A great find, a fantastic location with awesome hosts.
Pros:

From the first moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome. Banyan House is a beautiful property that has been skilfully modelled into a great B&B in an excellent location for both the beach and downtown Venice. The facilities were excellent and everything had been thought of, right down to the sifters for shark tooth hunting on the beach. (great fun) Rosie and Bret were great hosts and Odi and Ozzie were both full of knowledge and warmth throughout our stay. All in all, a fantastic few days away and we’ll be sure to re-visit when we’re next in the area.

Pros:

The owners were very nice, and the place is amazing — especially the pool. We’ll definitely be back!

Tropical Haven
Pros:

Everything was as we expected, Banyan House was so special. From the minute we arrived we were greeted with warmth and it did not falter. The way we were not just shown straiggt to our room, but around the whole property, from the games room to the outdoor facilities, bbq to bicycles and more, we used the beach chairs, the shovels to find sharks teeth, the bikes to go to nearby beaches and the washing machine to wash some of our clothes. The thoughtfulness towards its visitors included beach towels, sunscreen, newspapers and welcone packs. We sat around the garden area at the back of the house which was just an idyllic place to relax and be peaceful, we fed the carp and watched the squirrels after a swim in the very adequate size pool for the property! Breakfast was plentiful with homecooked biscuits and muffins, with cheeses, meats and yoghurt with fresh coffee and juices. A tropical paradise in a convenient location, we were sad to leave after an amazing 2 night stay. A very special thank you needs to go out to both Odi & Ozzie who were wonderful, more than helpful with anything we needed including recommendations for the area and enthusiasm about the property itself sharing the history. Stay here if you want something a little different than your usual b&b ❤️

Cons:

The hot tub was cold on the first day and we were told it would be switched on but again the second day we went to use and it was still cold.
