What a spot in Venice, CA. This place has it all -- updated furnishings, beds that feel like clouds, bikes to roam the boardwalk with, and seriously much more. It was so cool not having to carry around keys since the home is locked with a keyless system. The washer and dryer in the unit come in handy when you get back from the beach. The trash can is even motion-activated!

If we found the home itself hard to beat, the hospitality shown by Kevin goes above and beyond. He emailed us before we arrived to let us know with precise detail on all of the amenities of the house. As we walked in, the place was gorgeous -- the place had been cleaned up to be spotless, towels were hung with care, and there was even a binder for instructions on how to use every appliance in the house if we should need it. He even left complimentary cereal bars and OJ in the fridge for us to enjoy. As we were leaving, Kevin was open to suggestions to improve the place and we could tell that he meant it. He really wants his visitors to enjoy their stay and not have to worry about small things. What a great guy.

There is no doubt that I will be coming back to this home for my future visits to LA.
