I can wholeheartedly recommend staying in Kristina's and Robert's lovely house! We stayed for ten days, and because of rainy weather ended up spending more time inside than planned, so we were super happy to have this enchanted place. I was traveling with a friend, so we were in the luxurious situation of each having our own room, but I think this would still work well for a group of friends, and especially a family. The hens had just started laying eggs again, and so we had the best eggs every morning for breakfast - and I enjoyed very much cooking on this wonderful old gas stove. We also loved that there were salt, spices, oil etc. and other foods available from previous travelers, so it was more fun cooking. There is also a nice small table for breakfast out on the porch - and a BBQ in the yard. The location is also just perfect. It is super quiet, as there is no street in front of the house, but you can also walk or bike to the busy Abott Kinney area or the beach in less than 15 minutes - and it is a beautiful walk. I ended up enjoying this walk even more than the Venice Boardwalk...
