Only a 5 min walk to the beach, if that, where there is a lot to do. We rented bikes on venice beach and cycled down the promenade, visited marina del rey for 4th July fireworks, and ate at lovely eateries, such as the vegan deli which is 15 min walk. The airbnb itself has a lovely back garden to relax in and the front garden is filled with vibrant plants. The interior is very clean, no clutter & feels very bright & welcoming. The host was very good at communicating and addressed any concerns. Loved this Airbnb, wish we could have stayed longer, but it was too much for our budget.
