Review of Venice, Florida


What’s not to love?!??
Star Rating - 3/18/2020
I love Venice! I made several visits before calling Venice home and I do not regret it one bit. The locals here are very kind. There is plenty to do (I am not of retirement age) but if it’s more excitement you want, a quick drive up to Sarasota will cure that! I enjoy the relaxing, slower pace. It’s like a breath of fresh air among the chaos of the world. If you like to golf, spend time at the beach, walking trails then Venice is great.
I recommend making a visit or two, talking with locals and exploring the area. Of course if you need advice or help I am more than happy to recommend activities or dining. If you are thinking of buying but distance and travel is a problem, especially now, working remotely with you and doing video walk throughs a of homes has become the norm and I am happy to help there as well.
Whether you want to retire or just get away from big city stress, Venice is perfect! Come on down and check it out for yourself. See you soon!

Lee Anna: Thank you for posting a positive vibe of Venice. I’m flying down in February to look at new construction in Venice and the surrounding area. I will not be a Snowbird. I also do not trust contractors.

I cannot understand why anyone would disagree with this. Nothing here is incorrect or wrong. Hmm. Let's hope those who disagree leave. :-)
