I am chemically sensitive, and it is hard for me to stay in hotels. Most use air fresheners and strong chemicals. When I called to book, the girl who booked me was very accommodating and understood my needs. They do not routinely use air fresheners and they were willing to air out the room. A few minutes later, she called... More

Close to the main road, Walgreens and Venice center. Rooms are small but with a home touch. We stayed there for 2 nights and had a great time. Very friendly staff. Would recommend this motel, but don`t expect world class. Expect hospitality and laid back atmosphere. I`ll be back.

An old hotel whose sign noted that the hotel was celebrating its 60th year at the end of 2011 was a pleasant enough stay for a night. I did stop in for the night at this hotel having read the review from the 4th edition of the Lonely Planet: Florida travel book. Now, this volume does state that there is... More

We only stayed one night, but the price was the best in town and we only wanted a bed to sleep on. We had a King Room with a king bed that was very comfortable. The room was Florida block with paint on it, but adequate. The ceiling was wooden and had a nice varnish on it. The room was... More

I guess this is what motels looked like in the 50'ies? Rather run down and old fashioned. Some would propably find excactly that very charming. We arrived very late and the lady had been very helpful about making sure we could get our room after the desk closed. Points for that. The pool area was bizarre in an extremely kitchy... More

This place had some appeal, taking the traveler back to the days of small, independent motels. We requested a room that would accommodate 3 adults, and the room we were given was very small, the bathroom even smaller. The location was great, the price was better than most in the Venice area. I don't know that i would recommend this... More

I have stayed here 3-4 times over the past 3 years. All the good things people have said are true -- very friendly, comfortable 'old Florida' charm, etc. Some points to make: 1. Very reasonable rates off season, but high season, you'd be better off renting a small condo for a little more money. 2. Easy walk to downtown, but... More

We choose the Island Breeze because of the reviews and the photos online. So, happy we weren't disappointed!! As soon as we came up to the place my husband and I were happy and excited to see that it backed up what the reviews stated and the photos. The place is awesome.....our room was so nice, clean and smelled great!... More

This hotel is a great value! The room was spotless and smelled great (a VERY important feature for us). The staff takes alot of pride in maintaining the property. Everyone is extremely friendly. We opted for a king efficiency which has a fridge, microwave, toaster & coffee maker. They even have real dishes and cutlery. We came to Venice for... More
