Lavender Beach House is a lovely little renovated Venice bungalow only a few short blocks from the boardwalk. It is a visual treat-- for its color, contemporary curved wall and glass block accents-- Kendell has wonderfully eclectic taste, from kilim woven textiles to vintage mid-century Eames furniture. The second bedroom is small but has a built in bed that makes you feel a bit like you're sleeping at the prow of a ship. All of the towels, bedding, etc. are comfortable and inviting-- I slept really well there ( and I am prone to insomnia, especially traveling, so that is saying a lot). The Nespresso maker is a nice touch -- we had a wonderful stay, our best Airbnb experience yet!
