This was a wonderful stay! I don’t know where to start. When we first got there we noticed how modern the house looked from the outside. Once we stepped in, there were decorations and style that added so much character to it. The pictures posted on the profile don’t do much justice because you really have to be there to see how much more amazing it was. The openness of the house enhanced the experience. It was full of surprises. The kitchen had everything we needed from cooking to snacks and adult beverages. The audio and visual system was advanced and suited our needs. The downstairs patio had a cool fire pit where we all relaxed and hung out with a drink in hand with s’mores in the other. The beds in the rooms were comfortable enough to sleep forever. The master bedroom was AMAZING - dual rain shower heads with a bathtub that had the water flow from the ceiling. Each bedroom had its own patio. We were able to do some laundry with the latest laundry machines. The rooftop patio had an amazing view of the unique neighborhood. The walk to the beach was 10-15 minutes, which is not bad at all. During the walk there were other beautiful homes to look at, so it was a sight just walking to the beach. Ray has been so helpful as a host. We have absolutely no complaints and are truly thankful what he has done and provided for us. We HIGHLY recommend this home to crash in. If we ever come back to Venice this home would be the top of our list to come back to.
