This is one of those cases where you want to keep it a secret but The Beachcomber deserves the praise it is due. From the second we arrived, Tecla couldn't be a more perfect hostess. The cottage had just been refurbished and it was just lovely. The care and thought that went into the renovation, and the upkeep of the... More

Stayed in the "new" North Villa with boat slip. Beautiful decorations and all new appliances. A lucky find for our brief stay in the Venice area. Wonderfull beaches and great food everywhere. Tekla and Robert are the nicest host we have meet in our vacation / work travels. We wiil be back next year. Bob and Nancy

While the accommodations can't be beat what makes The Beachcomber a wonderful place to stay is Tekla and Robert. We felt like we were staying with friends. From arranging a late check-in for us as we visited family in Tampa on the drive down, to the handwritten welcome note, to the fresh flowers, to the cookies in the fridge, to... More

We stayed in unit #7 at the Beachcomber for a few days and had an absolutely great time. What can you say, clean, comfortable, tastefully furnished, a fully equipped kitchen and best of all, it's right on a beautiful, uncrowded beach. We got a bunch of shark teeth and some nice shells. It was fun watching the gulls and pelicans... More

Robert and Tekla have absolutely thought of everything for their guests. Our rental lacked nothing! Well equipped, clean and so inviting.......great location and beautiful beach and sunsets!!!!!!!!

Best Place to go for a quiet beachfront relaxing vacation. This was a little throw back to the 50's cottage that we rented; quaint and perfect for us to enjoy our 1st trip to Nokomis. Our cottage was so beautifully decorated and equipped w/just the perfect amenities. Thanks for everything we can't wait to come back & visit.... Very clean,... More

My favorite picks are room #3 and #4.....on the old... More

I intend to return to The Beachcomber at least once every year till I die. Therefore it is with some reluctance that I submit this review, fearing that my unstinting praise for the place will encourage others to visit and thus reduce my chances of getting in. However, since more generous folk than I have already extolled its virtues, decency,... More

The best place on Earth if you are looking for a quiet, restful vacation. There was plenty to do with a 9 year old child and extended family. We loved hunting for sharks teeth, snorkeling, and riding bikes. This was one of the best vacations we have ever taken. Robert and Tekla were wonderful. We stayed in # 5. We... More
