Daniel was the perfect host! As soon as we checked in, he called to make sure all was ok. We checked in on Mother's Day and upon our arrival there was a Mother's Day flower arrangement for me - nice touch! Everything about the house was perfect - peaceful, perfect getaway but still so close to Venice proper, comfortable. Loved the yard and shady decks. One day we came home exhausted and all took naps on 4 different patios/lounge chairs. It's a good house to spread out in! Everything was well explained so I didn't have any questions except for asking for good food delivery options. He responded immediately, even calling a local restaurant to check on delivery, and made several recommendations. The house is just as described, and Daniel as a host could not be better. On our checkout day we asked if we could pack our bags and leave them there a little after check out time, and Daniel was very accommodating.
