Luiza and Jack were amazing hosts. We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived - as the first thing we noticed was an artistic, personalized welcome message on the chalk board. They are incredibly responsive and helpful; we needed some help plugging in our Fire Stick and Jack came and lifted the TV off of the mount for us. We also had issues with the toaster, and Luiza & Jack promptly ordered a new one for us (very kind!). The place is great if you're looking to be in the heart of Venice: about a 3 minute walk to the sand, and a 12 min walk to Abbot Kinney (restaurants, cafes, bars, shopping). We mainly walked around and didn't need the car for most spots within Venice. Also the beach right near the place is REALLY nice - soft sand, swimmable (I swam in Oct with no wet suit!), beautiful sunsets. Also great for running; you can run towards Santa Monica or towards Marina Del Rey (my favorite was running on the sand towards Marina Del Rey - you can go a couple miles and it's just open, beautiful beach the whole way). Only things to note: wifi was a little spotty at times (but we were able to do our work and be on Zoom calls for the most part); you can usually find parking right out front, but there's a 2 hour limit as well as street cleaning twice a week, and we did see the parking attendants come by from time to time (we were able to manage; think we only saw the guy come by twice in a few weeks, but just be careful as we did see people get tickets). Lastly, on location, just know that it is in a busy part of Venice; still quiet for the most part but a fair amount of foot traffic and louder crowds Fri and Sat nights. But we loved our stay.
