We are a family of four, including two small kids. We wanted a comfortable, quiet place to park the car, rest, cook a simple breakfast, and walk to Venice Beach. The house was perfect for our needs: I couldn't believe how peaceful it was, yet very close to some of the best places in Venice. The beds were comfortable and the house stocked with all the essentials. We had a bit of a central heating issue but our host provided portable electric heaters that kept the house warm and cosy. The garage is for a small car so if you are renting one for your vacation, make sure to rent a compact. I appreciated how quick our host was to respond to our question via the Airbnb messaging app. We recommend the spot to everyone who wants to feel a genuine Venice vibe and local experience.
