Bonita Mar Vista is fantastic, and Thereza is a warm and thoughtful host. Along with the sweet dog Zico, and lush, relaxing outdoor spaces to sit, it feels like a tropical retreat, with all the amenities and close to all the cool places in Mar Vista, Venice, and beaches nearby. I was there for work, but felt like I was on vacation. The house and grounds are SUPER-sparkling clean, tidy and uncluttered, while still feeling homey and comfortable. The decor is tropical, global, with lovely taste in linens and decoration. The Bonita has its own little vine covered patio with lanterns and string lights for a relaxing night and cool sanctuary during the day. There is a hammock and plenty of seating to soak in the sun on the grounds as well. The house has everything needed - just the right amount of kitchen area, including a sleek hotplate, microwave, and dishes and pots, and perfect size refrigerator. Good water pressure in the shower, and very comfortable mattress. Perfection!
