Club, Pelican Pointe Golf & Country Club, and Jacaranda West. Bird enthusiasts can visit The Rookery, a beloved local wildlife haven perfect for photography, nature walks, and spotting herons, egrets, and other coastal birds.

Very clean, nicely furnished, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, quiet neighborhood, and very convenient location for Venice activities. Nice to have a washer and dryer. Enjoyed use of the bikes. There was also tons of beach equipment.Very nice host. We were provided with muffins, bottled water, coffee and cream.Would definitely stay again.
We really cant say enough how happy we were with this home . Cleanliness is important to us and this home was as clean as clean can be ! Very nicely decorated with quality furniture and very well stocked with all the essentials . The neighborhood is very quiet and we have stayed in many rentals in South Venice and this was the best . Even the landscaping was nice as well . Communication with the owner was excellent and would highly recommend this home to anyone ......
Excellent. When issues were brought up to the manager they were addressed in a timely manner. The location worked well for us. It was a quiet, friendly neighborhood. Just about everything we needed was supplied. The shower and tub floors were a little slippery so I did buy a bathmat. The garden hose did not work. Overall we really appreciated the property!
