I needed a place to stay in Venice/Marina Del Rey area at the last minute and after looking at a bunch of places, I choose Thomasinas bungalow! I'm so glad I did. It's 20 steps from the beach, cozy, and ideally locatated It's a little bit older of a building, but overall was perfect and just what I was looking for. I grew up near the beach and this felt like I was staying at my aunts house. There is a cozy living room area and a screen door on the front door, so on warmer days you can open the door and let the air in. The tub is nice and big, perfect for an evening soak. The back door in the bathroom also opens and creates an amazing breeze. The neighbors in the other bungalows are full time residents and are so nice, they even invited me over to enjoy a little afternoon gathering with them. I will definitely be staying here again. Thomasina is one of the sweetest people I have ever talked to, she made sure I had everything I needed and was always available by phone or email. I feel so lucky to have chosen such a cozy home with a nice owner.
