Kevin's rental is in the best spot possible for walking-minutes to the beach/pier and to the main strip, Abbott Kinney where all the coffee/juice joints, dining, and shopping one can partake in, ie Toms, Salt & Straw, Blue Bottle, Kogi truck (Saturday). The accommodation was exactly as pictured, very clean modern aesthetic that utilizes efficient space planning. He's got you covered for essentials too. The bed and shower were our faves; the bed was super comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure.
Even though I didn't meet Kevin, his check in/out process was easy breezy. As a host, he made sure to provide maps/guidebook of what's happening in Venice, so this was a plus for me. In my opinion, sometimes just by providing information through written documents is better well received than interpersonal communication.
Overall, I highly recommend Kevin and his rental. For sure, he's got a repeat customer with me.
