We really enjoyed staying at the Venice Beach property. The location is excellent if you like to walk. Easy to get to the beach and board walk, close to Abbot Kinney, seven minute walk to Whole Foods. We ended up thinking the location is perfect if you want access to all of Venice, not just Abbot Kinney or the beach/boardwalk. The house itself has everything you need, but isn’t dressed up with lots of stylish details. It’s totally functional and straightforward, but we found it comfortable, private and easy, and the hosts very helpful.
