We had a wonderful week long stay in this unit during a family vacation with our sons aged 9 and 11. First, the directions Lauren provides on getting into the unit are perfect and in fact so simple that I thought maybe I was missing something. We were able to get in to the unit right away and start our vacation immediately without any hassle. The unit was very clean and really well organized for travelers – it had lots of counters and drawers so it was easy to unpack and stay organized. The TV room is hip, comfy and spacious and bedrooms/beds were comfortable as well. And having two full bathrooms was really nice so we didn’t have to share a bathroom with the kids. The hosts have thought of every convenience you could want; there is even a bottle opener attached to the table on the cute patio area right in front of the unit! We were traveling from the East coast and had to travel light, so it was very helpful to just be able to use the beach chairs and beach towels provided. The parking spot is right behind the unit, and we liked the security of the gate that closed behind the car. The wi-fi was a little spotty at times, likely because we have a lot of devices tapping the signal at the same time. We found the location to be perfect. You can walk out of the unit, look left, and see the beach just a block away and it is in a residential area that is quiet at night. But just 5-8 minute walk and you are in the middle of all the entertainment that Venice walk provides. There are Lime and Bird scooters everywhere and Uber/Lyft are readily available as well so no need to bring a car if you prefer not to. Our sons had a blast taking in all the sights and street performers on Venice walk. They even went in the ocean to collect shells even though it was really cold, and then we watched the sunset over the ocean. Overall, a great trip!
