Rachel's place made for a brilliant stay in Venice Beach and we will be back again for sure. It actually feels a lot more spacious than the photos show as it has high ceilings and separate living areas so it was perfect for two of us without getting on each other's toes! Before arriving, we were a bit worried about staying in Venice as other non-AirBnB travellers had told us Venice Beach is dirty but we found this was only the case in a small part of the touristy beach section and Rachel's place was in such a pretty area with shops and cafes close by and only a 10min ride on the bikes to the beach. Would highly recommend!
