“CLEANEST, FRIENDLIEST Inn ever stayed”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 13, 2013

The Inn is without a doubt the cleanest (spotless), comfortable and friendliest Inn (hotel) we have ever stayed. Great location walk across a non-busy street to the beach. Helpful staff who recommended good restaurants and places to see. The continental breakfast was excellent. I will always try to stay at the Inn whenever coming to Venice. Met a gentleman who has been coming to Venice every winter for 10 years with his wife and said that they stayed at the Inn for their first 5 years before they started renting a condo. Highly recommend this place.

“Clean room, comfortable bed, beautiful setting, loved our stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 8, 2013 via mobile

We were looking for a quiet, peaceful place to stay near the ocean and we found it at the Inn at the Beach. Our room was very clean, the bed was comfortable and our kitchenette had everything we needed. We loved the complimentary continental breakfast complete with fresh fruit, cereals, yogurt, pastries, bagels and English muffins. They also provide bottled water all day for their guests and free wifi. I am a picky hotel person and I love staying at Westins but this cute Inn is on my favorites list over any Westin I have stayed at. The pool and hot tub are very clean too. We rented bikes from a local bike shop and he delivered the bikes and helmets right to our hotel and the price was very reasonable. Venice is a cute walkable or bikeable town with a variety of shops and restaurants. Catholic Church is close by too. Staff was friendly and helpful. Enjoy!

“Wonderful stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2013

Found this Inn by accident first week of December 2012 and loved it. Had a room overlooking gulf ... comfortable bed, nice small sitting area, nice little kitchen area ... all more than ample for a week's stay. Found hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Only wish that at least one window opened so we could have fresh air in room without leaving door open, obviously would not go to sleep at night with door standing open!

“Excellent location and clean bright rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 3, 2013

This hotel is exactly what it says on the tin and more. The room was super clean and bright and looked like it had been decorated yesterday. We asked for a room overlooking the Gulf and the receptionist made sure we had exactly what we asked for with a private and secluded balcony and a lovely view of the beach. I was really impressed with the way the room was cleaned on a daily basis, with little extra touches (we are quite untidy on holiday), the room always looked pristine when we came back to it. Reception staff were efficient and polite. Walking distance to restaurants and bars so great location. All in all I would definitely come back here if I return to Venice, this is a great place.

Room Tip: Room 226 overlooks the gulf and is one of a few with private balcony

“Inn at the beach Venice Florida”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 29, 2012

Have stayed here few times in the past that is why we returned. Beautiful room and the most stunning location. The only thing was we did not find the reception staff very friendly at all and as this is your first port of call it was not indicative of the usual US reception staff. We thought that the girl on the reception could only have been a relation of the owner, I certainly would not have employed her. Bit like a doctors waiting room in the lobby when having our breakfast, very quiet and you were afraid to speak as it was so quiet.
