Maria is very responsive to any questions or concerns. Her home is beautiful, with modern decor. It has all the necessary amenities to make your stay comfortable. Her home is in a safe, quiet location. It is a short 5 minute walk from Abbott Kinney and about half a mile from Venice Beach boardwalk. The private parking space was also a plus, as it may be difficult to find street parking during the day. We will definitely stay at her home again the next time we visit Venice.
