Joe and Judy provided a great stay during our visit to Venice Beach. The space looked just liked the pictures and was very clean/cozy. The location was easily a minute's walk to the beach and the boardwalk. Venice Canals were a 5 minute walk away as well. In the apartment, Joe and Judy provided a list of local recommended spots for food and entertainment - which was very helpful since this was our first stay in Venice Beach. Santa Monica and Malibu are also within reasonable driving distance. If we had any questions - communication was super fast and easy. One tip, the LA area does get a bit chilly(and rainy) during the December - so layer up and be prepared! Overall we had a wonderful stay and would recommend to any guest looking for a lovely stay in Venice Beach!
