Philipp's modern backyard loft is a special place indeed and would recommend it highly to others looking for a high quality place to stay near Venice and Marian Del Mar. The entire loft is newly constructed, very clean, modern detail and technology all in a great location on a quiet street. My favorite thing about my stay was feeling like I was in a modern treehouse, with the large windows and skylights filling the unit with great natural light and breezes.
