A great hidden treasure
My daughter and I stayed here for 2 nights. The husband and wife that run the place are amazing. They are friendly amd make you feel qelcomed right away. They also have beach stuff you can use if you dis not have any which is a nice touch as well. Our room was clean and had everything we needed including plates, pots and pans because there is a 2 burner stove in the room. The kon Tiki Inn sits out of the way and you would never know it is there but it sure is a cute treasure to know about.

Owners thought of lots of little details like scissors in cutlery drawer, filled ice cube trays in freezer, and beach umbrellas, sifters (for finding shark teeth at nearby beaches), beach chairs, etc all free to borrow for the day!

This is a wonderul "Old Florida" inn. Each room is a seperate cottage with a kitchenette and a spacious bathroom. Sean was a great host with knowledge of the area and was readily available if anything was needed. Pet friendly and located on the intercoastal. We had an exceptional experience and will definitely return.

Weekend at the beach!
We had a great time at the Kon Tiki Motel. The owner checked us in and he was very friendly and respectful. We loved our room! Only a few things to mention: The room did not have an iron and ironing board. The shower curtain was very worn and should be replaced. Last, we lost power the morning we were checking out which makes it hard to pack. The owner was on it though and apologized for the inconvenience. Aside from these minor details we loved the quiet, the pool was right outside the room, and we jumped in as soon as we could. We will definitely be back!

Super great and nice
We travel quite a bit and have stayed in lots of places but this was one of the nicest places we have stayed. The owner's were very polite and helpful. They made sure everything worked in our room. Room was super clean and comfy. My wife and I fished the canal next to our room and caught a few catfish. Our daughter and us enjoyed the pool. Plus Mrs. Debbie offered us a free Mai Tai that sounded nice but we passed this time. Debbie also gave us 3 tickets to Busch Gardens that she wasn't able to use herself which we were shocked that someone would offer such a deal. Thank you very much Mrs Debbie we can't wait for our next trip to Venice we will definitely be staying at your place again and this time we are staying longer and will definitely take the Mai Tai

Sean and Debbie were amazing hosts. They were always available and updated the property nicely. Little details from lighting, to plants and tiki landscaping to the small touches in the rooms- it made the stay even better! Every room was clean and uniquely themed. The pool area was great and spacious with views of the canal with drawbridge and airport. They have a cute little putt putt area and beach equipment available. Located just minutes from eateries and shops, local beaches and downtown Venice. We are so glad we found it here and can’t wait to book again! It felt like we were staying with family as they welcomed us and our kids immediately and it felt like we had know them for years. Thanks for being so accommodating and making our trip a great one. Hope to see you again soon!!
