This is an amazing house in a perfect location. Our group was made up of five adult males and we had more than enough space to live, eat, sleep, and enjoy ourselves! The place was spotless and the hosts were wonderful. We used the bikes to pedal around town, along the beach bike path, and up to Santa Monica. We took the paddle boat and canoe for a spin through the canals. Definitely take advantage of both! The guest welcome book had all the information you could ask for regarding how things work at the house, and great tips for the surrounding area. The location with ideal, and LA is not far if you want to go into the city to see the sights there. I would recommend this house to anyone looking to have a memorable time in Venice, Santa Monica, and LA!
