Best gift shop in Venice, Florida (FL) 2024

oh my gosh, I love this place. Best deals for Venice beach wear and the best flip flops. Okabashi they are made here in the US, Georgia actually. I needed new flip flops and the owner great gal recommended Okabashi, super comfortable with arch support. I wore them on a three mile beach trek never got any blisters and they are so comfortable, I went back for another pair today! Great off the beaten track, shop with anything you need to beach out in Venice. Must see! Owner is wonderful and so helpful. ~Tere

Not once I had the worst purchasing experience in the Artisans store in Venice when I was buying the Pandora charms for my bracelet. The saleswoman was unfriendly and cold with me. She never even said “hello” to me, ignoring me completely. Never reassembled the bracelet just like they usually do at Pandora store. Never mentioned that it was the final sale without a return or even exchange. I asked only to exchange one charm for $25 for the same price. She refused. I left the charm for her or the manager in the store shocked by this attitude and service so unusual in America. I come from Europe where the return policy is very limited, and I always praised the best shopping experience in the US. Not in the place like Artisans Venice with their unfriendly and unwelcoming staff. ~Ludmila
