Ben's house in Culver city/Venice was a super easy place for travelers looking to enjoy Venice beach/Santa Monica and other beaches of LA. It's 5 mins to Venice Beach by car. We biked from Venice to Santa Monica and it was easy bike ride and must do! House was clean and beautifully decorated and comfortable for two couples and two toddlers. Close to so many restaurants and shops. It was very conveniently located. Costco, target, while food and other shopping within 10 min drive and some walking distance. Ben was very helpful with any questions asked and super quick. I'd highly recommend!!!
