Courtyards at Gondola Park is a maintenance-free mid-rise condominium community in Venice, in Sarasota County, built in the mid-2000s. It is the elevator-building portion of the larger Gondola Park development, which also includes a townhome-style section, and it sits inland off Capri Isles Boulevard near East Venice Avenue (neighborhood and brokerage guides, 2026).
The Courtyards buildings are four-story, Venetian-themed condos with elevator access and under-building parking, a layout aimed at low-maintenance, lock-and-leave living. The community shares Gondola Park amenities including a clubhouse, heated pool, fitness space, and tennis, set against the development's lakes (brokerage community guides, 2026).
Because the value here is a condo unit rather than a lot, the money is made or lost on the building, the floor, the view, and the financial health of the condo association, not on a headline price. The four-story buildings fall under Florida's condo safety laws, so reserves and any milestone inspection or structural integrity reserve study are central to the read.
The pitch is maintenance-free living in an established inland Venice setting with easy access to historic Venice, the island beaches, and Interstate 75. The work is confirming the association budget, reserves, and any assessments, plus the fee, the rental rules, and the flood and insurance picture, before you decide a specific unit is the right buy.
