Luiza and Jack's place was fantastic! As hosts, they were quick to respond to our questions of the area with great tips and recommendations. Upon arrival, they left us a bottle of prosecco for my husband's 40th birthday and a beautiful chalkboard welcome sign, which felt so sweet and welcoming. Their space is cozy and the layout worked well for the three of us (six year old daughter included). We were steps from our favorite part of the beach (muscle beach and paddle tennis courts) towards the end of Venice, closer to Marina del Rey. There were two bikes left for use as described, and a fantastic organic taqueria, Tocaya, in spitting distance of the house. Parking is easy to find but requires alternating streets every two hours. One of our three nights there was a lot of noise from drunk passerbys, but it was over within a few minutes. Overall, I would highly recommend this place if you are 1-3 persons and hope to stay close to this particular area of Venice Beach.
