We stayed at the Craftsman Cottage for nearly three months and it was an absolute pleasure to be there. Could not recommend this place more highly. The photos, though truthful, do not quite give you the full impact of its charm. Also the hosts run the place impeccably, with constant and wonderful communication. The cottage is positioned perfectly for both the beach and the Abbot Kinney neighbourhood! If you want the best of everything venice has, on your doorstep, this is the place to stay.
