Denise terms her home, a Venice Sanctuary, which is very accurate. It is a beautiful Spanish style home, extremely comfortable for our family of five for five nights. It was very peaceful with the enclosed front garden to relax in. The unique furnishings and musical instruments were an unexpected plus. Denise was very welcoming and flexible in our arrangements and offered us fresh tomatoes, figs, and lemons from her garden. The neighborhood is very safe with nearby shops and restaurants, and within walking distance of the beach.
