About Amy McDermott, Owner/Manager

My husband and I met in near-by Longboat Key Florida years ago. We now live in the Northeast where he grew up and we always wanted a warm-weather vacation house to escape to. We discovered the ultra-charming Venice Island area - one of the best kept secrets in vacation destinations! Now we have many family & friends hooked on Venice Island's unique appeal.

Amy McDermott, Owner/Manager purchased this house in 2005
Why Amy McDermott, Owner/Manager chose Venice

location, location, location! We are beach people and we can stroll to the Gulf of Mexico, Fishing Pier & popular Sharky's Tiki Bar/restaurant in under 5 minutes! Or we can take a longer walk to the Historic district with charming shops, restaurants & amazing ice cream. The library, new Community Center & Art Center are all on our street and we can drop in these great places as we head to Venice Avenue. We have a son and daughter who love to run through the children's fountain on Venice Ave. & enjoy finding pre-historic sharks teeth for everyone in their class! Not to mention a passion for boogie boarding in the Gulf of Mexico.

What makes this house unique

We have carefully renovated this Venice Island house so that it is very inviting, and not like a typical rental place. We think you will feel right at home! The central Island location has beeen great for our family and guests. We love how the new private pool turned out with the multiple fountains water feature, massage therapy jets in swimout, cool Cancun Blue water color & we think you will love it too. We treat our guests like family! We are proud that many guests come back each year as their family tradition.

We so enjoyed our Venice vacation and the house was very well furnished. We had a number of relatives visit us while here and they all thought the house to be the perfect vacation spot. LOVED sharky's and the beach was absolutely beautiful & not crowded at all. Had fun shopping on Venice Ave and getting ice cream for the kids. It is nice that there are hardly any chain stores in Venice and no high rise buildings. Really felt like an old-fashion beach vacation. Only suggestion is to replace the beach umbrella pretty soon - everything else in good condition. thank you again, Jill & Michael

Hi McDermott Family, Just wanted to thank you for
sharing your vacation house with our family - we enjoyed it very
much and hope to return in the future if we can coordinate with everyone's schedules! Please tell your handyman there are 1 or 2 lightbulbs out - we would have replaced but couldn't find the extras. Everything else though was fantastic. The location was so convenient for us! Your beach is so nice & the little cousins loved splashing in the tidal pools - we all enjoyed the music at Sharky's and the amazing sunsets:). This was just the escape we needed from our hectic jobs. You've thought of every little detail to make it all fun & relaxing for us.
best,
Samantha, Jack, Allie, Savannah & Jordie (and Grams & Gramps!)

Hello McDermott Family,
Thanks so much for sharing your charming vacation home with us - we enjoyed it so much. Felt like home - only better - with the new granite kitchen! The neighborhood was so quiet - we slept great, yet were able to walk to so many things to do. I liked the little breakfast diner around the corner and the kids LOVED sharky's. Met some of the neighbors - really nice and made us feel so welcome. We hope to make this an annual event:). Molly, Ted, Teddy, and Savannah Clarke

Dear Amy & Frank McDermott,
We had such a great trip. House was perfect - plenty of space for two families. Location was soooo convenient to everything. Walked to beach every morning, walked to beautiful new community center for art classes, walked to the library, and loved walking to the palm-tree lined downtown area to get coffee and window shop:). Our favorite thing to do was walk to Sharky's almost every night for live music and sunset watching - the Fishing Pier was a big hit with us too. We'll be back soon. Thanks again and again and again:). - Murphy and O'Brien families.
