Days revolve around the heated outdoor pool and its spacious deck for easy lounging between beach runs and town time.

Debbie and Sean are excellent hosts. Very clean, very comfortable, very quiet. Pet friendly, which is awesome also. Great location also just a couple miles from downtown or the beach..
Loved Gizmo and Annie! What a little gem this place is! Rooms, property and pool were spotless. The hosts were wonderful too. They let us use beach screens to help with our shark tooth hunting. We really had a wonderful stay. Thank you,
It was fun location, next to restaurant and marina. We walked along the path towards the airport every day. We borrowed a sun umbrella for our trip to the beach.
The inn was not where we expected it to be, but lived up to the 10/10 rating. Very clean and well maintained property. Decor was themed by each room. Very close to area beaches and downtown shopping. We would definitely stay there again.
This property was clean and awesome. Well themed! Room was clean the air conditioner was cold! Front desk hosts were kind and friendly! Pool area was great! Nice location. Will be back again!
Great, quaint little hideaway with a pool and very friendly management. They allow for pets which allowed us to enjoy this tiki tropical stay with our miniature pincher.
This is my second time staying at Kon Tiki. Well priced, beds are comfortable, well stocked kitchenette and the pool is lovely. Only downside is the limited hours there is someone at the property. We checked in after 5 and needed to know what room we had. I called and was able to confirm our room number and where the key would be. I guess for me it is nice to have someone there to provide an in person welcome and assist with any questions. Not a reason to not stay here again, just some insight about personal touches.
This place was perfect for my short trip! Loved the location! Check in was quick and easy
Communication with the team was great.
Rooms are perfect and the pool is delicious! I’ll definitely be back!!!

This was our second time staying at the Kon Tiki Inn in Venice, Florida, and once again it was perfect. The king bed was comfortable, the kitchenette was convenient, and the room was spotless. The location couldn’t have been better—just minutes from the beach, great restaurants, and plenty of shops. A relaxing, easy, and enjoyable stay all around. I'd highly recommend the Kon Tiki Inn to anyone traveling to Venice, Florida.
We love this place. Kon Tiki is by far our favorite place to stay in Florida. The hotel is small in size but the rooms are huge. It’s is always super clean the staff is amazing.
The pool area is clean and the patio is awesome. We love to sit outside and watch the boats go by in the water.
I hate to rate this place so high because everyone will want to stay here and may make it harder for us to get a room. But I have to be honest, it is a great place to stay and I cannot recommend it enough.
Cute place with clean rooms and comfortable beds. Full sized fridge and freezer and k-cup machine in the small kitchenette was perfect. Kon Tiki is an ideal spot for a few days' stay not far from beaches. Didn't use the pool but it was clean and inviting.
Very clean room. Spacious and old school Florida vibes

This is an exceptionally clean, well decorated, well run, delightful hotel that offers great value for the money in a great location in Venice. Sean, the manager, is fantastic. Highly recommend this place. Really cannot beat it for the value and it is just really well decorated and renovated.
